Spanish Fork Air Show

Today there was a small air and car show in Spanish Fork.  Dustin wanted to have ThunderPig in the show, but that didn't work out....so we still went to the show because we figured the kids (that includes Dustin) would get a kick out of the small planes and activities.  They were offering very short helicopter rides as well for a price.....the helicopters only held three passengers, so we decided that Dustin would go with the two boys.  We had about a hour and a half wait until our turn on the helicopter so we walked around and checked everything out.

They had a boy 'ride' for kids.....they all go to take turns using the oars...


Some planes flying above to watch...


Quite a bit of small planes to look at up close!



Logan found his favorite car....


Zach found BUMBLEBEE!


Firetruck to play in and on...


Army Hummer!


And now for what all the boys had been waiting for....the helicopter ride!  They filled it up with gas right before they boarded.


Here they are taking off.  Zach was able to sit in the front with the pilot, while Dustin and Logan sat in the back.





Apparently the kids enjoyed talking to each other through the headset intercoms.  They flew around the Spanish Fork area and were able to spot Horvath Hotrods from the ride!  That was where ThunderPig was!


They made a safe landing and exited the helicopter and ran over to Jen to tell her all about how cool it was!
