I'm running out of motivation to keep posting to my blog.
Part of that is I'm not taking pictures as much anymore.
It's harder to post when there are no pictures.
That doesn't mean we're not doing things.
So we did go on a trip to Scott and Jess's in Phoenix.
We squeezed in two quick days.
They had lots of stuff going on and we actually had a hard time
finding 4 or more days free from events on the calendar.
We stopped over in Santa Fe for one night on the way.
We arrived on Thursday late afternoon.
A pretty relaxed evening at home.
Friday morning started off with a bag.
First we jumped in the car and went along to take Evan to school.
Next we came home for a bit and then I went with Scott and Graham to Music class.
It was so cute. Of course, there were Halloween costumes.
It's about 40 minutes. Letters, reading, music, instruments.
I love watching Scott with his kids. He is so good!
After music class, we headed to swimming lessons for Graham. He is a good little swimmer. We were happy to tag along. Next door was a donut shop so we stocked up on donuts and came home and ate donuts. When Evan got home, the plan was a trip to Dairy Queen.
That night was their ward's Halloween Party. It included a chili cook off dinner.
Jess came home with three awards! No pictures.
It was the first game of the World Series, so Scott set up a tv in the back of the mini van in place of Halloween decorations.
The best part of this trip was Graham did not hold back at all. In the past, it seemed like it took a couple days before he would be in our space. This time he was comfortable and cuddly with us from the beginning.
Evan wanted us to push him in the pool. So here he went.
We all played a game of Aggravation. Luckily Evan won the game!
We were also able to attend one of Evan's basketball games. Jess coaches and Scott coaches from the bench. Evan is comfortable with the ball and plays pretty well for his first season.
Here he is with his team and fantastic coaches.
We had such a good time at Scott's. So happy we were able to go for a visit.
On the way home stopping in Sante Fe again, we had to eat at Blake's Lotaburger that we saw on the side of the road last time through Sante Fe.
It was pretty good.
Fred and I just submitted an application to be service missionaries in the Clothing/Laundry department at the Denver Temple. These are our mug shots for the on-line application.
Look at these old people.
