These are not the Blue Angels, just some preliminary planes, but I forgot to get my camera out for the Blue Angels - they were SO FAST!!!!
My own little "airplanes"!!!!
This weekend, the Blue Angels were in town - we did not venture out to the airport with the other 150,000 people, but we did got to a park NEAR the airport and enjoyed the fast and loud planes along with a MAGNIFICENT spring day and friends and family! And thank goodness we DID NOT go to the airport....from the reports from people who went in Sunday School this morning - unless you had a special parking pass, you had to park about 10 - 15 miles away and take a shuttle (aka school bus) to the airport. Apparently when it was over, it took most people 3 hours to get to their cars...and those who HAD their cars, it took 1.5 hours to get home - 10 miles away!!!!! The children had fun and we had a GREAT view!!!!!
The GANG!!!!! (minus me, aka photographer)
After spending 3 hours at the park, yes we were about cooked, we picked up some tacos from Taco Casa (YUM!!!) and some TCBY and headed to Nana's house (aka Will and Ellen's mom), we ate dinner and the children played another 2 and a half hours outside!!!! On the way home I told Ellen that this had been just about the most perfect day - I started the day with a tennis match, had some free hours at home with all the family and then had a peaceful and fun time outside with all my children and SIL and MIL, while Will enjoyed some time on the golf course.
The "big girls" teaching the "little big girl" some cheers!!!!
Doing the "funky chicken"!!!
I hope your Saturday was just as fun - now we're stuck in doors while it's raining and "yuck" outside and bracing for this silly cold front to come through. Good news is, we are going to our church's Palm Sunday Easter Program and Communion tonight - I can't wait!!!!!
