New Mexico Trip

We had a great trip out to New Mexico to visit family. It was my (kk) first time in the desert land. We got to visit K-rin's parents & brother in Hobbs. Then, we headed off to visit David's grandparents in Alamogordo. The scenery was vastly different between the two. My (kk)parents live in the heart of oil country (dry, desert, and barren). David's grandparents live in the shadow of the Sacremento Mountains (right beside White Sands), very beautiful.
It took us a day of flying to get there (and of course one back). So, our visits were very short with both sides of the family. Although, we're glad we got to spend time with everyone! We had a great time....and now we can tell ED that they went to New Mexico too!!
