Mac and Ike had a great time on Halloween. Their favorite part about Halloween is not dressing up, getting candy, or seeing spooky things, they like to answer the door and hand out candy to all the spooks that come to our door! BOO

Trick or Treat on Mid-Town was great fun!

This is how we tailgate! Mac and Ike more pizza please!

In Albuquerque with Mom and Dad

I am walking Mom through some blogging details.....she is excitted to be a new blogger as am I. Go Mom and Dad!

We had a wonderful time with family in Laguna Beach this past April. We can hardly wait for our next big adventure!

We love living in such a beautiful area. The weather is cooling down and we are preparing for the snow. We put these photos on our blog mainly to entice family to come and visit. Yes, the photos look nice too.....but we can truly say that our motives are not 100% pure.

South Padre Trip

We had a great family trip to San Antonio Texas and then on to South Padre Island. We had a great time seeing some friends, swimming and playing on the beach, and going to the Schlitterbaun water park. I got to see some people I knew from my mission inclunding Lucino Lobato, a man we had baptised over 12 years ago. He is serving faithfully as Elders Q Pres. It was a great time had by all....and we hope to go back soon.
