New Mexico...The Land of Enchantment.

Our road trip is under way. We left Tuesday February 24th, at 11:00am and drove to Las Cruces New Mexico to visit Great Grandma Louise Dunmar. It took us 6 hours and we stopped only a few times to switch off driving, stretch our backs (mainly Jon), get a picture with the "Welcome to New Mexico" sign and eat lunch. Mikayla did really well in the car ride, we definitely took advantage of the short breaks to do diaper changes and feed her and let her stretch her legs too.

Mikayla enjoyed meeting her Great Grandma (GiGi) and proudly wore the dress that GiGi bought her. We had a wonderful dinner with Grandma Louise on Tuesday night. On Wednesday Jon played a quick round of golf and then we all went to a small town called Mesilla where we visited the Pecan Groves, got a drink at Chopes bar and had dinner at Peppers Mexican Restaurant. We stayed two nights and left early on Thursday morning headed to our next destination - Houston, Texas.

Welcome to New Mexico Mikayla!
