the last leg of the trip, NM...



After KC, we went to Wichita to see James' Dad and Grandma Vivian and pick up Sherri to ride back with us. I will post those pics as soon as I get them. These are pictures from the day we spent in Albuquerque. New Mexico has the most amazingly vivid rainbows I have ever seen. It is just beautiful. We loved our hotel there, but the shop owners in Old Town were not kid friendly, so we didn't do as much shopping as we wanted to. I did get to experience some over priced authentic stacked enchiladas with a fried egg on top, though, and it was DISGUSTING! The smell of Pinon wood burning everywhere we walked almost made up for it. Love that smell!

We drove from Wichita to Anthony to Albuquerque and were in the car for about 13 hours give or take. This collage captures the chaos of the car ride, complete with Lucy smelling her blanket, Shelby squeezing Jesse's cheeks, lots of giggling, & Sherri wearing my glasses under a pile of blankets and pillow pets...Doesn't it look like a dream?! I don't know how she survived back there! Good memories, good times...
