Live the Moment: August 2009

Friday

Day 240: Balloons!!

Today was the first day of the Northwest Art and Air Festival. Every morning of the festival starts with a hot air balloon launch. There were so many balloons in the air; it was beautiful!

What would Jesus do?
I think he would go ballooning :)

This balloon came down so low that the people in it yelled "Good morning" to me :)
After Rob left for work, I went driving around the area. I saw all the balloon chase crews and even saw some of the balloons landing in fields. It was really cool :)

Day 226: Outside

A lone sunflower by the side of the road

Wasps made their nest in our weird birdhouse, so Rob dressed up in a lot of protective gear(assorted winter clothes, wish I had taken a picture) and knocked the birdhouse off the fence. It missed the bucket of water (oops) and somehow Rob's sandal got left behind.
