We went to the balloon glow at Forest Park! The kids love the TV version of hot air balloons. So we thought they might enjoy them in real life. They were very excited! They loved every minute of it until... we got close... real close. The fire freaked them out. I mean it really freaked them out. Tears, terror is more like it. Admittedly took Shawn and I a little time to realize this is more then just toddler fear. The heat of the fires really got to them. Once we got out of the main fenced in area and put a few feet between us and the balloons then enjoyed them again and wanted to stay for the fireworks. We felt awful for not "getting it" sooner. Next year we'll enjoy it from a distance. Maybe the air is a better way to see a hot air balloon!
Still a bit timid from the balloons. Getting better.
Lexi was ready to pose!
Love their daddy!!!
I'll keep him safe from the fireworks and balloons!
