June 2009

Wow!!! I can't believe the summer as flown by and school has begun. I haven't updated our family blog in months.


Here are some photos that summarize what we did this summer....



In June, we took a trip to the beach. We spent one week in Gulf Shores, Alabama. This was my kids first trip. Needless to say, they LOVED every minute of it and can't wait to return.









We just generally had a wonderful time. We ate and played and enjoyed our family!!!!

Summer Vacation in New Mexico 2008

This summer, the kids and I took off to New Mexico to spend some time at my parents house. This was the first time we had visited New Mexico in 3 years. We spent 14 days at my parents home. One day, we spent the day touring some of the popular attractions of the state.

We went to White Sands which is just outside Alamogordo, NM. If you are interested in learning more about White Sands, visit here. This video is of John "surfing" on the sand. It was quite hot at the time we were there. We probably only stayed about 30 minutes, but we had a lot of fun. We will have to return when it is not so HOT. Matthew can't wait to go back to the "snow". Yes it was in the 90's while we were there and he calls it "snow".



Next we visited the New Mexico Museum of Space History. This museum is located in Alamogordo, NM. For more information, look here.

Out last stop was in Ruidoso, NM at the Ruidoso Downs Horse Racing Track. We stayed at watched the 3 last races of the day.

The kids enjoyed watching the horses....
