Heritage Farm Fall Festival

This fall festival is at our Aquarium and Boutanical Gardens. The fall festival actually takes place at Heritage Farms which is located in the back of the Boutanical Gardens...they have animals, make applie cider and do other neat things for the kids. This is by far our favorite fall festival.

Coralles Fall Festival

Our favorite time of year has hit here in Albuquerque. It's one fall festival after another then followed by balloon fiesta! We have had a wonderful fall so far. It is a fun time to teach the boys about God's creations - watching the leaves change, the weather switch, and mommy's belly growing to the size of a watermelon :)

Football Game - Aggies for a day!

We had a great time at the UNM/Texas A&M football game. We were given the tickets (nice box seats) by one of the urology attendings here. As you can see, the dudes are all duded up in Aggie gear (thanks to the Carters, new friends who just moved to town from Houston). I gotta admit, they don't look too bad in maroon, but this is probably the last time you'll see 'em in aggie gear... unless they decide to attend A&M, Lord help me. just kidding, jill and todd (and all our other great aggie friends).

Naomi's Birthday Party

Will and James had a blast at Naomi's 2nd birthday party. The park where we were is actually right beside Uncle Nathan and Aunt Steph's old apartments, when they used to live here.

Will's 4th Birthday Party

Will had his 4th Birthday party the following Saturday of his actual birthday. He had a swim/cookout party. The kids had a lot of fun! I think the adults had fun too - take a look at Stephen and Mike playing baseball with the pinata.

Will's birthday cont...

After dinner we celebrated his birthday by letting he and James frost cupcakes and of course, eat them. Then he opened up a couple of gifts....

Wednesday, August 6th. Will Turns 4.

Will started out the day early by waking up at 5:15am on his birthday. We did not need to be at the airport until 8:30am to pick up Grandmother so we decided to start the day at Dunkin Donuts. Then we headed to the airport to pick up Grandmother. Will wanted to head down town at this point to see the "rail runner" train - he loves looking at the steamies. And then we met our friends, Melissa, Kaylee (3 and 1/2), and Naomi (1 and 1/2) for a fun morning at the Aquarium. Will had a really nice day!
