WARNING: This may be the longest post ever

This past week was the National Balloon Classic. This is pretty much the best time of year in Indianola. Micah loves balloons, and there was no shortage to see! We went to the balloon field 3 times.

Pay no attention to Mommy's double chin. Blame the bad camera angle.

Eli had a great time at his first ever Balloon Classic!

Nana B visited us last Monday and came with us one night.


Imagine our surprise when we woke up one morning to balloons landing on the streets in our development!

The neighborhood kids all came out to help the pilot and crew pack up the balloon.



Here's a balloon right over our house. It ended up landing in our neighbor's yard.


This Balloon Classic is a great event for the family, so if you ever want to experience it, let us know! Here are my 2 favorite pic's from the week.

What great pictures! Your boys will (hopefully) have great memories of the balloons in their hometown! I think I see a scrapbook plan in the making...
