Wow time goes by so fast!!


Wanted to give a decent breakdown of August of last year till now.

August - We finally adopted Rafa and he is very much a huge part of our family now, he gets to go hiking with Janson on the weekends and play with Pablo during the days.

September - Janson started at the U for another semester, he is not sure when it will ever end.
Canyoneering season is upon us now and Janson is planning way more trips than he has time for.

October - Pretty boring month for us, more canyoneering, halloween was pretty funny because we werent sure how many people were going to be brave enough to come down our private drive for some candy, we had one family was hispanic and about 14 kids, it was fun though.

We also travelled down to texas because one of Janson's convert families had a little girl that had been bugging him to come down and baptize her, he waited for over a year for them to get everything figured out and then we decided to head on down, talk about the longest drive of my life. We brought the dogs with us and they did surprisingly well, just chilled out and tried to run away when we let them out to relive themselves at rest stops. we made it down there and it was so much fun to see Janson in his mexican element, we had alot of fun visiting fa
milies and the family that we went down there for had a litt
le boy about 3 years old that for some reason fell in love with me, (maybe because i am white) but anyways he would have conversations with me in spanish and i had no idea what he was saying so i would just nod my head and laugh and smile when i thought i should. by the end of our trip he would kiss my arm and finally got the courage to kiss me on the cheek. it was a long drive home and we both swear to never do it again.

November - December - Nothing too exciting these months except for Christmas and new years of course.

January - Janson started into tax season and i never get to se
e him which is fun, we have both set goals to lose weight and have started a contest within the family to see who can
lose the most.

February - not much has happened for february except this past weekend we went to a benefit dinner for Ching Animal Sanctuary, it was an all vegan dinner with 5 courses, it was pretty good but the tango dancing live show was the best part, just an older couple in front of a small group bumping and grinding on the dance floor, you had to be there i guess.

i have been volunteering at the shelter more often now and love working with the play groups and adoptable dogs.
