Blimps? Did you say blimps?

Through Juniors, I signed the family up for the FAM walk, along with many of our friends.  The boys were not happy with me as we did the 2 mile walk around downtown San Clemente, until we stopped for ice cream on the return to the start of the race.  The boys received swag bags and balloons, so it ended well for them!  

The balloons were full of helium and on day 2 the boys decided they wanted to make them into blimps.  The balloons were hovering a bit and no longer floating to the ceiling, so it just made sense.



Here's Matt's finished product!  He was so excited to put the flag on it, and attempted several different "people" (including Legos) in the bottom, but the balloon wouldn't stay afloat.  He had a blast with it for a few days while it would still take flight.
