More Progress. . .




Gosh, we worked hard all weekend!!! It was a gorgeous sunny day on Saturday. Sunday was windy and cold. We worked hard both days and finished decking the deck. Next step is skirting the deck, adding stairs, benches and planters and then the fire pit! Whew! Here is an updated picture from this morning. Oh yea, it's snowing! Springtime in Colorado - gotta love it!
What a difference an hour makes.

Crystal Fire in Larimer County


After an absolutely gorgeous day in Fort Collins, the wind picked up and late in the evening a forest fire broke out in the foothills west of Fort Collins. The site from town was amazing.

Unfortunately, we heard news today that Clay's good friend and co-worker, Drew Santillanez and his family were evacuated from their home and returned to total devastation. Nothing was left.

They said they had less than 10 minutes to grab all of their pets and a few items of clothing and get out of the area. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

This link will take you to a 9 news video with Drew's daughter, Desa. She's a brave girl who loves her horses. xo

Spring Football Scrimmage!!


What a gorgeous day today in Colorado!!! 79 degrees and sunny! Evan played some ball this afternoon and it couldn't have been a better day!! Preston Pumas scrimmaged the Kinard Mustangs at the Loveland Sports Park. Evan played both offense and defense and Clay and I were IMPRESSED!!! There was one play where Evan came off the line so quick and went after the QB, that Clay and I both said, "Who was that?" Wow, Evan!! All of your hard work is really paying off. Proud mama!
