Albuquerque Baloon Fiesta

We were able to go to the Balloon Fiesta a couple of weekends ago, and it was awesome! We all had so much fun, and will definitely make a tradition out of it! I was surprised at all of the different shapes of balloons there were.  And we really loved to watch them heat up the balloons, the fire felt nice and warm too.  Even though we had to wake up so early, everyone had such a great time, it was worth it!

We woke up super early!  and got to see them light up in the dark!

Quincey and Randy

They look so excited to be up so early!

Most of The Tea Clan (Affy was sleeping away like a sane person.)

We got to watch them set up the Bee Balloons right from the very beginning. There were 3 of them. 'Joey', 'Lilly', and their baby, 'Joely'.


Do you see 'Spider Pig' in the background, he was one of my favorites.

I LOVED seeing all of the hundreds of balloons in the sky all at once.

Heating it up!

Here is a shot from underneath the Bee Balloon.

Joey and Lilly, up up and away!

It was cool how Joey and Lilly stayed together so well! 

We LOVED this Elvis Balloon. :)

Cool Cactus

Aftyn finally woke up toward the end, and she loved seeing all of the balloons too!  Success!
