More Hiking

axel loves the water.....we can not keep him out of it.

yes yes i know it seems like all we do is hike! well we have to get out and enjoy the sun until it gets too hot to go outside........sorry for all you who are still getting snowed on. we have green lawns and flowers in bloom and leaves back on the trees. this is the only time of year that it is green so i need to take it all in. we do have a guest room! you know who to call.

Chirstmas in March

well i title this blog today christmas in march, well as you can see jesson got a gun and a new gun case! i have never seen him so happy. his new gun case holds two rifles and one pistol and a lot more. i have never seen one with so many pockets. he still hasn't got to shoot his gun.....you know what i will be doing this week. but i really don't mind, the weather here is so nice right now.....i think that it was in the 70's today and all the trees are starting to grow back their leaves and the flowers are all coming out.......wow i am so glad that i live here right now. we have a guest bedroom if you need to get some sunshine! for all you still in the snow and cold i do not envy you but give me like two months and i will be saying different! well hope all is well, love and miss you all!

The Hoopes'

Hiking with the Hoopes'

i love this time of year! the hoopes' family was down to go to nascar and then stayed an extra day to play with us! it was fun...the weather was so nice so we all decided to go hiking! i can't decide who had more fun, axel or jesson! axel was diving in the water and then all the red dirt we have here was sticking to him (he had to go get a hair cut the next day).....and jesson thought that he could just climb the cliff i guess. we seriously had so much fun!
