We decided to take our first family road trip to Santa Fe this summer to visit Henry's Uncle Skip and Aunt Claudia. On the way we stopped in Colorado Springs to visit Skip, Kathy and Emily and also take in the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. This was Henry's first trip to the zoo and we couldn't have picked a better one! If you have never visited, you should make it a point, it's a wonderful little secret!

Henry wasn't sure what he thought about the giraffe that could walk right up and eat from your hands, but he did love the noisy monkeys and wandering peacocks!

From Colorado Springs, it was still a good 3 hour drive to Santa Fe and Henry did terrific! He slept for a good portion and got to watch a movie, so it wasn't too bad at all!
Our first day in Santa Fe we spent the morning touring the galleries on Canyon Road. The weather was perfect and coolish, and Henry was quite the trooper, we definitely wore him out!
Henry was immediate best friends with his Aunt Claudia!
Henry Also got quite the kick out of the dogs Kajeta and Castro. Even though there was a small incident when Henry got in the way of Castro's must-chase-ball instincts. He got toppled over and managed to scrape up his forehead, but he a good sport and was back to playing with them in no time.
We had a great time visiting and spent a lot of time just chillin' out at the house and chatting away. We can't wait to go back and visit again soon!
