Our trip to Abq

Day 1: Leave at 7:45 am Brynlee sleeps from Lakeside all the way to Grants (3 hour drive) I pull in for Gas and she wakes up hungry. I get Gas feed Brynlee and get on the road again. Brynlee starts to fuss, I give her her Binky and she is quiet all the way to Abq (1 hour). I also got a speeding Ticket on the way out. That night we spent at the house with Mamaw and Bop who just loved little Brynlee.

We had good food, good cakes, fire works, presents, and a good time. Josh, Leilani, and Brownie even flew down for the party!

Day 6: Sleep in, Get loaded up and leave the house by 10:30am, get to the lot and wait for my car to be fixed/eat lunch from Baggins!, car fixed leave town about 12:30pm, drive to grants, Brynlee wakes I stop and feed her, Brynlee remains fussy for a while, get stuck in a long line of traffic because a semi turned over in a construction zone, get in a Minor fender bender/ no car damage/ everyone ok/ drive on, Stop in Snowflake for gas, get dinner, get home, feed Brynlee, start to eat, get talked into going to Grammy and Grandpa's house, go hang out for about an hour/finish eating dinner/pick up cowgirl, go home, unload car, inventory James' ammo, put Brynlee to sleep IN HER OWN BED!, talk to James till 2 am, go to sleep!

Day 5: We went to the party and every one wanted to hold Brynlee.

Uncle JP......Cousin Conner.....Aunt Susan.....It took Cousin Kaite a while to warm up but after finding out that Uncle James had heard that Conner held Brynlee and thought it was Pretty cool.....Even Cousin Kaite wanted to hold her and not let her go!Leilani was a little nervous to start but quickly became comfortable with her and got to feed herJosh took Brynlee when Leilani was done and held her while I ate dinner Conner got to help her finish her bottleThen we had cake! They have the same tradition as my family(see my mom's blog and the video for details)Skip and Ellen Ann where the 50 and 52, Sue is the 60, I'm the 23, and JP turned 40!
After cake we opened presents. I got a book, some money, a few cards, an i-tunes gift card, and a Dream Tin with horses on it.
