Started off the weekend with an hot air balloon festival

There was a lot already up when we got there...

...but we were still able to get in the thick of balloons still on the ground.

Left the house at 6:30, but we were not disappointed.

Sam's been staying with Sara, Dre and fam for the past 4 weeks while he works on a project in Colorado Springs.

Surrounded by balloons

Elly liked the view

Cade loves announcing "Uncle Sam" whenever Sam enters the room...a big improvement from being that scary guy Cade once thought Sam was!

Nick getting some wrestling in.

Got back in time to watch GameDay and see all 4 Coug flags flying....Go Cougs!!!

On Sunday, we went to Farrish for some fishing.

The boys tried hard, but came up short in the fish department

Elly and Cade kept busy playing with the worms...

...climbing on the fence...

and going for a walk.

Mac and Sam got some paddleboating in...doesn't Mac look like such a big boy in this pic?!

Checking out a new fishing spot

Cousins

Might as well give the little ones a shot at it

Daddy's little girl
Sam's on his fourth and final week for a project in Colorado Springs and we're SO excited to have him back home on Thursday!
