my mom + the mountains.


a couple weeks ago, i met up with my sister & little man & headed to the mountains to see our mom!  mom & ray retired & moved into their dream mountain home in angel fire a year ago.  they absolutely love the cool mornings, the beautiful mountains, the tall trees, & the ever frequent wild animal sightings.


our first new mexico meal was at a fantastic mexican restaurant in santa fe.  we enjoyed a delicious mexican beer, spicy salsa, & fresh guacamole made tableside.  real mexican food with a gorgeous view.   so good.  little man totally agreed.


each morning we woke up to find deer in my mom's front yard!  they even let us come out onto the porch before running back into the woods. so neat.  


each afternoon we would find little hummingbirds buzzing around the hummingbird feeders on the porch.  have you ever actually seen a hummingbird?  they fly around so quickly & make so much sound while flying.  those little wings flap so quickly that it sounds like they are buzzing around.  pretty cool.


the views around the neighborhood are simply stunning.  malcolm & dakota {my mom & ray's sweet boxer} loved going on walks with us to enjoy the beautiful views & the fresh air.

{hello mountains!}


after spending a lot of our time outside, we went inside to play play play with little man!  oh my goodness, i had missed my nephew.  he really is the best.

{bath time fun with mom & grandma!}
