Family

My parents flew down from Oregon to visit us this past weekend. They are from a small, conservative town and let's just say Albuquerque is a more liberal area. We took them out to lunch on Friday and sat next to a lesbian couple who were proud to show the world that they were lesbian. I guess they were making out the whole time ... Mark and I didn't notice! We are so oblivious, either that or just use to it. My parents were dying!!

I didn't realize how many things were wrong with my home until my dad began to fix everything. Our dishwasher broke over a year ago and my dad was able to fix it in about 20 minutes. Mark wanted to widen the cubby in the garage so he and my dad did that, and then it turns out that our water heater has been leaking water since we moved in. We had no idea where that water was leaking from! We told my dad that we didn't have much hot water and wallah! We do now! We also learned that we need a new shower head in our bathroom.

We went to the dinosaur museum, racing car museum, shotgun shopping, and saw our friends the DeBucks. The DeBucks lived in Vale, Oregon over 30 years ago. My dad baptized her and shortly thereafter they moved to New Mexico. Now that we live down here they get to see them every time they visit.

I have pictures to add but for some reason my computer won't let me add them. I want to post my 22 week prego picture with Kendra and this time around. I'm so much larger!

Our mountains are beautiful in the evenings. We took this picture from our backyard.
