New Mexico

After Daddy’s conference was over we headed south. We stopped at Garden of the Gods park in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and had a picnic lunch--just like two years ago. Then we kept driving and driving and finally arrived in New Mexico--not old Mexico. We went to visit my friend Emery, or EJ as he calls himself (just like two years ago). Mommy and Daddy are close friends with Emery’s parents. Emery just got a brand-new little sister. She mostly slept while we were there, maybe in another 2 years we will have fun playing with her, too. They live in an adobe house! We had lots of fun; we took a walk at the base of the Sandia (Watermelon) Mountains. We found some cool bugs; mom was on the lookout for scorpions and tarantulas. I wish EJ and his family lived close by. We’d have lots of fun running around and around.
