The Reno Hot Air Balloon Races

This year, we arrived at the balloon races a little later than usual, but we were still able to park and hike on over to the balloons. This year, one of the balloon owners was super nice to us and let us get real close to the balloon. We even helped hold it down while they were getting in and out of the balloon before launching off. We all sat down on the grass and pigged out on chocolate doughnuts and hot chocolate while we watched the balloons all around us. We weren't able to go out and eat afterwards this year b/c Jacob had a soccer game immediately following. So, we bolted back to the car and sped off to the game. It was a really fun day!!
