Riggs Ranch Review

Roscoe Riggs

Is he a Border Collie or St. Bernard?  Our vet keeps telling us that he looks like a St. Bernard puppy...so we found a barrel of monkeys to simulate the barrels that the St. Bernards wear. What do you think?

On a more serious note...he is growing fast!  We do find that he has a very, very kind personality and seems to have less energy than Annie.  However, his is still a puppy and is always looking for something to get into.  He has learned to open doors (Oh Joy)...so we have to keep quite a few of them locked.  Our biggest challenge is going to be the "come" command.  He seems to have an independent nature.  We are starting round two of obedience training next week.  Wish us luck!

Word of the Year

 
This year my word of the year is SIMPLIFY.  I have been thinking of this word for a long time.  I am hopeful that I can simplify processes at work and at home.  I have a habit of trying to make a lot out of a little and find that it is more enjoyable to just keep it a little. 

I chose the word vitality last year and don't feel that I concentrated on it enough.  It was especially hard ending the year with a surgery and bronchitis.  Hopefully my new word will be more attainable.

Happy New Year

Hi Everyone.  Remember me?  I have been a very bad blogger!  I will try very hard to be better.

I hope everyone has a very abundant and healthy new year.  I am placing the importance on healthy after just recovering from bronchitis.

Today I have been working on an online class that I am participating in.  It is called Design Your Life taught by Cathy Zielske.  I have completed a few layouts that I have been meaning to do.  Here they are:

 

These are from a recent drive that Monty and I took to some ovens that are out on a 4 wheel drive road.

 

This is from a trip to southern AZ with our daughter and son in law.

 

And finally a page that my brother Mark requested of his families trip to the ball park.

I hope that you all have a great start to your new year!
