New Mexico Bound

Well, okay.  Couldn't resist....once I started looking at my NM pics, I had to type up a post - real quick like.

So, here we are preparing to head to the airport.  Layla was dressed to kill.  Thanks to Matilda Jane and Snazzie Drawers.  A big shout out to those fabulous ladies, once again!

Here we are arriving at the airport, with a few pit stops to prepare ourselves....

{for baby girl}

Although I think I needed her straw size...ha!  I kid, I kid....kinda.

Although this was not Layla's first airplane trip, I do believe it is the first one she will recall.  And boy, she was ex-cit-ed!!!  Proof below.

And when you have a flight crew as fun as the one we had...it was only a glimpse of the fun times to come...

It was a easy trip with my lil one.  Thanks to her Disney DVD player and my corona. 

The views = amazing.

There was one issue.  The popping of the lil ones ears while landing....

Popped in some gum to chew on...blew out while holding her nose closed...and all was well in the world again. 

Stay tuned for our El Paso landing and beyond...it is truly quite a story to tell!

Re-group

Hey ya'll!  I am so anxious to tell you about our fantastic, rejuvenating, awe-inspiring trip to New Mexico, but I have over 700 pictures to sift through.  {Gotta love what a new camera brings...}

And a Meli Faif post would not be complete without pictures to coincide...right?!  Right!

But, stay tuned....I have a lot to share.  I am guessing my next week posts will be ALL New Mexican.

But, today?  Today my heart is with Japan.  And my hope and prayers are with them as well.

Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.

I'm not waiting...hope you are not either!

Waiting for the fish to bite

or waiting for wind to fly a kite.

Or waiting around for Friday night

or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake

or a pot to boil

or a better break or a string of pearls

or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another chance.

Everyone is just waiting.

~Dr. Seuss
