Bring your kids into Benny's Pizza Pub & Patio on Tuesday nights…especially if they axolotl questions! I’ll chit chat with them while I twist their very own custom balloon creation!

Another great school visit with Sedgie the Hedgie! Highland Elementary School was built in 1895!!! It’s a gorgeous building and has so many stairs! My wagon gave me a workout today. 💪

In-school field trips always bring such joy! I get to do this at various Columbus City Schools Early Childhood special needs classrooms this year. I love hearing teachers say, “One student was having a rough day and your program sure turned their day around,” or “That student handled themselves really well during your program.” 🦔

Between programs, Sedgie the Hedgie got to say hi to Santa! This school’s social worker happens to look much like jolly old St. Nick so he dressed up to take photos with students. They were SO excited! And the lead teacher of the class I did programming for used to bring her children to my shows (they’re teenagers now), so it was fun to reconnect! And door decoration contests are such a fun way to add some flair during the season. Gotta love schools and all those loving teachers! It’s where learning begins!!! 💕

Look at those smiles!!! Here’s proof of the music, balloon, and SANTA magic at Benny's Pizza Pub & Patio last night! 🍕 There’s another chance to see Santa and his elf Alabaster Snowflake at Benny’s tonight and listen to Mark Reinhart’s beautiful holiday tunes. 🎶 I won’t be able to make it for more balloons this evening, but I’ll be back on Tuesday, December 17th for my last Tuesday of 2024! 🎈 Then the fun will continue in 2025!

Balloons at Benny's Pizza Pub & Patio tonight from 5:30-8:00! Here’s a little preview of the sights and sounds you’ll experience! It would be “beary” nice to see you there!

The Engineering Technology Event at Columbus State Community College received this balloon hoop this morning! Being married to an engineer, I can appreciate the awesomely unique way engineers show up in the world! #thankanengineer #columbusstate #balloondecor #balloonhoop #engineersrock

Come on out to Sunday Funday in Worthington! Oktoberfest is the theme and fun will be had!

Sedgie the Hedgie adores playing with toilet paper rolls! The backing up is hilarious! Enjoy the cuteness! #sedgiethehedgie #hedgehogsofinstagram #simpletoys

Happy 70th birthday, Marcia! You are a uniquely fun lady!!! The world needs more of you! We had a blast at the Care Train of Union County fundraiser at Benny's Pizza Pub & Patio last night! Mark’s music with RMT always brings the fun! #ageisjustanumber #balloontwisting #balloonwalker

Every morning before shows, #sedgiethehedgie gets his feet cleaned in the sink. He also checks himself out in the mirror. A load of laundry isn’t always churning in the background, but he wanted you to be able to hear his adorable sniffing. #hedgehogsofinstagram #magicalhedgehog #hedgehoginmirror #morningroutine

I relish stepping out of my car at the Delaware Library’s Ostrander Branch. This is the view and symphony you experience. It’s lovely! #delawarecountydistrictlibrary #natureismagical #beautyisoutthere #mindfulness #katyoberlecreative

May the 4th be with you! Use The Force however it benefits the world! #balloontwisting #Maythe4thBeWithYou
