We left early on Friday so that we could stop at an outlet mall outside of El Paso. It's a pretty new outlet mall, but very nice. They had a Carter's outlet so Logan got a couple of new PJ's and some summer outfits. They also had a Bath and Body Works outlet so I was pretty happy. Everyone else arrived around dinner time, Julie and her family were a little later.
On Saturday we drove to White Sands for the day. We had hoped to spend most of the day there but our trip was cut short due to the wind. It got pretty bad around lunch time. You can click the pictures to make them bigger.
Here's all the kids, well everyone except Logan. All the kids got buckets and shovels with their initials on them. Getting them to stay put for 1 minute while we took the picture was a little challenging. Elizabeth (in the center) was already putting her shovel to use.
Logan had no interest in climing the dunes, so he stayed at the bottom and dug, played with trucks and buried dinosaurs.
Dan carried Logan to the top of one of the dunes. Hold on to your hats, here comes the wind.
Here's Elizabeth, the youngest of the 7 cousins, determined to make her way to the top.Some scenic shots of White Sands.
The rest of the weekend was nice. Saturday night was dinner with everyone at Dions and dessert at Scoopy's (a yummy frozen custard place, wish they had one here).
Sunday we spend the morning at a park, then William and Andrew got to open some birthday gifts, they're birthday's are both next week. Then it was lunch and everyone hit the road. We were home by about 3:30pm.
