Yesterday our base held its biennial Air Show. This is the first time we have ever been to one! I know we have been in the military for 6 years and this is the first time....LOL. The base was open to the general public so it was very busy. They estimated over 70,000 people to attend. It was pretty cool, Myllie & Ethan had a blast! Scott was asked to stand with a display of different bombs that he works with and answer any questions the public might have. I am proud of him, he's so smart...LOL :-) It was a very long day, & we spent way too much time in the sun. It was a fun day, our last Military Event.....Wow time is going by so fast!! Here are some of the pictures I took. They don't do the Air Show justice however it was awesome to watch what these planes/jets could do. The famous Thunderbirds also did a short performance. Very very cool!!!
Enjoy the pictures!!
Scott, Myllie & Ethan with the Predator.
An F-18 Jet

This plane was doing some awesome acrobatic loops.




These are pictures of Scott, Myllie & Ethan with the GBU-15 Bomb and an F-15 Jet behind them.


Myllie & Ethan with the GBU-12 Bomb. They got some special treatment cause Daddy was working.... :-)

These are some of the different bombs Scott works with.

My very Hot Hubby!! He looks good in uniform.......Grrr ;-)

Myllie & Ethan with what I believe is the Apache Helicopter (not sure though)



This is the C-17. Myllie and Ethan were trying to give it a little push....LOL


These are the Thunderbirds. They are pretty cool. There were 7 F-16 jets in all. It was amazing to see what they could do. The way they can fly in unison and come so close to colliding with eachother head on. I held my breath a few times....LOL



Sorry for the endless pictures, I wont even tell you how many more I have.....LOL We had alot of fun, the kids were so tired that they both needed to sit in the stroller.

They are so cute and really funny. Every time Ethan would see a jet fly over head he would say "Mommy whook...Mommy whook" and point in the air. So cute!! Myllie liked to ask endless questions about the planes/jets that I couldn't answer. In spite of the sun we had a fun day!!

Sounds like you guys had an amazing weekend.
WOW..It looks like you kids had a pretty fun day. I wish we could have been there with ya. Fun pictures of Scott and the kids.
Very Cute Pics! That would be fun to go to something like that. I love watching the air shows in Vegas at Nellis Air Force Base. But would love to actually see some of the planes up close like that.
