While Dan went to Seattle to spend a little time on this...
and that...
the boys and I went to NM to visit Grammy!
Our first stop was Red Lobster! Yum
Drew loves those crab legs!!!
and they both LUV dessert!!! Y
Grammy had gotten tickets from a customer to an Isotopes game!
They were awesome box seats! In that section, they spoil you with your own concession and everything!! We felt special!! WooWee!!!
We didn't get autographs from the team, but we did get one from the mascot!!
Another day we rode the new Railrunner train into Albuquerque to see a movie! The theater is right across the street from the train station in Alb! Talk about convenient!!
This trip was so much fun! Getting to talk and see all the sights and not have to worry about driving! Nice and relaxing! This was one of my favorite things we did!
We saw the new "Ice Age" movie. It was really cute!!
After the movie, we had some time before our train home, so what else would we do but visit the game room at the theater!
The boys even made a trip to Walmart fun!! ha ha
Another day Zach got to pick what we did, so off to Hinkley Family Fun we went! We all played a round of golf! (I got several holes in one! yay me!)
And the boys played a TON of video games and laser tag. They had sooooo much fun! A whole FIVE hours of fun while Grammy sat patiently and watched the boys with a happy smile on her face. Toward the end, I even played a few games and had a blast too! hee hee
Drew celebrated his actual birthday at Grammy's! He got this handsome watch from Uncle Mike! Thanks Uncle Mike!!
Money from his grandparents! Thanks Grandmommy and Granddaddy!!
A new bible (just like Dad's) with his name on it!!!
And a birthday wouldn't be complete without a game of pin the something star wars on the something star wars...
And of course we all got blindfolded and spun around!!!
Drew got to pick what we did on his birthday and he picked the Albuquerque Aquarium! We all enjoyed seeing the stingrays....
Eels and other large fish... 
sharks and this huge puffer fish! It stared at the boys for a really long time!!
We also went downstairs to steer the boat, but duh, we didn't realize the nice background in the back to pose against. (Thanks for showing us the right way to do it Lar!!)
Right down the street from the aquarium was the new Tingly Beach. We got there just as all the fun was closing down. We had planned to ride paddle boats, but no luck. :(
I'm TEN!
For dinner, Grammy took us to "The Melting Pot" to eat some fondue!! YUMMY!!!
We all enjoyed it, but dessert was my fav!! (oink oink!)
Grammy found everything fun to do in Albuquerque while we were there. This is called "Albuquerque Jumps" and it was two rooms full of blow up jumpers and slides! There was a whole day care group there, so it was EXTRA full and EXTRA loud! Again, Grammy sat so patiently watching the boys with a smile of contentment on her face!! (thanks Grammy!)
The week ended with my 20th high school reunion!! It was so fun seeing everyone (well, almost everyone ~April!!) :) again! Some people hadn't changed at all and others, well, yes, they had changed! Here I am with Sandra (the blond) who I had a lot of fun with way back when, and the other friend is Cassandra. I couldn't help but wish my nieces had been there to help me with my hair though! ha It hasn't changed much in 20 years either! ;)
As you can see, it was a fun filled week. It is always good to be at Grammy's. Thanks grammy for entertaining us and loving us! We love and miss you!!!

Wow! What a fun trip you guys had. You and Laurie are making me want to go and check out some of these awesome places. How fun to see your friends at the reunion! You looked super cute, by the way!
Albuquerque has a lot to offer...we definitely could have stayed longer. That train looked like a lot of fun! Funny we have some of the same pics of the aquarium too...the puffer fish and sting rays (I just tried to downsize and didn't include them). Looks like Grammy made sure you guys had a lot of fun! I enjoyed all the pics and can't wait to see you guys next week!:)
Loved your blue sundress btw! Very fab girl!!!
I had a great time too!
Wow, it looks like you had such a fun time!!! I can't believe you had your 20th reunion. You look way too young!!!
