Balloons

There was a balloon festival near our house this weekend. We were able to see them from our house and saved tons of money.

This picture is taken from upstairs. The kids were really excited and running from room to room and shouting out how many balloons they could see.

There were quite a number of them up in a big cluster.
On Friday the wind was blowing in our favor and all the balloons started heading our way. On Saturday and Sunday none of them even came close so we were glad we got to see them on Friday!
This was taken from our kitchen window Friday night as we ate dinner.
This safari balloon landed just across the street in a vacant lot. A friend that lives in our neighborhood called and said that there were 2 landing close to her house.

This one was heading our way.

This was also taken from our kitchen window.

It continued over the side of the house was flying right over our backyard.

It was close enough to get a closeup of the people inside.

This one is a pirate one.
