Angel Fire Weekend - The Details

Russell and I spent July 23-July 27 in Angel Fire, New Mexico. We went down to help his mom get her computer network in her new store set up.

We got into town late Wednesday night, after a long wait at the airport in Salt Lake (because we didn't want to come home from work and then turn around and drive to Salt Lake), a flight, and a long drive up to Angel Fire from Albuquerque (about 3 hours).

The next morning we headed down to the store, which looks amazing. They had most everything moved from the old store and had the main floor set up nicely. Russell messed around on the computers while I helped with moving files and whatever else needed to be done. I made meatloaf for dinner and we played Pandemic that night with his mom and Rachel. I think that's his favorite game as of right now, but he didn't think they liked it as much as him. We were all tired though, which could have lessened the excitement.

Friday I spent most of the day inputting items into the POS system and receiving some new orders for the store. It was fairly different from the POS at Archiver's, but it was awesome to learn how to do it and see how the different programs do things. Russell did more things on the computer, that's about all I know. That night I made Chicken Deliciouses for dinner and we played Mystery Rummy with mom. Mystery Rummy is one of my favorites lately, it's simple and fun!

Saturday we helped move the last few things from the old store into the new. I helped move all the boxes into the storage room and all the furniture into the showroom downstairs. It was a lot of back and forth, but we got it done. The computers did something crazy that morning and Russell spent all day fixing them. We got home that night and just went to bed.

Sunday morning we dropped the things off at the store that we forgot were in the car, and Russell was supposed to change one little thing on the computer to make it run faster, but he decided to get fancy and broke everything....again. Luckily he fixed it in an hour this time since we had to be at the airport.

We love going down to Angel Fire and appreciate Russell's Mom flying us down (even if it is to work!) It's great to get a break from Utah and our everyday jobs and to see family.

Upcoming trips are to San Francisco for a Web Convention in August and Houston/Orlando for Christmas with my family at Disneyworld!
