BOY!!!! We are super excited to announce that we will be having a baby boy coming in January. We cant wait and are hoping that everything will be smooth sailing from here. I am a little nervous to start all over again but cant wait to see the little face of this boy. If you have any cute name ideas I would love to hear them. So far Luke really wants us to name him Vader so clearly we need some help on the names. Wish us luck!

Carlsbad Caverns
We were lucky enough to get a quick trip in this weekend before the kids start school on Wednesday. We got invited to go to Carlsbad with some friends from the ward to go see the caves and the bats!!! We decided to stay at a KOA campground in a cute little cabin Friday night which was also the night that we went to go see the bats. We got up to the caverns around 7:00pm to watch them come out of the cave. It really was so neat. They say that there are a couple hundred thousands of bats that fly out of the cave. I am sad that we couldn't take pictures but that would scare the bats and I wasn't willing to take the chance that they would fly at me and get me for taking a picture:) The next morning we woke up and checked out of the cabin and we were on our way up to explore the caves ourselves. Holy cow is all I have to say. I started to panic at first and my legs were shaking because I was sure that someone was going to fall over the sides. We walked 750ft down to the bottom of the cave and it was amazing. It took about 2hrs or so to walk through and thank goodness we got to take an elevator back up. The kids had so much fun and thought that we were in Batman's cave! They loved sleeping in a cabin but I am thinking that is because we brought stuff to make smores...... yummy! We are so glad that we got a chance to go with friends and see things that were just amazing and beautiful.
