Hello? Anyone there?

When people knock on (visit) my blog, they see that no one has been home for a long time. I apologize for that but things have been pretty busy around Alpine, America.

I was going to blog shortly after my last blog that my mother and I ran a 5k race in the Marathon to Marathon in October. We didn't do to bad actually, for our first race in who knows how long. You see, I used to run cross country in high school and since having a baby, I haven't even thought about running. I really enjoyed it and I think we are going to try and go to some more.

(K and I after the race)

K was even in the race. My aunt and uncle took turns pushing him. Oh, and I forgot to mention I won 1st place in age group! Out of 7! Ha!

We also went to our Women's Ranch Rodeo finals in Amarillo. We placed 12th out of 16 teams... so... it wasn't that good but I think we all had fun. Next year we may have to change a few things. Here are some pictures.

 Heel em!

OK the next big thing that has happened was Halloween. Growing up our parents always let us dress up to an extent and took us into town to trick-or-treat. So, I couldn't help myself but dress K up as well!

(Isn't he cute!)

K was supposed to be thing 1 1/2 from Dr. Suess's The Cat in The Hat. T and I were going to dress up with him but we ended up not doing it. It would have been fun though. We took him around to some of the house's in my grandparents neighborhood and he had a blast!

Umm that's about it that I can think of right now... Oh Wait! My hubby just accepted a job that we have been hoping and praying for! He is know offically a camp man on the 06 ranch of Alpine, TX! We are so fortunate and thankful for this turn of events.

Well, hope ya'll have a wonderful thanksgiving and we will see ya next time. I will be here the next time ya come a knockin' :)
