Right now I am on an airplane...heading to Ohio to see my mom!! So back to your regularly scheduled posting which is totally random for sure!!
The huge Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta is going on right now and it is always fabulous. If you are ever planning on visiting...the first two weeks in October is the best time. I couldn't get there this year because I am in that plane...remember?? Ha! So Dr. John took the pics for me near the balloon field.
So no excuses now...come on down and visit!! I would love to take you here and would love to meet you for sure!!
Went to Gallup for my youngest granddaughters' birthday (she is 15 now) and we all went out to dinner. Here are some pics of the family getting ready to chow down. Note: None of them wanted their pictures taken. Sigh!!

On the way home, there was a huge thunderstorm all around us as we drove. So I took some pics. The skies were awesome. And there was even a double rainbow!! So cool! Just had to share!
Aren't those skies something else?? The skies out here are endlessly fascinating and always so beautiful!
Before we went home, we stopped by my Daughter-in-laws school where she teaches first grade and visited her classroom. She was so proud of all the work she had done on it. And the pics of her kids were so adorable. Here are the pics from that visit!!

A long time ago I went to a balloon festival with my father. It was so inspiring. Next I have to ride in a balloon. Great photos.
incredible photos.
have a wonderful visit with your mom SueAnn.
you have a beautiful family. I so wanted to be a teacher when I was little...
Do I comment on your balloons, or your beautiful family, or your rainbow (yeah, a rainbow). Or about how lovely that print is?
Consider all said, and have a great time in Ohio.
Love the balloon shots and the bored granddaughter is priceless. Have a great trip, SueAnn!
What a great trip! I've heard such awesome things about the hot air balloon festival.
Hot air balloons! Wow. When my daughter lived in Del Mar in California, we watched so many hot air balloons come over their house. I think it would be awesome to see the huge festival in your area sometime.
Enjoy your visit with your mom.
Those hot air balloon shots are stunners
I want to fly in them some day.
Great family shots. :)
Those hot air balloons are amazing! I would so love to see this and even more. How wonderful that you are getting to go visit your mom! I hope you have safe travels going and returning home and most of all I hope you have a wonderful time with her.
Great family photo's and happy birthday to your granddaughter. You must be so proud of your daughter in law that is a teacher. I am so appreciative of people like her because I know how hard they work and what a difference they can make in children's lives. Very cool.
Very neat picture...what do I need to do to enter the contest?
Bless you on your travels sweet lady. XX
I love those balloon scenes. We get them over our way too during the Bristol Balloon festival.
Great photos as always.

First have a great trip!
Secondly I love baloon festivals. We have one close to here every year & I try to go whenever I can. If I ever make it down your way I will totally let you know.
And I can't even tell you how much I want to win that print. That is so me!
If I don't win I might just have to see if I can buy one.
Hugs & Love,
Mimi
Dr John took great photos of the balloon festival. The first year I moved here there was one, but it was cancelled the following year and I've been longing to see another ever since. So maybe, one year...
Have a safe and enjoyable trip.
p.s. love the sentiment on that print
Amazing photos of the balloons!!!
Happy Birthday, Miss Georgia!
