The month of October has been and will be quite busy for us. Our home will be a revolving door with visitors! Our first visitor Jayne, came for Balloon Fiesta and luckily both times we went the weather was perfect! We had a great time visiting and as always time flew by. Here are some photos of her visit. Our next visitor comes in on Thursday . . .
I promised Jayne beautiful sunsets in our backyard and the sun gods did not disappoint!

| A very early toast for the balloons! |
Each morning during Balloon Fiesta there is what is called the mass ascension. Over 500 balloons fill the sky for what can only be described as amazing! This year we decided to try something a little different. We went to one of our favorite wineries for the mass ascension. They offered breakfast, mimosas and a beautiful view of the balloons. Two balloons actually landed right in front of us and were given a mimosa as well.
