Ramblings from September and October

    Ramblings is exactly what this post is going to be.  Nothing super exciting has occurred these past couple of months. Pretty much Ryan has been working like crazy in these audition rotations and I have been in a Rehabilitation Hospital rotation and just hanging out with Abbi, but we do have some great news!!!!  WE ARE EXPECTING RYAN IN 5 DAYS!!!! (gotcha there didn't I)  The long, crazy four months of Ryan being gone is finally coming to a close.  I am so proud of him for working so hard and studying like crazy.  Lucky for us, Ryan's hard work has paid off and he has received 7 interviews, four which were from his top programs!!!!  (will post about this later on)


     Well since I don't have a cute kid to post about, our little miss Abbi will have to do.  Here is what we have been doing the past couple of months.

1.  Abbi has become quite the outdoors/hiking dog.  She keeps up extremely well and loves being outdoors.  She loves the car rides over, so she can ride out the window and bite at the wind.

The new Phoenix, Temple from our hike

2.  Here are some random pictures of things we have also been up to

Abbi was ready to chew on the biggest bones

Mom was running the vacuum again

A delicious icee/custard ice cream place that the lady friends and I go to quite often do dog treats, so Abbi got a treat as well

Found out Abbi's favorite show is Marley and Me.  She would not move away from the TV.

Abbi got spayed and had to wear the cone of shame

Got caught red-handed in moms dresses

3.  Abbi and I went to Sedona to go and see some fall colors and play in the river, we were in heaven.

4.  A while back in August, my sisters and I were able to take some pictures with our beloved horse Danny who has been in the family longer then myself.  Some may find this odd, but this horse has a very special place in my family.  Unfortunately he is 29 years old and will probably not be with us much longer.  They turned out phenomenal and priceless.  Here is just a few pictures...

5.  And of course we can't forget, the priceless and best thing that technology has invented....FaceTime with Ryan.  Unfortunately this really only happened like once or twice a month but it sure was a special treat.

And to end this post, I have to post this cute picture of my dad....is he not the cutest cowboy???
