Catch up








Ok, I have to play catch up for the past month. I have been so busy with work...tis the season (the wedding season!).








This first picture is my attempt at keeping Naomi's hair out of her face...it lasted for all of 3 minutes! I've tried a couple of times since then, but either she hasn't cooperated, or she has pulled it out soon after I've finished.







This is Naomi loving a puppy at the mall. I'm not sure why she wanted to hug him, but she does it everytime that we come to this ride. Luckily she doesn't really understand that the rides are supposed to move (yet) so I don't have to spend $0.75 each time we pass the rides.





These next pictures of just nice shots that Michael has taken from our backyard. New Mexico sunsets are lovely!
We also have some shots of lightening, but I haven't edited them yet.


Cloud formations.

Here's a picture of our famous New Mexico sunsets. This is actually taken from our backyard.




This is Naomi's garden. She planted it with her Yaya while she was up during her summer vacation. Naomi has taken excellent care of it, it has been over a month and all of the plant are still alive (and some of them still have flowers)!





Naomi is pretty attached to her bipi as you can see from the above picture.







Here she is "smelling" a flower. I'm not sure why she thinks that you smell with you mouth, but at least she is actually eating it!




We went camping! We'll if you can call one night camping. We ended up having to go home after the first night because I came down with the flu and was rather pathetic.


Here is our camp cook (a.k.a. Uncle Jake). He did a wonderful job with a camp stove and didn't manage to catch anything on fire! His menus featured Spagehtti with garlic toast; scrambled eggs with bacon, sausage, and tortillias; and chicken tacos with a side of corn.


Michael sort of...forgot Naomi's shoes, so we ended up fixing her up with an extra pair of her cousins (yes those are hair ties!).



Naomi proves that even in the wilderness she is still beautiful and cute! She's actually pretending to be asleep waiting for someone to shout "wake up Naomi" but it makes for a great picture!



Here's the whole crew (well, not me, I'm taking the picture). We have found a stream and Aztec is investigating. I think he's behind Malissia (Aztec's a dog by the way).
