Nothing too exciting about this leg of the trip.. pretty much stayed on I-40 until we reached Albuquerque. Oh ya we did drive through Texas.
So our trip was broken up with stops at State lines to take a picture--- bathroom and fuel breaks-- Lincoln was a pretty good traveler until we got him out of his carseat to change his diaper or stretch and then he HATED getting back in his carseat. Once he was in and settled he was fine but it was quite the fight getting him buckled. We also managed to listen to General Conference--- all but the last session during our last two days so that kept our attention for a big part of the drive. When we arrived in Albuquerque we ate at a New Mexican Food place. It was alright. We drove around the city a bit to check it out and then headed back to our hotel to watch the NCAA basketball championship game. University of Kentucky were the champions. Go Wildcats.
Day 4- The next morning we woke up to a BLIZZARD! It was crazy.... I did not think that we would run into any horrible weather, especially in New Mexico. Luckily it lasted probably only for about a hour but I hate traveling in snow storms-- so it was a slow first hour. The rest of the drive from New Mexico was pretty boring-- we went through the Indian Reservations for a big part of the drive and we were welcomed back into the Desert! We were used to the Kentucky Green of everything and once we hit NM and Arizona, and then Utah it was back to the Desert that I know and love. Oh ya and the MOUNTAINS. We love the mountains and are excited to be back home in UTAH close to family.
Yay for road trips, new adventures, and changes!

Jealous of your fun drive. I am dreading our drive back to Utah.
