Labor Day in New Mexico!

New Mexico, here we come! What a blessing - to be able to travel and spend time with family. I will be forever grateful. Dad and I had so much fun spending time with all of our family. To be honest, I had had such a void in my heart and having everyone there - well it disappeared. Here are a few candid shots.

Precious Julianna!
Here are Jonathan and Isaac. I love this picture of Jonathan! Angela's children welcomed Isaac with open arms and he just fit right in. It was pure joy watching all of them.
Isaac had absolutely no fear! He loves to move his body any way he can and it is pure joy. He laughs all the time. It is almost like he is making up for lost time.

This is Jason's hammock :) The children absolutely love it. Just seeing these photos again I want to hug everyone all over again. Zach could hide in it and twirl around and around inside. Emma gave me the great privilege of spending time with her teaching her how to knit. Here she is working really hard on a scarf for who else but Zachary!

I have not seen a rainbow in years! I mean years!:) We absolutely shared a great love for the wonders and beauty of the terrain in the west and it was an added blessing to be given a rainbow. All of us were so excited.

Here we are on Sunday, for Julianna's blessing.

The Goguen's and Browns The Brown family




Our three girls. Wow - together - that is a miracle! We had an absolute wicked awesome time with each other:) A daddy, daughter shot.

We had a silliness night with Emma directing! It was pure fun!

Eating out!


We went out to eat as a group. Quite an experience!!! I had forgotten what simple things entertained little ones. Jonathan was absolutely having a blast with a fly on the window!

Last but not least Emma's Lemonade Stand! She made quite a bit of money. Go girl!
