Our Final Fiesta


Attending the balloon fiesta on a night that it's too windy for the balloons ---$30
Eating hot dogs, nachos, hummus (Haley's choice of fair food), cotton candy, and funnel cake with friends ---PRICELESS!
By the way, Dan, hummus is not cheese...it's chickpeas!

So, our fabulous friends joined us for an evening at the balloon fiesta. We opted for the park-n-ride and riding a school bus may have been the highlight for the entire evening for Ellie and Josiah. When we arrived at Balloon Fiesta Park we started eating right away. We indulged in hot dogs, nachos, funnel cake, cotton candy and a turkey leg. Of course it ended up being too windy to put the balloons up for the evening glow but many of the hot air balloon pilots got their baskets out and shot flames up into the sky and that was pretty cool. Abigail was totally freaked out and wouldn't go near it but everyone else thought it was pretty neat. The night ended with a pretty good fireworks show, so at least we got that for our money. :) All in all, it was good times with good friends and lots of silly kids! :)

Ha! Did Dan tell you hummus was cheese? That is hilarious. It was good hummus, and I had a funnel cake, too, so I got my traditional fair food in. We had a great time with y'all!
