Day 4- Tennis, Swim, Veg....

...AND WHITE SANDS!!!!!!!!


As stated in the title, we did the regular this Sunday Morning- actually we even watched some of the Sunday Morning Program which is celebrating 30 years on air.

The day was pretty chill until we headed out to White Sands National Park to do some sand sledding!


The whole evening was sooooo awesome! We packed up an Italian lunch of bread from Zeffiro's in town, and procuito(sp?), salami and lots of cheese...oh yeah and Smoking Loon wine too! The dunes look like snow in the winter, and the sand is finer than any other sand that I have experienced. Aaron said it was like walking on velvet. We hiked out a little ways and found a killer dune with a great incline and blazed a trail down it. The more you use the same trail, the faster you go. Not to mention the friends of my mom's that loaned us the sleds waxed them up before we left- so they were super slick! Some other people followed after us, and used our trail so it kept getting faster. The Scenery was spectacular too. This post will have ALL White Sands picutres since it was the highlight of our day and freakin awesome!

Las Cruces Day Three- Saturday

Saturday was another great day. Getting up is getting harder, especially with the thought of work on the horizon...but I trying not to think about that quite yet!


Today, of course, started with tennis. We are averaging about 2-3 hours of tennis per morning. This morning Aaron signed up for a lesson with the club pro to work on his serve, which proved very helpful! Getting a new serve in tennis is always a difficult taks. It's new moves throws you off, but once you get in the groove of the motion things start to even out and your serve really starts to come along. Aaron is on the new end of the serve, but each time he serves you can see the progession into an awesome swing starting to shine through.

The day also took us on some more errands, and a great stop for lunch at Sonic! Yum Cherry Slush!!!!!!!! I am still drinking it as I am sitting here writing this- YUMMMMM and no freezing headache yet!!!!!

I had to share this great video with you of Katie, unbeknowenst to her, rocking out on film to knock three times. I hope you get a good laugh out of this as we all did, watching her.... It's all in good fun kate! hahahah!
