Hot Air Balloon Festival in Panguitch





We decided to get out of the heat and headed up to Panguitch Lake this past weekend with a few of our friends. It was so nice to get out of the car and smell the beautiful smell of the pine trees and the mild temps! We stayed at the Todd's cabin and had such a great time! On Saturday night Panguitch held their annual Hot Air Balloon Festival. They line tons of Hot Air Balloons on Main Street and blow them up. It was so cool to get up close to them and see the fire and how big they are. Some of the kids didn't like it too much being that close! We had a blast playing games and eating a ton of junk! The kids played so well together; they were all great! Thanks so much to the Todd's for inviting us. On Sunday morning we were just hanging out and we found Maddie in the toilet! She loves seats lately and apparently this is the coolest seat in the house. She just wanted to hang out there and it was the funniest thing ever!!

How fun. You guys always seem to be where the party is at. Too bad we have to wait until August to party with you guys. We're counting down the moments until it is here. And I love that picture of Maddi. I can't believe she wasn't mad once she got in and realized she was all wet in her clothes. That is one Jeff will have to see. It would make his skin crawl. Too funny.

I am DYING over that photo of Maddie in the toilet! I don't know if I would be screaming of laughter or of the germs! Eeek!

What a fun adventure for you family. You do a lot of that. :) Good for you! And congrats on the 5K! That is a great accomplishment! One of these days I might join the excitement...

We are going to have to remember this next year! My family would love to see that! They have something similar in the valley in Ogden! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! But staying up late playing games and eating junk is always fun!;)

Hah!! I found you. Now I can live vicariously through your blog!! just kidding but it is so fun to meet you and I love your spunky personality. Jess, and everyone keeps talking about this fun Mandy girl and now I finally got to meet you! I saw that you would leave comments on most of the people I would leave comments and I would ask, who is this girl?? Now I know! I'm private, so if you want in on my life you can email me your email at suzadamson@hotmail.com. Let's really get the kids together again. Boston was just breaking the ice but I think next time, he HOPEFULLY won't be so shy :). By the way, the picture of your sweet little Maddi is so classic. Memories!

I am laughing out loud at that pic of Maddie! Hilarious. Caroline is way into 'seats' too, and I'm hoping she doesn't find our toilet, I don't know that it would be that clean!! What a fun getaway, you party animals..

anne said...

O man...sorry, but that's kind of gross (Maddi in the toilet). I guess there's nothing you can do but take a picture and laugh. At least you know hotels clean their toilets...a LOT.

Katie said...

Oh my gosh - that picture of Maddie is so funny! I'm so glad you grabbed your camera before fishing her out!
