RUIDOSO

I know what you are thinking...I have already seen this post...but you haven't !! Yes, we went on another trip to Ruidoso. One last trip before school starts. It was bitter sweet because I am pretty sure I won't get back out there again until April 2010 (man that seems like a long time away....remind me of that when tax season starts...ha ha) Mike made the comment it would be nice to go this winter and sit by the fireplace and eat a bowl of chili. Ok..honestly how many people want to drive 4 hours to eat a bowl of chili ? Well, it really sounded good to me and of course I said, "When are we coming back ?"

This trip Jeremy, Toni, Cooper, and Diggs went with us. We met in Brownfield and drove in together. Cooper was a blast and kept us laughing the whole time. Diggs (being 4 weeks old) was sooo sweet to hold and love on and then when the dirty diaper came...it was time for Mama. What a great Aunt I am..ha ha

On Saturday we went to the horse races. Diggs was fed right before we left and he slept the WHOLE time. He didn't wake up not once with all that was going on around him.

Of course the deer are always a treat to get to see. Just walk out on the patio and there they are. It is amazing how gentle they are.

The hot tub was a BIG hit !! Everytime we turned around one, two, or all three of the kids were in it. This has become on my MUST HAVE list. Mike says he will have the deck and porch built by Christmas. Jeremy even volunteered to help.

Okay..What I need to do is put a slide show together of all of the trips to Ruidoso for 2009. I probably won't get that done today...but hopefully soon.
