Sweet November! A time to reflect on the many blessings that have been lovingly given, Birthdays to celebrate, loved ones to remember. Trips to the hills, new adventures had and lots of memories made. I am so thankful to have been given this opportunity to live, love and laugh. I am thankful for the people that have helped me become who I am, for the special people who love, support, and accept me for who I am right here, right now. I am thankful for the peace the gospel brings to my life, for the knowledge that I have gained and for all that I have yet to learn. I am thankful for my health, my huge heart and the capacity to love and serve others. I hope that you had the opportunity to reflect on the many blessings that you have in your life today and throughout your life, and that you are healthy, happy and surrounded with love.
Time for some new specs! Oh so cute!!
1st Birthday that Dad is not here. I made a blueberry pie in his honor.
Jason and I took a ride on the bike to Mount Diablo. It was so beautiful!
We could see the Antioch bridge!
Trip to Hollister. Started out pretty foggy, turned into a beautiful day!!
Britt and bears, oh my!
MJ rockin her new boots and jacket.
Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you! How cow, she's 14! Mariah had some friends over and watched movies and had a lot of fun!
I thought the jeep might be in the way so I thought I would move it. Jason saw me and decided I needed to drive through an obstacle, Mariah said, "were going to die." and then both of my beauties jumped ship leaving me solo. Can you feel the love, yeah, me neither ;o) I did great! (pics are of Jason driving, he said on the drive home, "I should have gotten pictures of you driving." oh well, fun had, memories made!)
Love it when they get along!
Sweet!
haha! Selfies with Dad!
The sign was not kidding, the hill on the other side of it was pretty steep!
Beautiful smiles!
<3 Lopez Chicks!
Such a beautiful day! Was shocked to see snow on the ground already!
I decided I wanted to make chili, so I grabbed the dried beans and all the fixings and got busy. Then I thought, can't have chili without cornbread, so I decided to make some and honey butter to go with it. I must say I was rather pleased with the results, not to bad for the first time making all three from scratch!
Activity Days! MJ got to ride a horse for the first time!
To my delight Toby cleaned the kitchen! He did such an amazing job I had to take a picture and couldn't help sharing. I am so proud of my Tobers!!
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies. Yum!
