Mexico Thanksgiving 2007

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!! I know that this is pretty late, but I hope that you all had a great Thanksgiving. I had a good one too, but it was quite an adventure, isn't it always an adventure when you go to Mexico? hahaha....
Anyways, this year we went to Blaine's family and spent Thanksgiving there. Lot's of good food to eat! I love food! My dream job is to be a food critic, how wonderful would that be, but then I would be obese.
We were able to go to one of his family's ranch house (Stairs) and go exploring there. I was surprised at how beautiful that area was. I thought that Mexico was all desert, but it was so pretty there. Lot's of trees, like a forest. We found some pottery and a corn grinder from old indian ruins. That was really cool... we stole them and brought them to our house, so hopefully we don't get bad luck. :) Then there was a huge snow storm on Saturday and at night the lights and water went out till Sunday afternoon, so that was pretty exciting. aaahh... good memories, good memories. hahaha.... Other than that, we all had a good time and overall it was a great Thanksgiving.

Traveling to Mexico


Grandma Jennifer (Blaine's Mom) and with some of her grandchildren


Emi and all her cousins on Thanksgiving Day


Greyson, Preslee, and Cash by the lake at the Stairs




Blaine, Derryl (Blaine's brother) and I hiked up this mountain. It doesn't look too big in this picture. Hiking this mountain was pretty scary because there were no trails and I think Derryl led us the wrong way. Anyways, some parts felt like we were rock climbing this mountain.

Blaine and I at the top of this mountain.



Emi playing with her great Grandpa. This was the first time that they met.


Another picture of Emi doing one of her tricks. We say "Kawaii nee" in Japanese and in English it means, "I'm cute" and so when we say this, she always tilts her head and makes like she's pretty. She's such a vain little girl. :)
