The Annual Halloween Party 10-27-08
This is Tim quietly threatening Anderson about behaving during the photos. It worked!!
Who could ask for more? Hmmm, a baby girl in Feb. named some version of Minnie?
OK, I give. Hair is, well, hairy. Ryan Dalley is a great kid and hopefully his vision will clear up when he eventually cuts his hair. No rush.
More photos........
Coombs Family Photos, Oct. 2008
Anderson, finally still, but very cute. He preferred running in the yard.
This is Megan Dalley, Kelli's youngest and this is soooo cute, right? She's usually talking, and talking, and talking.......but we caught her and then she was off to play.
The adults..........smiling because they can smell the bacon and biscuits from the kitchen. It was a good day.

OK, I'm an amateur..........be sure to keep going back to older posts to see all my Peru pictures.
They still farm in this terrace fashion. Such a hard life they live.
We were at a meeting in Urabamba and found Pres. Jimenez and his wife. He was Ben Coombs companion in the Colombia mission years ago. Talk about a small world!
This is on the ride back from the airport from Cuzco. It was a little scary, white knuckles for Steve. You could hear the tire rubbing on the frame of the tiny, tiny car and we moved people around to redistribute the weight but it didn't help. After multiple stops, filling the radiator with water, checking for a hot tire that might blow, we got a taxi to the Earls' apartment. Whew, dodged another bullet. Sometimes I just looked at Steve and said "good bye" thinking we'd bought the farm but................we're still alive. It was really cool.

Steve gave this little dude some gum and 5 solis. He was happy but shy. This is the real deal with this boy's clothing, traditional and cool.
After the death march to Machu Pichu we found a restaurant owned by a member of the church. They had a picture of the Salt Lake Temple in there and the tabernacle songs played on a pan flute--promise. The llama was darn tasty, too. We were tired after the hike of a life time. I don't mind telling you that I had to sit on my butt to come down the stairs on the last stretch, I was that scared. But, it was worth it.
The train to Machu was packed!! It was hard to find a seat but we squeezed in. :)
