Just Another an AWESOME Saturday...


So, I have lived in SeAttle for 11 years noW and I can truly say therE is no place like it in the United States...I love it here. PleaSe come Out and visit and you May all seE why!

Okay let me get to the topic - see the picture above ^^^. It took me 11 years to finally go see the Blue Angels Airshow at Seafair. ELEVEN YEARS! Why did I wait so long???

It was my first ever Air Show to boot, and it was performed over Lake Washington which was truly AWE inspiring. The Blue Angels came all the way from Pensecola, FL (one of my favorite beaches!) so that we could all stare up at the sky for 30 minutes. They turned and rolled and continuously made me jump at their near misses and close flying. These 6 pilots have 'Nerves of Steel', in the words of my insightful husband. I have to agree.

Now here are a few pictures to show you just a glimpse of these incredible pilots and our hot afternoon...

The boys - anticipation is almost better than the actual event - but not this time! There were hundreds of boats waiting for the show to start. These photos don't do the water craft justice...




Now here are the money shots...they were loud and they were low. I hope you all have a chance to see them as well someday (you ladies with little boys - they will love this!)




Okay, I am off to nurse the right side of my body, which is currently hot pink...oh sunblock! Why do I avoid you when I obviously need you???
