Horses










The girls had their first horse-back lesson this past Saturday. They are being taught how to take care of horses as well as ride them. They did a great job and can't wait to see how this goes once a week! Take care, Jessie

New Mexico Fun

Roswell...spooky!

































We recently took advantage of a long weekend and drove to Ruidoso, New Mexico. We stayed in a cabin and spent the day tube sledding. Ella was way too adventurous and Bryan and I still can't believe all the runs she went down all by herself! We stopped to see Smokey the Bear or "Pokey" as Jack calls him and it was fun to see all the history our our trusted safety bear. On the way home, we couldnt resist a stop in the Roswell museum and each of the kids bought a rubber alien, how fun and odd! We had a nice family time and hope to return for maybe a camping trip when it warms up. Jessie

Jacks First Day of School




What a Big Boy! Jack is in school 2 mornings a week and he did great! When I picked him up he kept telling me he was so big now! Jessie

Rainforest Cafe
















We drove to Dallas to get our car from Turkey and enjoyed swimming at the hotel pool and the Rainforest Cafe. It was the first time for all 5 of us and it was really fun! We were seated by a gorilla that continued to make wild noises and as always Jack was concerned but only to know that the gorilla wasnt about to start walking around! Love, Jessie
