For a couple of days last week, the skies above our house were busy. We loved it! We stood outside and screamed and waved and dreamed and felt awe and inspired and so much gratitude for our country and the amazing men who choose to serve and protect our rights and freedoms.

On Friday afternoon we got to go out to the airport with Ken's work to watch one of the practices. It was hot! miserable! and AWESOME! The other 3 days we watched it from our backyard where it was much cooler! less stressful! and still AWESOME!

Very few were lucky enough to watch it like this....
Most of us were on the hard, rocky, very hot, no shade ground!
Shades and good friends were a must!
This is the corner of my house. I wanted proof of how close they really were flying and of what kind of show we really got to have all week long.

That is AWESOME! We lived in Indian Springs, NV that is the practice air space of the Thunderbirds. We got the watch them perform all winter long and then the first show of the year is for the town. Those pilots are amazing!
Wow! You got some really great pictures. We went to the show on saturday but my camera died just as the angels started flying. Landon got to ride on fat albert and he got a really great video but used up all my battery!
looks fun and hot!
You are an incredible photographer! Great pics. We went on Saturday, and enjoyed every minute of the flying, heat, and dust!!! Although, the two hours in the parking lot afterwards was a little crazy.
So cool! I love that kind of stuff. Great job getting pictures! Everyone is better at that than me.
So cool! My kids would have LOVED that!
Weren't they amazing?! I loved watching them. Wow, you got some cool pictures!
Wow! Cool! That would have been really exciting to see!
Man, I wish they had air shows around here. The boys would love it!
