up, up and away

Thirteen years ago Brian and I were having so much fun together after a Friday night softball game that we decided to stay up all night and go to the Reno Balloon Races at dawn. What an amazing first date!


Naturally, this spectacular fall event holds special meaning for us; a symbol marking another year of commitment, love and happiness together. And although we aren't the spry kids that can burn the midnight oil any longer, waking up a little early for this special occasion every year is a treat.




One of the best parts about attending the Balloon Races now is getting to see the wonder in our girls' eyes. The sights, sounds and smells of more than a hundred hot air balloons at your fingertips is certainly awe inspiring! If you've never been to such an event you should put it on your bucket list.
