surprise from the skies

Last night while the boys were playing outside, they spotted a low flying hot air balloon. Hot air balloons are not uncommon around here, in fact, last month we chased one down as it landed. They allowed Koby, Ky, Kals, Shel and I help roll up the balloon and shove it back into its bag. It was a very cool. Anyways, I digress. Back to last night. Last night the boys saw the balloon and because it was so low, they began to shout "Hi!" to the people and waving. Suddenly, they noticed something drop from the basket. They immediately took off through the yard trying to find the surprise. They searched through the pond area in our backyard (which is currently dried out, so that was nice) and their search eventually took them to the farm house behind us. It was there they found....




a very cute little stuffed monkey. They were so excited!
