The weekend of June 25, we went up to our cabin in Hatch, UT. The next town over, Panguitch, UT, was having their Hot Air Balloon Festival. This was actually why we went up for the weekend. We seriously had SO much fun, we will probably make this an annual thing we do. My only regret was that we didn't actually get to RIDE in a balloon, but I think we will try to work something out for next year so we can.
During the day they had a little carnival type thing going on in town. Not super impressive, but Sky got to jump SUPER high on the trampoline and thought that was SUPER fun.
After the carnival thing, we met up with my sister and her family. We took some of her kids and went in to Bryce Canyon for some sight seeing. Unfortunately I didn't catch any photos of that :( Afterward we took the kids to Subway...as you can see, Connor was totally BEAT! David got all the kids a Push-Pop. This was the twinkies first experience with a push pop...how do you think they did?
At night all the balloons go on to the 2 main streets in Panguitch and inflate the balloons. It was really cool to see the night sky lit up with all the balloons. These pictures were taken on my phone, so not the greatest, sorry.
WE HAVE LIFT OFF
The next morning, we went to the open field were probably over 30 balloons were getting ready to take off. It was so AWESOME to go walk around among all the balloons and be right in the action. There was one balloon shaped like Smokey the Bear, that was pretty cool. The boys had such a BLAST.
One sorta funny side story about this fun experience. Skyler is starting to..."control his bladder." Though it is usually only when it is convenient for HIM. He goes when and where he wants whether it is in his diaper, the toilet or the dirt, but he does have control of it. We are out among all these beautiful balloons, watching the sky fill up. I am with Connor walking around and David is with Skyler. I am looking up, and then turn to David, then look down at Skyler...who has stripped down to his birthday suit and is now watering the grass in the middle of this HUGE field for everybody to see. I scream to David to stop him (David was looking into the sky as well, so he missed the show). I run over...at this point we couldn't really stop him, so David stands on one side and I stand on the other to cover what we can. I car drives by, seeing this spectacle, and the lady is just laughing at us, as I am laughing, hiding my head in shame. Anyway, it was funny!
