Weekend of festivities: Day 1

We had an unbelievable holiday weekend! It began Friday when we headed to Battle Creek to go to the Balloon Festival and Air Show. It was fabulous! We got to see the balloon launch, rode some carnival rides, ate dinner, saw an air show, and watched the balloon illume. Beautiful!! It was also Kids' Day, so the kids got to go to some booths with free activities and free take-aways. While there were a lot of people there, other than the carnival ride area it didn't seem crowded. Getting there and parking was easy. It was a GREAT event that we all loved!
