it's really happening!

For those of you that haven't heard, they started building our house. Check it out. We'll post every step of the way. First picture is the beginning foundation.

We met with the superintendent yesterday to go over the plans and our upgrades. We may even get to move in just before Christmas. Time will tell...

Hello Again!

Well, if you haven't noticed, it's been a while. That's right, school started. And on top of that I am now in charge of After-school Care this year, which is in my classroom Monday-Thursday until 6:00 and Friday until 5:15.

We did manage to get away for Labor Day weekend. We spent some time in Angel Fire and Chama. It was so peaceful and relaxing.


We went horseback riding. The first time, it was about to storm, so we didn't go. But, they let Alejandro ride around the corral. He was so thrilled to be on a horsie.


We went on an hour and a half ride. My horse had an attitude and bad gas. Maybe that explains the attitude. Marcelo and Alejandro's horse was really calm. The forest in this area of New Mexico is really beautiful.



In Chama, there was so much wildlife in the area around our friend's cabin. Marcelo even fed some deer carrots out of his hand!
