Heritage Foothill Festival

If you are a resident of the Treasure Valley I would suggest you not attend this festival next year (If they even have it!). I was under the impression that this festival has been part of the Valley's celebration for years... but let me tell you it's not! I basically got suckered into going to see an up and coming subdivision in the foothills! Bummer!

The had some fun stuff like sheep herding presentations and a small farmers market. But the main reason pulling me there was the tethered hot air balloon rides. And yep you guessed it... as usual in the valley the normal 30 -40 mph wind gusts were present so the balloon was grounded and packed up. So we watched the herding presentation again! =)


Hannah did enjoy getting her face painted and steered completely away from the clowns making balloon animals (Have I told you she is terrified of clowns ever since the Ringling Bros circus? Don't suggest going there with a toddler, there are some very old clowns that have been with the circus forever and are just creepy) so we walked the neighborhood looked at some model homes and enjoyed the beauty of the foothills. Not to mention the wonderfully glorious warm day!

It's supposed to be a flower??

Ooooh, sheep!! One of them seems naked... I want their warm wool to spin and knit. Looks like a fun time going to these festivals, or the so called festival near the model homes.
