Well, I haven't blogged much lately because there hasn't been much going on AND I AM SOOOO EXCITED ABOUT THAT!!!!
We have gone so much lately that I am so glad to have the time home now. I have been working on my Private Quarters and I still have a long way to go. I have several parties next month so I am hoping it will definitely start to pick up. I just have to get the word out and that's hard when I don't get out much myself! If I do it's out of town or to geo-cache.
That's about it. I am just tired and had a long day at satellite. Tomorrow will be a rough one also but there's nothing we can do about it. It's been nice around there lately so I don't mind!
Here's to NOT HAVING TO GO ANYWHERE THIS WEEKEND!!!!

Finally
Finally, a weekend at home.........nowhere to go, nothing major to do. What a nice weekend!
Friday night we drove around and visited friends and came home and enjoyed a DVD on the "big screen" (projector). Saturday we got up when we wanted to (yay!) which was 10 for me. Then I realized I better book it and get to Jami's bridal shower. That was a great time. Came home, relaxed a bit and then got ready to celebrate our first year in Hays with a cookout. We had a great time with great friends and played some games. We also got Casey to sing on Rock Band which totally shocked me! Rick and Renee stayed the latest and I definitely miss hanging with them as much as we used to! Life has been so busy lately we are just thankful to have all these great friends in such a great place. I get reconnected with more of them every week that we are here. Plus, we make great new friends too!
Today is Sunday, which means FOOTBALL!!!! For me, that means I get to work on what I want or just sit here and relax. I know what I SHOULD do but I have been doing what I should for the last two months. I'm ready for some relaxation....uh, I mean FOOTBALL!

A Whole Year
Today has been a 365 days since we moved to Hays. Need I say more? Yeah, today is a great day!
Here's those pics I promised! Not as many as I'd like but it takes a while to upload!
Just found our 300th geocache. It was a tough climb!
Rusty at Goose Lake in New Mexico. Awesome view.
Also, the Jeep pic again! I love this! Definitely want one!!
Used the fire pit each night. Now I know I will use mine after two years of not doing so! Geesh!
On our way to the top of Capulin National Volcano. It was pretty awesome!
The Winsett boys and their girls! And the awesome Eli!
Me and cousin Kate. LOVE her!!! Trying out the head massager and scarves I sell!
Winsett ladies with Eli........Tara, Charlotte, Kate, Jeannie, and Dawn. And I'm NOT pregnant. lol
Winsett men.......Rob, Randy, Eli, Rusty and Gene
And Rusty with his mother, Eli, and Randy. First time they have all been together in about 8 years. Great day I am sure!
So many more but you can only put so many pictures before other people get sick of seeing them!

Thoughts For The Day
Just because they make it in your size doesn't mean you should wear it.
Babies really are gifts from God but that doesn't mean you have to make them LOOK like a present.
I vow to only worry about myself at work, but when my work is effected by others who do I worry about?
Friends come in all shapes, sizes, and personalities.
Life is what YOU make of it, no one else.
Never judge someone based on their appearance or material possessions.
You are a speck of dust in this universe so control that ego. We all get out of hand on occasion.
The honeymoon is over only when YOU let it be. Don't envy others, rekindle your own.
Are you ready for some football??
Ciao!

Whoa! Long Time!
So, this is still going to be short even though I need to do a lot of catching up!
On the 27th of August Rusty and I went to Oklahoma to see Randy, Dawn, Eli, Uncle Rob, Charlotte, Kate, Gene, Jeannie, Dad and Les. Ugh..............that was a lot of running around and trying to please, which seemed impossible. Anyway, we also held the Fantasy Football Draft that weekend. We had a great time seeing Eli and he is getting so big! I can't believe it! He is such a great baby. Only cried twice that I know of and that was in 4 days that we were there! He went to the pool house a little too early each night for Rusty and I (8:45), especially since we have no idea when we will get to see him again. I know Rusty loved having him sleep on his chest in the recliner! I have some great pictures to post and I can't believe the look on Rusty's face as he held Eli. So, so happy to be there with him.
Dad and Les had a cake for me and I spent Friday night with them. We never stay there when we go down and I am sure they would love for us to. I didn't like not being with my husband but you do what you gotta do. We probably won't be making it back down for a long time so we tried to get good visiting in! I took lots of cute pics of Eli and lots of Winsett Family pics. I will do a post of just pics later this week.
Today we are celebrating our seventh anniversary. I wasn't planning on doing anything for our anniversary since we purchased a home this summer but a great deal came up. I planned it all and Rusty had no idea where we were going. We went to Red River, New Mexico and it is beautiful! Another surprise was that we met our good friends from Oklahoma there (Allen and Tammy)! We had so much fun and thanks to them we got to rent a house for $50 bucks a night!! We also rented a Jeep for the day and went "jeeping". Allen made that word up for us.
We had such a good time and enjoyed using the fire pit on the front balcony and roasting marshmallows. *Note to self: start using your damn fire pit you have had for two years!! Rusty was so surprised when the people we were meeting with to pay for the house and get the key were Allen and Tammy. I can't believe I pulled it all off. On the trip we also found our 300th geo-cache!! It was a great one that was difficult and I am happy to report that I am the one who found it. We just started geo-caching last November so 300 in less than a year is awesome! Allen and Tammy also enjoyed finding a couple in New Mexico. Rusty and I hit three different states in one weekend......Kansas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. Could have done four since we went through Colorado but were just ready to get home. If we were really anal about it we could have gotten five states and ran into Texas too! LOL
Here's a pic near where our 300th geo-cache was located. You can't tell but this was a heckuva hike up there!
Regardless, we are home and glad to be. I will post more pictures later!
Here's to great friends, great vacations, and seven years of great, great marriage! It is so nice to have been married for that long already and to feel like our lives together have just truly begun.
