Matthew and I have been in Santa Fe, NM for 7 days, 6 nights, celebrating our 5th year anniversary and my birthday. My parents were sweet enough to take Audrey and they have been loving every minute.
(On the "High Road" to Taos)It has been so great not having to be anywhere, go to bed at a certain time or wake up at a certain time. We have eaten wherever we wanted to and whenever!
On the first day we arrived we checked into our hotel and took a 3 HOUR NAP, we haven't done that in years! The rest of the week has been a blurr of fun intermixed with head-colds. We have not allowed our stuffy noses to keep us from having fun.
(Buying Turquoise Earrings on the Plaza)
We have...shopped on the Plaza, had some pink margaritas, gone to 3 museums, brunched at a chocolatier/bakery, shopped, took a road trip on the High Road to Taos, shopped at the outlet mall, had my ears pierced, watched 2 theater movies, ate a whole lot of Mexican food, visited the Taos Pueblos (the oldest continuously inhabited community), went to 2 historic Catholic Churches and Shopped some more!
(Matthew in Front of Basilica de St. Francisco)We have missed Audrey so, so much! We are looking forward to getting home and getting back to our normal, responsible selves.
(By the way: Kokopelli is a Southwestern American Indian icon that represents music and fertility and is everywhere you look in Santa Fe!)

And I almost didn't check your blog today! i'm so glad to hear you've had a great time! Can't wait to see those new earrings! ;O)
sounds like a great trip!
NO wonder you looked so refreshed on Sunday. Congratulations on 5 years, but more so on getting away with your husband!
Looks like you had a great time. Haven't checked your blog in a while. Congrats on 5 years and posting.lol..
Sounds like a grand time. While yer brother was visiting we kept "threatening" to call hoping to catch the two of you at the most inappropriate of moments, but we resisted. That area, Taos etc. is so full of history and "neat" places, not to mention that it's a stone's throw from my most fave place in the world, Platoro Co. I think we should all meet there sometime. But that's my dream, I'm quite sure few will share it with me. Thanks for the update.
