We got up at 6:30 today and went out to the Gatesway Balloon Festival to watch them flying. We parked half a mile away and walked over, which was fine on the way there when it was cool but it was getting hot by the time we left. Have I mentioned I hate summer? Anyway, we saw 20-25 balloons, some right over us and some heading perilously into downtown, and that was way cool. Mom and I liked the giant pink Energizer Bunny balloon, Davey liked a hideous clown balloon, and Jack liked the tiedye t-shirt stand. We also saw the kids' friends Rosie and Noah. Their folks had parked clear over at the soccer fields and had a quite a walk back; they must be more adventurous than we are. Anyway, we're home and ready to go back to sleep. At least I am, lol.
