Hot Air Balloon Festival

Last weekend we went to the Balloon Festival with Mamaw and Page. Jack talked about going to see the balloons all day and he was so excited to see the balloons "go up, up, up!"  Mamaw and Page used to take us to the balloon festival when we were little, and it was special to be able to have them with us for Jack's first visit.

Ice cream- a great way to start our afternoon!

Second stop- the bounce houses!

Being silly with Page.

"Mamaw, you want a veggie straw?"

Watching the balloons being inflated!

"Look Page!  Up there!"

"Bye bye balloons!"

This boy loves his Mamaw-Page!

Taking a little rest and watching the rest of the balloons lift off from the blanket.

Tricycle Boy!

We have had some beautiful evenings lately, so we decided to head outside and play for a bit before bed. Jack wanted to ride his tricycle- his little legs are finally long enough to work the pedals by himself (kind of!).

Checking out the bell...

Whoa!

Yay!  Look at me!

Future Musician

This boy loves music! He loves to sing and dance, and he really loves to play instruments. We made weekly trips to the Children's Museum over the summer and Jack always ran to the area with the drums. Maybe we'll see him on stage someday!

Starting out on the xylophone...

On to the big drum!

Now to the small ones...

The Jack and Makenna show!
