Plano Balloon Festival

We went to the Plano Balloon Festival when Leland's parents were here visiting. We went on the Saturday night when they had the lighting of all the hot air balloons. It was quite a unique show. This was Parker's 2nd time going to this and Nathan's 1st time. Nathan was sure fascinated with the balloons lighting up and watching all the people around him. It was so packed with families that it was hard to move around let alone finding a good place to see the balloons all lit up. At the end of the lighting show they had fireworks, which I was worried how the boys were going to react. In the past few years around 4th of July Parker got scared at fireworks, but this time he loved them! I thought Nathan was going to be scared too, but he amazed me! He was so into everything happening around him that he just sat next to us on the ground with his mouth open taking it all in!

We had a great time and the boys were up late, until almost 10:30pm, which is the first, and they slept in the next morning which mom and dad greatly appreciated too!!
