Up Up and Away!

Every year we have a Balloon Festival that goes on in Eden, up the canyon from where we live. It is so much fun to go and watch the balloons go up. We try to go to at least 2 of the 3 mornings that they launch balloons and one night to watch them glow. Above is a glow picture, they look like chinese lanters all lit up, bigger than life. It is so cool and addicting.

We have been going to the Festival for about 5 years now. They are so fun to go to. The girls love to go too. Mia really understood what was going on this year and had a great time. We try to drag as many people as we can tell up there to share something that we love. I am determined to go up once in my life, we havn't done it yet because it is $175 dollars a person and needless to say, we decided that we should use our money to feed the children, not fly! We hope that everyone can go see balloons launch once in their lives... it's truly breathtaking!
