Vasquez Rocks hosted an Open House on Saturday, so we made our attendance part of Violet's birthday weekend fun.
We made it just in time to catch the tail end of the animal presentations; the ranger is holding a red tail hawk.
I love this photo - my girls seem to fight all the time these days, but this unscripted moment show that they do have some affection for each other!
This expert on the local Native people showed the girls how they used juniper berries and a mortar and pestle in their daily lives.
The local astronomy club came out as well.
We also took a nice hike, going down a direction we hadn't explored before. Cora and Violet both had on new hiking boots, and they loved them - so much better grip on the rocks!
Wonder of wonders, a blooming cactus! So pretty.
Later, we went to Melanie's 8th birthday party, where they showed The Greatest Showman. We had a great time with a great movie and great friends.
