What a great year! We had so much fun this last year, I only hope 2011 can be just as good if not better!!
January 2010
In January we were in Vancouver, WA. I think it was one of my most favorite places we've been so far. Pa and Grandma came it visit. While they were here we saw Cannon Beach, OR. The Tillimook Cheese Factory, the Portland Zoo and Multnomah falls. As a family of 3 we also went to Mt. St. Helens and Silver Falls St. Park.
February 2010
In February someone turned 4!! We enjoyed our last couple of weeks in Vancouver and packed up and headed back to Ut. Once we got to Ut we had a fun bowling party for Keegans birthday and settled into life at "home"
March 2010
In March Keegan started swimming lessons. Despite the face he LOVED them, he was just mad I wouldn't let him get in the pool yet. He spent his days playing with his new best friend Evan and playing with Pa as much as possible.
April 2010
In April Josh and I went to Mexico with our friend Tyler. What an amazing trip!!! We had so much fun! While in Mexico Keegan got to spend quality time with Grandma Sue and The Viehwegs
In May once it warmed up outside Keegan spent as much time as possible outside. He loves to ride the razor. Keegan loved the time in Ut since he was able to play with his favorite people. He loves his Grandma Sue, The Viehwegs and anytime possible Mom and Keegan snuck over to the Willis' house I just love being 2 houses away from both of our BFF's
In June we snuck away to Spruces and had a campout. Our friends The Floyds joined us for dinner and smores. We were lucky enough to see some wildlife. Also in June we spent A LOT of time over at the Viehwegs. They were remodeling the kitchen and we got to help paint, tile and install wood floors.
In July we FINALLY got our next assignment. We ended up in Roswell, NM. We saw A LOT of aliens. The little town was.....little. It was just a short 1 month assignment. We were lucky enough to be placed in a cute little house with a backyard so there was plenty of time to play and run through the sprinklers. We also made a trip to Carlsbad Caverns to see the amazing cave system. One of the other fun places to visit was Bottomless Lakes SP. It was a cute little lake with a fun swimming area and beach.
August 2010
In August we left Roswell behind, spent almost 20 hours in the car and headed up to one of our favorite places ever! We joined the family in Island Park, ID. We spent a great week with Grandma and Grandpa "Cow Ball" as well as the rest of the Viehweg's. After our week in fishing heaven we packed the car up and headed right back to NM to start a new assignment in Albuquerque. We got to ABQ so Josh could go back to work at The Heart Hospital. It's where he worked when we were here last year and of course, they loved him!
We spent September filling our freezer with yummy green chiles and reminding ourselves why we loved Albuquerque. We visited the new Hard Rock Hotel, the Albuquerque Aquarium, the Rio Grande Zoo and of course all of our favorite places to eat. We also headed back up the tram to visit the top of Sandia Peak.
In October we had a GREAT time at the Balloon Fiesta. Our favorite visitors came to experience the fiesta for themselves. It was a week of early mornings but it was all worth it. We had a lot of fun while they were here! After Pa and Grandma left we had another visitor, Tyler came for the weekend just to relax and hang out. October also ment Halloween, this year Keegan had wanted to be Batman. Everytime you asked him what costume he wanted it was always the same response.....Batman. When it finally came down to picking out his costume he chose a Ninja costume. Keegan and I had a great time trick-or-treating, he made a killing. As usual we carved multiple amazing pumpkins, it's our thing, what can I say.
November was a lot of fun. We went to the Natural History Museum and finally got the picture I had been kicking myself for not getting last year. We spent some fun days at the Aquarium, Zoo and Botanical Gardens. Josh had a few days off so we packed up the car and headed over to Phoenix to see Tyler. He is always a lot of fun! We spent time hanging out, eating cupcakes from Sprinkles.....so yummy! We also went to the Phoenix Zoo! It was really nice, the enclosures are so big and nice. The animals there are really lucky. We had a great Thanksgiving with just the 3 of us. I made all of our favorite dishes with a great turkey to make the best turkey sandwiches ever!
Wow! December flew by, we put up our cute little tree and added all our ornaments that we've collected from our travels. We spent a week up in Utah visiting family and friends. We had a great time looking at lights and getting to see everyone. Keegan was lucky enough to get an early Christmas at both Grandma Sue's and The Viehweg's as everyone wanted to get to see him open his gifts. We had a great time but had to retun to ABQ. On our way home we spent the night in Moab and then the next morning took the tour through the cool house at Hole "N The Rock. Once back in ABQ we got SNOW!! Not something that happens often but we were excited to see it. We had a wonderful Christmas just the 3 of us. Keegan gets more fun every year. He decided to leave treats for Santa and not cookies he also left oats for his reindeer. Keegan has been such a good boy, he is so smart and such a joy!
