New Mexico Weekend

Emma had a 3 day weekend and with no snow near us, we headed to New Mexico to do some skiing and explore a new state.
On the first day there, we headed to Taos. Ian and I explored the town while Dan and Emma got in some skiing.

Mountains and Snow!

Emma ended up getting her own ski instructor

On Saturday, we visited the local Indian Pueblo on our way back to Santa Fe

On Sunday, we headed to Albuquerque and with a little time before our flight, visited the Petroglyph National Monument. Emma had to draw some pictographs for school around Thanksgiving, so she was excited to see the ancient writing and climb the volcanic rock hills.

One of the many pictographs we saw

Ian did a great job climbing, but got a little help on the tricky parts.

We also got our fill of Mexican food! Yum! Overall we had a great weekend exploring a new place.
