JAX Air Show

HI ALL! So last weekend, Sis Tina came down for her son's fall break to be with her husband, who is working with my husband. It was so nice to have someone familiar here. We went to dinner a couple times and spent time together here at the house. And then Sunday, the Jacksonville Navy base had a huge air show! So we all went there. *Just a bit of personally info...my husband was stationed at this Navy base years ago so it was significant to him, and my 12 year old wants to be a pilot someday-LOVES planes-so it was super cool to him, and I LOVE opportunities to pull out the camera-so it was GREAT for me too! ;) *'




There was some pretty cool things happening, like this lady, she's a "wing walker"--crazy if you as me..lol..Can you see her on top there? she unhooked herself and moved around the wings and stuff!





And these parachuters hooked together! I was so afraid they would get all tangled!







And then the touching tributes and fly-by's in honor of our service men through the years and still currently...i cried a couple times.. I'm a bit of a softy...






And it closed with a very long demonstration by the blue angels. A family favorite. We try to go to air shows every year. Love visits from the Blue Angels.


So..it was a great day and a great weekend! I needed it more than I even realized. I'm thankful to God for the beautiful weather we had and the safe trip for a sister and her son.

I think I would run the other way away from an Air Show! It would scare me to be under all those planes which could come down and get me! Love you... glad to get to share a part of your life!
