Sunday Morning Fun

This morning I went out with Arturo to doctor a couple of horses and feed hay. Well, I did not doctor or feed hay. I did a little shooting! Below are few images I took. Check them out and let me know what you think!

Arturo brought me these Kansas Sunflowers for completing the 20.7 miles! I am a lucky girl!

Oh ...and I also took the picture for our new blog heading this morning! :)

Have a great week everyone!

A Lazy Satruday Afternoon

After my long, long run (20.72 miles, thank you very much) I have not done much this beautiful Saturday. Arturo and I went to our favorite breakfast spot, The Chef, which if you are in Manhattan you must go to The Chef. Great food and great service! After breakfast we did our grocery shopping for the week. Then after that I have been on the couch all afternoon!

I decided to play in Photoshop this afternoon. I took the below pictures last night and edited them with the Pioneer Women's Actions. This is my vintage Arctic Boy water cooler that Miguel rescued for me. I absolutely love it, but not found a great home for it just yet!

See what you think!

Have a mentioned I LOVE Photoshop!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Random Friday

Good Friday Morning yall!

It has been a while since I last posted...sorry about that. Life has been crazy! Well not really crazy, I just have been doing a lot of running and a lot of research on a crazy little idea, which I will share soon!

The running is going good! I ran 17.7 miles last Saturday and then went and got a massage. How nice that was! This week I ran four miles on Tuesday, eight on Wednesday and five yesterday. Today is a day of rest, to prepare for my 19 mile run tomorrow. I have really enjoyed the training process, to look back and think that this time last year it was a milestone for me to run four miles! I am ready for the marathon to get here, I am getting a little nervous about the whole ordeal and I am still six weeks out and still have two really long runs ahead of me. I can do it though...I have come this far and I will finish! :0)

Arturo started school this week. He is taking a couple of Statics classes this fall and a seminar. He only has class Tuesday and Thursday. He then gets to to go to the Cow/Calf Unit and work or play "cowboy" Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I am really thinking about taking a day and playing "cowgirl" with him some time this Fall. I think that would be fun!

Well...I better run! Lots of work to do this Friday morning! Have a great weekend everyone!

Random image of a rock from the ranch. I thought it was cool with all the imprints in it!

Discovered Actions

I discovered Actions in Photoshop this weekend....How cool are they?

Here is a picture I took this summer at the ranch...this is straight out of the camera.

And this is the same picture, but with the Pioneer Women's Vintage Action run on it! I LOVE IT!

Have a great evening everyone!

Pumpkins

Good Sunday afternoon everyone!

This weekend has been GREAT!

Yesterday I ran 16 miles! Can you believe that...16 miles! It wore me out, so we did a little grocery shopping and then just rested the rest of the day! Arturo cooked me a wonderful steak with blue cheese butter, scalloped potatoes, and asparagus. It was so good, a great birthday dinner! For desert, it was homemade chocolate cupcakes! What a lucky birthday girl I was!

Today we worked in the garden a little and just cleaned things up since we have been gone for three weekends straight!

Here are a couple pictures of my pumpkins in the front. They are taking over the front yard!!!

I have a total of four pumpkins, but they all look about the same!

Have a great week everyone!
