Some Much Needed R & R

We officially took our very first family vacation; no one to visit, no wedding to attend, no agenda! We headed out to Angel Fire, New Mexico (Todd's family has a house there) for a long weekend. We took a family from our church who has a little boy Emmalyn's age. This was a strategic move on our part in order to prevent going crazy from Emmalyn wanting us to play with her constantly. It worked somewhat! ;-) Blake enjoyed it as much as he could; especially since he was cutting his two bottom teeth while we were there. We had a wonderful time and will most definitely be returning in the years to come.

The trees were turning colors.

This was Emmalyn's little friend, Graeme. They liked getting cozy on the couch. I have a feeling we might have to keep an eye on them in the future! ;-)

Emmalyn looking down from the observation deck on the bridge over the Rio Grande River. It was pretty high up, but it didn't seem to bother her a bit!

Blake swinging for the first time!
