Thunder Over Utah

On Saturday there was an airshow at the St. George Airport. The airshows we have been to at Nellis Airforce Base in Las Vegas were free but they were charging $20 per adult (if you bought your tickets early) plus $5 for parking (in addition to an on-line ticket order fee). It was a rip off but kids were free so we decided to do it as a final fun thing to do for Spring Break.

Unfortunately, Ethan woke up early in the morning throwing up. He wanted to go really bad so we waited until he said he would be good and took off for the airshow. We were taking Brennon with us (he was free so why not) but Ethan kept throwing up on the way. When we finally were parked, Ethan wanted to go home. So Bryan took Courtney and Brennon to find my parents and enjoy the airshow while I took Ethan home. (Ethan slept all afternoon and woke up feeling great. It was a weird 12 hour flu bug that Courtney got after we went to Legoland the week before.)

They had anticipated 20,000 people showing up on Saturday and had 30,000 actually show up. So parking was a mess, there weren't enough bathrooms and traffic was horrible but Bryan said they had a great time!

They all had a blast watching the Blue Angels and all the other planes. I wish Ethan could have gone but we are going to take him to Nellis in November so he can see an airshow again. We went when he was little and we lived in Vegas but he doesn't remember it.
