Birthday Surprise of Seattle

For Brennen's birthday,dear friends of ours, Alex and Caillou Pena took Brennen to Seattle, Washington. Dallin and Josh have had this opportunity in the past few years and Brennen had always dreamed it would someday be him.

They don't let just anyone do this anymore.
Alex worked there many years and I'm not sure how he made this dream come true for Brennen but he is amazing!
Brennen has always loved planes and never had a ride in one until now.
His dream is to be a pilot of some sort.

On Monday, Oct. 6th, Caillou Pena brought a card for Brennen's birthday that said he had a free ticket to Seattle.


He had no idea it meant he left the next day!



What an incredible birthday present and an amazing day full of memories! They left at 4:15am and returned after 11pm. Brennen was so exhausted he had to wait until the next day to talk about it.

how fun for Brennen! I am jealous. We never had such connections growing up. Remind them that the only fun we had growing up was fun that we created ourselves. No TV, no airplanes, no one day trips to Seattle, no video games. Lucky kids!
