Sick

This was a one armed Cowboy on top of a mule that was on the trailer with 2 buffalo! :) Really fun to watch! This is Jacob at the petting zoo in his cowboy hat! :) He loved the animals and his hat... He now has a pair of black and red cowboy boots to match!


Well, it seems that Jacob and I have come down with some horrible cold!!! His is coughing and running nose, mine is just head cold! Thankfully we are doing much better today after a long needed nap for both of us. During this time we have been staying at our house in Johnstown, which we have hopefully rented out!!! The new renters want to move in on the 1st, and that gives us one week from tomorrow to get everything packed up and out of here, and let Nancy (our wonderful neighbor and property manager) in to clean from head to toe!!! We have watched way too many movies, although I have drawn a line on how many times I have to watch Auto B Good before I get an adult movie in! :) We have loved Dr. Seuss, Veggie Tales, Surf's Up, and Happy Feet. I watched Julie and Julia today and was very inspired to try and cook some French food... well once we get into a house and unpacked!




Greg has fallen in love with the houses back east. And has I think, found us a home! We just have to get the application in and hopefully move forth from there. I think we are all getting tired of being apart!!! It will be so wonderful to get into a house again and have a routine and all of our things out of boxes! (I am just a little excited if you can't tell!!!)




Jacob is loving his time with his Mamas and Papas. He is being stubborn about listening, and I think part of it is that Daddy is gone, and well of course he doesnt' feel good, but still no excuses allowed here!




I have started to quilt!! Ok, well I have cut out a few pieces for a quilt, but nonetheless, I have all the materials for it, and have learned the basics for now... I still need to get a few supplies from Joann's (rulers, walking foot, ect...) But have learned that I have a wonderful sewing machine (Thank you so much Great Grandma!!!) and that it will be perfect for quilting! I spent a day with my mother-in-law and her good friend Ronalda Kraft (who is an AMAZING quilter) and made a really really really cute bag/purse!!! I still have two buttons to sew on, but other than that it is done!! Pictures to come later.




We enjoyed a day at the Denver Stock Show with Uncle Jim, Grandma and Grandpa Lockwood and even ran into Matt and Tammy Kaufman and the twins! Which was an amazing treat for Jacob since he has missed Matt very much!
