We have been away from the blog for a long time - sorry about that. It has been busy around here!
Instead of writing a lot, we are just going to bombard you with a bunch of photos from the last month or so.
Paloma loves to make art
She made a special birthday present for Auntie Kristin.
 |
| Learning to "sew." |
 |
| Deep in concentration |
Every day, she loves to come home from school, put on her art smock, and paint.
 |
| Busy in her studio. |

Grandma and Grandpa came to visit
 |
| About to adventure off into the Valley of Fires. |
 |
| Vast volcanic plains... |
 |
| Little adventurer at White Sands. |
 |
| At the end of the hike, we camped amongst the dunes. |
 |
| Dune climbing with an extra load. |
 |
| Paloma catching up to Grandma and Grandpa. |
 |
| Enjoying the cool evening air. |
 |
| The happy campers. |
 |
| Not enjoying the cool morning air. |
 |
Mum/Grandma trekking back to the car - hiking
is much easier when it's not 100 degrees! |
Plus, we spent some time hanging out in Albuquerque.
 |
| Getting to know one another. |
 |
| Enjoying a glass of wine at the concert in the BioPark. |
And Grandmommy and Grandaddy came down from Taos to visit.
 |
| Getting to know one another. |
Imogen has been growing up
She loves to talk!
And she loves to smile.
 |
| The cutest smile ever! |
Plus, it has been hot hot hot.
 |
| Little girl sleeping on another hot day. |
 |
| And the big kids like to take an afternoon nap to beat the heat too. |
Oh, and I got a new job...
 |
| How I feel when I think about two kids + new job + Howard going on the river for a week.... |
Luckily, we have Paloma to keep things in line.
