The Great Outdoors

We spent most of our days either outdoors or with the house all opened up enjoying the fresh air. The weather in Santa fe is amazing, if you're warm all you have to do is step in to the shade and if you're chilly you just step in to the sunshine! I absolutely love the climate there and it made me sad to even think about coming back to our humid, heatwave! 
The kiddos loved running back and forth between the front and back yard and being able to go through the house without hearing, 'hurry, shut the door!' and I loved it to! It's also monsoon season right now so occasional light afternoon showers are typical. One afternoon grandma got out rain gear for the kids to play outside with. She is always thinking of them and makes everything so much fun!
The afternoon before we left we spent time out on the front lawn enjoying the fountain and conversation together. The kids found a stash of silly hats and brought them out to model for everyone. As you can see, grandpa was king of the lawn, ha!
We followed our visiting with the traditional send off dinner at Dion's for pizza. We went back to the house for a short bit after eating and said our emotional fair wells. It was a wonderful visit and we packed so much into a short amount of time. We will be missing everyone greatly and already look forward to our next visit!
