Balloon Festival

A balloon festival is on my Mom's bucket list. It has been as long as I can remember. So I was thinking we were pretty lucky when there was a balloon festival in south Phoenix the week before Thanksgiving. Sounds like a good reason for everyone to come visit!

McKay and Julie were checking them out. We had to leave at four in the morning to get there for the dawn launch; but the boys were surprisingly interested. Logan was really into it. We got there early and did some shopping; and stayed late and jumped on bouncies.
It was pretty cool seeing a bunch of them go off as the sun came up. I tried to get close just because I was cold and there was fire. They didn't appreciate that so much. One more thing crossed off!

You know there's a balloon festival at the Tetons every 4th of July. Just saying, if you needed an excuse to get your whole family to the great state of Idaho....
