Y’all. I TOTES rode a HOT STINKING AIR BALLOON! *steps away from the caps lock*
 |
Hot air balloon, much?
Is there awesome in that? THEN YES!
I went to Evo Conference last week and left inspired.
AS I ALWAYS DO WHEN I LEAVE EVO.
But… HOT AIR.
When I make my bucket list, I will get to cross-off ride in a hot air balloon.
Cuz homies – THAT TOTES GOT DID!
And I feel it was fate that my ballooning partner was the adorable and crazy-fun Karina. You know… The Bucket List Girl!
Who is Candle Warmers? They are a company that sells flameless candles. You get the light, beauty, and smell of a candle, but without the danger of an open flame. I have a plug-in in my bathroom. Mine looks different, but you get the idea…
Unlike a candle, kids can “work” a Candle Warmer – with the simple flip of a switch.
CASE IN POINT… I wrote a post about Lucy’s infatuation with flames back in 2010. Here’s a section of that post:
- … no counter/island [even if it is the size of a king size bed] will keep a curious toddler from climbing atop and getting to a candle… a counter SO large, in fact, even Mom has to climb on the counter to reach said candle.
- Keep in mind — kids watch what you do. They do what you do. Say, for example… climb on LARGE counters and “pway wif a candwl wike Mama.”
- Paper towels can be good… and also very bad, depending on their purpose. Additionally, paper towels are quite flammable and when they catch fire over a candle’s flame… they look like flaming snowflakes falling UP.
With our Candle Warmer, Lucy can just flip a switch without risking her life AND our home.
Next on my list? This:
I LOVE LAMP!
So.
A BIG thank you to Candle Warmers for helping me check-off an item on my bucket list before it is even written AND for making canlde-like things my kids can “pway wiff”.
*I was not compensated for this post. Candle Warmers gifted me to a ride in a hot air balloon and while I am sure they hoped I would share about them, it was not required of me. This post is shared out of the pure excitement of my own heart. PEACE.

I love Candle Warmers and the crew they sent to EVO. I have a beautiful candlewarmer coming my way and I can hardly wait. So glad you loved the balloon ride.

Oh my gracious … that is beautiful. Not gonna lie though, I truly almost got sick at the scene where you looked down at the road & tiny people. Phew. Don’t look down, don’t look down, don’t look down … I feel so silly for being a scaredy cat just by watching the video! I. am. lame.
