Yesterday (Saturday) morning we woke the girls up at 5:30am to go the the Plano Balloon festival they have this time each year. Jake went last year as a volunteer for the boys and girls club...but this was the girls and I's first time. It was pitch dark when we got there yet the parking lot was PACKED full this is such a big deal that hundreds of people will show up at 6am on a Saturday morning! The 'Glow' started at 6:30 where all the hot air balloons light up their fire in the dark...it was just beautiful! Although Jake and I were pretty disappointed that there were only 2 balloons out for the 'glow'...Jake said last year for the night time 'glow' there were over 20 balloons out...that would have looked just amazing, oh well. As soon as the sun came up dozens of trucks started pulling up onto the field and setting up their balloons for the 8:00am take off. It was just increadable to watch dozens of balloons getting set up and taking off into the air. We also got to hang out with the Elders (who provided yummy Shiplys donuts!). After the big take off a few balloons stayed on the ground and they opened the field up for everyone to go check the balloons up close! it was so wild!! they are HUGE and just beautiful! Then they had tons of bounce houses for the kiddos to play on and even Violet was brave enough to go on them! It was such a fun morning!
