Camping in the Cimarron Canyon

We left Oregon last Saturday and landed in Albuquerque where is was apparently hot and dry, but it was cold and pouring down rain!!  WHAT??  We just left the cool wet weather and we come to cold rainy weather in NM!!  Well it didn't last long and it warmed up really fast!!  Camping in the canyon was nice....it was actually a lot like Oregon.  It warmed up during the day and cooled off at night.  It was beautiful.  The kids had a blast fishing, riding Papa's motorcycle, walking and talking to all of Nana and Papa's friends!!  
We got to see Aunt Teenie!!!  The kids fell in love with her (of course....who wouldn't!!)

We took this picture after church on Sunday.  This is the church Jody's dad built in Cimarron.  This isn't the greatest picture....Garrett wouldn't even get in it because the sun was too bright and as you can see Haylee thought it was too bright too.....oh well....these are some of the people that were praying for Garrett after his fall last year!!!  

Nana introduced games to Garrett!!!  She downloaded a game for Garrett for the car ride and Garrett fell in love with it (and is quite good at it).

Garrett had to show cousin Patrick how to play!!!


Haylee telling Teenie a story!!

I LOVE this picture!!  Haylee and Teenie talking away with Patrick sound asleep!


Josh and I wanted to go for a motorcycle ride and Haylee wanted to go, so Josh set her up on it!!  She LOVED it!!  She wanted to go with us!!


Josh and I on our ride!!

Not all of NM is this pretty!!


When we got back we wanted Garrett to get on....it was SO scared!!  We made him sit on it and Josh took him for a small ride....when they come back around he says, "I wanted to do it again!!!"  That's all he wanted to do the rest of the time.!!!


of course Haylee had to join the action (she put the helmet on....the only smart one in the group).


What a fun camping trip....now off to HOT, HOT, & DRY Clovis!!
