Dragons in the Sky



 Hi friends, Little Boy here to tell you about something that happened in our yard last weekend. You aren't going to believe this so I gots photos from mama's camera to prove it. Our yard was invaded by .....Dragons!   Yes, you heard me right, there were fire breathing dragons.


 At first they were off in the distance and didn't seem too horrible.

 But then they started getting closer, and closer. We kitties kept a close eye on them. Of course mama was taking photos cause that what she does.

 Then they gots really close and started roaring and breathing fire. We told mama to run but she kept taking pictures. She said she needed a recent photo for Freda's Photo Time.

 Then things got really scary, you won't believe what I saw.

 The dragons were trying to eat the hoomans. They came down from the sky and the silly hoomans ran right to the dragons. See the hooman inside the dragon. Maybe the others are trying to get him out.
Mama don't you go over there, we don't want that dragon to eat you.

All you hoomans be careful and watch out for the fire breathing dragons. They are everywhere.

And they are sneaky too!

Don't say we kitties didn't warn you.

Mama here. Last weekend was the annual Balloon Stampede. The balloons take off near the fair grounds and fly over to a large field behind our house. This route takes them directly over our yard as they come in for a landing behind our house.

For more please visit Freda's Photo Time, Camera Critters and Bozo's Pet Pride.

Little Boy OMD BOL BOL, you are so brave. I would have pooped if I saw those, they are sooooooo big. I am glad they didn't want to eat kitty cats.

Lovey Freckle Belly

Cathy Kennedy said...

They use to do balloon runs across the city, but I don't believe have done in this in recent years. I always loved seeing them fill the sky - so brightly colored! I love you photos and your I thought it was funny how you had your kitty relay the story - really cute! =D

Pam said...

Be still my heart- I long to go up in a hot air balloon.. drifting above the tree tops.
Gorgeous shots, Judy.

The Japanese Redneck said...

OMG, if they came over our house like that

1st we would have to fix fences
2nd catch horses
3rd call the vet

maybe not in that order

SweetMarie said...

Your Little Boy is adorable! What a great report he gave! These photos are just stunning! I just love the last shot with the leaves and sun is making every color even more brilliant! What a fun event over your house!

Icy BC said...

Beautiful balloon shots, and fun story, Judy!

I love the last shot with its beautiful lighting and shine!

Ann said...

since our balloon accident, I am quite weary of them. Turns out, the idiot pilot took drug. Kill himself is his business, he killed so many.

Al said...

Great post and photos. We have a hot-air-balloon festival every September and it provides many great photo opportunities.

OMGoodness, that is sooo cool. They are very pretty. We hardly see them out here. However, one once landed in my brothers yard by mistake and the people were very crabby!!
