So helpful!

Frequently, when I am loading or unloading the dishwasher, Sammy finds something that needs washed and helps me out by loading it for me. 

For instance... a ball

Or...a cookie

Sometimes...A car

Or perhaps...some detergent

And this isn't the dishwasher, but she did help put away her apple when she was finished eating it...

Sammy's going to be a big sister!

And this is the picture she colored to give to Daddy when he got home from work

I folded it up and had Sammy take it to Craig.  His response was "Oh you colored me a picture, Thanks!" But he didn't even look at it. Ten minutes later I went and got it and told her to give it to him again, but this time unfolded.  I think we are both terrified!

It's not so fun to pick up your garbage the second time...

This naughty bear got into our garbage last night.

 Craig made me open the door to get a better picture but it scared him off

I'm just glad there was only one bag of garbage in there!

Just because she's cute

And because she finally smiled for a picture :)

Tsankawi Hike

Though we definitely chose the wrong time of day (it had to have been like a thousand degrees), this hike was awesome!

You could choose between this...

or this ladder to get up.

Inside one of the Indian caves

These were the old stairs that they carved into the rock to help them get up and down

The rock was really soft and years of people walking the same path has ground the trail down

Sammy was being a turd, so Craig would hide and jump out to scare us. She loved it.

Petroglyphs

Grandma came to town!

We were so excited to have Grandma Wendy here last week! 

We did lots of this...

Lots of this...

And lots of this...

Seriously we stuffed our faces every night. This is just one of our many fine treats. If you ever come to Santa Fe, eat here! Best. Burger. Ever.

We're going to miss you Grandma!

Don't judge me...

We have been enjoying the nice weather! I love fall, it's the best time of the year.

Watch this video and don't judge me...

She was fine. She only cried for a second because

there was this ridiculous thing to cheer her up.

Why would you choose a swing like this for a city park? Sammy liked it though. Even though she almost fell out 20 times. That would've just been a huge park fail for me...

This is a cute park though. They have a miniature golf course with lots of cute play things in it like this...

Until next time East Park....
