A week in review

Here are a few pictures from the Air Show. The guys were resting in the troop seats until we were able to head to the cockpit of the C-130.
The guys pose for me in front of a C-17 that is stationed here at Dover. The crew of the C-17 put on a great show with all of their tactical maneuvers.


Supporting the Air Force the boys pose with the USAF Recruiting SUV.
We also were able to see the USAF Thunderbirds perform. They put on an amazing show. Those guys are extremely talented and courageous to do some of the stunts that they do.
Hubby showed the boys all the particulars on this F-15 Strike Eagle. He flew in one in Denmark when he won Maintaince Professional of the Year for the USAFE. He was in all his glory telling the boys all about his experience.
The next morning we were off to drop J off at camp. This was his first time staying overnight for an entire week. He was totally excited. We were able to snap just a few shots before he ran off to make new friends. This is a picture of J in his cabin. He chose the top bunk.



This is one of his camp counselors Chris.
We wished him good luck with wrangling up 8 boys each week.

Final pose outside of the cabin. This year he was in Kingfisher. All the cabins are named after birds. He has previously stayed in Paradise & Robin. He was so excited to be in a brand new cabin. We were able to get this final shot and just like that he ran off and we were literally trying to figure out if he went left or right. Hubby and I walked back to the car and off in the distance J shouted a final goodbye. We will pick him up Saturday morning. A has really missed him. He even saved his bag of chips and cookies for J for the long car ride home.



We have tried to keep A busy this week though. Our church had it's Vacation Bible School(VBS) this week during the day and I helped teach the 2nd grade class. Then we were off to the VBS that the Base Chapel was offering at night. I typically work both but since they both landed on the same week I chose to work only at our home church. This gave me time in the evenings to run errands, shop, get a haircut and go on a peaceful dinner with hubby. Life is good! :-)




*** Here's a peek at a wicked storm that blew through on Monday. You could actually see the rain coming down from the clouds.
