Blue Angels, Cookout and Beach


I am starting to love the fact that on some days I am awoken by the Blue Angels flying around. Usually they fly on Tuesday and Wednesday at 8am. Well I guess this morning they decided they wanted to do a joy flight. I love the south of them flying over. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get used to the sound, but I am! I love it! It's a beautiful sound! Andrew said that we would go on base next week and find a good spot for me to take pictures of them while they are practicing. It is hard to sit on the balcony here at the apartment and try to take pictures because there are all these trees around. Next weekend we are going to Eglin Air Force Base for the Air show! I get to see the Thunderbirds fly and of course get pictures of them. I kind of wish I bad a bigger lens, but I know my camera will do. Especially since I will know where they will be and I wont be looking in weird places for them to come out of. I am hoping the pictures I get of the Thunderbirds turn out better than the last air show I went too. Of course that was like 2 years ago and I didn't have the camera I have now. Also getting pictures of the other aircrafts that will be there! Here are some pictures that I took about 2 years ago! (Click the pictures to get the full image!)

Anyways, I am very excited about this air show next weekend.

Friday night we went over to the Thomas' house for a cookout. We had a fire, roasted marshmellows and had amazing food. Lt. Thomas can cook for me anyday! HA! It was great hanging out with friends!


Andrew and I went to the beach Saturday with some of the other LT's and their wives! It was a blast, minus the fact that I look like a lobster right now. Oh well. I will survive and when it goes away I will be slightly tan. I am planning on starting to work out starting this week and to lay by the pool. I start training more tomorrow with the Navy Marine-Corps Relief Society. I am very excited to experience it and have fun doing it!

The OU women play basketball tonight. They are in the Final 4. We just have to win this game to get to the championship game! So very excited for the girls! Gotta show my OU pride while living here in Florida! Good luck ladies!

Well there isn't much more to write right now. Have a great Easter!
