Jake & Katie Visit - Part 2

The first full day, we took things a bit easy.

The kids were fascinated with Aunt Katie’s new toy.

Both of them fought for space on her lap to be close to the stories it told.

The following day we headed up Sandia Peak to see the sights.

Yikes! Not those sights.

Nobody wants to see those.

(You may just want to look away now.)

It was good and snowy up on the peak.

I wouldn’t bring it up with Nate or Jake if I were you.

Let’s just say that trying to help Albuquerqueians stuck in the snow is a fruitless venture.

Some of them can be a tad clueless when it comes to snow.

We know of at least two.

It was a bright, beautiful, windy, cold day.

And I forgot my coat and had to squeeze into a sweater that’s really too small for me.

What I’m saying is, please don’t look at me.

Please.

Probably would have been another good time to look away.

You still can, you know.

The view really is great up on the mountain.

We took a quick looksie…

It was cold in them there hills!!

Anara grew quite attached to Jake.

Of course, she liked hanging with Aunt Katie a lot too.

Gah!! Thanks for the photo op, Jake.

Okay, I seriously can’t believe you’re still looking.

I warned you and warned you to look away.

You have nobody but yourself to blame for making it this far.

Bwahaha. Looks like a fun visit! I keep asking Ryan when I can go and he keeps telling me how expensive it is to fly and how far it is to drive. Doh. Anyhow I still can't believe all that snow when we have none. crazy!

Yes, there were several times I chose to look away but they weren't usually at the same times that you suggested it.

I had a ton of fun though!
