huff-n-puff


love the colors!!!


alright, alright... enough enough... i can hear the jokes from some of our KU friends already (jennifer & dave) the KU balloon is higher, we know... but it came back in 2nd...

the oldest balloon at the rally!


this was so neat. we were standing directly below the balloon. the kids were so excited to be right underneath a "real hot air balloon"... looks like a flower. they all had different shapes... i loved this one!

those of you that know me, know i love to go back to t-town every now and then to do things i did as a kid with my own kids...well, this one WOWS them all. huff-n-puff. yep! a hot air balloon ralley in topeka! it was soooOOOoooo much FUN! there were over 2 dozen hot air balloons that launched starting in the evening. it was fabulous! you could stand within 10 feet (or even closer) of the balloons and watch them take off. picnic dinners on blankets, bouncy houses and face painting for the kids, homemade sweet caramel popcorn...and lots and lots of enormous, colorful hot air balloons!!! definitely something to see!
