Fountain Hills is an awesome town about 50 minutes from our house - one of our favorite places to go. Every February they have Hot Air Balloons at their Great Fair. This is our second year going to the balloons and it's a fun tradition for us. We get up at 5:30 in the morning to arrive at dawn, the kids wear their pajamas and bring their blankets, and we eat our breakfast while watching the balloons go up all around us. I just love being outside with all the people, their dogs, and the beautiful balloons and scenery. Our little family of 6, plus one (jer), gets a lot of attention - at events like these we're practically the only ones there with kids... and
four kids - people are in awe, they love to watch us. I think it's awesome, I love my energetic crew.

One thing we really enjoy is watching the balloons dunk their baskets into the lake. I swear it it seems like they're going to get stuck in the water every time - but they never do. Very exciting.
