Hey everyone,    have you missed me??

Yes,  I am around still.     I have not been online hardly at all,   and I have to say that it has felt nice!   Nice to not have the internet dominate my life.     Nice to be able to spend more time outdoors and with the family.    Nice to be able to spend more time indoors with the kids and really enjoy myself without having that need of being online.

How have you all been doing?     Good here.     Settling in quite nicely in our new place and loving it more and more each day.     There is nothing more wonderful than stepping out onto the balcony and looking at the Mountains,   watching the clouds,   the sunsets and don’t get me started on the fantastic hot air balloons we see regularly.      Can you say infatuation?      What a life!!!

This weekend will be a fun one yet again for us.    The weather here is going to be cooler,   a few chances of some rain,   but nothing severe at all.     It rains a little bit here and it is a big deal.    Where I came from,  it was nothing to get a good 30+ inches of rain in 1 years time.         My 2 girls are turning a year older this weekend.     It will be different celebrating their Bday with no family here,   but they are just a phone call away.    We took them shopping tonight and they bought themselves a very nice gift w/ money that Nana sent them.

All 3 are adapting well to school and the surroundings here.     Kids are so simple when you think about it.    As long as Mommy and Daddy are around them,   they have no problems making changes.     These weeks sure have flown by!    Monday quickly becomes Tuesday and before you know it,   it’s Friday night and then Monday morning again.     That must be a life thing.     Maybe it is that way the older we get.     Time goes so fast!

Time to join in on the card game that is going on.     I am still here,   and will TRY my hardest to make more of an effort to blog more.     Maybe not every day,  but a couple times a week sounds good to me.

Love ya all!!!

XOXOXOXO

Wow,   our time here is sure flying by really fast.     It has been almost 3 weeks that we have been in our new home.    Time sure does fly by,  doesn’t it?

How have you all been?    Keeping yourselves busy I hope.      Definitely been doing so on my end.     Everyday is a busy day.    I did manage to fall asleep today on my comfy bed.     Took a good 1 hour snooze.      Our weekend was very nice and fun.    We did some sight seeing,  walking and more sight seeing.    It is so nice to know that we have all of this natural beauty all around us on a daily basis.    I definitely do not see us getting bored here at all.     There is so much to do and so many things yet to discover.     I feel truly blessed to be here,  and to have such a wonderful house to come home to as well.

The kids are adjusting to their schools just fine.    I am still getting used to my Daughters school,   as it is very large,   but I am sure I will get used to it soon.    So many little changes that a person has to make when they move somewhere totally different.     But for us,  it has been a very nice change.    One we definitely will never take for granted.

Tomorrow is Tuesday already.     The weather will be very pleasant once again,   and I am sure I will find plenty of things to do around here to keep myself busy.     We are getting a new faucet and sink in our kitchen,   so I am hoping that will be fully done by tomorrow.     I didn’t enjoy having to wash all our dishes in the upstairs bathroom sink for sure!    But once the new sink/faucet is in,   it will be incredibly nice!

Time to go relax and enjoy the evening………..You all have a wonderful day tomorrow!!!

Many kisses!!

Happy Easter Sunday everyone!

I hope you had a glorious day.     We had a very nice day,  and in fact,  I did not want the Sun to set at all.    We had a very nice breakfast this morning,   then the kids searched for their Easter baskets.     After that we headed out to a very nice trail and did some sight seeing.     Then we headed to the downtown area and I hid several Easter eggs for the kids to find.    They made out like bandits!    It was fun for them.    Definitely took plenty of pictures for the family to enjoy.

We ended up having a very nice late lunch/dinner at an authentic Mexican restaurant.    So yummmmmy!!

After we got home from all of that,   we didn’t want to spend much time inside,  so we were outside pretty much the rest of the evening.     The kids have had their baths,  and I took myself a very nice bubble bath too.    Now I am so relaxed that I could easily fall asleep.

Tomorrow is my Husbands first day on his job.    That means that for a while,   I will have the whole house to myself.     Oh my!    That is going to be strange,  but I am sure it will feel nice.   I still have plenty of piddly things to do around here,  so the time will fly.   I am hoping to find myself a part time job somewhere.    Maybe work a couple of nights a week,  meet some new people,  maybe even a friend or two along the way.   That would be a nice change for me as well.      Soon the kids will be out of School for the Summer,   so I am going to enjoy my quiet time while it is here.

Time to head to my Master Suite and relax the rest of the evening……….Yes,  it is truly what I call my “Master Retreat”.    It is sooooooooo nice to have a large and in charge bedroom,  bathroom and closet.     Goodness knows I have the clothes to fill it!

Kisses and warm hugs to you all!!

Happy April Fools Day!!!

I sure have been very busy still getting the house all spruced up.    It has been fun,  but lots of work!   It is all turning out really nicely though.     I can’t believe we have been here for over a week already.    The time sure does fly by.

This weekend will be fun for us.    On Easter Sunday we are taking the kids to an amazing outdoor place and will have a very fun Easter egg hunt for them.    They will get a big kick out of that.   What a great event for some fantastic pictures!    Definitely will be a day to remember.

It is chilly here tonight.    The winds are still strong and the air temperature is cool for this time of year.    Definitely great snuggling weather tonight.     I was on the balcony for a few minutes,   but got too chilled,  so I am came inside.    In a couple of days,  it will be very warm again,  so this cool down is short-lived.

How you all been doing?    Work going well and home life good for you?    The kids are adapting very well here.    I didn’t suspect there would be any major problems,   just little things here and there,  but nothing out of the ordinary.     School for them is going good as well.     This move for us was very smooth.    Stressful at times,  of course,  but definitely nothing bad took place.

I am very tired tonight.    This cool weather and my busy day has left me with not much energy tonight,  so I am going to go snuggle in my bed,  watch the news and soon be in lala land……….

Kisses everyone!!

TGIF tomorrow……..YEAH!!!
