Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic

Elle, Hudson and I woke up early to attend the Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic again this year. We pretty much just roll out of bed, and go as is (notice the bed head); but seeing all of the balloons across the Boise skyline is worth it. Elle and Hudson just love it. We took lots of pictures, and watched as each balloon went up, up, up into the sky. Then, when the last balloon had taken off, we made our way into the park to see if any returning balloons were offering free rides. And to Hudson’s delight (since he saw the first balloon, he wanted to fly in one), one hot air balloon was doing just that. So the three of us climbed in (a pregnant lady climbing inside a hot air balloon basket is quite comical) and flew. Hudson thought it was a little loud, but thoroughly enjoyed himself. All in all, it turned out to be a good—early—start to our day.
