Balloon Launch 2015

 Once a year Mark & I love on the dangerous side and roll the girls out of bed before 6 am to go see the balloon launch at the Art & Air Festival.  It is always worth it (but we still feel a little crazy).  Heidi loved waving to the balloons this year.








 This year's special balloons were one bee (last year it was a set of 3), a butterfly and Smokey the Bear!  Smokey was definitely Heidi's favorite - and a very timely reminder as there were many wildfires raging in Washington & Oregon last weekend (we're glad we went on Saturday morning, Sunday morning was very, very smokey!)

 Allison & I did 'art' on Sunday afternoon - we started with chalk painting and then Allison wanted to do water colors.  We both made several hot air balloon pictures but this was my favorite of hers:
