Balloon Fiesta III

We have always had to leave ABQ just before Balloon Fiesta.  This time we actually got o go to the event!

 Arrive before the sun comes up and you get treated to this breathtaking sight!

 Ahhh!  Brotherly love.

 The kids

The dad

 Trying to stay warm.  I couldn't resist this cute huddle.

We were right among the balloons as they were blowing them up. . .

 . . . until it got a little too squishy!!!

 Bitty Bees

 Gabriel with the popular Creamland cow.  They don't actually launch this balloon.

 The lion king.

 Do you see the POW-MIA balloon in the upper rightish?

Not to worry.  We got a close up.

 

Had to get this shot for Ty 

  We watched Humpty Dumpty being blown up and couldn't figure out what it was until it hit the skies. Careful Humpty Dumpty, you're getting a bit high don't you think.





Balloons everywhere!
