Ruidoso Part II- So it begins....

"The warmth of a friend's presence brings joy to our hearts, sunlight to our souls, and pleasure to all of life".

We made it to our destination, Ruidoso, and SA friends. The camera then began clicking......

A glance out the back door and of the Altos Lake Country Club Golf Course. It was around sunset and the deer were wandering up.


Landry was watching out the window as the deer creeped up, as all of the little girls did at some point, (and the big girls)!


Landry and June playing. These two were born about a week a part!


The first morning on the golf course--where the guys eventually got kicked off of-- Laney loved being outside as "one of the guys" and so did all the little babies and Daddies.
Laney found many pine cones. In fact, a few unwelcomed ones made their way home in my purse.
The cat puzzle. This puzzle started the first night when Suzanne wanted to play games. I don't remember what we played but she got this puzzle out for Laney. Hilarious, because I can't even do these puzzles.  Yet my adamant three year old wanted to do this kitty cat puzzle. Katie Evans and worked on the border and got the thing started. Then everyone else got addicted ( I mean the guys). I do not know how that happened but they finished it!

Here is the final product fast forwarding to the morning we left.


Laney playing golf and Miss Sophia. These two were buddies. I think so at least. The babysitters told me Laney would boss Sophia but they appear to love each other.
The mountains of Ruidoso....
The concrete at the Dream Catcher; a little restaurant we went to eat at lunch at. Anyway, I suppose I found it amusing that the concrete was the shape of the Great State of Texas in the State of New Mexico.
This wasn't the best picture we took, but I loved the sunlight that somehow sneaked through.


Suzanne, Courtney, and Katie at Starbucks. We had to get some good pictures in and document our day. We went to a store that was called Brown Eyed Girl next door that was decked out in hot pink! Next was a children's shop across the street where I found Laney "her surprise". It ended up being a pink headband that claims "I love soccer".


Alright, so Courtney climbed into the car seat. For the life of me, I can't remember what we were doing this for, to be silly? I know there was a reason but since quarter close my brain cells are depleted. Refresher?

My Landry and my gray scarf. She was doing "up" for me. Sweet baby girl.
The Hargesheimer's made it with Leni!

These three little girls were all born with in a few weeks of each other. Leni February 7th, Landry February 11th, and June February 23rd.

Darlings


They all did different things with the deck of cards. But I wouldn't be surprised if the deck isn't quite full after the playing. Sweet Charlotte in the background--she started to sit up on her own in Ruidoso!


More to come on the exciting adventure in the land of entrapment.....
