This past week Elise and I have been going through literally thousands of photos so we can get a bunch printed and make some fun family albums. We came across a bunch from January, yes January, when we packed up and went to Irvine’s, Great Park Balloon . Elise checked it out and thought it would be fun… she was right. If you haven’t gone, set a date and go! It’s FREE and amazing. The kids absolutely loved it… and the “big” kids loved it too. With huge fields to run around, throw a frisbee, kick a soccer ball or just lay out for a picnic, you can make a day of it. JohnPaul, Maggie, Sofia and Giuliana were amazed at this Big Orange Balloon (that’s what they called it) going up and down in the air. The balloon is actually the first of it’s kind in the United States. It’s not a “hot-air” balloon but is in fact a tethered helium balloon, 118 feet tall. It takes you up 400 feet and you can see for miles. Super fun and well worth it.
The clouds looked as though someone had painted them
Giuliana was only 4 months old here…
Without fail, JP and Mags always try to squeeze each other’s heads off in an attempt to pose for a picture
boo-boo’s heal much faster with transformer bandaids… they have special powers, yup
Sofia was content running around the inside of the balloon’s basket
On this photo I used a texture I shot of a cool fabric I found in balloon waiting area
John. Absolutely. Superb. Awesome. !!!!!!!!!
