The Balloon Lady

The library had an end of the summer reading celebration. If you completed your goal of reading x number of books, you get free admission. The celebration this summer was The Balloon Lady.


The theme was Under The Sea, so she made tons of fun balloon characters.


This was W's reaction for a good portion of the show.
Or this.














E loved the show, of course. She was dancing away in her chair as she ooed and ahhed with each balloon getting blown up.




O was reading his Mike Mulligan book for half the show. He was somewhat interested, especially during crazy music or the crowd going wild.

After the show, E asked to see the Balloon Lady. She wanted to thank her for the show. How sweet! We got a picture with The Balloon Lady and her colorful rainbow. As we walked away, E whispered, "Mommy, why does she smell?"  Too funny.

What I'm most impressed with is the fact that she whispered that last statement.

Amazing.

Usually those comments are reserved for full voice announcements over in our neck of the woods.

You must share your secret.

We have our moments. Sometimes her booming voice is heard by all...usually at Walmart or something.
