A Biiiiiiizy Weekend

Last weekend we went to Bend and had an insanely busy two days.  The one thing I don't have are pics of is the Heaven Can Wait walk for breast cancer survivors that we did on Sunday.  My mom is two years cancer free!  Here's the rest of our weekend......

On Saturday morning we got up early to watch the hot air balloons launch for the Balloons Over Bend festival.  Too much wind.  They didn't launch.  We went back to Julane's, had a great breakfast and then went to watch Jayden launch his rocket with his Cub Scout troop.

After the rocket launch we went to the airport for their annual open house.  This stylin' pooch was sitting in the side car in the parking lot.
Checkin' out the Coast Guard helicopter...
On Sunday morning I wanted to skip the ballon festival and let the girls sleep in.  Then, it was Libby who was up at five and ready to rock 'n roll.  Julane checked the website and it looked like the ballons would launch, so we headed for the Old Mill.
That's one big bunny...

This one looked like it was going down in the river.  They floated with their basket on the water to entertain the crowd, and then took off again.  Impressive.
After the balloons we went downtown and walked in the three mile Heaven Can Wait walk for breast cancer survivors.  I'll have to get pictures from Julane.  After the walk we went back to Julane's and slept.  They boys got busy planning a party for Peyton.  She'll be one on Tuesday! My dad and Margie came to celebrate.  Where does a year go?
Peytie tackles a Ding Dong.  That's my girl.
It was good to be home.  Julane let me take a trike from her garage and guess who LOVES it? She keeps saying, "Ride my bike down to Nelson's house."  So ride she does.
