White Sands National Park

Another place that came highly recommended was White Sands National Park.  We went in February, and the weather was perfect!




It's not often mom is in the pictures, given that she's usually the one taking the pictures!  


These two make me smile :)



To the dunes we went!!


Down we go!


A little scary at first, but once he went down the first time, it was just the beginning!




The beautiful landscape.


Everly was a trooper.  She was a little tired, and wasn't sure about how bright things were, but she had fun too :)


Fortunately, once the kids got a little tired of hiking back up the dunes to go down again, there was an abundance of sand to play in!


Everly's first experience with sand.  A little unsure at first, but then she got into it :)




One of the only places where throwing sand is completely acceptable!



And this little incident happened... but no worries, no one was hurt :)

Father and son sledding time!


Everything looks fine and dandy...


Until Sean lost a bit of control...


And may or may not have sledded right into our son...


Where'd Asher go????


Like I said, no one got hurt, just a small bit of trust lost and later regained :)

And then they just played and played some more...


Sand angels...



A beautiful place to visit and roll around in the sand...


And jump and play...






At the end of the day, we deemed it a success!! And off to home we went.


Thank you for a fantastic day, White Sands!!
