We are learning lots about the culture and activities that go on in Kentucky. They start the celebration for the Kentucky Derby 2 weeks before the actual race. Yesterday there was a event in downtown Louisville called Thunder over Louisville. There was an air show, lots of yummy food, and great fireworks! Mylee and I got the opportunity to go with some APX Wives. It was fun to finally be around girls! I miss my mom and sisters so much that I guess I will have to improvise for the next couple of weeks!
The fireworks were amazing. They were so good, even better than Idaho Falls 4Th of July Fireworks! Which was hard to believe. They were going off on a huge barge in the Ohio River. They also closed one of the bridges and they had them going off from the bridge as well. One of the best parts was when two helicopters flew with the American flags below them. They flew over the river while the loud speakers blasted "Proud to be an American" It was so much fun, and a great way to kick off a summer in Louisville with lots more fun to come!
