Aviation Nation

Well, it’s taken me over a week to get this posted – I wish I had the time to post to the blog everyday, but my life just seems to get too hectic!!  We went last Sunday with Kurt and Elena and their family to Nellis Air Force Base to see the annual Veteran’s Day Air Show they have.  We were lucky enough to be able to park right on Base (thanks to some awesome friends!) – directly across from where the Air Show took place.  Since I heard that the buses back and forth to the public parking lots were crazy, I was very thankful for this!!  The kids all enjoyed the show, and so did I.  The planes flying were amazing!!  Especially the F-22 – Raptor – man, that plane is amazing!!  I have a hard time believing that thing can maneuver like it can.  Then we got to see the Thunderbirds fly also.  Those guys are awesome.  It’s really cool to see how synchronized they are.  I took a lot of pictures and some video also – click to see the photo album (it’s on Facebook, so if you’re not a friend, you won’t be able to see it), and check back soon for a link to the video I took.
