Lots of Visitors!

So much has happened in the last two weeks!  Mostly we have enjoyed having lots of visitors: first Mom and Dad spent a week here, then my good friend Genavee came during her Spring Break!

With Mom and Dad, we played lots of games, went on some nice walks, and set up Baby's nursery.  They also helped with our school's book fair during Parent-Teacher conferences.  Between their cooking, cleaning, and home improvement projects, we were spoiled all week long!  :)

Beautiful (if windy) day for a hike!

The happy hikers

Mom helped me roast and peel green chiles for the first time--a big NM milestone!

We did lots of pre-baby home improvement projects...

...including some work on the nursery.

The day that Genavee few in, we went to the Albuquerque Zoo--and it was so much fun!  We also took an adventurous hike to Church Rock and played lots more games!  It was a great week...unfortunately Genavee had to fly back to Seattle this morning.

Beautiful day at the ABQ Zoo

We had a delicious dinner at the Flying Star Cafe!

We couldn't find the official trail to Church Rock...so we took a more adventurous route.

Great views!



This evening was the middle school's big World War II Museum Night.  The students' amazing projects were displayed and my mid-school play group put on the play "The Hiding Place" based on the book by Corrie ten Boom.

The kids did a really good job!  Now we're ready to enjoy a quiet and restful Spring Break...  :)
