Blue Angels

I braved going to watch the Blue Angels with the kids as Scott had to work that day. We took my niece, Kenzie, to help with the kiddos. She was a HUGE help! It was VERY hot outside. 90 degrees and not a lot of shade. Allie and Kara had their first bus ride and they really enjoyed it! We went with about 10 other families and had a wonderful experience!

We got to go to the hydropits and tour the area. Their were lots of hydroplanes and we got to watch them practice. We also met a lot of the drivers who were nice enough to sign autographs and get their pics taken with the kids. The kids even got to sit in a hydroplane, although the girls decided they just wanted to stand up next to it :)

After the tour we went by the water and ate lunch. We had to walk a little ways to get to the benches and with the heat the girls were done walking!! Two of our guides carried Allie and Kara on their shoulders. They weren't too sure at first then the girls were smiling and having a great time! It was a beautiful day and the kids did great. Their were clowns making balloon animals for the kids while we waited. After awhile we got to watch the the Blue Angels practice... It was absolutely AMAZING!! A day we will never forget!
