Guess Where We Went Over The Weekend?

Luke Air Force Base Air Show!
Every other year, this event is a must-go-to. All other plans get scrapped to walk what seems like 10 miles around these new and old airplanes, helicopters, and jets, with some of the pilots standing near them to answer questions.
But it's really interesting to see these planes up close.

My personal favorite!
It's a bullet holder on the side of the plane with people walking behind it!

Aren't they cute planes?

The Thunderbirds flew in their formation all over the sky....it was great as an ending to the air show.

Oh, how fun ! We have an air show here every year too. The Blue Angels always perform and it's awesome. One year, they had a Stealth Bomber do a flyover at the beach as part of the show...Wowee, that was fabulous...you never forget the feeling when one of those birds does a pass within a few hundred feet off the ground !

We had fun taking our kids to the air show a year or so ago. It made it even more fun because my husband's cousin got to fly in and be one of the pilots standing next to his plane. :) Looks like you had a good time!

It was alot of fun. glad that we were able to go. Even though when some of them were so loud the kids got scared it was super fun! ALOT of walking but all worth it to see all of the planes and the show! Cant wait till next year or so.
