Spencer was supposed to be on shift, but was able to get permission from his sergeant to miss briefing and the first hour of work to come to the balloons and breakfast! We were also lucky that Spencer got us fantastic parking! We parked behind the Police barricade right by the park! If you've ever tried to park for those balloons you know what I mean. We usually have to get there pretty early, park several blocks away and then walk to the park.

Spencer's uncle and cousin fly the Bank of American Fork balloons for the festival, so we get to be right up close and personal and it makes it so much fun!
helping hold the balloon open while it was inflating
The balloon almost inflated.
My mom was talked into going for the first time ever and she loved it!
Sadie wasn't so sure about the loud & hot fire bursts to get the balloon up.
The Darth Vador balloon was here this year so we stopped and got a picture with him.
Sadie wasn't so sure about him either...

I'm SUPER jealous! What a fun time you guys always have for the 4th of July! Next year, put it on your calendar that I'm coming with my kids to see the balloons with you! I love the picture you took with Darth Vader. You both look super cute. And so does Darth ;)
It was fun. Worth getting up at 5:20 a.m.
