Balloons and Tunes

Every year Grove City has an activity called "Balloons and Tunes" where a bunch of hot air balloons all blow up in Beulah Park.  They offer little rides up and back down for only $5 but unfortunately those rides sold out right before us in line! Darn.  It's a whole fair/carnival type of atmosphere with booths, games, bounce houses for kids, bands playing and cornhole (which I know is everywhere but it is definitely a major Ohio thing.  They even have it outside stores at the mall to make people go into those stores.  They're obsessed.  It's pretty fun though).  We rode over with our friends, the Madsen's, and met up with/ran into some ward friends (Gardner's, Elder's, & Beck's) and some of our neighbors.  Everyone sets up blankets and at the end of the night when it's dark all of the hot air balloons light up at the same time.  It was a beautiful night with perfect weather and it was free!

That looks like so much fun! I've always wanted to ride in a hot air balloon. Hopefully next year you can catch a ride (maybe with me in tow!)
