Today we went to the air show! It was so much fun. We got to see the Thunderbirds perform. They are a group of air force pilots that perform in jet airplanes and make formations in the sky. They were absolutely beautiful. I am not one to think things like airplanes are beautiful, but the things these planes could do were absolutely amazing and they were just beautiful. My grandma and I kept saying that they simply own the sky.
It ended up taking us about 45 minutes just to get into the airport and parked because there were so many people. But once we got out there we had great seats and a great view. It was very fun. After the show was over we walked over to military planes they had on the ground and walked through some of the HUGE cargo planes. Those are amazing! They are so big! It's hard to believe that something like that can get up in the air. After that we headed home because we were all tired and very hungry. We barbecued for dinner and sat outside enjoying the evening. I also made the hat for my great grandma. It is so much fun! It's big and puffy and beautiful! :)
I noticed this evening when we were sitting outside waiting for the food to cook that the tops of my legs were sunburned! Oh well, that's what happens when you go to an air show.
Well it's late again and I am sooo tired from our day in the sun. Oh and in case you are wondering about the pictures, I totally forgot my camera. We were in line at the airport for about 20 minutes when I remembered it and there was no turning back. I was pretty frustrated with myself. Not sure what I was thinking!
Feeling that makes me feel good for the day: The warmth of the sun on your skin on a cool day.
