Up!

So I was tidying up after lunch, when I found some fabric sticking out from a closet. I don't remember having cleaned that closet, so I went to investigate. I found this awesome machine that had a light fabric hung over the top of a basket, and a movie a long side of it named "Up!". So I watched the movie. It was sad at the beginning, but the dogs made me laugh. Once I saw the house take off from the ground, I knew what I had found: my brother's hot air balloon. Time for a spin.

I took great care to lay the material out. I made sure everything was out of the way. I found this canister of gas on the ground next to the balloon. As I turned it on, the balloon expanded. But you know what? No flame. It never lit, but the balloon expanded and started to rise a little. It then sink back down. There was a hole. For the rest of the day I kept fixing holes only to find another. Eventually, I got up, but I didn't mind the holes. After a while I eventually started to sound like the dog in Up. High pitched squeaking. It made me laugh so much.

Last night, however, as I was in the air, I overheard mama talking about needing to find some clothes she had. I don't know why, but she could borrow some of mine if she wants. I'll just see if I can get my balloon up and out, so I can deliver them to her. It might take a while. I'll just keep trying over and over until I get out!
