We have spent the past several days in NM visiting David's parents and helping paint the inside of their house. Aside from painting we have been enjoying some yummy Mexican food and we couldn't resist a trip up to the top of the Sandia Mountains.
We picked up some KFC and headed to the mountains for a picnic and Landon's first hike.
After eating his chicken, Landon ate some chocolate pudding and became so silly!!
Here we are before our hike.
The trail we followed had a little stream along it, and Landon just had to touch the COLD water!
Landon is so afraid of Dandelions!! Several weeks ago a part of a Dandelion flew in his face and scared him, so ever since he is SO afraid of them! Ha! Well, I found a Dandelion on our hike and I literally had to force Landon to stand near me. He wanted nothing to do with the flower and he kept saying, "Mommy, put it down!!!!!"

After our picnic and hike we went to the top of the mountain to enjoy the view. Here is Landon standing with Grandma and Grandpa at the top.
Landon and Grandma taking a break! Landon was one tuckered out little guy.
Landon hanging out on our balcony as soon as we got in our room! Landon loved looking over the balcony, and it made David so nervous as he has a fear of heights.
He didn't like the sea weed touching his legs either, so he would spread his legs far apart so that the sea weed could go between.
Building sandcastles.
David made the mistake of feeding the birds!! They would not leave us alone! Finally, Landon got up and chased them away!
One evening we drove around on the beach and saw this camper. It was so cute...fake palm trees, colorful chairs, and just so quaint.
You can't go to Port A without taking a picture in the sharks mouth!!
Landon tried on women's flip flops for the longest time in one of the shops! I think these red ones were his fav! Ha!
We hung out at the pool for a bit. Landon has been doing such a great job swimming lately. He doesn't want any help from us, and he gets around to wherever he wants to go.
We got up one morning and went down to the beach for some family pics! A very nice man took the pictures of all three of us.
We had such a great time and can't wait to get back to the beach!
Our neighborhood had a bike parade through our subdivision. Families decorated bikes, strollers, wagons, and razors to form a parade. David took Landon, and as soon as the parade started it began raining! The parade went on, but everyone was SOAKED!! Fortunately, Landon's ride had a cover on it, so he stayed dry!
After the parade we had a 
We celebrated one of my cousins birthdays with a pinata. Landon took a few swings at it.
Aunt Britt and Landon
Aunt Char was a sport and let Landon put cupcake icing on her face. When he finished she demanded a kiss in which he obliged.
Grandpa gave Landon his first Root Beer!! Mom told me that grandparents are 
Sparkler fun!
