Stauffer Family Vacation

Friday August 15th

We left from Curt's Grandma's house and headed up to my Grandma's Cabin in Ogden Canyon for our Stauffer Family Reunion. 

After hanging out and setting up we headed over to the Balloon and Arts Festival. 

Debbie bought Aleana a wrist band to go on the blow up toys and we all took turns taking her.  I think we had as much fun as her. 

After dinner we went to see the Balloons be launched. We were slow and only saw the one.

Aleana was scared of the fire and the fans so it was good we only watched one.

Our little family

She did love waving at the balloons as they floated into the sky and for the next week her favorite phrase was "bye balloons"

Some of us got up the next morning to see the balloons be launched of again. 

I loved being able to walk around and see the balloons be blown up an take off.  We also got to see some of them come back and land.

These two had a lot of fun playing together. 

 They did fight a bit since neither of the slept well.   

We sent the afternoon at Willard Bay playing in the water and it Kayaks.  

We all had a lot of fun especially these two.  

That night we fought the crowds and went to see what they call the moon glow. It was pretty!  I thought it was neat that they would light up the balloons to the beat of the music.  

We had a good time and did not have much fighting.  It was nice to get away even though we did not go far.
