Curtis Family Connection: Home Again...

We are home again. It was a 10 hour drive to come home but we made it by 9:30pm Saturday night. The kids are glad to be home but also sad that they had to leave all the kids at the Stagg house. With our 2 families and Drew's niece there was 13 all together (5 adults and 8 kids under the age of 10). We had alot of fun. We went to the Rio Grande Zoo, The Aquarium, we went and saw the new Disney movie WALL...E. Becky and I were also able to kid away for an afternoon to have a GIRL'S DAY- we went shopping and got Pedicure. The 4 adults were also able to enjoy a date night in which we rode the Sandia Tram which took us up to an elevation of over 10,000 feet, the views were spectacular and then we went to dinner and then back to the movies to see Hancock. On our last day there we went and spent some time in the Jemez mountains roasting hotdogs and letting the kids shoot the BB gun and .22 rifle. We tried on 2 occasions to go swimming however 1st day the pool was cleared out within the first 5 minutes of us getting in due to the threat of thunderstorms. Once they clear the pool for rain they have to wait 1 hour before letting anyone in. We got a rain check and planned on going back however when we went back the pool it was closed due to low water clarity (the water looked Green), so then we tried to go to another pool but as we where going in Austin's toe had an argument with the door and the toe LOST!. Austin lost the entire big toenail (picture below), so we had to run him to the urgent care to make sure everything was ok and get some antibiotics. All the kids enjoyed spending time together and we all had a fun time together. Becky and the kids will be here the first part of Austin to pack up her parents house (they are finally moving down to New Mexico)
