We are still around

Hope everyone is doing well. It has been awhile since the last post (9 mo.) I have just chosen to do other things besides update the blog. Don't forget to click the photo links on the right.
Early in the year, we spent a few days at Tio Norio and Aunt Delly's ranch. Raeyana and Julian got to ride a Mustang (See for yourself). It is always a relaxing visit, camp style cooking and peaceful isolation. Of course we always choose the cool time of the year to visit south texas.
April was rather busy with all the birthdays (Amanda, mine, and Let's) and Easter. Not to mention that I now have one of the sweetest gigs. I became a golf course marshall in April. So now I play golf at least 4 times a week and work half a day on Fridays, Not everyone loves it :)
Summer was great. Julian graduated from pre Kinder and Aaron, Ryan, McKenna and Kara moved back to Granbury, TEXAS. So we get to see McKenna and Kara more often and Aaron and Ryan too. It has been a welcomed change. To handle the 100 degree temps we broke out the popsicles, set up the pool, and went fishing.
Summer came to an end with Julian starting Kinder. He says that there is not much play time and too much work. HELLO.
Raeyana turned 3 on September 3. The party had a Princess theme. Ryan and Amanda made this Awesome Castle Cake. Not only was it aesthetic but it was quite delectable. Needless to say it was Pretty Good.
That is all for now. I will only add that it is no use complaining about the weather it will change soon and we won't like it then either.
