We got up early to go to Skyfest again this year. We got my parents to go too, along with Desiree and Loni. We thought the balloons weren't going to be able to take off because of wind but luckily they did. On Friday I looked out my kitchen window and saw a balloon so I took Crue, Lara, amd Halee on the back deck and there were a bunch more. They were flying pretty low and were so close to our house that you could see the people in the baskets. Here are some pictures from Saturday.
Dad and Jared watching the balloons inflate. (Jared loves to have his picture taken.)
A bunch of balloons. There's two guys in the bottom right of the picture. It took both of them using everything they had it seemed, to hold the rope attached to the top of the balloon on the left. Probably to keep it from bumping the others too much.
Goodbye party. Crue still says bye-bye every time he sees pictures of hot air balloons.
There was a flying school that had a booth with this plane set up that the kids were allowed to climb in. We let Crue in long enough to get a picture and play with the controls for a minute because there was a bunch of other kids waiting.
Loni helped get Crue in and out of the plane while I got the pictures. I love Crue's expression in this one! I have no idea what he was doing or looking at.
There's an RC airplane club that flies their planes after the balloons take off. We watched it a little this year. It was pretty cool. The red and yellow plane in the picture above is huge - the wings are about 8 ft across!
More of the planes.

Crue took Desiree's camera and was "taking pictures" of everyone. It was hilarious! His face in this picture is about what it looked like every time he took one (or thought he did).
I'm shocked too - Grandma holding Cooper. Okay, not really. I'm not always the best at taking pictures of Cooper (I was the same way with Crue when he was a baby) so I made sure I got one of him having fun too!
