ice cream makes everything better...


unfortunately, our time in window rock was winding down. we were only here for a week since my parents were on their way to colorado this weekend. 

we had to cram in as much fun as we could in the short amount of time we had.

the weather was nice and warm, perfect for walking to the pool and taking a dip.


makayah pointed out this lovely cactus and begged us to take a picture of it.


we are so grateful to have this place to swim any time we want.


mimzy is still learning to swim, but felt more secure and free to float around the pool with all her "safety precautions."


mosiah's first time swimming with daddy.


he seemed to enjoy himself...


he wasn't too crazy about being on his back in the water, though. his whole body would go stiff and he'd try to crunch back up.


makayah loves any excuse to use water toys, especially her "scuba" mask.


isaiah, jumping and being the daredevil of the group.


it was really fun swimming as a family. we played marco polo, and swim shark (tag), and just enjoyed the cool water. 


floaties are fun, thanks to the dollar section in walmart. 


after swimming, we dressed up and headed for town. we couldn't pass up on going to our favorite southwest restaurant.




living in wisconsin, we don't get quality southwestern food like this...obviously. ;)


samiyah was freaking out about getting ice cream. she had the hugest smile on her face, jumping up and down, clapping her hands, "YAY! YAY! YAY!"


ice cream in her tummy. happy mimz.


i had to take two pictures of her, she was just too cute.

my handsome little man. i'm loving his long hair.


makayah, the entertainer, showing off her tea pot dance. my gorgeous girl.


my handsome man.


sam just had to take this photo of the ridiculous sign.


gallup city streets.


rain threatening skies.


the kids have so much fun shooing the cows away from our yard.


mimzy did a fabulous job of scaring them away. ;)


it was a beautiful evening in st. michaal's today. today was perfect.




today i am grateful for:

*my kids. i can't be thankful enough for them.
*my husband and how he loves spending time with us.
*beautiful arizona sunsets.
