STS-134

We got up and left the house super early this morning, because we had tickets to the shuttle launch. We were at Kennedy Space Center by 5:40am. For those that don't know, the roads close 2hrs prior to the launch. Today's was scheduled for 8:50am so that meant we had to be there no later than 6:50.




Liam was so excited to see the spaceship. He kept saying "spaceship. yeah. spaceship". I started to get really nervous about an hour before as the clouds started to roll in and they sent the weather plane up to look at the scenario. But we were go for launch. Here is our video of the shuttle for the 8 sec before it disappears behind the clouds.
The best part about having the tickets to KSC was that after the shuttle went off, we got to spend the day there and not sit in traffic for 3hrs. Liam loved the rockets. Here's Liam and Daddy in the Rocket Garden looking up.

Little man was so tired he didn't even make it out of the parking lot. Here he is with his new bear.
