Lately…

Lately I have been in a blog “funk”, if you will.  No particular reason besides I just haven’t had the drive.  :(  So, if you are visiting us still, thank you!  I promise to try and blog at least once a week. 

Here are some recent phone pics of what we have been up to…bl Lyla and her ice cream the other day at Jason’s Deli

Tate’s new calf at the ranch.  He named him “Dos”.

Like Tate, he had a rough first few days of life, but after a visit to the vet and some antibiotics he seems to be better.

We have spent a lot of time enjoying our backyard.  Here Tate has set up a deer blind and is ready for any deer that may make it to the backyard.  :)

And Lyla got to enjoy it for the first time too.  :)

182266_10150093493221845_710181844_6501806_354688_nTate got to go down to the ranch to see a Vietnam helicopter land at the ranch.  Boots is doing a painting for the 82nd Airborne Division.  Here is the link to more pics…

   183356_10150102655336845_710181844_6587835_4290239_nEmmy started swim lessons.  She is loving them and getting better and better at her strokes and swim speed.  She will be able to start a swim team soon.

196371_10150106657571845_710181844_6618919_5525797_nFor Spring Break, Emmy got to spend some time at the ranch.  She loved riding Thunder and was so proud she can now ride without someone leading her.  :)

And last, we have been going to get Baskin Robbins (Tuesday after 5 is $1 kid cones!!) and Yogurtville a lot lately.  :)  I guess it is the spring weather.  :)
