In desperate need of a new camera.

As you notice from my pictures I could seriously use a new camera. It is the reason I don't post most of the time but these are from the first couple of weeks in AZ when the we swam everyday and could not believe the beauty we wake up to everyday. Now we are back to work and school and have moved into a house with a community pool. We will be the only ones there since everyone else here thinks it is freezing in the 70's. We just keep enjoying every precious sunny day.

Pool Pics from our first couple of weeks here.







These are pictures from our first Halloween which was at our church. It was a trunk or treat festival and I posted a couple pics so you could see how people decorated the trunks of their vehicles and parked in a circle in the church parking lot. The children just went from car to car to get treats!! The decorating was suberb and it was a blast. On the night of Halloween we went trick or treating in our neighborhood here and was amazed at the way people went all out with carnivals in their driveways along with a few haunted houses. The kids had a great time and Layla caught on quick to what was going into her bag and would stand there smiling at people so they would keep putting more in because they thought she was so cute. My little tigress, dracula and speed racer had so much fun!

Happy Halloween!!(A little late)

Enjoying Halloween in the warmth of Arizona is so very different than what it was like in MN. We had to find costumes that would not be to warm instead of worrying about fitting jackets underneath them. I had to laugh at the pumpkin farm when we took a hay ride and the farm was right in the middle of the city. Hayfield, then industrial shopping mall off to the side. LOL. We also carved pumpkins and instead of worrying about them freezing they cooked out in the sun!!
