August 31-September 2, 2024: Labor Day weekend

Saturday, August 31st: We went to Las Conchas in the Jemez with the Dunlap family (minus Hudson unfortunately) and Patti Waseta to hike and enjoy nature and the beautiful weather together.

On our drive to the Jemez


Even with all the burnt trees, the Jemez mountains and evergreens were an amazing contrast to Albuquerque's desert landscape

The hike sort of ended at this little pond and stream

Mike, Seb, Beau, and Jess waded in the stream

Love this little cub!

It started raining at the end of our hiking fun

Monday, September 2nd: We had our Albuquerque kids and friend Patti Waseta over for dinner and games on Labor Day. The girls always enjoy the Swim Spa the most, followed by just playing together. Beau is getting into pickleball and has gotten very good at it. He and Hudson also love to play basketball against their dad, Sebastian. 

Sebastian and Mike are our house champions at pickleball. Jess and I enjoy playing the game with our hubbies as our partners; but I also love to play Canasta with our kids.

Check out Sofia's freckles!



Nice tan on our lovely Elise


Hannah was pretty tired on Labor Day

For our Labor Day meal, we had BBQ chicken legs, augratin potatoes, dinner rolls, corn on the cobb, a green salad, fresh melons, and banana bread.

I had my nails done at this very busy nail salon
called Princess Nails and Spa
