Not Pregnant, Not Moving

For the last few years we've been enjoying the blogs of our friends and family who have relocated or reproduced. If you are hoping to get some salacious bit of information, you will certainly be disappointed as we have no real news. Initially we assumed that we would have no blog until we had a huge life changing event, but recently we've begun to see a blog as a way to record the fun times we have together and encourage us to take more pictures.

That said, here are some of the life changing events of the last three years that this blog has missed.
We got married, moved to Alaska, got a cat named Eleanor, made some fabulous friends, got another cat named Luke, learned to ski, had an interesting (read: a strong mix of ick and fun) time at APU, caught big fish, swamped four-wheelers, shot guns, were admitted to grad school, moved back, went to school, bought a house, and are now both gainfully employed (almost).

Now that that's out of the way, we'll tell you about the balloon launch.

On Saturday we got up at o'dark:30 and drove to pick up Kerry's mom for the hot air balloon launch. The launch is an annual event that Kerry went to as a child and somehow Joe hadn't made it until this year. Joe had a great time which is probably due to a combination of fire, hot air, and of course being with his lovely wife.

Here are pictures for your enjoyment.
