Thanksgiving in El Paso – November 2005

Published on Saturday, December 10th, 2005 by Joey

LD and I spent Thanksgiving week with my parents in El Paso. She and I were both on the mend after a couple of weeks of flu, so we took it easy – LD spent a lot of time knitting, we took a drive through the upper valley, had lunch at Little Diner in Canutillo, and saw a couple of movies (’Good Night and Good Luck’ and ‘Pride and Prejudice’).

Toward the end of the week we were feeling a little more adventurous, so we went hiking up above the theater in McKelligon canyon and then drove to Chico’s Tacos for some lunch.

Mother’s Day in El Paso – May 2004

Published on Monday, May 17th, 2004 by Joey

Troy, Kay, and I drove to El Paso on May 5th with the intention of spending the Mother’s Day weekend remodeling Mama’s kitchen. (Roadtrip!)

Papa had already removed some of the cabinets and taped, floated, and painted the new walls. We spent the next few days cutting tile, sweating new joints into the plumbing, running new lights and outlets, and replacing all of the cabinets and countertops.

Ross and Kat were in El Paso while we were and we spent some time with them while we were there.

I hope we can do more family projects like this. It was fun to all work on the project together.
