Up, up and away. . .

We were reading in our AAA magazine in Washington before we headed to Utah. One of the articles had things to do in the summer in different areas and one of them was the Provo Freedom Festival Balloon festival--it was to be starring a special balloon from Belgium--Darth Vader!! So we had to go!


We used to go when we were kids. Peyton, Addison and I dragged my parents out of bed at 5:30 to go see the balloons. We couldn't get Joe out of bed :(


It was a beautiful morning and we had a lot of fun!


After launch. . .


This flower one is Addison's favorite!

May the Force be with You. .


Peyton's favorite--of course.


We saw flying pigs :)


And the tallest balloon in the world. A Coke bottle. Although it couldn't launch as there was no where that it could land with enough clearance.


Nobody was to ornery, even if it was early!
