Summer is Over

Woke up today, it was raining and the sky was gray. I thought it would be a good day to get caught up on the blog. I have been a little bit lazy but hey it was summer!

We had a good time back in the U.S.A. We were quite busy but it was lots of fun! I apologize to those of you that we didn't get a chance to see. It is crazy how fast time flies and we just couldn't do it all.

I wanted to post this picture of this sign that is in Raton. I made Jason pull over so I could take a picture. I have never seen anything like this before and it just made us laugh. I love the squirrel! We did see 2 turkeys within an hour of taking this picture. The bears were out in full force with the trash dumpsters. They do make a mess and get the dogs barking.
We did some kayaking which is always fun up at Lake Maloya. Aunt Linda always has some fun up her sleeve!
Up in Angel Fire, we did some fishing. I think the kids caught 9 fish that day but it was a long day! I think we got there around 9 in the morning and left around 5:30 pm. Katelyn wasn't leaving until she caught a fish. There was some big trout in that lake.


We had a nice family reunion with my mom's side of the family. We had a good time and lots of laughs!
We headed to Albuquerque and Zeb and Kelly's wedding was beautiful. They had an outdoor wedding and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. It was really nice once that sun went down. The kids loved the dancing!
We were exhausted from our vacation. It took us about 5 days to adjust back to Switzerland time. Everytime I turned around someone was sleeping in a different location.
Katelyn started school on the 17th of August. She is enjoying it so far. However, the boys don't start back until the 7th of September.
