Catching up!

Well...we have been pretty busy. August is going to be a little crazy.

Last weekend we traveled to Sedan or to the ranch. We picked up some rock for making flowerbeds and a fire pit. It is going to be really cool. We hope to have at least the flower beds built this coming weekend. I will take some pictures once we have things built! Arturo also butchered a lamb while we where there so we now have lamb. Man that is good stuff...I would have never guessed I would every crave a lamb chop, but I do and it it is so good with a glass of red wine!

Next week we are leaving for New Mexico to see Juana...I am pretty excited. Three days off and getting to enjoy to great NM air! Also we will get to spend some time with our niece and nephew. It is going to be a great trip!


The squirrels have discovered our garden. They have eaten all of Arturo's corn. The little varmints! Arturo has gotten a Beebe Gun to try to thin them out, but he has not gotten a single one! :)




I am still really enjoying knitting. Here a few of my finished projects and my first bit of stash yarn.

Knitting ~ Headband from my beginners class


My Hat did not turn out quite right...but it still is pretty cute on! (also from the class)



My Cable Scarf! It is coming along great!







My first bit of stash yarn. I picked this up a Wildflower Yarns and Knitwear on a great sale. I am not for sure what I am going to make with it just yet, but that is what makes it stash!



Running...I am still trying to get in shape! I have shine splints though, so I have had to back off and slow down on my program. I have decided that I am going to run a half marathon in the year 2009 it my be this time next year but I am going to do it!

Well that is about it for now.

Hope you all have a great week!
