Hot Air Balloon Festival

So this was our second time going to the Hot Air Balloon Festival.
We almost didn't go, it was kinda overcast and sprinkling a little this morning, but we decided to chance it, and it turned out to be a beautiful day!
Enjoying some ice cream...

Kaylee had so much fun playing "soccer" with daddy, while we were waiting for the balloons...

taking a little cotton candy break! (they really did eat more than just junk food...there was this great Thai booth, and they had some delicious tofu/noodles...I just didn't think to take pics of it!)


and some more soccer...

and finally (after2-3 delays!) the first hot air balloon is in the air! It was so windy, which made it a little bit challenging for the balloons to take off.

Trying to get a closer look...

so awesome to be this close!



After the "race" they come back to the field, and set up for the glow...very cool after sunset!
