El Paso Trip

Shortly after our trip to Utah, we drove down to El Paso with Russ for the week to keep him company while he worked. He has been staying at a crazy house way up on top of the hill with fabulous views into Juarez, Mexico... and a pool where we planned to spend most of our time. Unfortunately, the pool was out of commission while we were there, so the kids and I had a lot of time on our hands during the day while Russ was gone... but we still managed to have a good time. In place of the pool, the kids spent hours playing in the jacuzi tub...


We spent one day at the zoo, and followed all the signs to Juarez to get there...

And we visited some of Russ' family friends, Joe and Sue Gonzalez. I wish we had taken pictures at their house. They were so kind, and we all had such a great time with them! Maybe we'll see them on some of their trips to Albuquerque!
