Saturday, we went to the California, MO first ever Balloon Invitational. We had heard about it from a friend on facebook (don’t you LOVE facebook!) anyway, we decided it sounded like a fun thing to do. I really like seeing the pictures of the balloons in Albuquerque, NM and would like to go to that someday.
It started at 7, we got into town early, but it was so hot, we didn’t want to sit around in the field waiting for 7. Killed some time in McDonald’s because they had a play place. Sure is funny the places you go when you have kids huh? It was cool and kept Kasey occupied for a while, so that’s what is important.
The first balloon to air up was the Missouri Lottery one.
There it goes!
The rest of them getting ready for flight.
Kasey wanted to go play games, but the games were all done. He sat down here
…. and then did his grumpy I’m mad at you pout!
The balloons were really cool in the sky.
I think there were 20 or 22 total. I am not sure I heard the total count and didn’t count them. 
I had no idea that something like this happened in Missouri! Who knew? (No one on facebook told ME!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun place to make some memories!
