Back to BootCamp
Fall is here and I am getting back into our routines since school started. Our weekly practices now include 2 hours Basketball. Homework luckily hasn't been so bad but heard 4th and 5th grade is a whole new ballgame. Our dinners have been on the fly lately so eating healthy is not working out for me. I try to get my good healthy meal in for lunch and totally bomb with my dinner choice (Sonic and Taco Villa).
I got a bright idea that I would get back to my BootCamp routine this week as we have mostly been doing the 5k workout the past few months. Cardio is great but the muscle and fitness challenge was missed, WELL UNTIL THIS MORNING.
My Morning Recap: I woke up this morning with a little soreness in some muscles I haven’t used in a while.
Then, reality hits, I raise to get out of bed and have a flashback of SUMO something I hope to never see again….
It hurts to squat to the sitting position, once I have finally made it to my chair,
I find “relief” and hope I don’t have to get up anytime soon…

Twenty - Four
He kept showing me how he pulls on her leash to "stop her" and telling me that I was not doing it correctly. I asked him how old he was to be bossing me around? After he told me he was "Four" I let him know that was too little in the britches to be bossy. He said well, how old are you, TWENTY-FOUR? I smiled and had to kiss him.....

New Ride
By the way, Insurance didn't total my Tundra. Thanks to Kameron I was able to sale it as is and take the insurance money after paying it off and get in a 2010 for 1/2 the cost. Thanks Kameron! I'll post pics on FB later!

New Crockpot Recipe
I also hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Weekend. Jeff and I were both off on Friday and he was busy helping a friend move and his mom put up a new Basketball goal! It was a hit with the kids...we played "horse" about 3 times! Grammy has game too and Brooke loved every minute of it!
With a fun and busy weekend, this recipe was easy & delicious!
Crockpot Mexican Chicken Tacos
1 can Mexi Corn, drained
1 can regular Corn, drained
1 can Black Beans, drained and rinsed
Jar of your favorite Salsa (I used Picante Thick & Chunky)
4 to 5 Frozen Chicken Breast
Cream Cheese
Rosa's Fresh Flour Tortillas
Take Frozen Chicken Breast from freezer to Crockpot (do not thaw)
Add canned (drained) ingredients and stir. Cover with lid and cook on High for 4 to 5hours until chicken is cooked. Add Cream Cheese and cook for another 10 minutes until melted. The chicken will be very tender so you can take a fork and shred it while stirring the cream cheese.
Serve with tortillas, cheese, guacamole and fresh Cilantro.

Bushland Bound
We just put a contract on 10 acres in Bushland off Quail Springs in Outpost Ranches. We are excited to be one of 4 homes on this street that are 10 acres each and our neighbor to the south has a barn and horses too. We are close to the end of the cul-de-sac, which will be great for kids riding their bikes...not that I expect much of that from Brooke.
Diamond, Henry & Paizley "Blaze" will be excited to see some land and get away from "stall" life at Range Riders. It's been a blessing to have that as an option this winter but they are spoiled rotten and feeling way too FRISKY! We almost had a "HENRY" Rodeo when he decided to dang near jump the fence because he thought I was leaving him in the round pen! Spoiled I tell you, Henry is just a pet and if you ever want to get rid of apples, come on out and watch him eat one in a single bite!

What a week!
Here's a picture of the land we're hoping to get! It's 4 miles South of Canyon by the New High School off the Old Buffalo Lake Road (FM 283). It's paved and the other road that leads to the Junior High is also paved road so we really like the area. The land is 1/4 mile off FM 283 and on a caliche road (like sand/rock based) and just glad it's not MUD!
A few Mesquite Trees...and already fenced!
This weekend will be focused on the house plans and land and playtime next weekend! Lots of fun birthdays next weekend! My beautiful nephew Cash will be turning 2 and the little Campbell "McAdorable" is turning ONE!

"Love is in the Air. My Heart, My Story" Contest by Amarillo National Bank!
What a great family that's held ANB together all these 100 so years. They put a HUGE HEART in the center of downtown last year and took family pictures for people last Valentine's Day. This year, they are having a contest...so creative! Doubt I make it but it got me thinking...what's my Love Story… I guess you can say it was more of a Love Connection!
My mother divorced after 10 or so years of marriage to Jim (2 of those years they were separated) we moved to Amarillo my senior year. My cousin, Jeremy, introduced me to Jeff one night! I never had a steady boyfriend before and was so timid at first…we became friends that fell in love and after 4 years of dating, we became one! My Nanny would always joke w/ me because if we were ever in a room together we had to be touching….hands, feet or I’d be sitting in his lap…..it was just comfortable being around him.
What I loved most about our connection is we were both ready to be in love and it was forever with us. We both grew up without our Dads (his dad passed away from Cancer when he was 3) and we were both raised by our Mom’s …it’s because of our Mom’s…that we are both in love today. The pastor that married us was the same man that married his Mom & Dad…35 years ago. His name was Strauss and later married his brother. That’s a connection that is deep inside us.
Love to us is about family, working hard, laughing and having fun and it’s forever!
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! What's your love story?
