While their parents worked and played in Vegas ....



... Will and Xan went up in a tethered hot air balloon, a new feature at the Irvine Great Park that used to be the El Toro Marine Base (remember the base that was destroyed by aliens in the movie "Independence Day" with Will Smith" Yeah, well it's been destroyed by humans, thanks to the balanced federal budget ... I keep thinking how nice Rodney's commute would be if the Tustin air base and El Toro were still open, but I digress...). Apparently, the kids do not have a fear of heights, although I am not sure if Xan really knew what was going on. This was something Grandpa Mark really wanted to do with Will, so I hope they had fun!

Our kids call it "The Orange Ball." So every time we see it...they both start yelling, "ball, ball."
