Highland Village Hot Air Balloon Festival

The girls and I went to the 26th Annual Highland Village Hot Air Balloon Festival last weekend (Dave was in China, so we needed to distract ourselves somehow!).  It was such a neat experience!  We got to the park (it was held at one very close to our house!) at 7 a.m. for the pancake breakfast and to watch balloons take off and land.  The girls thought it was really cool to see the balloons so close....

 Rise and shine!

 I have no idea who this guy is...I was really just trying to take a picture of the balloons taking off!

There were about 10 balloons that were in the "race" and flying toward the finish line
