Balloon Fest






Last night was the first night of the balloon festival at John Rudy County Park, which is behind our house. So, we had invited over the Yergo side of the family for a barbeque. We had grilled chicken (best ever! mmmm....), cheeseburgers, corn on the cob, salad, pasta salad, coleslaw, pudding salad, pretzel salad, rice pudding and smores.


We had a great time visiting and balloon watching, eating and relaxing. When it got dark, some of us walked down to the park to watch the firework display. It started a little late, but it was nice. The kids were totally thrilled with it, and even Dominic thought they were alright by the end of the show. This being his real first experience with it- he just wasn't so sure about it at first! All in all, the evening was a hit, and perhaps this will become a family tradition.
