Kimber


Well I finally got the camera to talk to the computer! woo hoo! Here are some pictures of my sweet baby girl. She is 10 months old now! She is so very close to walking. But she has been for awhile. Probably the last 3 months I was just 'sure' she would be walking before the next month milestone.
Here she is with her best friend Amy. I know she is too young to have a best friend, but that's too bad, we decided for them that they get to be best friends.  They are only 3 weeks apart.

I think Kimber kinda looks like me as a little girl in this one.
Mama and baby girl.
This one is from today. She can almost get herself onto that horse. Once I set her up there she figured out rocking really fast. She really liked it.

Well I don't really have much to say, I should be making bread, so just enjoy the pictures!

Friends.

You see that cute little ...what 14? year old? Yeah, she doesn't have braces anymore. And she's not 14(but was about that in the picture), she's almost 18, and is engaged. I was just looking through old pictures and just had to post it. Time sure does fly. Hopefully we can go skydiving with her for her 18th birthday. That'll be fun.
This picture was taken the same day. Those babies are now all 3 year olds, and one is almost 4.

So yeah, not really much point to this post, just feeling like time is flying past too fast. Go kiss your babies, cause they'll be all grown up before you know it. Really.

A blog tag award type thingy.

A friend of mine from Life and Love in the Country tagged me with this.
I am supposed to list seven things about me that nobody knows. Or something like that. Well. I don't really have much stuff about me that most people don't know. I'm pretty simple. But I'll give it a try!

1. I have six, wonderful, goofy, very close knit brothers. Ranging in age from 14 to 30. (I'm number 3 in the lineup)
2. I was born in Texas and live in Texas, but I consider myself an Okie. Because I grew up in Oklahoma. Boomer Sooners!
3. I am a walking contradiction. I think we should reasonably do what we can to take care of this world God put us in, but I despise and avoid anything labeled 'green' and all the propaganda that goes with it. I eat very healthy and like my food to be natural and not full of pesticides or be genetically modified...but just like with 'green', 'organic' drives me batty. All the hype and crud. There are several more things along those lines, but I can't think of them at the moment.
4. In my family 'blonde moments' are called 'Becky moments'.
5. I have a tendency to say things where they come across as rude, when I didn't mean it that way at all. I find it better if I keep my opinions to myself most of the time for this reason.
6. I love a clean house, and WANT mine to be, but I have a hard time keeping mine clean.
7. I don't make friends easily. I am very shy around people when I first meet them, but after awhile I am obnoxious and hyper around people I know.

So there ya go. Nothing phenomenal or exciting. But it was kinda fun. Thanks Jaime!


Landscapes

I figured since I cannot upload more pictures right now, I will keep going back and posting some of my old favorites. Some I may have posted before, and some I may have never gotten around to. These are a few of my favorite landscape type pictures. I could have posted many, many more. These are all by me, I would have had an even harder time picking ones had I got into my mother in laws pictures.
Eggs. You know in case you couldn't tell. Guinea eggs no less.
A tree outside of our closest 'town'.
This is a house very near the above tree.
Sunset from somewhere on the frontside of the property.
We stopped to take this one on a foggy day one time, on our way to Menard Cowboy Church. It's been awhile since we've been there.
This is on the side of the road somewhere between Las Vegas, NM and Mora.
Looking southeastish from on our property.
Cows. On our neighbors land.
Also between Las Vegas and Mora.
Near Buffalo Gap.
Our windmill.
Looking across the river from a friend's house.
On the road somewhere between our house and Oklahoma.
Cactus blooming somewhere down the county road.
Sunset at the house.
A winter storm blowing in from the North. This is taken from my in laws side porch.
A pretty church somewhere in Ohio.
Conkles Hollow in Ohio. Those two people at the bottom are my youngest brothers. About 13 in the picture.
We are blessed with some gorgeous sunsets here.
Same sunset as above, only by the pond.
Sunset, looking south from the big house.
Sunrise from in front of our house.
Somewhere down one of the county road around here.
Sunset looking from our front porch.
I think this one is really neat. This is the sunrise. I took this picture from our kitchen window. It is not cloudy out. It was a wind/dirt storm.

My family

I can't believe I didn't find more pictures of my dad and the twins and Bill. They are just as goofy as the rest of us.
Anywho, these are pictures from ohhh I'd say 2006 and before. The camera is not wanting to speak to the computer again, so I was looking back through older pictures. I noticed all the silly pictures we seem to have, and decided to post some of the older ones. This isn't even all of them I have. Some I didn't post because they make me too sad.
This Stephen, Me , Ben, Tommy, Sam, Daniel, and my cousin Luke. We played with facepaints, then went to walmart. Really.

Tommy is wearing a coonskin hat under Stephen's cowboy hat, and wearing Stephen's glasses.
Me wearing my oldest brothers sunglasses, hat and necklace.
Tommy with a hitler mustache.
Ben, the Christmas Tree.
My oldest brother Chris.
Ben. Looking like Chris.
Captain Tommy.
I don't know. It is Stephen, but I don't know what we were doing. lol.
Ben, me and Tommy with 'deer in the headlights looks'.
Another one of our facepaint pictures.
Tommy the elk.
MMM, Chicken fried steak. I think. It's been awhile.
Guess who?
Groucho Marx....errrr...Ben
I don't know.
Ben.
Redhots anyone?
Ben, Tommy and I.
All of us. Dad, Mom, Chris, Bill, Becky, Ben, Tommy, Daniel, and Sam.

I hope you enjoyed this.....interesting....... look into the past with my family.
