vacay!

New Mexico was so beautiful. I felt like a kid again watching the balloons lift off en masse. What a sight to behold! To sum it all up, I went to the balloon festival; white sands national monument, lots of parks and hiking; and soaking in the hot springs! Here are a few pictures of my trip. I will post more of the balloon festival later on! I will post more of the trip in general later on as well. :)

 
We hiked up to this spot!


Just call me Mary Katherine Gallagher!!



Micah showing his horns (unfortunately!!) 



On the road to the hot springs - it was a 5 mile hike!


There is an artsy feel to this photo - I like it!


Me wanting to take an artsy, pensive shot


Notice the footprints - Micah walking up to the top of the dune

Me trying to get a good shot even though the sun is blinding me and I'm not wearing makeup! 

I'm about to go sledding down this dune. 


Get your guns up in White Sands


Me sledding down the dune

This is not the beach - this is New Mexico!!

My first time sledding - it was a blast!!! 
Micah did pretty well - he was hanging on with one hand. haha!

The hot springs - 1.5 hours away from Albuquerque




The smallest tub - 1 out of 4 tubs! 


Don't make fun of my white legs!


The water was around 108 degrees! 


I'm thinking that I wish the naked people would leave the top tub so I can check it out!!
