A balloon fell from the sky

I have been wanting to write about this for a few days but have been rather busy with getting ready for a yard sale and Brad helping his friend bale hay and all. But, the other day it was like the 8th AJ and I were coming up our drive and with the pigs being at the pond in front of the house we always come to a stop so AJ can say hi or bye, and on this day AJ kept saying mom blue, well I thought he was talking about the horse Boo because he isn't always easy to understand when he gets excited. So I thought Brad had gotten boo out of the field and brought him up front for AJ but I didn't see Brad or the horse. He kept saying it blue, blue so as we stopped to see the pigs. We got out cause AJ was so excited and he isn't running towards the pigs pen he is running in the yard the other direction. I see he is bending down and thought what in this world.. AS he comes running back towards me draggin a string with a balloon on the end.

He was saying balloon. I thought how in the world would a balloon be in our yard he hasn't had any. Well as he hands it to me there is a tag at the end of the balloon saying it was a boy scout balloon release and that if it was found to please the tag back to this boy scout.

Now just a few days prior to this I was watching the news about a boy sending a balloon and Queen Elizabeth had gotten it and wrote him a letter. LOL I am by NO means a queen to the world but I am at my house. So I went and bought a card and have mailed it out. Hopefully we will hear from him which I included our blog site address so maybe he can find out a little about where it landed. On our small farm.

So here is a little hello from the Kelley Farm to Nick.

I remember hoping when I sent a balloon when I was little it would be returned, I also remember going to Florida and sending a message in a bottle hoping someone would write me back. LOL but never got a response from either. So hopefully this makes Nick happy and he will remember someone responded.
PLUS I wasn't having such a great day so it just goes to show things happen for a reason.

THANKS NICK FOR THE SMILE YOU GAVE ME AND THE EXCITEMENT YOU SENT AJ FOR FIND A BLUE BALLOON IN OUR YARD.

LOVE TO YOU ALL,
THANKS FOR LISTENING

That is so much fun. I remember doing that as a child and I never got a response either.
