Just checking in.....

We are in Santa Fe and and having a good time. We had a good plane trip here and sat next to a man on the flight that is auctioneer. I thought Jacob would enjoy that because he really wants to go to a auction sometime. We got to their home and got settled. It was a full day with the cousins. We got to meet sweet Olivia Noel for the first time. She is only 4 months old and a very good baby. Jacob is enjoying his cousin time and I know he has felt stretched here and there but that is OK. He is a better child from times of stretching. This is the first time I have been on the computer since arriving. It is a treat! Andrew and Trae seem to be having a good time back home. They said we were missed. Andrews dad spent some one on one time with him yesterday, Andrew started his indoor soccer, watched guy movies, went to church and out to eat. I am so thankful my hubby is holding down the fort. We is picking us up at the airport on the 30th. I have enjoyed talking with my sissy and eating her husbands incredible cooking! It has been very easy staying on my plan here. He is one of the best cooks! They used to own a restaurant here in Santa Fe, NM and he has a passion for great food. He has grilled out twice and it is divine. He said his tip is low and slow. He has also made us some South Beach friendly almond bark that is incredible. We must buy quality knives when I get home. They have very nice ones and it makes a huge difference. I even used their treadmill. We went to church today and it was a great service. I brought the CD back for Trae to here. We are going to have some sissy time (out to lunch and I am hoping to stop at Trader Joes and Goodwill!) one day and we might take the kids to some of the galleries too. It is very pretty here! Spring is the perfect time of year to come.

You blogged! Just thought I would pop over and see and here you are! Miss your presence, girlie! So glad you are having such a sweet time! That sounds so great having someone cook for you- good food, at that! Trader Joes! You will have to tell me all about it. I bet you wish you were staying a little bit longer.
Maybe you can give me some new meal ideas from your brother in law. Look forward to seeing your pretty little face back here in God' Land!
