Sept 6 ~ My Kids Love Hot Air Balloons

Labor Day weekend we had quite the weekend ahead of us....we had a trip down to Boise for our niece Kiara's baptism on Sat. Sept 6 then had to be in Burley, ID Sun Sept 7 for our niece Clancy's baby blessing and then had to get back to Helena hopefully before anyone from Jake's work noticed he really wasn't in town (he was on call for the weekend). So Friday night we arrived at my Mom's house at 11:30pm and visited for a little bit before we went to bed. Sat we woke up early to take the kids down to the park for a hot air balloon "race"/show. After that we had to run some quick errands I had around town before Kiara's baptism and then after that the night was pretty well over and we were on our way to Burley (with just enough time to be there for the sacrament meeting) and then took off to come home. To be honest I am not totally sure if we really went on the trip or not.....it was TOO QUICK!!!!


The kids excited about the balloons
They were soooo excited as they started to take off

We grabbed McDonald's on the way so we had something to eat


We all LOVE the BSU balloon


Saige liked this rocket balloon

What a strange boy we have!!!

The sky dotted with balloons


When Aspynn saw this one she started saying there's Grandpa Jenkins Soda Cup Balloon. Grandpa LOVES his coke!!! I am going to have to blow this up for him and give it to him = )

When it landed the kids wanted to have their pic taken with the balloon....too bad the sun was right in their faces

Then we went over to the REMAX balloon and the kids were able to ask the guys who owned and piloted the balloon some questions. They thought it was awesome!!!


Aspynn wanted to see inside so I lifted her up to see. She thought it was really cool in there, but was wondering where the people sit while they fly it....??


We had soooo much fun down at the park....too bad we couldn't stay longer!!!
