Unexpected Vacation...

This was just one of those weeks in our home that everyone just was bracing themselves b/c each day held a new challenge: work, early intervention, home life, etc. You name it and Chris and I were getting our butts kicked. So Friday afternoon Chris informed me that we were going to spend the weekend in Ruidosa NM b/c thanks to a sweet turn of events we had Saturday night covered for us at the Inn of the Mountain Gods. I don't think you could have had two people pack bags fast enough enough for their little family of five. Come Saturday morning we were ready to kiss Las Cruces GOOD BYE!!!!

When we got there everything was perfect. It was even a pleasent ride up w/the Cupcakes sleeping and Harmon singing his songs. The room overlooked the lake and the weather was great. As were coming my inlaws were leaving and when Harmon saw his beloved MiMa, as always he was completely snookered. MiMa and PawPaw volunteered to take him so we could have a chance to spend a little one on one w/the twins (which we had never done). Needless to say we missed our Harmon, but it was nice that our twins got a chance to have an adventure like little Harmon has had with us.

So we spent the Saturday and Sunday having a little relaxation time. It was so nice to just re-energize in probably one of my favorite places (I grew up visiting Ruidosa w/my family). The twins strolled the village w/us and loved the pool at night. Today we even attended church w/a small group of Apache's in Mescalero. When Harm was a baby we took him everywhere but b/c the twins were so premature they scarcely left the house during RSV season (which only ended in May). This was their first adventure out of town and it was so much fun getting to know them on a new level. Next adventure though we need our Harmon! And seeing that we have the gypsy spirit I don't doubt it won't be long ;)
