4th in Eagle Nest, NM

by Holly

We spent 4 days in Eagle Nest, NM at my parents' trailer house and enjoyed beautiful weather and a nice break from reality. Besides Justin, Eli and myself, the crowd included my mom, my grandparents and Justin's parents.
Eli enjoying some yummy chocolate ice cream from Kawlija's after the parade.

Eli, Mama and Daddy just after the parade was over. Eli had a blast! And this was the first time I've ever seen a boat as part of a parade- very fun.

Eli's very first parade candy. He was so excited, and made a great haul. The people in the chairs behind him made sure a lot of candy was thrown to him, and they shared all they caught with him as well. Thanks!


Serious farmer playing with his tractors on the porch. Eli doesn't do much at all without his John Deere hat, and even got to wear his John Deere boots for the first time this weekend.


Playing Cowbows and Indians on the porch. The slats in the porch made small toys a risk, and my mom did end up having to fish some things out such as playing cards, dice... :)

Hey Holly! These are the BEST pictures ever. Looks like ya'll had a very nice 4th. It rained on our parade - literally :( . I love the pic of Eli playing with his tractors. And I love the countdown clock. Hopefully we can get together soon. Cheryl
