El Paso

Chad and I went on yet another trip this past weekend. We had some friends of ours getting married so we decided to make a weekend out of it and go visit all of our friends back in El Paso. We had a great weekend and a huge thanks goes out to Leslie and Mike Register for putting us up for the weekend. It made us realize how much we miss you! Chad's brother happened to be in Las Cruces, New Mexico for work so we managed to squeeze in some family time while we were out west. The weather was nice, as it always is in El Paso, but I was so glad to come home to 60 degree weather! The 100 plus degree summer we had has made me very angry towards hot weather. Bring on the chilly mornings and steamy cups of coffee. I am ready for fall!  

I won't bore you with all the meaningless details but this last trip home has made me very thankful we are not going anywhere until Thanksgiving. Chad had to fly to Austin to work for his Guard unit so that meant I was traveling solo with The Monster. Let's just say a squirmy child with a dirty diaper that he had to endure for an hour, me trying to use the bathroom with him strapped to my chest and a plane delay were all events that made this my last trip for awhile. I do enjoy traveling and I am very thankful that Gavin is an easy travel companion but it is nice to be home and back on a schedule. Not to mention, my wine collection cannot take another hit like it did last night when I got home.

Gavin and Sock Monkey. He saw this in the store and almost lunged out of Chad's arms for it. He LOVES him.

He wants to walk so bad!

Mommy and Gavin. Yeah so I went ahead and cut my hair again. I will compromise with Chad on something else...

The Mihalek boys.
