View from our back deck.
In previous years, when we weren't quite clued into what was going on, there was 1 single balloon heading towards our house. Simon and I had been on the deck having a couple drinks and relaxing after the girls were asleep, when out of the corner of our eyes comes a hot air balloon. This balloon was headed right towards our house. It misses our house by inches and lands in our front yard! Simon helped the guy land it!
Last year, the University of Michigan balloon tried to land in our yard, and Ruthie was singing the buckeye fight song (we have trained her so well) they changed course and landed up the street. Last years pics were amazing.
This year, was not the best if you want me to be honest in my review. It appears that they have changed the course a bit and we are no longer in the drop zone. Total bummer. Again, last year over 7 landed within 500 yards of our house! SO FUN!
This year was still great. I don't know who was more excited me or the girls!

The air show is awesome too as we live only a few blocks from a local small airport but they bring in the big dogs to fly some awesome stunts and they literally make our windows rattle! So fun.
