Dan and Angie Visit

We are so glad that my brother and sister-in-law were able to visit for a weekend! We took them to all our favorite local hot-spots including up the Sandia Peak Tramway, walking along the Rio Grande, visiting our local winery, and to our favorite little restaurants Taco Cabana's and Dion's Pizza. The girls were all smiles having their Uncle Dan and Aunt Angie here! It was truly a fastastic visit!

Happy Halloween

It is so nice to be headed into the fall season! It is my favorite time of year! We had a wonderful Halloween. The girls both wanted to be princesses which was no shock since they both always love dressing up and getting girly (to my surprise, I always expected any daughters of mine would be full-on tom-boys!) We also took the girls to the Zoo Boo, which is always a lot of fun. We went early to avoid the crowds and then had a picnic lunch before heading home. The girls enjoyed picking pumpkins at McCalls pumpkin patch with Zoe's friends from school. And a very special Halloween treat this year was seeing Zoe in costume in her ballet class! It was adorable to see all the girls dressed up together!
