Nooo-weh-voah Meh-hee-koah

Derek, James and I went on our first NM vacation as a family this last week. James had never been--had never even met my sisters, nor his cousins. Since he's coming up on a year old, we decided it was about time we made the trip. We spent a whole six days there (if traveling days count), and we loved every bit of it! Thank you to all who made the trip possible, and shame on you if you didn't miss us while we were gone! ;)

I DID! I missed you guys! Looks like fun. I'm really enjoying the old man chair. James looks like a stud. How did he do on the plane? Weren't you guys gone longer than what I was told? Glad you're back!

You make me laugh! Seriously, I was laughing out loud- until I saw my ARM FLAB picture and then I puked. Thanks....but I forgive you. Atleast you decided against posting the hospital ones. It could always be worse. We miss James! Bring him back!!!!!!!

Tori, I believe you are the anonymous commentor. If so, I have a reply: The reason we didn't post any of you is because all the pics with you in them are ON YOUR CAMERA!! So send me a CD, and I promise I'll do a post specifically dedicated to Tia Tori! ;) I love you! (And I'm serious about the CD...)

It's so weird to see all your family again! I'm not sure I've ever met your dad, but I've met everyone else. I was disappointed there was no Jorge (was there?). I haven't seen him forever...or Dena...since right before Reuben was born. Your mom changed her hair color and really doesn't look like a grandma at all. What a fun trip. :)
