Up, up, and away!

This weekend my good friend Jacob and his fiancee Andrea came into town to visit us. We took them to see the Hot Air Balloon Race. They had activities for kids as well, including pony rides, rides in a "barrel wagon", and dog shows. Ava liked watching the dogs herd ducks. It actually was pretty amusing. She particularly liked when the dog herded the ducks up and down a slide, into a baby pool full of water.

Waiting for the balloon race to begin:

And they're off...

Riding the pony. Ava thought she was big stuff. I guess she's been getting plenty of practice on her new horse at home!
