October, amazingly crazy!!

I can't believe how quickly the summer past by, that we are already in our 3rd month of school, and that the holidays are right around the corner!!

This month in particular has been so busy, I don't think I've been home one weekend!! 😆 

First, we took a weekend and spent it with some great friends who me made since we moved. They have a cabin in Chama, NM and it's such a beautiful place.

 This is the view from their deck

 

 Looking over the gorge 

 

 On a hike. Landen noticed in the bottom picture that the rock had a "face" in it. Can you see it??

 

 After getting back Landen helped make rolls from scratch for dinner that night 😊

We had an awesome weekend!!

The next weekend the kids had fall break, we decided we had to take advantage of that, so we headed to Silver City, NM to explore the Gila Cliff Dwellings, the area around there, and to fish Roberts Lake.  Again an amazing time!!

 One of many amazing views of the Gila Wilderness

 These are the Gila Cliff Dwellings. Ancient ancestors of the area built their community inside this mountain cave. 

 

 It was amazing!! We talked about what it might have been like to live like that. We all agreed pretty wild!!

Here we are the day before fishing Roberts Lake.

We didn't catch anything but we had a nice relaxing time.

This past weekend we ended up in Arizona to see my sis and we caught a Seattle Arizona football game. Viv is s big cardinals fan and my mother in law is a Seattle fan, so we had a fun rivalry going!!! 

 She can't believe it!!! Taking it in 😊

 Let the game begin!!

 Even though me and Landen are Bears fans, we just had to cheer for the cardinals!! However after this game he says he's a cardinals fan now 😉

 What an amazing month we've had traveling!!! I really am grateful we are able to do these things. I have to say though, I'm ready for a nice quiet weekend at home 😊
