Little helicopter, BIG reaction

This gift caused such a huge reaction out of the kids that it gets a post all its own!! For many many months Mason has seen commercials for remote control airplanes and helicopters and always is asking me if he can have one of those.

Hidy and Gigi got a helicopter for him and Brian. It was for both of them because it is actually pretty complicated to fly.
Mason and Maya's reaction as the rotors start to spin fast.
And then as it lifts off the floor the kids are also jumping off the floor - and screaming with delight.

It was dark by the time we had the helicopter charged. That is why we were trying it indoors. But we quickly found it was too powerful for indoors and moved outside in the dark. It was later in the week when some really good flying took place in daylight.
