There is a hot air balloon race every year in St. Louis. The night before the race they have a "balloon glow" where all of the balloons are lit up on display, and you can walk around and see them up close. They were beautiful! Every few minutes an air horn would blow, and they would all light up at the same time. There were some really neat balloons! There was an Energizer Bunny balloon, a bag of popcorn balloon, a pepsi can, and a birthday cake just to name a few! After walking through the balloons we all shared the girls' first funnel cake, and it was GOOD. They ended the evening with a fireworks display. It was a fun time!

AnnaKate and Mommy walking a LONG way to see the balloons. It was worth the walk!

The birthday cake balloon. The Energizer Bunny was next to it, but it was so big and hard to get a picture. You can see a little of it to the right here.

The balloons being lit up at the same time.
Emma & Mommy~ Emma was a little scared at times. I could understand too...it's kind of overwhelming being under all of those balloons!

This balloon was being sponsored by the Children's Hospital.
