Here are some that we've enjoyed so far.
First was the Bluegrass Balloon Festival:
This festival brings about 70 balloons together onto one field for various activities that range from glows, tethered rides, airplane shows, food, kids games and events, to bluegrass music and skydiving demos.
Here's the Harley Balloon and ya know, we just had to get a picture.
Jed's loving the trike. He's hoping it could be our next family vehicle.
The skydiving demo from the Army.
Cyndi loved seeing all the balloons and their gorgeous colors went lit up. Ella got a little nervous with the balloons firing all around her, but in the end, she saw how pretty it was.
Her favorite balloon was the birthday cake since her birthday was coming was in a few weeks and she thought the balloon cake was for her.
Then we went to the St. James Court Art Show:
This is one of the most popular Art Fairs/Shows in the country. There are literally 500+ different vendors with art that ranges from traditional to insane.
This Humpty Dumpty was a favorite. We were so sad that we didn't get more pics, but our camera battery died. Boo. Well, there's always next year and we definitely plan on going again.Lastly is Colorfest held at Bernheim Forest:
This celebrates all things outdoors and all things Fall.
We loved painting a pumpkin and see great potential in the Pollack style for little Ella.
This hay maze was by far the favorite. We had to drag Ella away, she would have stayed in there the whole day.
There was a really neat music section that used percussion and then "found" instruments. Jed was master at the wind tube. Ella just thought it was a spy glass.
We all loved the little dock over the pond. The water was so green that we had a lot of fun with reflections.
We miss ya all and wish you could join us on these fun adventures.
