day #9: mmmm mexican foood...

i love when i know about things tom doesn't. this morning his younger brother came into el paso on his journey back to the mitten. kj just got out of the marines. and though i will always know the army is better, i really respect what he's done for our country.

tom didn't find out about kj being here til he pulled into the driveway after work this afternoon. i think if it wouldnt of been for the big detroit "d" on the back of kj's truck, tom woulda been stressing, lol. so glad kj is here to spend some time with us before we all head to the mitten. gonna be great to see the rest of my 2nd family there as well. can't wait.

after a long, long excursion to walmart, we went out to carlos and mickey's for some mexican food for lunch. this restaurant is well known here in el paso. only thing i don't like about them is their salsa is way too hot, and they don't serve cheese with their fajitas, you have to order it seperately, lol. i had the chimichanga with rice and beans and yummo. put me into a food coma, cuz when we got home, connor and i enjoyed a nice 2 hr long nap :)

look forward to spending time with family and friends this weekend. connor's birthday party on saturday, and i can't wait. its gonna be loads of fun.
