Santa Fe

Milly and Gilbo came to Lubbock Thursday night
for their 1st visit!
Not sure how they felt about the actual town
but it sure was good to see them
and show them around our new "home".

After Blake's final Friday
(he is finished with summer school
and did great! Woo Hoo)
we all loaded in the car
and headed to Santa Fe for the weekend.

We had a fabulous weekend doing
NOTHING.

We stayed in a cute little
2bed 2bath cottage
right off the Plaza
which was super convenient.

On our first walk around the plaza
we spotted this
and had to stop and snap a pic....
We then headed over to the
Loretta Chapel
to see the famous stairs...
We passed by
St. Francis Cathedral
and as we stopped to go inside
they locked us out....
Friday evening
a thunderstorm moved in.

My soul has been longing for rain
(it hasn't rained in Lubbock since October!)
so I was SO excited for rain
(the thunder, lightening
and cooler temps were
just icing on the cake)
We enjoyed sleeping in, reading
hanging out, relaxing
and exploring Santa Fe.
We had a lot of fun
and I'm so glad that we were able
to visit without an agenda with
my parents.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
