This weekend, we took our Trailer up to the Yacht Club, and spent a few days with my parents. We wanted to see the Hot Air Balloon Festival in Eden. Well, the morning, we were supposed to go see them launch the Ballons, it rained, so that was off. But it did turn out to be a pretty nice day, and we went to some of the other festivities. At the Wolf Creek Ski Resort, they had booths, food, and fun. Bree's favorite thing to do was jump in the Blow Up Bouncing Castle!
Bree got in here, more than once.
We did ride the lift, to the top, and back down.
It seemed different riding without snow. Not to mention, that you usually ski down, and we had to ride it down also. But Bree squished between Chris and I for the ride :) Elle stayed below with Grandma, and Grandpa.
Bree and I bought some Hot Air Balloon Neckless'. 
When we got back to the trailers. It was time for dinner, before we were to head back to see the Balloon Glow. We've all been sick, but Elle really has a doozy of a Cold! 
Grandpa is cooking the steaks!
Elle, had been feeling blue all day. But once she got a hold of the Corn on the Cob, (for the first time), she was in heaven. She would take a bite and then look at Grandma, and say "Mmmmm". It was so cute. She did this after every bite :) She really enjoyed her Corn!
We got to the Park, and the Balloons were going up. We watched, as they inflated several of the Balloons. The girls thought it was Fantastic! 
Daddy and Elle!
Bree kept talking about those HUGE Balloons, way up HIGH!!!
Grandma, and Grandpa :)
And then today, it warmed up a little, so we decided to head out on the water. Adelle, showed up with the girls, and Sheldon. And eventually, Camber and Cory came too.
Elle fell asleep on Chris' lap for most of the ride. I hope that nasty cold goes away soon!!
We stopped, and sang Primary Songs, ate Snacks, and had a great time, just relaxing in the boat.
Libby and Bree, posing for a great Picture. They are the best of friends, and posed for this shot all by themselves, telling grandma, to take a picture of them :)
Bree, having Oh, so Much FUN!! We really enjoyed our weekend getaway!

Looks like you had so much fun. I love the story of Elle and the corn-on-the-cob. Sorry your first morning got rained out...we got rained out on our trip too. I remember the first year Doug and I were married we camped at South Fork and went to the Eden Balloon Festival. It was wonderful! I'm sure it's even bigger and better now. Hey, how come you weren't at your 20 year reunion at Wolf Creek? (he...he). Doug and the kids are going up to the Yacht Club today to go tubing with Camber and Cory. Too bad they missed you.
I'm glad Elle has some teeth so she can enjoy her corn. So much fun!
Fun!! Gotta LOVE Eden! I bet that festival is blast!!
I love hot air balloon festivals. We went to one in Maine when Spencer was a year old. We had a trip up scheduled and friends we were going to watch our kids, but the weather went bad and we didn't get to go. I scheduled another ride here in VA for our anniversary a couple months later, but a freak wind storm came up that day and we missed out again!! It is one of the things Darin really wants to do, so someday we will make it up!
I love your new picture! Cute, cute family!
