We have done a LOT of exploring over the last 2 weeks in Wyoming and Idaho, but this Saturday was a special trip to Idaho Falls for the Extremem Blue Thunder Air Show 2017! Kip has wanted to see the Blue Angels fly for a long time - lucky us that they were so close to our new house! It was a long, hot, but AWESOME day on the field watching the planes! The kids enjoyed it as long as we kept McKinley plied with food/treats/water all day. :)
We had fun walking the tarmac and visiting vendor tents before the show; we were there quite early to get good spots right next to the fence.
A variety of stunt planes
An F-35!
The F-18 Blue Angels, preparing for take-off
It was very cool! My Aunt Heather and Uncle Jerry drove up from Blackfoot and we got to visit with them for the first time in a while, which was so fun! Before coming home we made a stop at WalMart; this was a highlight because even though it's not my favorite store, we are a little short on retail experiences around Alpine...so we were stuffing the cart as full as possible! It was funny, and a little embarrassing strolling out of there with 2 carts loaded with food and fans and goodies. A stop at Culvers for some delicious frozen custard on the way out capped the day off.
Hoorah for adventures!
