Hot Air Balloon weekend!

We are beyond thrilled here at the Pitt house because we have officially seen our first hot air balloon of the weekend. My sister called to let us know she had seen some on her way into town, so we loaded up in the van to see if we could see them. We only saw one, but it isn't the official start of the weekend yet. I am going to pack the kids up tomorrow morning and see if we can see them launching for the media flights from 7 to 9 in the morning. Tomorrow night is an illumination, and we are hoping the threat of thunderstorms holds off. We desperately need the rain, but we don't need it THIS weekend.

Jenna is thrilled ... she just loves balloons. I remember how excited the older two would get about this weekend, and really ... the parents are as childish as the kids are!

Evan has already heard from his soccer coach; we haven't heard from McCayla's yet. I am not sure if it is still the same coach or not, because this is the time when kids can try out for the competitive, traveling leagues. I am not sure if we are going to go that route ... we have enough things going on with the start of school for all kids, soccer practices, dance lessons, and getting the Eman into something (not sure what yet ... karate, tae kwon do, SOMEthing to take out this extra energy).

And he is SOOOOOO ready to go to school. He NEEDS to go to school. He has reached that boredom phase.

Well ... one kid is the bath and the oldest is in the shower (Evan LOVES to take them; M is a different story), and bedtime is just around the corner.

Have a good weekend!
