Home Made Hot Air



For one of Matt's math classes, he has his students build hot air balloons. He made a smaller one as a demo and brought it home to try it out before flying them with his students. I was inside cleaning up after supper when I heard the shrieks of delight outside. I came out and saw what he was up to and decided to capture it on camera.
Here is Matt getting ready to fill up the balloon with hot air
Josh LOVES this heater because it has a blue flame. Here he is cleaning the dust off

Here is a really excited Darci...we had spaghetti for dinner. Can you tell?


Aria in sheer excitement




Getting the balloon filled with the hot air... We have lift off!





Doozer's joyful reaction to seeing it take flight














And then eventually it came down...and had a rip in it and had to be repaired.





Just another perk of being married to math teacher!
