Merry Christmas {{First Name|Las Cruces}},

Merry Christmas from Live Love Las Cruces. We wish you and your family a warm and joyful day filled with peace and happiness. We are actually at Elephant Butte Lake State Park for the Holidays with family and I can confirm there is NO SNOW 🙂 and not missing it. But the Holiday spirit is alive and well. How about you, are you missing the snow?

Sponsored by NM Vintage Wines
NM Vintage is the place to be six days a week (would be seven but we need a day of recovery ourselves . . . you get it.)
We uniquely feature wines from around New Mexico as well as our own label, Cowbelle Wines, NM craft beers, and curated NM spirits such as whiskeys, vodkas, y más.
Our New Mexico culinary delights make for an amazing taste companion. The best part? We are known for the biggest-little stage in New Mexico. Live music feeds our souls. #joinus #nmvintagewines
