AUGUST - Blue Angels and Tracy's Birthday

One of Eben's favorite weekends on the boat is SeaFair weekend where we get to watch the airshow Friday through Monday. He went out all three days and the kids and I joined him for the weekend - on Saturday with his friends from work Jed, Joey and their three boys - and on Sunday with the Adams family. It is quite a scene with so many boats heading down towards I-90 to watch the airshow. You can see how the wake is crazy going under 520.

 

There are boats and boats and boats all floating around, fending off each other, having water balloon fights, playing music, you name it. The kids had fun scavenging for floating water balloons.

 

The jets are thrilling and the sound of them passing directly overhead and so close to the lake is intense and exhilarating.

The kids watched it from the tube with Tennyson.

  

 This is how close they fly to the boats.

 On Saturday night we celebrated Tracy's 40th Birthday with a Pool Party at her house. Jeremy and friends had done a ton of work to pull it off and everything looked as beautiful as the lovely Tracy, herself.

 We enjoyed drinks on the patio, food in the cabana, and even a late night dip in the pool.

 

On Sunday we headed back out to SeaFair with Chris and Meg. I forgot my camera, so these photos are credit: Meg.
