We're Full of Hot Air

On July 3rd we went and celebrated our nation's independence by watching giant balloons inflate and float around the sky! Wahoo!

 Also, we had to wake up really early to see all this stuff, so it was pretty awesome that we saw it at all.  Okay, maybe just awesome that I got out of bed that early (with Nick's help, of course...seriously, rolling out of bed has gotten significantly more difficult over the last few months because of my shape and exhaustion level).

Here's a few of the shots!

 So many balloons!  It was a cool treat to see them inflate and take off!

Some of our personal favorites as they were just about done inflating.

Smokey!  As a hot air balloon!  (Wait, how does he prevent forest fires if he's full of hot air?)

 Such a pretty view to see them over our heads.

We love America, and we love all the fun stuff in Provo this summer.  Way to go for another score at this year's Freedom Festival, Provo!
