Not really going anywhere- but still cool!


At the farm by my house, Big Brothers & Big Sisters does a fundraiser every year.  We have always wanted to go, and this year it was rainy, but we found a break in the rain and walked down.  Usually it is just farm type activities, but this year they also had a hot air balloon.


I don't know what Emily is pointing at, but they were just riding in that hot air balloon to her left.
As you can see it is tethered, so they just went up and down but still.......pretty awesome.
Here are some of the other highlights:
toad racing was Evan's favorite (poor toads)

the concentration on that boy's face, he was so proud of himself when he could catch it and throw it back to Kyle

this was a daunting task, the lady wanted her to hold still while the farm was going full force all around her

not the best butterfly I've seen, but definitely the cutest canvas!

I think he could have gone faster if he had straightened his legs and pushed off the ground a little! Poor pony.
As soon as she won it she realized she had sealed it's fate, but then remembered that Skyler Sullivan had a birthday in two days and she has a fish tank, so she borrowed fish food from Paige, and kept it alive til she could deliver it.
