Balloon Rally

We got up before sunrise today and headed to The Great Prosser Balloon Rally where we met up with Anja, Liisa, Mimmu and Iso. We arrived just as the first envelopes were filling up.You could get right up to the balloons and watch them take off. It was worth the loss of sleep.Helena all bundled up.Nora looking casual.Henry got to sit in the driver's seat of the fire engine parked at the airfield.Once all the balloons were up we headed to our favorite coffee shop for a hot drink. Nora and Henry had chai and split a toasted bagel.
We capped off the morning with the dog show. Nora has been looking forward to this all month. When we were talking about fall coming a few weeks ago she asked, "When is the dog show?"
