Texas 2008

Dale and I decided at the last minute to go to Texas to see my best friend Lisa and her parents, who we call Grandpa & Grandma Gomez. It was Addie's first trip out of state and on a plane at 7 months of age. She was comical to say the least. She was very calm until she saw all the buttons, gadgets, window, people and then away she went. Thank God the ride was only 1 hours and 45 minutes long. She definitely is a bundle of energy. I truly think she belongs to my brother more than me as she displays strong characteristics of him-friendly, outgoing, wanting attention, getting attention, being silly, and always trying to break out of something.

When we landed she right away was at home with Auntie Lisa. We went somewhere just about everyday. We went to New Mexico for lunch, went up on a tram to see the entire city, drove to the star that sits on the hillside since the war began, visited her church, and waiting with anticipation for her grandparents to arrive.

She started displaying her crawling skills or lack of, but she can move somehow, it just doesn't look like crawling. She loved playing with Max & Jakey the Gomez dogs. This was one of the times we saw her just laugh hysterically as they played with Dale all sorts of games dogs enjoy.

When her grandparents arrived, she just loved being in their arms and getting all that love, it was a hard departure. It was worth every penny we put into that trip to be with them.

Thanks Gomez Family for opening your doors to us and sending us away with blessings!
