Hillsboro Air Show 2009

This weekend was the annual Hillsboro Air Show with the Thunderbirds being the main attraction. Well we have a future pilot in our family so Richard thought it would be fun to take him on a father son outing. I get a lot of one on one time with Joseph with the kids all being in school, but Richard has not had so much of that quality time with Joseph so this was a great opportunity. They rode MAX a few stops down to the fairgrounds exit and according to Richard that would have been enough for Joseph, he LOVES max and was excited to get to ride with daddy. When I picked them up this afternoon Joseph talked non-stop about all the exciting things he got to see. He had such a great day with his dad. And lucky for us, Joseph was young enough to get in for free and due to Richard's military service, he too got in free! Yippee!
Joseph, calling in an airstrike....

It got a little loud when the f-18 flew hornet flew by repeatedly-high speed passes....




Joseph watched most of the airshow from a reclined position on daddy's lap!
