Santa Rosa Lake

This week we went to Santa Rosa to check out the lake and to go camping. Well, we're not having much luck with the camping. This time we didn't go to sleep instead we packed up around 9pm. A storm rolled in early ;-). Well, as always Sofia just loves the water, even if it's cold! the lake was a little chilly, but she didn't mind that too much. We had a fun time on the lake with the tube and wake boarding. Our friend Eddie and Aaron later on went fishing and did pretty well. Even though we didnt get to camp it was nice day at the lake. ;-) We got Sofia a much, much better life jacket, she can be in the water with no worries.

This past week

We had a great mother's day, we went to church, then Sofia and I went to mom's church. They had a nice service dedicated to mothers, and of course good food afterwards. Aaron had to work for part of the day, but he was home by the afternoon. We just hung out, had coffee with my parents. It was nice. Our back yard looks so nice! green grass! amazing what it can do to a little piece of yard; it's a world of difference. we love laying out, Sofia plays; she's just happy to be outside.

White Sands, NM

Last weekend we went to White Sands, it was a 3 1/2 hour trip, Sofia did wonderful! It was pretty amazing to see, it seemed like snow, only it was warm! the sand was cool as you walked in it. Also it was very fine sand. For all but Aaron it was our first time there. I can't believe I've lived here this long and hadn't gone to visit this earlier, but, oh well. At first Sofia wasnt sure about how the sand felt in her hands; but after a while she got used to it. There is also a lake in the place, but we didn't make it to the lake. Anyways, as far as the camping; well, lets just say that very strong winds and tents just don't mix and we had to pick up and leave around 1am after Sofia had finally woken up and Aaron drove the night. Needless to say we were tired Sunday. But, the trip was still fun.
