The last NOLA Navy Week was a few years ago, and I can’t say it went all that well (with the boys) but this year, we went on a tour of a huge ship, and they had a blast.

It helped that Ethan and his parents came with us, along with some other friends. The boys were in heaven, climbing in and out of every kind of military vehicle imaginable.

Some pictures from the day:

On the way to the USS Wasp:

With Daddy right before getting on:

In and around and on and under various vehicles around the ship, and wearing a helmet (remind me to shave the boys’ heads ASAP):

Details of the ship:

My favorite part, when they got to sit in a tank. It was probably the cutest thing ever.

Their favorite part, though, was firing this giant gun.

A rare picture of me and the boys!

Until next time, Navy!
