Just this past weekend we went down to my parent's house for my cousin Sam's graduation party. It was held at the new dealership, which was a great venue. It was a lot of fun.
They even had a giant game of Jenga which was made with cut down 2x4s!
It was in constant use. Of course I lost and had the giant tower come crashing down on me!
Earlier on Saturday, we had a lovely afternoon out on the river enjoying the Blue Angels show.
Fat Albert led off the show,
and then the Blue Angels took to the sky.
They haven't been in town for 7 years, but in the past we had always gone down to the airfest grounds to watch. This new perspective was great, and much less stressful.
Sunday was a stormy day, but dad was determined to go out on the boat and see the Blue Angels again. During a break in the pouring rain, all of us and cousin Jesse headed out. It was pouring on the water, so we all clustered together under the canopy.
Up towards the airport, we could see clear skies. We made it just as the Blue Angels started. As you can imagine, there were much fewer boats out to watch than on sunny clear Saturday.

Due to the weather, they did a "low show" which was actually much cooler as they got closer to us. Plus, this time there was 6 aircraft (only 5 on Saturday due to mechanical problems on one).
Our ride back got a little intense towards the end with torrential downpour and thunder. But we made it!

Back at home we had DQ ice cream cake with the K's to celebrate Christine's birthday and then we were off home with the fishing boat in tow.
It was exhausting to be out of town for the 4th weekend in a row, but worth it!
