we went to an air show a couple of weekends ago. the blue angels were the last exhibition for the day. the last time we had seen them was when we lived in seattle and had no kids at home yet (i was pregnant). i seem to relate that year and a half when pat and i had no children to our "single" time. marriage changes life, but kids really mix it up! anyway, pat and i joked that we need to see the blue angels every 11 years. don't know where we'll be in 2018, but i'll guess we'll be seeking out an air show. hopefully it will be another beautiful, clear day like this one was. we just had a fabulous time (minus the traffic - it took us 2 hours to go the last 10 miles - i exaggerate NOT!!) as usual, the blue angels were amazing. i didn't capture it on film, but i especially loved when they would fly right at each other from opposing directions and then flip to the side right when they intersected. (hopefully that made sense).
lily and evan crashed right before the blue angels performed. evan loved looking at the planes as well as lily and grace. jake would cry when a really loud engine roared by. we tried to cover his ears, but that didn't do much. next time, we'll have to remember ear plugs for him.
here i am holding jake in his new jogging stroller. the stroller is so big that it holds up to 200 lbs.

Hey... we were at the airshow,too! I wonder why we didn't see you. Were you in the Commander's Tent? It was a perfect day for it! I'd never been to an airshow before and was very impressed. The Raptor rocked and the Blue Angels were... wow and that truck with the jet engines... whoa! Who knew I would like all that stuff as much as I did?
