Hair cut!!!

Ok, so mom and I cut Sofia's hair yesterday. She really had never had it cut since she was a baby, so it was long, but very thin. She now has bangs, dad didn't care much for them, but she refused to ever keep anything in hair, so it was always in her eyes and she looked so mechuda. (crazy hair). I think now it will grow in more now, and she looks better without all the hair in her face. It will look better too once it grows more in the back. so, there she is! with the first real hair cut! She has hair clips on the side of her hair now, (in the pics). that's why it looks pulled back.

The newest American citizen!!

Mom had her citizenship ceremony this past friday. She's ready to vote for Obama. haha. No just kidding, really! ;-) It was very exciting to see her get her certificate, she knows more English than she'll let anyone know. Several other people from the Spanish church were also becoming citizens. So, after the ceremony we just came home, had a nice lunch together, had coffee and bread. and that's it. ;-) one more vote will count in this year's elections!

Elephant Butte Lake

We took this trip in the middle of July, this is about 2 hours south of ABQ. We have access to a house there through Aaron's relatives; who own the house. Sofia does really good in the boat, she loves to wear her lifejacket; she "swims" in the lake; and just loves to play in the beach because she can go in and out of the water. By the way notice how Sofia gets VIP treatment, all she needs is the cupholder and a fan. ;-)

4th of July

For the 4th we just went over to a friends house, they had a cookout and they got some fireworks and Sofia enjoyed looking at the lights and color of the fireworks. I think next year she'll enjoy them a little more. Thanks to Granny Lou for the cute t-shirt. ;-)

Camping

This is a little old, but i'm updating. This was at the end of June we went camping, i can't think of the name of this place right now. But it was very pretty, calm, not crowded at all. We had a good time. Sofia always enjoys being outside.
