Shane & Michelle

For the 24th, we went to a resort in Ruidoso, NM. There was swimming, golf, fishing, boating, shopping and good eating. We had a lot of fun! We came home and immediately got busy. I packed up the whole apartment and Shane finished is work and said his goodbyes to his Agents in Albuquerque. I have to brag a little about how my hunny is doing in his new job. He is doing excellent! With his guidance and training, one of his new hirees made nearly $13,000 her first month. She is on her way to being a successful Agent. Good job babe!

We are now in Las Cruces. It is such a beautiful city. Aleah is walking all over the place. She is keeping me very busy. It is fun to watch her walk--she sort of waddles because her legs are so chubby! Braden and Kyle have learned their ABC's and can count to 20. They also learned the "Book of Mormon Stories" primary song. I have recorded them singing it and will download it soon. It's so cute! Also, Braden has learned how to fold pants and shirts so now he does all my folding for me! (Aren't I horrible?) At least he is learning how to work. LOL Anyway, I started working out again and I am loving it. It feels so good to run, ride bikes and lift weights. I'm finally getting some muscles! Shane is working so hard but enjoying his new job. Well, that's the low-down on us. I thought I'd download some of my favorite pictures I've taken in the last couple weeks.

Braden and Aleah


Three reasons to smile :)



Kyle wakes up in the mornings and puts his tie, pants, and belt on. He made this tie out of his own creation. It's aleah's headband and his clip on tie!!! He then gets a bowl out of the cupboard, pulls himself up on the sink, and fills the bowl with water. Then he gets a straw for a shaver and pretends to shave his beard. I wonder who he got this from?


Braden and Aleah in Ruidoso The 3 of them

Peter and Laurie Webb are members of our ward. They invited us over for barbeque to say goodbye. We will miss them. They are a neat family! What is really cool is that Peter was one of Randy's old mission companions. We got to hear a couple funny stories!
