Thunder Over Louisville 2010

Every year, to kick off the Kentucky Derby Festival, Louisville has an all-day long air show and the biggest fireworks show in the country. It’s called Thunder Over Louisville. We try to go every year because it is so fun and the fireworks really are amazing. My friend Nicole always goes early and gets a great spot for us all, and this year was no exception. There was reportedly around 700,000 people attending this year. That is a LOT of drunk college kids and mullets. I love people watching.

Summer and Camryn had so much fun. They loved being able to take off their shoes and run around on our blankets, eating all of the snacks we brought.

We all went to sleep right away and slept an hour or so later than normal this morning, but we are still recovering. Hopefully another night’s sleep and an uneventful day tomorrow will help!

I totally forget that you live in Kentucky! HA I have never been to Thunder, but that is only because I am bad with crowds. Majority of my friends go, and tell me about it later. Plus, I have not been in Indiana for it in the past 4 years or so. The girls look like they had a blast!

Looks like fun! It'll be a while with our little one before we can go again! So fun! I bet the technical delay was frustrating, seeing how you had waited ALL day for the show! I enjoyed the pics!
