Road Trip!

We took our first family road trip last week to visit my grandparents in Ruidoso, NM. We left Wednesday night and then came back on Sunday. It was a LONG drive! 10 hours! Those of you who know me know that I do not like to ride in the car for a long time, so it was a whipping! But, I was very proud of Abby. She was great! I really think it was the perfect age to take her on this trip. If she had been a little older and could move around she would not have wanted to be in that car seat. She was a good girl!
We really enjoyed the time with Barb and Henry ... grandma's cookin', the beautiful weather, lots of relaxing, going to the horse races (we won $30!) and playing games. It was a fun trip, we wished we could have stayed longer.
Abby learned a new trick while in Ruidoso. We have been blowing our lips and she thinks it is really funny. Well, now she does it herself and she drools all over the place. We think it is pretty cute!

Hey Holm fam! I am glad Abby did so well on your trip. We just got to Texas. Maddox wasn't so fond of the 21 hours in his car seat, but we made it. I have tagged you on my blog under "Tag...I'm it". You can read my blog to get the rules of passing the tag on. Have a great weekend!
