We've lived here for two years and this year, finally, we made it to the "Color the Skies" festival. I'll freely admit that we hadn't been before because the balloons launch at 6:30am. (I don't usually like to acknowledge that there IS a 6:30 in the morning. . .) However, this year we all went to bed early (or tried) so that we could go enjoy the sight. We picked up doughnuts and headed over to the park. What a fun morning. The balloons were able to launch beautifully, the kids were on a sugar-high from doughnuts and choco milk (not to mention the high from free toys, free hand-outs from vendors, and free sunshine and cool breezes!)
Daddy & the kids:
The first one is away. . .
The kids were amazed by the fire:
Anika & Andrew in front of the myriad of colors:
Another one goes up. . .
. . . and another. . .
And away they go. . .
Kathryn wasn't cooperating but here we are on our way out . . .

You DID get good pictures! How can you not, though, with the blue sky and vibrant balloons? Totally worth the pre-dawn wake-up call, huh?
