Baker Family Reunion 2008

This past weekend, me and Shawn went with my parents to the Baker Family Reunion in Ruidoso, New Mexico. Baker is my dad's father's mother's maiden name (my great-grandmother, Sue Blanche Baker Shepard). It was really nice to take a vacation and to introduce Shawn to that side of my family. It was also really fun for me to see everyone- especially my niece Kynadee!! Day 1 was shopping for the girls and golf for the guys and day 2 was horse races. We also spent some time at the casino just messing around. Overall, it was really fun and I have some great pictures to prove it!
