So D-M (the base here) had its Air Show here this weekend. The last one they had here was 3 years ago when Brady was like 5 weeks old. Here's a picture of us standing in front of Aaron's plane with him. Brady was so little and slept the entire time in his stroller with the shade over him except for this picture!

They cross and loop at the last minute!

This one we took today but it's missing something....or someone I should say!
From the second we got there, all Brady wanted to do was see and get in Daddy's airplane. So we did that. You weren't supposed to take pictures inside, but when the other people left from the cockpit and the guy manning the plane was helping them down the stairs-I snapped one real quick of Brady sitting in Aaron's seat! He really is Daddy's co-pilot! The quality is not so great because it's so bright outside, it makes it dark in the picture. But I had to take it quick so it's actually not too bad for that!
There were so many vehicles big and small of every kind that is of interest to a 3 year old boy. Here's another of his favorites.
Here we are in a helicopter seat together.
And my personal favorite was the Thunderbirds team. Seriously, this is what they do for their jobs! Crazy! It's so fun to watch and just be amazed at the crazy and very dangerous looking stunts and formations they do. It was very difficult taking these pictures into the sun. I just pointed my camera and clicked because I couldn't even see the screen because it was so bright!
(I must have some smudge on my lens since there is a dark spot on all these pictures.)
Brady's covering his ears after one came shooting by right above us very fast and very loud!
And this last one is a formation flight tribute to all the men and women from the base who are deployed over seas. They did this big loop in formation and turned from end to end. It's amazing really! So this one's for you babe!!
When I asked Brady what his favorite part of the Air Show was today he told me that he liked riding the bus. We had to ride a shuttle bus from where we parked to the back of the base at the runway. I guess it wasn't a total waste of 6 hours as long as we got to ride that bus!!! :) Silly kid, he enjoyed other things too but he loves buses!

SO adorable! Brady manages to have fun or make everything fun!
Love,

Jess, Great job with this. The picture on the flight deck is a keeper...but don't worry, it is perfectly legal to take on the flight deck, just not in the back. Wish I was there with you two. Can you believe it has been three years since that first picture? Hard to believe. I think when we went to the airport once, Brady also said his favorite part was riding in the bus. Its the simple things...
Love you both, Aaron
