Last Shot of Twenties

This past week was my twenty-ninth birthday. The celebration start early on Saturday with family, continued on Monday at work, and finished one week later with the Mythbusters Behind the Scenes Tour at UA. Thank you to Tia for organizing a party, even at the last “minute”. I love you. Thank you everyone for the great gifts: I got a messenger style bag, head light, Ironman movie, ice cream cake from Cold Stone, and birthday cards. Also thank you Connie for the pumpkin cheese cake. I have another year of being in my twenties so I will enjoy it.

New Mexico Balloon Fiesta

On October 4th, the Begays took a vacation to New Mexico to see the Balloon Fiesta, which is on our "we" list. (The list we created to do together.)


It was colder than usual so we took our vests out of storage and took off on Friday. Leia did very well on the trip. She took time to eat some apples and bagels on the trip up.

We woke up nice and early to see some early dawn balloon take flight. Leia was up nice and early as well. Everyone wanted to know if she was comfy and she was with her George at her side.


Our favorite balloons were the Darth Vader balloon and the Creamland Dairy cow.

Leia enjoyed the people.

Jas enjoyed the Chainsaw carving.


I enjoyed eating at Tucano's.
