New Mexico

This past weekend we got to go to New Mexico and visit some friends. Danny went to college with Blaine and Amanda, we have remained in touch with them since they moved and we moved. They have been great friends and were so generous to use their fling miles on us so we could come visit. It was a nice weekend to get caught up on what has been going on and to get to know their twins, Brandon and Ashlyn. Brooklyn loved playing with them, she would get so excited when they came over to her it was great watching them interact. Amanda is expecting baby #3 in October so having Brooklyn around was sort of a trial of how life will be with 3. Because of the kids and much required naptimes we didn't do a whole lot, which was perfect. We went out to eat, played scrable (Danny and I not so good at that game), stayed up late talking, went to Santa Fe,and drove around town. You know when you go away it is always nice to get back home to your own bed, well B was super happy to sleep in her bed, but I miss their King size guest bed makes our Queen feel so tiny. Thanks again Blaine and Amanda for inviting us to visit we had a great time hopefully we can do it again next year.
B was so excited to sitting by herself and playing with the peanut bags.
She is trying to decide if she can share with dad
We went to Santa Fe for lunch it is about 45 minutes from there house. This is the local train.
Some artwork in one of the museums. My mom and dad would love all the Indian artifacts, it was a big part of the shops.

Blaine just because he took it and tried to delete it! Haha

Brooklyn so proud even though she is stuck
Brandon and Ashlyn, they are so cute and loveable. They would just walk up to us and want to be picked up. I miss them.
B's new friend, when we drove around she loved playing with Ashlyn. They would laugh and get all excited.
