Beautiful Free Sunday Afternoon!

This past weekend Maxwell Air Force Base had an air show! We went Sunday afternoon and had a great time. We were at the end of the runway and had the very best seats in the house. The kids were able to run and play without the crowds! It was a wonderful way to spend the afternoon! Especially since it was FREE!!
We were this close to the runway!!
The Thunderbirds were VERY loud!
The main event, the Thunderbirds.

We were so close!

Thanks to Rolling O Sod Farm for letting us set up in such a great spot! We took a picnic and enjoyed the show!

Chirp, chirp here; chirp, chirp there

I must say, the things that we do our familes can sometimes, be a bit crazy. After watching Food Inc., Todd decided that we needed to get chickens again. Todd and our neighbor Ben built this great coop for us! We have 16 pullets! We had to replace 2 Buffs that our dogs got a hold of! We hope to have plenty of eggs and even some chicken dinner!!
