This past weekend was the annual Wings Over Houston airshow. We didn't go to the actual airshow, but we did spent Friday at the airfield, where my husband works, watching the airshow practice. So awesome. I really think I enjoyed it more than my four year old. I wish my older son could have been on the flightline with us, but he was in school. I don't have any photos of the plane stunts, due to a crappy zoom (a new camera is REALLY on my wishlist), but I thought I'd share some of the ones I got of my son on the ground. :)
Rylan and an Apache
For those who aren't familiar, an Apache is an attack helicopter... this one is of course empty, but missiles are usually held under that wing.
Wider shot:
Here my husband is showing little man the big gun under the helicopter.
After the first jet went over at about 100 ft off the ground, we realized we should probably have some ear plugs in. :)
We've also been working hard the past few days, wrapping up our Halloween costumes. I can't wait to show you guys!

Great photos! Looks like y'all had a good time.
ReplyDeleteI love this! I know being a military family can be tough sometimes... but your lil man is so lucky! That is every boys dream to get up close and personal with "Big Toys" like that!
ReplyDeleteLooks like it was a fun day! I love airshows and attend one, faithfully, in Toronto every year. Who knows, maybe you have a future pilot on your hands.
