Raton Trip

The family went up to Raton this weekend for a family members wedding. The kids had a good time exporing the town. There are many parks in Raton, there is also a hill (Goat hill) that has a beautiful view of the whole town. The wedding was Friday and Saturday before we left we went to see an extinct volcano we got to walk around the top of it and then walk down into the center. William go to fill out some papers that Grandma printed out for him. He had to explore his surroundings and write them down, at the end he became a Junior Ranger and got a badge and everything to make it official. We all had great fun.

Guinea pig bath

We gave two of our kids a bath today and Aurora loved the bath Bounce however thought that we were torturing her. It was a much needed bath we had to change the water after Aurora got in because it turned brown. I must say though that when a guinea pig shakes after a bath they are about as bad as a dog after a bath.

Here is Aurora in the tub and loving it she likes to be clean.

Here she is getting rinsed off under the water.

This is bounce and she fought the whole time that she was in the bath.

See she survived the evil bath time with no melting too.
