NYC Wedding

Fun-packed weekend in Brooklyn and NYC for Sam and Emma's marriage celebration. It was so nice to meet and get to know Emma's family from Australia — so delightful. In between activities, we visited Prospect Park, a huge, gorgeous park in Brooklyn.

Halloween

Halloween is celebrated 1000% in our neighborhood. Julia, Brenda, Katie, and Abbey (dressed up as a bee) were all there to participate. Fun, fun! Julia then went up to NYC to support her childhood bestie, Jessie, who ran the NYC Marathon. Congrats, Jessie!

Park City 2026

From Albuquerque, we flew (with Julia) to visit Laura and Clarkson in Park City, UT. The weather and views were amazing. Laura made delicious meals, and we had dinner at the Silver Star Cafe (featured 2x on Guy Fieri's television show)--so good! We hiked at Deer Valley Resort and the Bonanza Flat Conservation Area (including the Blood Lake Trail), and saw plenty of wildlife (moose, deer, blue jays) as well as old mining equipment. So much fun--the perfect combination of relaxation and activities!
