Summer Vacation

As soon as Bruce's 8th grade promotion ended we hit the road! 
Our first stop was Tuscon, AZ where we were able to attend the Tuscon, AZ Temple open house. 
This is the 3rd temple open house that we've been able to attend.
The kids enjoyed a warm night of swimming with bats flying overhead.
The next day we entered New Mexico! I hadn't been back to NM since Bruce was a baby. 
Our first stop was Carlsbad Caverns. We hiked in at it was so awesome. 


We headed to Albuquerque after that for the next few days.
The first day we drove around and took pictures of all of the houses I lived in growing up. 
(minus the house in Santa Fe and Corralles)
Day 2 was spent in Old Town Albuquerque and then a ride up a tram with a nature hike on top.

Day 3 we swam at the hotel, saw the Albuquerque Temple and had a visit with my cousin, Natalie.
We went to the zoo on our last day.
And I can't forget to mention all of the great food we had.
It was so nice to get away and for the kids to finally be able to see where their mom grew up. 
We were all ready to come home at the end.
