Tonight was leftover night because I really need the fridge cleaned out so I can get groceries again...I was warming each plate separately and a truck stopped at the end of our driveway, parked and people crossed over into the field. I was like, "What is going on out there....why would they just park across our driveway like that?" Anyway, I couldn't see this from the window I was looking out, BUT upon further inspection....
A hot air balloon, The Sapphire, landed in the field across from our house. A man had bought the ride for his wife's birthday and that was where the operator decided to land :)
I thought this was a pretty picture.
We ran across the street and shimmied under the wire fence (even those of us who already had our PJ's on...I guess you don't really care what you are wearing when a hot air balloon lands near your house : ) and the girls got to help pack up the hot air balloon....
...which included rolling all the air out of it...that was an ultimate experience :) We almost lost Kassi in the balloon, it was good she was wearing such bright jammies so we could find her.
Fun times!
They taught us all about hot air balloons and why people used to think they were aliens so they started bringing champagne with the ROYAL SEAL on it to show that they came in PEACE and that they were humans....that is always good to know. The balloon operators brought sparking grape juice for our group.
Due to all the rolling, it looks like Kenna has become a zombie...hehe!
Caught her at the perfect moment to claim that she is dancing to Thriller :P
