Hot Air Balloons

One of Mykey's buddies from work invited us to meet up with him at a hot air balloon festival. Sounds fun! So we went. Guess what? It was fun!

When we emerged from the car, it was hotter than the tines of Satan's pitchfork outside. I was concerned we would be miserable all day. It kind of was miserable, but we eeked out a good time nonetheless. Once your entire body is soaked with sweat, you just have to surrender to the oppression. I especially enjoyed imbibing in lukewarm drinking fountain water all day since the vendors ran out of water to sell. Always refreshing. 

No matter. Just surrender.

We had a great day!

We looked at all the amazing balloons 


Sissy refused to smile nicely


Then she stood in a long line to bounce high into the atmosphere



We frolicked in bubbles




And when the sun went down, the sweating ceased and it was a pleasant evening watching the glow of the balloon fires.



We arrived home late that night exhausted from our adventures of the day.

What a magnificent way to spend a Saturday!
