The Gardens, Music, and Balloon Glow

We decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather Saturday and spend as much time outside as possible.  We started the day at the Botanical Gardens.  We have heard many amazing things about their current Lantern Festival and wanted to take a look ourselves.  They had a lot of dragons and Connor LOVED them.  The Gardens are always beautiful, but it was even more so with the display.  Of course we had to visit the Children's Garden.  Connor loved going down the slide and "exploring" the cave.  Anderson enjoyed the ride and fresh air!

Saturday night we went to a park by our house that was having a free concert and balloon glow.  We saw some of our neighbors there so Connor was thrilled to have playmates on the playground.  They also offered free margaritas, snow cones, and snacks...pretty cool! The band was a lot of fun and they played good music.  We got to be up close for the balloon inflation and glow.  Connor enjoyed watching the balloon go up, but kind of got scared when they started "glowing" because of the fire. What are we going to do with this kid? ;-)

We all slept good Saturday night!
