Parks and recreation

Our new hobby to fill in our days is to go to park. It is kind of entertaining. I walked at a park on the west side of town. I found a dog park and let Brutus play in it and another person came with an aussie they are used for herding sheep and cattle. They're really pretty dogs. That Australian shepherd was very protective of the ball and Brutus tried to take it from him, his name was Blaze. Blaze growled and yipped at our dog and Brutus jumped about 4 feet up and away, he was spooked. It looked funny like he was set off like a firework. Our dog is like a teenager sometimes he doesn't listen to me. He got out of the fence one day but he came right to the front door. So other days he is really nice and good. I just pretend I have two kids. I get some good practice in for if I have another kid. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing really good and then something happens and I'm like oops I am terrible at this. The neighbor said our dog thinks he's king shit because Brutus sits on our patio table on the deck and looks around and he can monitor his territory easily up high. The neighbor throws treats over for him sometimes.

Idaho

Every month or 2 we go to Idaho to see our family there. It is so pretty in the Western states. I'm so happy we live in Colorado, so I have the privilege to travel very easily since we live in central U.S.A! My husband and I have started to thoroughly enjoy traveling. We just started collecting magnets for the side of our fridge from each state we visit! We've been to Idaho many times also  Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Texas, Wyoming, Iowa, South Dakota, and Nebraska together. One of my dream trips is to travel to most of the Eastern states together as a family. We would also love to travel to Michoacan, Mexico to visit his sister and her son and his grandma. We would love for our daughter to meet the great grandma she's named after!  Our trips to Idaho are always fun and we love the scenery in South Eastern Idaho and have even talked, or dreamed about buying land there. We drive out to the wolverine canyon most visits, and it is an open recreation area to camp, ride A...

Minnesota Christmas

We drove to Minnesota to be with our family for Christmas day and it was super fun to see our family and friends. I love going to my parents and taking a piping hot sauna. They have a wood fired stove. I saw 8 of my siblings, 2 of my sisters were in Monroe, Washington and 1 of my brothers was in Detroit, Michigan with their spouse's family. We also took all the dogs on some long walks. We all like dogs so whenever we get together there's about 7 dogs running around. The dirt road we walk down is really quiet and it rarely sees a car because there's only about 3 people that live on it I love Minnesota it had a piece of my heart in it. I love the snowy winters, Caribou coffee tastes delicious, and it is always nice to see my family and friends that live there. Also living in Colorado is quite the experience, I've never lived by the mountains before and it is really pretty. We've bought a house here and we're lucky that my husband's job provides for us...

Echo Mountain skiing

At the beginning of January I went to Echo Mountain to ski with my friends. It was absolutely amazing. Towards the end of the night it started to get really cold. Echo Mountain is a great place to start out and begin skiing or snowboarding. I have to say it was icy so that was a downfall and all of the runs were not open because there wasn't enough snow. But I would still go back to teach my daughter how to ski because **bonus** kids 5 and under are FREE!💃☀️⛷ I love this saying - "The mountains are calling and I must go." John Muir is credited for writing it in a letter. He was morn in 1838, he was one of America's most famous and influential "outdoor enthusiasts,"  which in his era, were called naturalists. He remains one of California's most important historical personalities and is generally still known today as one of the Father's of our National parks. He once described himself as,  a "poetico-trampo-geologist-botanist and ornithologist-n...
