Land

On Thursday Matt and I became land owners again. When we lived in Cheyenne we had just a little over five acres and we loved it. Since moving to Rapid City we have wanted to have land again, but just had not found the right lot for the right price. That is until a few weeks ago, Matt found some land for a very reasonable price and we really like the location and the view. We bought 20 acres with a view of the Black Hills. The only bad thing is now Matt and I cannot use the excuse of having no land to put horses the next time the girls ask us for a horse. I am sure it is still going to be awhile before we get horses because the land right now is, well just that, land. It is not fenced off and does not have a barn or any of that good stuff on it. Anyway, this is more a post for me because I had to write this down and I don't keep a written journal well at all.

Back To Reality

The Christmas break was wonderful, but now it is back to reality. That is the reality of school for the kids and myself as well as back to work. I really miss the time I was able to spend with my kids over our break. I love to stay home and play games, read books, do puzzles, and just be with family. In my opinion there is nothing better than spending all day with my three sweet children that God has blessed me with.
