Miwaukee Air/Water Show

Sunday 6/13/10 we decided to drive up to Milwaukee to see their air and water show. We asked our friends, the Smiths, to come too. Luckily they lived in Milwaukee for a few years after they got married, so they knew of a little park to sit at. We ended up sitting a couple blocks away on a nice open grassy area. It was a GREAT place to sit! We could see EVERYTHING and there was plenty of places for the kids to run around and play! We got to see all the various planes, the guys jump out with parachutes, etc. Too bad we all forgot the sunscreen (it was mostly overcast, so we didn't think we needed it)!! Oops!!! Poor Eryn was SO burnt!

After the air/water show we went out to dinner at the Pipe Organ Pizza. It was a really neat place where a guy plays the pipe organ and the kids could dance if they wanted. There was also an arcade that kept them busy! All in all, a fun day! :)

Here are some pictures:

The parachute jumper guys! (I don't really know what they're called)!

Big plane!






Big hill that kept the kids very amused!
But you can also see how close we were to everything!
