I have not blogged in a very very long time. I suppose I have had the ultimate "blogger's block." Well, I am trying to do better. Now that we are nearly 1,000 miles away from most family, I feel I need to be better at updating things about my family.
Today we went to a little town called Artesia. It is 40 minutes (depending on how fast your drive) from Roswell (our current city). Jason had a work meeting there this morning. Being spring break, the girls and I went with him. In Artesia, there are a lot of little monuments and sight seeing things to visit. The girls and I were spending some time in a little side alley on Main St. They have fun little fountains with little rivers and neat art work telling the history of this area.
Tressa and Hailee were having a good time jumping over the little rivers and splashing their hands in the water fountains. I warned them repeatedly that they needed to be careful so they would not fall into the water. But said, "OKAY!!!!" and kept on playing. I turned my back on Tressa to see what Hailee was up to, and I heard a sound like someone was taking a huge breath in (imagine jumping into a really cold lake or something... you tend to inhale really fast and hard-that is what I heard). I turned around to see Tressa climbing out of the water fountain. She had fallen in to the 1 1/2 foot deep water and managed to get completely drenched, head to toe. I couldn't help but laugh. It was a comical sight. She was not as thrilled with it, but it made for a very interesting morning!
All is well here in New Mexico! Hope it is the same where you are!
