Capital Air Show

Here's another long overdue post. In the summer, I took the boys to the Capital Air Show in Sacramento. Our beloved Cancun came along too. We had never been to an air show and didn't know what to expect.
 It was way cooler than I thought it would be.
We saw big old historical airplanes from Vietnam, Korea and even WWII.
 We saw some crazy acrobatics. Yes, that is a woman on the plane walking around.
Some of the planes were going super fast and flying super close. It was impressive. You can't capture how fast these planes were going on video. But in real live person, it was amazing!
 
Our favorite plane was the Harrier jet. It was super cool to watch it hover in the air and turn.
The one thing about Sacramento is that it can get HOT. Good thing we had umbrellas.
This was my artistic photo. Actually, I was just fortunate to barely catch the plane in the shot. It went so fast!
We went because Matt loves airplanes. Maybe he has a future as a pilot at the Air Force Academy. Maybe not. But either way, he had a great time.
