The Airshow :(

we'll start with friday. on friday i brought the girls to the same OT and speech specialists that jordan goes to. i had decided to atleast get them tested that way if they need something we can catch it now and not when they are in kindegarten. i do not have the test results yet, but both of the specialists seem to think that they will need very minimal intervention, but they could use some. like i said we haven't gottne the official scores yet, so that could change. the speech therapist was very impressed with the girls and said that they showed a little articulation errors, but their sentences that they make would not be expected till they were 4!!! i knew they talked alot and really good :). anyway, i may find out on monday about their tests, but we will see.



on to the airshow. so, this is supposed to be the last airshow in maine since the base is closing. although it is free to the public, they do sell tickets for seats. we bought some seeing as i did not feel like carrying around seats for all of us. the tickets cost $8 each, but you get to sit really close. anyway, we knew it was supposed to rain, but the weather said it was supposed to "sprinkle" the whole day. we figured we could deal with "sprinkles". well, we got there at about 9:30 am., and the show was to start at 10. we found our VERY wet seats. thankfully there were ladies there that were wiping the seats. here are some pics while we were waiting for the show to start:

at around 10:30, we saw the first plane. it flew in and dropped some simulation bombs. it was pretty cool! here are a couple of pics:



this truck uses jet engines on the back and fly's down the track! it is super cool, but the weather stopped it from doing what it usually does (races a airplane)


after this, they made an announcement about the clouds being too low to put anything up for a while, so we decided to go and walk around. we found a simulator that aunt sue took toya and jordan on (this is when it really started to rain):







we decided since we were already soaked, that we might as well just look at some of the things they had set up. we then saw a HUGE plane (see how small the people look standing under it). grammy took toya and jordan in there:






we then decided that we had had enough of the rain. it was now almost noon time and there hadn't really been any more planes going up. we went back to get our blankets and my cousin (sue) asked if we could get a refund since it was pouring. we had to wait so my mom headed back with the kids to the van. we got our money back and then the "hurricane" hit. it was rediculous! it really wasn' a hurricane, but when you are walking and the wind is soo strong and it is pouring, it really feels like a hurricane. sue and i were laughing as we walked back to the van, what else can you do? we met up with my mom and the kids playing in a caboose type thing and headed to the van. anyway, by the time we got back to the van, we were completely soaked. even our underclothing was soaked, that's how bad it was. our socks and shoes were soaked. the girls were shivering. i thought i was smart cause i brought the girls an extra change of clothes, but smart me left them in their cloth diaper bags that were in the carriage, so you know what happened to them :). we stripped the girls down, turned on the heat and wrapped them in their blankies. we were all soaked but toasty in no time. we had a one hour ride home like that, but we stopped at a drive through and got lunch and everyone was happy for the entire ride home. although it was not a great trip, it was a very interesting one, and we still laughed quit a bit! :)

so, that is all for now, have a great week and i hope you enjoy the pics!

p.s. the umbrellas you see did absolutely nothing! during the "hurricane", they were turning inside out! haha. gotta laugh!

i like the new picture. i know how you feel about watching grayson grow up in pictures. every post you put up i see how much the girls are changing-not so much toya and jordan as they are past that stage.

I like the group pic of the kids. They are wonderful kids.

It's a bummer that we didn't get to see the Blue Angels fly. There's not much you can do about the weather I guess. I don't think I've ever been that soaked before in my life. :)

Me either - now we know what soak to the bones really means!

Sounds like you all were brave to withstand all the rain! I HATE when the umbrellas turn inside out...I bet the car ride with the heaters on full blast was the best part of the day:)

We were suppose to go on Saturday to the air show too, but because of the rain we decided not to go. I am so glad.
The plane pictures look really cool though!
Looks like you all had a good time regardless of the less the great weather.
