Balloon Festival and Winery

Last weekend, we had a girls day (and Preston :) with Mommy, Aunt Paige and Aunt Molly, and Grandma Diane. It was kind of a get together for Grandma's bday at the beginning of July and because Aunt Paige left to start her adventure in Costa Rica on Tuesday. We went to the winery near Indianola and then we stopped by the balloon festival to watch the hot-air balloons take off. It was a beautiful day and we had lots of fun!
Mommy, Aunt Paige, and Grandma Diane tasting the different wines. They were all so good. They said you could try five, but they were so nice and helpful, we definitely had around 10! Mommy even took 2 bottles home with her. Since Preston and Aunt Molly are not of age yet, they hung out and looked at the beautiful landscape.

It was a wonderful day to be outside!

Preston and Aunt Paige singing and dancing to the band. We found out his favorite move was the "booty drop."
We will miss you Aunt Paige!

Balloons are blowing up! Yippee- it was a little windy so we were a little nervous it was not going to happen.

So pretty

I like this one because you can see the big crowd
It was so awesome to watch all the balloons go up. They were all different colors and there were over 100 balloons.

We tried to get a pic with Preston and the balloons in the air, but it was hard :)
