hot air balloon festival

Last weekend it was the hot air balloon festival in Monument Valley. We didn't actually get to see any balloon take off because the morning we were going to go it was too windy, but one night they had a "glow." The balloons stay on the ground, but they light up every few seconds and glow in the night, it was pretty.
It was also fun because we could walk around by the balloons and see how huge they are. Spencer started asking the people with this balloon questions. He said "I don't know ANYTHING about hot air balloons." He asked all kinds of questions, and they were so nice to take time to answer.
We also got to see them fold it up and put it away, which was pretty neat.
Here is Spencer talking to the pilot. He has added one more thing to what he wants to be when he grows up- a hot air balloon pilot.
