The Navy had a blowout weekend to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Naval Aviation. They had the annual golf tournament, we went to an extremely overpriced ball, a "super hero" bar crawl, and the Air Show to celebrate. Nanny, PopPops, Uncle Bobby, Aunt Pat, Anna, Kathleen, and Caris all came down to hit the town and see the air show. The girls had so much fun with the crew while we were at the ball.
Greg and some of the other Junior Officers (JOs) have a tradition of dressing up for this golf tournament. This year they decided to dress like the Beastie Boys sabotage video. I searched high and low for a ridiculous wig for Greg and found a great Justin Bieber one at Walmart. Here is the finished look.
Above is a picture of what the Beastie Boys wore in that video. They were 70s undercover cops that got in a ridiculous car chase.
They did a great job replicating the 70s undercover cop look. The group of them were the talk of the tournament!
Ava get's into the 70s groove
Sadly, our last formal event with VFA-32
The guys looking oh so debonaire
My girlfriend Cari from the RAG class. She just had a baby and doesn't she look amazing?!

At our overpriced and overcooked dinner. There were about 1,500 people in attendance at this ball. The most entertaining part was when about 100 Junior Officers from our side of the room threw their dinner rolls at the other side of the room. Prestigious events are not excused from wild JO traditions. Please notice the adorable little sword in Greg's bowtie as well.
My girlfriend Jackie who had a baby TWO days after this picture was taken. Isn't she a knockout!?
Luckily, the squadron usually seats the Harpers next to us at these events. Kitty and I always take a picture like this at each dinner because usually we are the trouble makers at the table.
The Swordsmen decided to do a "super hero" bar crawl after the ball. They were the talk of the TownCenter! I was proud to accompany "Super Daddy" (PG version) or "Super Douche" (R Version). That Justin Bieber wig had lots of appearances in Virginia Beach!
Greg's favorite outfit of the night was JHunts. He was "HitGirl"
Jason and Devin were the too hot to handle Batman and Catwoman
Boys will be boys
Airshow time! This is Mini's preferred mode of transportation- Daddy's shoulders!
Ava prefers a more grand entrance

One of the coolest parts of the airshow was the Home Depot tent. They helped the kids build different wooden toys for free.

Great Great weekend!
