Carlsbad Caverns

     

     While driving to Dallas, we decided to stop by the Carlsbad Caverns National Park, you know since they were on the way.  If you get a chance to, do it! They are so amazing!  I couldn't believe how enormous they are and so beautiful.  I just wish I had my good camera instead of just my iPhone.    Oh well.  Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Hehe, I had to get one of the hubby.

Summer Bucket List: Mighty Museum

     Today, we took the kiddos to the Nature & Science Museum, educational and fun! Another activity to mark off the Summer Bucket List.

This was outside, I thought it was pretty.

Let the learning begin...

One of Liam's favorite exhibits!

Kinley loved it too, she kept saying her version of "ball" 

and kept reaching out wanting to touch it.

So cute!

He loves anything and everything space!

This was really cool.  

It shows the speed of the different planets orbiting the sun.

What a beautiful Amethyst Geode.

Lots of lizards live in the desert!

Look at all those turtles...

Kinley LOVED watching the turtles the best!

Dinosaur fossilized tracks

WOW! Look at that Dimetrodon!

Lots of Rattlesnakes here too!

Had to take a picture of the desert fox!

Liam liked looking all the exhibits, 

especially when daddy picked him up to see them closer.

This T-Rex skull was HUGE!!

AHHHHH! WATCH OUT LIAM! Hehe

We also walked around the Museum of Art,

but I couldn't take any pictures in there.

Overall, it was a great family day out.

Aguirre Campsite

  The other day, the hubby, little man, and I checked out the Aguirre Campsite.  I'm not much of a camper, but it was beautiful.  The hubby can't wait to bring Liam out there again and rough it.  Here's some of the pictures I took of the New Mexico scenery.

     Liam is just like his daddy and LOVES anything nature.  As for me, I love nature too, but being almost to my due date plus the hot weather plus all the hiking....let's just say I was more then happy to go when they were.
