New Mexico, Utah, and Lots of Places in Between

So what do you do after a previous year filled with multiple surgeries and countless doctors visits? You take a much need 2 week vacation to visit family and friends! And that is just what I did...Only problem was Dave had to stay behind because he didn't have much time-off left after all those surgeries and doctors visits taking care of me! Here are all the details (along with a gazillion pictures and more to follow on additional posts)!

2 days in Albuquerque, NM
4 tennis matches watching my stud of a brother play

1 family pizza party with lots of cousins, aunts, and uncles

4 days in Farmington, NM
