Airshow!

This past weekend we went to our local airshow!  It was a lot of fun, although very hot!  We all enjoyed watching the different planes flying and looking at the planes parked at the show.  We even got a bit of excersise in, we had to walk almost a mile from the parking area to the airshow (and back again at the end of the day)!

Our first stop was an army helicopter, Mark thought it was fascinating to see the difference between helicopter controls and plane controls. 


The babies stayed in the stroller for most of the day, but that didn't keep them from getting to see everything!


Here we have a "flying car"!  We didn't get to see it fly but it was so cool to see it in person!




A nice shot of the family (except me of course ;-))!


Mark enjoyed seeing this Piper Cub and comparing sizes with his model.  :-)


3 WWII fighters, flying in formation.


We had a good seat, right by the fence!  The boys took advantage of our good view!




Our last stop for the day was this small Cessna, similar to the one that Mark took his first flying lessons in.


By the end of the day we were all beat, sunburned, hungry, (no food allowed unless bought there), and tired.  But lots of good memories were made (we hope) for the kids!
