First Day of Summer 2012

Our morning in pictures (starting at 6 AM) (with a little commentary too)

Kamron assisting in balloon inflation by holding the fan.

One good lookin fan holder!
Other balloons nearby

The inside of the balloon

Here we are!!

Up Up and Away!!
The view below...

That's my toaster car down there!

View of Park City
Other balloons

Our Shadow
Our shadow again...



Bird that looked like tiny deer below us (good thing I could zoom in on this)

Here are the birds before the zoom in
A robin perched in the grass
Cheese!!


This is a picture the tracker took from the ground.  That's us in that balloon!
Here we are again!!


I love this picture of our balloon!
We're the balloon on the top right
That's our tracker guy on the ground as we come in for a landing...
Whoops! We landed in a not so good spot - Kamron had to jump out and help us cross the road
Don't you love his matching clothes?? (This must be where my kids get their sense of fashion from...)
These are the balloons still in the air after we had landed
Here Kamron is helping roll up the balloon.  What a stallion! (I think the balloon dudes appreciated his muscles!)
Here everyone is helping to pack the balloon back into the bag.  It was a crazy job!

Traditional toast after a successful flight (Apparently ALL balloon companies do this world wide)


I got off work early wednesday night, we got take out from Olive Garden and headed to the Best Western Landmark Inn in Park City. Fabulous hotel! Full breakfast buffet for free!  Loved it.  We did a lot of swimming at the indoor pool (and I even learned to swim!!)  We also spent lots of time in the hot tub.  It was a fantastic overnight getaway.  Much needed.

And this here has nothing to do with the balloon or hotel at all - it is a Happy Anniversary cake my girls made us. Cute kids.
