Ice Storm in Wausau, WI

It’s official- winter is here for good! I feel spoiled with all of the warm weather we’ve had in the last two months- it definitely hasn’t felt like a normal Wisconsin winter yet.

But yesterday’s ice storm, which is now turning into a full-blown snowstorm, is changing that fast.

This weekend we went to the Monster Truck show at Marathon Park in Wausau! The entire park was packed- it seemed like all of Wausau was there!

Taste N’ Glow Balloon Fest Wausau, WI Part 2: Glow Fest

I can’t decide what was more amazing- seeing the hot air balloons lift up into the clear blue sky, or seeing the balloons light up the night in time to music!

Both events were so incredible. If you didn’t get a chance to read Part 1 and see the amazing images of the balloons in flight, check it out here.

Taste n’ Glow Balloon Fest Wausau, WI Part 1: Lift Off

When I heard about the Taste N’ Glow event just outside of Wausau, I was so excited to see hot air balloons in person. I am so glad we went! It was a much bigger event than I anticipated, and I’m still in awe of the community of people it took to get this event to take off (pun intended).
