bring on the sand!

The apartment complex we're living in here in Las Cruces has a sand volleyball court. Since we didn't get into the complex with the park next door (here we have to drive to one), we go to the sand court with their sand toys and play. They love it, and I love not having to get in the car!

Museum fun

Ok, so this isn't my favorite layout, but I thought I'd share anyway. This is the... Las Cruces Natural History Museum! Ha, I bet you thought I was going to say the Santa Fe Children's Museum. The Natural History Museum has an exhibit, Air Play about air movement. It's really great and is a travelling exhibit. If it comes to an area near you, you should check it out.

Last one

This is the last one, I promise! The last one of the Children's Museum that is. My goal (and so far I've actually made it) is to post every day in November.

They had this great table that had huge magnets and all sorts of nuts and washers and you could make all sorts of things.

you 2

Even though these pictures were taken at the Albuquerque Plaza, they're not going in the New Mexico album. I just loved these pictures so much that I had to make a page to go in my "Mom's favorites" album.
This is my take on the Inspired Blueprints sketch #32
Oh, did you guess Pittsburgh as the most misspelled city? People forget about the "h" at the end.

Old Town Albuquerque

We had some time to kill between the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta and lunch at the restaurant that Martel's aunt owns, so we went to the plaza in old Albuquerque. It was so nice just walking around checking out all the hustle and bustle. Martel found a CRX parked on the street so I clandestinely took a picture of it with him and Leo next to it. The Navajo Code Talkers were there signing books, but I couldn't get a good photo.

Here's your trivia for today, what's the most commonly misspelled city in the US??? I'll give you a hint, it's not Albuquerque. The answer tomorrow!

This is another A Page 4 All Seasons layout that I changed up a bit.

Leisure Suit Aaron

I absolutely LOVE this picture of Aaron. This is how his jammies were when he woke up in the morning. Waaaaaay back is the 80s, my dad used to play this computer game, Leisure Suit Larry. I don't remember a lot except that Larry was a lounge lizzard and the game was entirely inappropriate for kids to know about.

Boys and their toys

Yet another of the Children's Museum layouts. It's more of a mishmash of photos that I really liked and wanted to scrap.
