    What is your favorite New Mexican festival? I've honestly never been to any of them during my 10 years here! I've always wanted to go to the pie festival in Pie Town though. Mmmm pie!

    You should check out the Balloon Festival happening this week! I love that you are incorporating geekiness into your wedding! I'm a Bio major, but my FI is a German major so that definitely wouldn't work out for us!
