Thunderbirds Air Show

We had a busy and fun Saturday! It started off with a parade in Wellington and booths at the park. Then we had lunch and went to Altus Air Force Base to watch an air show. It was a lot of amazing! The Thunderbirds did a show which was awesome. It is amazing to see those jets fly so close together and so precisely. They had a kid section with bounce houses and a rock climbing wall, so we played there after the show. There were lots of big Air Force planes we could have gone inside and different simulators, but we didn’t have enough time. All the flyers said it would be open until 6pm, but they started closing everything at 5. It was pretty disappointing, but we still had a great time. Then Daddy entertained the kids at the Halloween section of Walmart while I got groceries.

Waiting impatiently for some CANDY!!!
It got so boring they had to shut out the world for a little while with bags on their heads!!
I thought this was a pretty good float for little ol' Wellington.
Bentley wasn't the biggest fan of the air show.  It was a little long and loud for her taste.
Kyler thinks he's pretty cool with his shades!
This is Kyler's Maui face.  It's from the movie Moana which we have watched no less than 100 times because of Bentley.

The plane in the back shot through those other two planes so fast!
I'm pretty sure I would have thrown up if I was in the plane leaving that trail!




5 planes zooming off in different directions.
They would get so close!!
Wow!!
Jumping around in the bounce houses.  I think Bentley made all the people monitoring them because she was so little, but we let her in with bigger kids.  She handled herself just fine!!
Kyler climbing the rock wall.  I think he would have done much better if he wasn't trying to go so fast, but he did really well.  Don't ask about the horrible socks!!  He would wear thigh high socks if he had them.
He got pretty high, but not quite to the top.
Damon was not about to let this opportunity be passed up!  He did well too!
Kyler and Radley next to one of the many planes they had all over.

They had some huge planes!  It was amazing how big they were.
Haha!!!  Radley!
Kyler
I don't know what it is about Radley in these masks, but I think he is so funny wearing them!
Kyler doesn't have to put on an act to be like an old man.  He's pretty good in his own!


Here are a few short videos of the air show. I like listening to the boys commentating in the background!
