The weekend started off busy. I woke up early Saturday morning to write,

before heading to the pool for my son's swim meet. After the meet, we ran back home to pick up the jello salad I made for my daughter's gymnastics party, which was held at a local park. It was a gorgeous day- sunshine, warm weather, and a very high pollen count. We all came home from the park exhausted, with runny noses and itchy eyes. Regardless, we decided the perfect way to end a nearly perfect day was to go out for ice cream. It was on the way home from Baskin-Robbins that my husband pointed out a hot air balloon floating over the valley below our neighborhood. We made a quick run home to grab the camera and then parked the van about a quarter a mile from the house to take some pictures.
"Why don't we just walk there?" My daughter asked.
"Because we'll miss the hot air balloon," I explained.
Sometimes you've just got to slow down and enjoy the scenery, or drive as fast as you can to grab the camera before it passes you by.
