On this sunny Saturday, we had a great evening on the Canal!
We attended the Watern Lantern Festival in Military Park.
Victor and Lenora were really excited to be "downtown".
Of course, Aunt Ashley and Uncle Ross had to make it even more fun with bubbles, catch and glow bracelets!
Ashley and Ross got there early and set up a nice area of chairs and blanket.
Lenora loved relaxing in the big chairs!
We had a good view of the canal and also a good amount of running around space!
Victor was hard at work writing his stories on his lantern!
Lenora operated the candles and tried to blow them out!
The warm evening was perfect for being outside.
Bubbles and bubble mixture were everywhere! LOL
Victor wanted to tell Aunt Ashley all about his design.
Ross checked out the food trucks and other festival areas.
The live music was one of the best parts!
Victor's lantern looked like a stained glass window when it was all aglow.
Emily opted for a simplistic, meaningful design with the messages of love.
Ashley embraced the full flower moon, writing a powerful spell on her lantern.
Victor was very proud of his work and therefore a little sad to see it float away.
Aunt Ashley helped Victor send his lantern off into the middle of the Canal.
Ashley knelt by the side of the canal to send out the lanterns.
As the sun set and the flower moon rose, the glittering lanterns shone over the black water.
Each magical lantern of hope, love, remembrance, encouragement and imagination flickered as it gently sailed the rippling surface.
Attendees were all there for different reasons, but shared a theme of hope and peace.
It was a great time of reflection.
Perfect twin night!
