rockets - take 1

Nathan has been very interested in rockets and space lately. For his birthday, he got several rockets. The next weekend, we took a couple hours to go out and use them. Boy did Nathan have fun! (So did the rest of us...except Caroline didn't like the sound of the "real" rocket.) This is the first of several posts about the day's fun. These pictures are from multiple launches, but I put them in order of the process.
