Last Weekend of Summer part 1

On Friday afternoon we drove out to Salt Lake to visit with a really good friend of Willie's. We had a lot of fun catching up with him and meeting his 6 month old for the first time. We lost track of time and didn't get to my Grandma's in Clearfield until midnight.

The next day was my Grandparents 60th anniversary. To celebrate some of the family went to watch my Uncle David (their youngest) fly in an air show in Evonston, Wyoming. This was the first air show I have been to where the planes did stunts. It was so neat. These pictures are of his show.


This is a heart he did in the sky for Grandma and Grandpa's anniversary. The announcer told the crowd that David was doing that to celebrate his parents 60th. Then he said congratulations Stan and Carol Erickson. It was really neat and I am glade I got a picture of it.









This picture is of us waiting for Uncle D to taxi in. it was all very exciting really.












I love this picture of my Uncle. He is proof that dreams do come true. As long as I can remember he talked about flying in air shows. And the past few years he has been. I think it is really neat.










As soon as Uncle David came over the yellow tape Marybeth was right there to give him a big hug. I snapped the picture at just the right time.









The next picture is off the rest of the family coming to say hi.












I like this picture of my Uncle Mike, Uncle David, Grandpa, and my honey. Don't know why just do. My Aunt Jenae had these little planes that the kids could put together and throw. I had to laugh because I remember having blow up air planes that we would race down the stairs, and my Grandpa getting mad at us for playing on the stairs. Good times!









My Uncle had some pictures of his plane in the sky that he brought and signed for those who wanted them. Yes I did get one. That little red headed boy was very cute and asked my Uncle a lot of questions. The kids started getting bored so my always prepared Aunt Tina had coloring books for all the kids. That kept thementertained for a few minutes.

To Be Continued...
