The Balloon Festival was a lot of hot air

)

Being from GC, I am very familiar with the Balloon Festival/ Balloons and Tunes/ whatever they are calling themselves now.

For years, we've watched the big balloons come up over the tree-line, towards mom and dad's house, even landing in dad's fields, or the back yard, more than once!

We thought we'd actually venture over to Beulah Park this year, and get an up close and personal look at the balloons this year, in a way that (hopefully) Amara could enjoy them.

Alas, no. It was EXTREMELY windy (and a tad chilly) on Saturday, and after SEVERAL delays (and still no big balloons), we headed home.

We still had fun. Amara enjoyed the clown who made her a balloon mousey, watching the bigger kids on the inflatable and jumping toys, music, people-watching, and a chic-fil-a sandwich.

There's always next year!
