Last Saturday night, everyone was finally feeling better (after the dreaded stomach bug hit all of us but Graham, more on that later) we headed out to the Plano Balloon Fest with some friends. If you are from a small town like we are, where there are only about 3 1/2 balloons and some stale cotton candy to snack on at their balloon fest, then coming to the Plano one is pretty stinkin cool! And BIG!
We met at our new friends’ house, whom we met at a park about two months ago (I promise, it’s not as creepy as it sounds). They are fun people and the best part, they have TWINS! They are about 6 weeks younger than the boys. Oh, and they are girls, which makes it better, because we have already arranged for which twin will marry who. Love arranged marriages because we are good friends with the in-laws already.
Anyway, besides it being crowded, loud, chaotic, and HOT, we had a GREAT time!
Gage, Brooklyn, Graham, Mila
(in couples that we arranged for marriage) I’m kinda kidding, but kinda not :)
Daddy and Gage

getting their “ba-oo” (balloons)
I believe his exact words, “Oh wow!” (sorry for the front wedgie, but, he’s rockin it)

Snacks keep us busy and entertained (and happy)
How many adults does it take to take their children’s picture?
Carter joined us too, but not for long…
“Mom, seriously? I’m trying to hang with my girl!”
Wonder what they are discussing?
You can tell this is one of those pictures where we are all faking a smile for the camera. Notice my muscles err, arms, straining.
We were having fun at this point
Couldn’t decide which pic was better so I put them both on
Oh yeah, balloons.
I love this pic of daddy and, umm… one of the boys, not sure who. Oopsie :)
Not sure how I ended up with two pictures of the hot air balloons? Oh yeah, I remember, because we didn’t exactly “sit around” and watch them.
But it was fun. Maybe we will go again next year and attempt the “toddler” area, full of face painting, bounce houses, and trillions of kids!
