Donald and I took the girls to see the Sky High Hot Air Balloon Festival at Callaway Gardens this year. We've never been before but think we'll add it to our yearly to-do list now that we've experienced it. I don't think I've ever been that close to a hot air balloon before. We had a picnic on the lawn while watching braver park visitors take tethered rides in the balloons. Then we headed over for some miniature golf and spider jumping before the big balloon glow at dusk. Seeing so many balloons lit up around the beach was spectacular! Our pictures just don't do it justice. I borrowed the picture at the top from Callaway's website because it does a better job of showing the balloons at night. Who knows...perhaps we'll even go for a ride next year!

| Check out that cool hairdo - that's a new style we've been practicing |
| Thanks to Emily, we have a shot of the two of us! |
| First launch! |
| Don't worry - they're just posing. There was no balloon attached to the basket! |
| Best seat in the house! |

| Both girls have mastered the back flip on the spider jump! |
| It was amazing - you could feel the heat all over the beach from all of the balloons! |
| The Harley Davidson balloon was really dramatic when it was all lit up. |
