5-25, Memorial Weekend


We had a very relaxed, enjoyable Memorial Weekend. Sven's dad drove out from Pittsburgh to spend it with us. It had been quite awhile since we had all been together, and it was nice to catch up. As always, Nikolas was thrilled to have Pap-pap here with us (and obviously so were we). Saturday we enjoyed the beautiful weather and got some exercise at a local trail. Sunday we headed down to Pax River for an air show. Every time we see the Blues fly we miss Pensacola. They would practice 3 days a week and it was always such a thrill to see them fly over our backyard. Quite a bit different than having to fight the crowds at an air show! Anyway, it was great to see them again and we enjoyed the show.


Boy, didn't the firemen have the best view?


or what about this air crew?!


Then there was just us 'regular folks' trying to see past the outhouses!


Don't they look like 3 peas in a pod?!



Pax River is a Navy base and it was great to be surrounded by the Navy once again.


.... ahhh....this crazy, adventurous military life!
