Back in the Saddle....

I know it's been a while since I've posted...no excuses other than lots has been going on and I haven't made it a priority.

Exciting news is we have a new granddaughter! Faith Ann was born May 31. Here's a picture..I think she is just beautiful!


Everything is going well on the home front. We are very close to putting the Elko house on the market. Hopefully it will sell quickly and we can get on with our lives. It is very difficult to split your time between the two houses and get anything done. We are really enjoying Spring Creek. We have a beautiful home with the most incredible view of the Rubies. It is well worth the extra few miles every day.

Speaking of miles, I have started walking/running and riding my bike again. We have a program at work that helps you track your steps. The goal is to get in 10,000 steps a day. That is much more difficult than it sounds! I have a buddy (another Lisa, go figure) to keep me accountable on the steps and the pounds. The funny thing is I feel SO good when I exercise..not sure why I ever stop. Once I stop, it is so hard to get started again!

My friend, Cathy over at Pine Freckled Blog is hosting a UFO challenge. In quilt-speak, a UFO is an Un Finished Object. I have decided to join the challenge! I have a LOT of UFOs, but I think Cathy has me beat! Anyone else want to join the fun?

The weather is finally getting nice here in Northern Nevada. I am planning on spending some time outside, looking at those gorgeous mountains this weekend.
