Andilyn is walking!!!

Updated pictures

Here are a couple updated pictures of us. You can see Andilyn's teeth now, that is a new change. Sorry we are always trying to catch up on blogging. I need to be better at posting, but anyway...here goes~

Favorite place to explore

Andilyn has a new place she loves to explore. Every time the fridge opens, it is a mad dash to get there as fast as she can. No matter where she is, she speed crawls to the fridge and either sits on it or stands in it to explore what good things are in there.

Halloween

 

Now that it is almost Christmas, here are a few of our Halloween pictures this year. We had a lot of fun at the Trunk or Treat. Ryan was Captain Hook, I was Peter Pan and Andilyn was Tinkerbell. She loved her costume, she would hug it and hold it up to her face. We had a Happy Halloween.

6 Month Pictures

Well now that Andilyn is almost a year old, it is probably time for me to post her 6 month pictures. So here it goes. We had a really hard time getting her to smile. She was in a mood, but we got some funny pictures. Some somber, some silly.

Santa Fe

We had a really nice time visiting Santa Fe a few weeks ago. I had no idea how much history there is there. We actually stayed in a bed and breakfast that belonged to Witter Bynner, a famous poet. His home was a gathering place for many such as D.H. Lawrence (who spent his first night in an American home in this house), Willa Cather, Ansel Adams, Igor Stravinsky, and Robert Frost. It was really neat to see the house and all of the pictures of it from way back. We had fun visiting the oldest home and the oldest church in the USA! Here are a few pictures of Andilyn all bundled up in Santa Fe and a picture of the St. Francis cathedral in the Plaza.

The FamDamily!

Here are a couple pictures of us!

Balloon Fiesta!

We finally got to see the famous Balloon Fiesta after living in Albuquerque for a year. It was AMAZING! It was so neat to see all of the different hot air balloons. It really is something everyone needs to see at least once. It was really nice because our ward had a big breakfast the morning of the mass ascension, while we watched the balloons take off. Every day 500 hot air balloons take off. The Land of Enchantment doesn't disappoint!

Andilyn in her shades!

The Albuquerque Fair

We decided to head to the Albuquerque fair in hopes that it would be as great as the Blackfoot fair. It wasn't, but we still had a lot of fun. Here Andilyn is feeling really big riding this tractor and getting her first mugshot taken.
