We're Here!

Beautiful mountain views

Rio doing what he does best!

Tux doing what he does best!

Best friends!

Alright, so I am attempting to post via email off of my crackberry since we are headed into civilization today! We rolled in on Saturday afternoon to an outside temperature of 53! It was 98 at home when we left ~ talk about a refreshing change! The scenery here is absolutely gorgeous! The weather is phenomenal ~ warm by mid-morning, but as soon as the sun drops behind the mountains the temperature goes with it! Hunter had a terrible bike wreck yesterday ~ the house is at the top of a hill with a gravel road and he was headed down it when he hit a big rock and became airborne! He only quit flying through the air when he crashed into the fence! Thank god he had his helmet on because you should see the scratches on it! He has a terrible case of road rash and lots of black and purple bruises to go along with it! Fortunately he quit crying pretty quick and after he was bandgaged up he got back on his bike and peddled away! Gotta love the lack of drama with little boys ~ hell, Maisie would still be crying! We are definitely out in the middle of nowhere ~ there is satellite TV ~ thank you Jesus! Not as many channels as we have at home, but there is at least Nick and Disney! The ranch manager informed us there are bears on the property ~ oh goody! No leaving food out and all trash must be double bagged! There has also been a mountain lion sighting recently ~ again, oh goody! Maisie is the perfect size appetizer for either of those wild beasts so we have to be careful about letting the kids out without supervision ~ fortunately you have lots of pretty scenery to take in while you're out on bear duty! Tux and Rio are in hog heaven out in the pasture ~ they wouldn't come to us the first day I think from sheer fear that we were going to put them back in the trailer! By last night though they were happy to see us and gladly came in for dinner! I'll post some pictures when I make it in somewhere with Internet access!
