Today we went back over to the Air Force Base to see the Thunderbird Museum. We got a call telling us to meet in the parking lot and to look up. A few minutes later Julie's boyfriend Ben and his crew flew right over us. The boys LOVE the Blackhawk helicopter so they thought that was the coolest part of the day! I have to admit... it was pretty awesome. They were really low and Ben was hanging out the window to wave to us and the little boys!
We then went into the museum and saw the all the stuff on the Thunderbirds! I have been a little obsessed since the air show. It was tight. They had pictures of the pilots clear back to 1970 or earlier. When we were leaving they gave us posters, stickers, and activity books for the kids. We went and took Rhett lunch a couple days ago and got to see the Thunderbirds out practicing. I seriously could watch them all day everyday. I am just so in awe at all the stunts they perform.
The total bummer about the day was that I forgot to bring my camera. :( So these pictures are from the air show, but you get the point. We will try to get a picture of Ben and the Blackhawk another day!
