We made it to the Dastrup house. We arrived after about a 12.5 hour drive. One hour of that was going through the Painted desert and Petrified forest national park. Painted desert wasn't anything to get excited about as there is much better in Utah. However the petrified forest was worth seeing. I gotta tell you folks, there's a whole lot of NOTHING between Barstow CA and Flagstaff AZ through the Mojave desert. I was surprised at Flagstaff though. It's a beautiful town in the pines. It was almost dark when we went through Gallup NM and totally dark when we arrived in Albuquerque so we didn't get to see much of that part of the trip besides headlights and taillights. We went to a pumpkin patch with the boys this morning, did a corn maze, saw some animals, got to pick 3 pumpkins, and then did a hay ride. Oh, but I miss little Kiera though. I still think of her playing hide and seek down the hallway with Cambrie....*SO* cute! We're outa here on Sunday and will be home late that afternoon.

(I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
