We Finally Got Snow!

Well the San Luis Valley finally got some snow. This snow storm really dropped the snow! We haven't seen this kind of snow in a really long time and it was much needed. It is the perfect snow for building snowmen and having snow ball wars!! Of course, Carter had to go out and play in it this morning with Daddy!

But he got cold and had to come warm up by the fire with Mommy!!

Mark is out trying to build Carter a hill of snow with all the snow from our drive way so he can sled down it. If it all works out, we will send pictures of playing in the snow. Hopefully the wind will quit blowing so we can go out and play in it! More to come!

Up to date news!

Hi There!
This last week has been a crazy one for us. I just wanted to say that Carter has learned a new trick! He can do a somersault!! It is so cute! If you can get him to put his tractor down long enough he will do a couple in a row!

Other than that everything is about the same. Nothing too exciting so I guess I will leave it at this for now! Hope all is well with everyone!

Carter's First Snowman!

This is a picture of Carter's first snowman. We got up early one morning after Halloween and it was snowing. So I bundled Carter and I up and we headed outside and 6:00 in the morning to play in the snow. By 7:30 This is what we ended up with. I know it is a little late to post it, but I wanted to share it with all of you! I had so much fun watching him play in the snow and it is a memory I will always treasure!

I'm Terrible with this!

So I started this blog back in Septemeber I believe, and now it is mid January. I really should do better with this! Things have been really crazy here. Getting my photography business up and going took a major portion of my time. Then there is always the school thing lingering about!

Just to get everyone up to date, we had a wonderful Christmas. Carter was completely spoiled of course! Did you expect anything less? Unfortunately, Carter had the flu over Christmas. So Christmas Eve was spent cleaning up ickey stuff. Poor Carter was sick all day on Christmas as well. He finally started feeling better the day after Christmas. But nevertheless he was still extremely excited over all the trucks he got! His favorite thing in the world!

We were hoping that 2010 would start off and be better than 2009, but it didn't. 2009 was filled with tragedy and sickness and 2010 started off the same way with Grandma Helen's passing. However, I seem to be doing much better health wise. I'm hoping that we are nearing an end to this whole mess!

It has been dreadfully cold here the last few weeks and then the last two days have really warmed up. There is snow on the way! I love the snow and I'm hoping there is snow on the ground when my tulips come up. I absolutly love tulips against the white backdrop! I am looking forward to the long warm summer days of watching Carter play in the yard. We had a lot of fun last summer!

Well that's all for now. I'm going to try and do better at this! (We'll see!)
