Blue Angels Airshow at Huntsville Airport

We met our dear friends, the Schmidts, in Huntsville this past weekend for the Airshow 2008. It was AWESOME. Patty Wagstaff, a champion aerobatic pilot, was one of our favorites before the Blue Angels. She is amazing!! The kids were all happy to see each other again, too. After the show, we left and went to CiCi's pizza, where we ate ridiculous amounts of pizza, salad, and dessert. Then back to the Hampton Inn off of Madison Blvd for swimming and hanging out.
Gotta say though, Alice was such a trooper. She sat in her stroller the whole time we were at the airport. It was dreadfully hot and dehydrating. There was a Blue Angels paramedic that saw our peril and let the kids sit in the air conditioned ambulance for a moment or two to cool off. He said several kids were just passing out. BLESS him!!!!!!
The only ridulous thing at the airshow were all these trucks set up with video games stations. So many kids were not interested in this fantastical airshow because of this. Can we ever get away from video games??? Oh well.
We had a fabulous time and look so forward to the up and coming July 4th festivities!!!!!! YEA!!!!!!! One of my very favorite times of year.
