It is amazing how the hum of an airplane at 10,000 feet can be so soothing. We are traveling back from a quick family visit in New Mexico. One kid is watching Scooby Do, the other is sleeping, the adults should really be sleeping, but one is to0 busy reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and the other is too busy blogging.
We had a great time!! It was bit chaotic at times with four people under the age of five all wanting attention, but it was still very rewarding visiting Papa and Coco and watching the cousins interact. And now for some pictures......
Portable DVD players make traveling so much easier. Put in a movie and let the kids zone out for a couple of hours....We know, we know...this is not the best parenting because TV will rot their brain, but you know what......
Drinking beer at the airport bar during a layover with your kids is not the best parenting either....but it does keep us all a bit sane
Below is the crew at La Posta enjoying some good Mexican food and drink. We ate & drank fast at the restaurant. One could make an argument it was the adults not wanting the margaritas to go warm…..or the craziness of 4 kids. You decide
Tommy, Ben and Kate all made a wish at a fountain in the restaurant.
Kate and Andy hanging out will we waited for a table
Here are all the kids. Kate, Tommy, Ben and Andy.
We made a trip to White Sands. It is a really cool place. 275 square miles of a white sand desert. We hiked around, sledded on the dunes, ate a picnic lunch and relaxed in the sun.

We went to the Flea Market one morning. The kids had a blast listening to the music and eating kettle corn.
