Balloon Fest 2012

In our community the Balloon Fest is annual summer tradition.

It is a couple of days worth of over 65 hot air balloons that fill the sky, family festivities, live music, food vendors and fireworks.



When we wake up on Saturday mornings balloons are already up in the air in front of our home.


It makes a fun summer weekend, my Mariah & I head over to the festivities and I stay with her long enough until she meets up her friends.


Deb, Brooke's dads partner, invites us over to her annual Balloon Fest celebration party across the street in a prime location to all the festivities.  Music fills the air and we sit together watching the fireworks display brighten the summer night sky.

I wonder if Keith knows in heaven that we have let bygones be bygones and have become friends for Brooke? 

After the fireworks dancing begins. Brooke and Deb get jump into line dancing that had everyones attention. You see, Brooke is quite a dancer!  She has rhythm and moves like her daddy and captures attention like he did, too.
