Kanab, UT

Kanab’s Annual Balloons and Tunes was a hit! The red cliffs were a beautiful backdrop to the colorful, floating, nylon envelopes. And the best part: my parents made the 10.5 hour drive from Las Cruces to meet us there!

Fortunately, because we have two early risers, named Ella and Miles, with us everywhere we go, we were able to see the launch on both Saturday and Sunday mornings. Although the wind wasn’t ideal either day, many of the balloons were able to take off high into the sky. The adults were just as enthralled as the kids were!

Between launches, we wanted to show my parents Peekaboo Canyon, where we had ventured off to just before Christmas a couple months prior. After our first trip, we had learned that we had only explored one of the two slot canyons so we were excited to return. We all piled in Scott’s truck: parents in the front, me sandwiched between car seats in the back and the drive in and out to the canyon was some of the best time we had that weekend!
