After we left Palo Duro Canyon in Amarillo, we headed west to New Mexico. There was a state park that DJ wanted to check out. We loaded up and headed out. The girls got comfy cozy in the back seat.
And Gabby and I got comfy cozy in the front.
DJ let Gretchen drive the truck and camper (which I haven't even done) when we were on a straight stretch of highway. I was terrified, but she ended up doing a really good job.
As we got closer to the park, our GPS took us off a dirt road to cut through- had we known we wouldn't have gone down the road with the camper- plus it was raining! But thankfully we didn't get stuck!
We found our spot, and got all set up. The scenery was gorgeous!
The girls walked around the campsite, we played some games inside, and it stopped raining long enough to grab some pictures.
The girls bundled up and played games while DJ cooked dinnide.
I walked in and found them all cuddled up on our bed.
After dinner, we went for a drive.
The lake and the sunset was breathtaking.
The next morning we got up and drove in to Raton for breakfast.
We found a little place downtown, ordered, and ate and then got back in to the car for our drive in to Colorado.
We stopped at Costco in Denver and grabbed some groceries and lunch before heading in to the mountains.
Once we got set up, we realized there were a ton of mosquitos! It was also my birthday, and all I wanted was to get dressed up, take some pictures, and have dinner downtown- so that's exactly what we did.
