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 Two


Well lets just say Friday was a much better day than a slighty chaotic Wednesday and Thursday.

We Played some more tennis, as per usual and ran some errands to the mall and target, etc, etc, etc.

In the evening we dined at this AWESOME local pizza place- gourmet like pizza- that makes thier own bread and everything- think Boudin's meets CPK. It's called Zeffiro's and I can't stress to you how absolutely fantastic the food was and the bread and the desert and the staff! Super YUM!


Mom bought us all tickets to see a play at one of the community theatre, called Look Homeward Angel...and we did, at intermission....the spa was much more tempting than the less than mediocre acting we were painfully sitting through! I always feel bad about leaving a preformance early, especially at a small venue where your presence or lack thereof is clearly apparent....but we just couldn't take it any more!!!!!!



Anyway, another great day full of great memories!
