Albuquerque - Evans Central

We had the immense joy of spending three days with some of our favorite people...Paul, Natalie, & Brooklynn Evans! Paul and Nat went through training with us and were some of best friends over in Africa. They lived about 4 hours from us and we tried to visit them often to get away from where we were and be refreshed by spending time with them. Last time we saw them was the day we left and none of us (including them) knew that Nat was pregant with Brooklynn. So, we wanted to visit them and catch up and meet her.

We didn't do a whole lot while we there. We mostly hung out at their home because Brooke is so little, but Blake and I went to Old Town one morning. It's an ancient part of the city with lots of shops and a very pretty church.

We had an amazing time with our friends and I hope it's not another 10 months before we see them again! Brooke will be one and that's alot of cute stages to miss! We love you, Evans!

Vacation

Well, our boring lives have been more interesting this week! We are on vacation. It's been a fun week so far. I'll post pictures when we get home, but here's the itenirary:

Saturday-Sunday (last weekend): Off to Plano to stay with our friends Beau and Stacey and Harper and see Rickey and Megan and Isaiah (for the first time!).

Sunday: Gainesville for some quality time with my parents.

Monday-Wednesday: Albuquerque...staying with Paul and Natalie and meeting Brooklynn for the first time!

Thursday: Santa Fe...just the two of us.

Friday-Sunday: Guymon, OK. Not my dream vacation destination, but that's where my aunt & uncle and cousins live and we've never visited them without laughing at least a little bit!

Pictures to come next week!
