Alabama Jubilee

This Memorial Day Weekend we went to the Alabama Jubilee to see all the hot air balloons at the Point Mallard Park.  We were disappointed Saturday night because the wind prevented them from even inflating the balloons.  But we went back Sunday and it was worth it.  We met up with the Turnbulls and Schnorrenbergs and ate at Greenbrier Restaurant in Madison then headed to Decatur.

What a great family picture with the gorgeous balloons in the background.  As you can tell looking at Sam's cheeks, it was hot Sunday afternoon.  When we pulled in the parking lot the temperature read 86 degrees.

Sam loves curling his tongue.  He took just a minute away from playing with Noah to show Ashley how he does it.  What a funny guy!

Me, Ashley, and Amy enjoying some girl time...

That's us, way up there in the sky.  And yes I was able to climb up into the basket all by myself even though I'm 9 months pregnant.  I would have loved to have seen what I looked like...in all my heaviness.  :)

I took this picture of us while we were in the air.  You can see in Sam's eyes he's having a blast.  He was a little scared when they lit up the fire, but other than that he had fun.

Noah and Sam were showing off their "trading cards".  The balloon we rode was called Desperado and had a little info on the back of the card.

This was so much fun it will definitely become a family tradition.  Feel free to look here for more photos.
