Blue Angels

This past Wednesday Eric took Hayden to the Naval Academy in Annapolis to see the Blue Angels fly.  He had to work in the morning but knew he had a short clinic day so we kept Hayden home from school and the big boys had an awesome day together.  Before leaving we went to Bass Pro to get him some ear protecting headphones and binoculars.  Being military, Eric was able to bypass some of the traffic getting onto base and they got a great spot to watch the show on the bleachers.  I don't think Hayden really knew what to expect but Eric said he watched the entire 50 minute air show and loved it.  They also hit the gift shop before the show where he picked out a blue angel stuffed plane for himself and a mini one for his brother.  When they got back Hayden told me all about it with much excitement.  I grew up getting to see the Blue Angels almost every year at the base near my home so I was really happy Hayden had the chance to see them too.  Here are some photos Eric took.
