Up We Go Into the Wild Blue Yonder.....

This weekend was Strassenfest here in Jasper.  If you have ever been here you would know Jasper has a large German Heritage.  And each year there is a large German festival which is really just a lot of beer and great German Food.  

We were out of town Saturday thru Sunday morning, so Friday night we decided to eat our way around the square.  We had corn on the cob, chicken  hearts, pulled pork, lemon shake-ups, cotton candy, a giant cream puff,  and sno cones.  

Before our eating binge, we went to the Remax Balloon Race.  Hot Air Balloons.  I really got to try my new camera out and it was awsome!   I love the sweep panorama feature.  Here are some photos:  













  

Pretty Neat!

Please keep Joe and I in your prayers this week.  We start our Foster Parent classes on Saturday!

That is so cool! Strassenfest has evolved since I last attended - before kids! Maybe next year we'll take the kiddos!

Carrie - Do you have a van? I swear you have to have a van to go to the balloon race. Joe was worried they wern't going to let us park our G6 when we got there. We are now looking at Van's so we can take our foster kids next year.
