Wordless Wednesday—–Anticipation

Shortly before we left for vacation, I decided to buy an umbrella stroller to take on the trip. Kathryn was bringing a car seat on the plane with her but no other equipment so I thought a stroller might be good. We could stroll around or just use it to sit Katelyn in at the […]

I probably would! Because I seem to save most anything; I think I have that “saving” gene, or is it called being a packrat, ouch! I have way too many things I’ve saved over the years, thinking I might use/need it one day but I am working on trying to get over it and be […]

For the few people that read my blog, you probably know that Elizabeth is the one of my children that does NOT like fish at all. Doesn’t want to eat it, look at it or talk about it……she will eat shrimp and maybe some other shellfish which I keep telling her aren’t as good for […]

David did fire away……..on the last night of our vacation there was a sort of lightning storm at dusk. It rained every evening that we were there, mostly just a short sprinkle but sometimes more. This last night we were waiting around the lodge for an ice cream party when it started lightning. David wanted […]

Hopefully this will be the last part! After all the hiking, swimming and horseback riding, it was decided we’d go whitewater rafting one day, on Thursday. I sort of wanted to go since everyone else was going but the ranch tried & tried to find another babysitter but no one was available so I stayed […]

We did several hikes while on vacation in Colorado and on that Monday afternoon after our wrangler’s breakfast hike, we took a trip with a group from the ranch up to a place called Cottonwood Pass. We drove about 25 miles away up to about 12,000 feet for snowsliding on a patch of snow still […]

A few weeks ago we finally decided what we’d do for vacation……Colorado isn’t new to us but we went to a dude ranch, a very new experience for us! It’s a christian guest ranch and was a really nice place to go; I think everyone had fun. We flew out on Saturday a week ago […]

I finished some burp cloths a week or two ago for a friend’s son whose first baby was about to be born. They turned out really cute I thought and someone had asked me to post a picture, so I don’t have to be encouraged too much to do that! I used a couple of […]

HOME! I was ready to go about 1 day before we actually left but we’re home now after being on vacation for a week! It was great and it was fun, but even better, it was COOL! Need to catch up with stuff here, email, blog stuff etc. Then I’ll try to write about our […]
