Grandma Dick came to help out when Austin was born. We also got a visit from Aunt Lindsay and her friend, Elsbeth (who Megan took a liking to right away - she's the real socialite of the family). We went to the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta while they were here. Actually we found a parking lot outside of the park and watched the balloons take off from there. It was pretty windy so there weren't as many balloons taking off as usual, but we didn't have to leave at the crack of dawn to get there, we didn't have to deal with parking, and we got to be right by our car so we could jump back in when it started to get chilly. Plus Grandma got us some cinammon rolls that we gobbled up as we waited. Afterwards we headed over to the Botanic Gardens. They were having a special Fall Festival in the farm section. I helped Megan make a doll out of corn husks, we got to watch them make apple cider (and then taste it...and buy some to take home), the kids got to pet some animals, and Grandma took a ride on a tractor with them. We ate chinese food on the way home and called it a day - Fun times.
