It was my husband Dennis' 25th birthday in October two years ago and I told him that I had special plans for him. I told him we were going to go to a park outside of a nearby town that we had gone to while dating. On the way to the park I said I had changed my mind. I told him where to turn and we ended up at a small airport where a man I knew was waiting to take my sweetheart and I for a plane ride.

The leaves on the trees were changing to beautiful colors and we flew over the 28 acres of our new home. He was so surprised. Other family members that had known ahead of time had gone out on their lawns to wave at us as we flew over their homes also. It was so special and a time we'll never forget.
