Central Texas Air Show

On May 5th we made our way to Temple for the Central Texas Air Show. The weather was abnormally cold that morning and we were not exactly prepared. It was the north wind... very strong and chilly. We pilfered the car for a couple of extra blankets and bundled the boys up in the jogging stroller and that bought us some time until the sun warmed things up. A drastic change from last year when we all nearly melted.

Zeroes waiting for their fiery entrance in "Tora Tora Tora."

The A.R.F. Truck, always a favorite with our boys.

He was particularly excited about the beads they were handing out.

The Devil Dog, from Georgetown.

Alan and Aaron checking out this little reconnaissance plane.

There are amazing pieces of military and aviation history strewn about and he's obsessed with the beads. You've got to love the mind of a child - one thing is for certain... easy to please.

A Jeep will make all three of them perk up.

Snorkel discussion.

And then we thought it would be "cute" if we sat our kids next to these big guns and took pictures of them. Turns out it is pretty cute, if you're in to that sort of thing...

Adam was convinced he was awesome because he could lift the gun.

We wandered over and found a spot to watch the aerial portion of the show and bundled up because despite the intense sun, the wind was still whipping coldly against our exposed skin.

Adam fell asleep at the start of the show. With unbelievably loud noises booming all around him, he laid down on his Daddy's chest and passed out. He slept the entire time.

Tora, Tora, Tora.

Still sleeping. So cute.

Here's my attempt to video a few of the acts...
