Santa Fe


As some of you know, I had to go to Santa Fe for a workshop and Travis went with me. We had a great time and stayed on the Plaza in the La Fonda hotel. I think Trav had a better time than I did seeing as how I was in meetings most of the week. He did lots of neat things like hiking and playing golf. I will include a picture that he took of the cliff dwellings.
Noah went to stay with Ma & Pa Barnes at the new house and traveled to Texas to get Ma's floor as he says. I think he kept them pretty entertained with his vocabulary and riding Pa's tractor. He also got to see baby horses and cows.
As part of our bribes when we returned he got a new pair of boots because he had outgrown the old ones and asked for them all of the time. I think he has worn them ever since with the exception of baths (yes, that means he has worn them to bed, too).

Swimming




Noah and I have started waterbabies class at the city pool. He didn't like it at first, but he seems to enjoy it for the most part. He got to show off his newly acquired skills at Isabel's pool party today, too. Please no comments about my farmer's tan. I know it's bad.
We had some pretty crazy weather in Altus this week and a lot of damage was done on the south side of town. I was gone to a seminar but Travis, Noah and Grandpa and Grandma Barnes experienced it while being locked out of the house. Good times. I will post the url for the paper for anyone who is interested in seeing the pics.
