Yu-u-u-u-mmy!



This tea is soooo good! I absolutely love it! I've been in the Christmasy mood for quite some time now- way before Halloween, and our tree would be up if it weren't for our impending move. I just love this time of year! We're wanting to get snowed in at the ranch to be able to play in the snow (that has yet to come). But before we rush into Christmas, we have THANKSGIVING! Not as fun to decorate...but still fun. We're especially excited because we're going to visit Jorge's brother and his family in Dallas. So, we're wishing everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving! Eat lots of turkey!

We're Alive




Just a quick note to let everyone know we're alive! I know it's the middle of November, and I'm a slacker for not posting Halloween pictures earlier- sorry. This was a few days before Halloween, Reuben was attached to his costume. My computer is still hating, so I can't put pictures up....more to come later. Jace was a bear, and they both were super cute (in my biased opinion). We took the boys to the Halloween NICU reunion at Providence Hospital- and caught up with some friends, nurses, etc. It was fun. Then our ward had the kids go on a hay ride trick-or-treating, ending up at an outdoor little party with chili, desserts, and hot chocolate. I've never been a huge fan of Halloween, but it was fun to dress the kids up and we do benefit from them not being able to eat all the candy- although, trust me- Reuben is STILL trying. We're in the middle of flipping a house, and I must admit- it's more relaxing to sit and watch it on tv from start to finish in 30 minutes. Jorge and I love this, but we have so many good ideas (good and humble) that it takes us a long time to reach our final decision. We had the round up this last weekend....testing cows and bulls- I've known how it's done but have never been there for it....interesting. That's all I have to say. Poor Reuben was held hostage because I didn't want him in the corrals with Jorge- call me paranoid but he's still alive so I'm ok with being paranoid. Lots of pregnant cows, so it was a good weekend. Jace is rolling around like crazy, and will soon have his 1st tooth (I know I've been saying that for 3 months, this time I think it's for real! we'll see!) Reuben was roping his tricycle, and Jace was asleep and now they're both awake and hungry so I need to go. Jorge's out selling cattle to bring home the bacon, or beef- as the case may be. This Thanksgiving season I'm soooo thankful for my little family- I have the best 3 boys ever!
