A Time In San Antonio

Three years ago I lived in the great city of San Antonio.  I had great friends, I loved my job, and I always found fun things to do.  I knew I would continue to return to visit San Antonio after I left that first time.  However, I never knew then that a person I would meet far from Texas would be a primary reason to bring me back! 

This past Christmas, Kenny and I enjoyed spending the holiday season with his family in San Antonio.  Not only did we visit and spend loads of time with his family, we made it out and about to so many other happenings! 

It has been a great Christmas and we've brought in the new year with style!
 

 SPURS!
 We went to the AT&T center for a San Antonio Spurs game.  It was awesome!  My favorite Spur is Coyote, but Kawhi Leonard and Manu Ginobili are my favorite players on the court!
 The crowd at the Spurs game was so fun to be a part of!  Such amazing fans!
Alamo Bowl!  Oregon beat Texas! Was quite the game with such a different crowd from a Spurs game!
 
Big Lou's Pizza.  Enough said.  The photos speak for themselves!
 
  

Happy New YEAR!
 

MIA

I know.  It has been six months since my last post.  
 
Where have I been?
 
I have been at the WI State Fair.  I've fed calves on my family's farm.  I have been in the kitchen baking pies and sugar cookies and all things sweet.  I worked at a bakery where all the tasty treats beckoned me daily to eat them all.  I was in Madison for a Local Natives/Wild Nothing concert.
 
I was sitting in the blue chair trying to find contentment and just enjoy reading a book.  I was down in the pasture and woods searching for lost heifers who were about to calve.  I was at the grocery store buying RumChata for a birthday gift.  I was washing my clothes with a washer and dryer and drinking water straight from a running tap. 
 
I was at Thanksgiving with my family and enjoyed Black Friday shopping.  I was able to go to the bank and deposit money I'd earned from working.  I wore dresses.  I wore all types of dresses whenever I chose to wear them.  I've also been out in the snow and enjoyed the warmth of a furnace after the chill of outdoors. 
 
I have also been in my own self.  I sometimes found myself in my room with tears in my eyes.  I have been inside my head thinking through everything and contemplating all of life.   
 
But this journey of life won't ever stop.  I will always be on some path of this universe.  I am not always sure what my life will bring and sometimes I am not happy with what I find.  Other times I am so glad with all that the world offers and sets forth for me. 
 
I have most assuredly been MIA from my blog.  Unfortunately, from time to time I find myself almost MIA from daily life. 
 
But I am finding my way back.  Slowly.  But it is this journey that I have found myself on.  The journey of life!  We live and we learn.  Sometimes we are only living, but it is even more great when we learn, too!
