I was soooo excited that there was going to be a Blue Angel Air Show at NAS Oceana on Saturday. I used to go to their air shows just about every year when I lived in Pensacola, FL and I loved it. I knew the young ones could not make a full day venture out so we decided to leave early (or so we thought) enough to let the kids see some stuff but not to long for the little ones. Unfortunately, "G" got pretty sick on his retreat this past week (that didn't stop his fun there though!! He came home one tired out but thrilled kiddo) and really needed to stay home with grandma and rest. Well, a 25 minute trip or so to the base took about 2 hours and 15 minutes!! The cool part was some how we ended up in just about the best spot you could be! We only got to see a few manuevers and then the weather caused the show to get cancelled. We still had a really fun time hanging out as a family and getting to see the little we did. J could tell about seeing the airplanes and what they sounded like.:-) I am glad we went. Also, we figured out how we would do it differently another year.
There are some clips below of the show and then after the show got cancelled we got a fly by of the cutest angel of all (see below)!:-)

Nice and cozy and DRY!

Babe took turns holding the girls outside watching the lines of cars go down.
The girls LOVED it!!
