Fishing at Buckeye

This weekend my parents came down to see Koriann and bring Zeke some horses to break. they are pretty nice, considering they are mares. On saturday we decided to go up to Buckeye Resevior and have a picnic and do some fishing. We didn't catch much but we still had fun anyways. Koriann loved throwing rocks in the lake with her daddy. We also finally got our swamp cooler going, thanks to my step-dad Jeff. What a life saver he is.

We are new to this blogging thing, but it looked like a fun way to keep in touch with family and friends. Zeke is so busy working really hard on the ranch. They are swamped with AI the cows and gathering yearling off the mountain. But he is enjoying his work. Koriann and I get to go along with him some days, it is so great to be back out riding and chasing cows. As soon as they are done with the cows Zeke is going to be breaking and training on horses for the rest of the summer. He also might be making and repairing boots. He is so good at both of those, and he loves doing it he could do it for the rest of his life. We love living in Paradox, it is so beautiful. The views are amazing at sunsets. We have also been going up to Buckeye lake, it is one of the most beautiful lake in the four corners area. I love being on the La Sal mountains alot more than the Blues, they are just bigger and they have more private land so you can play more on it. We are just blessed to live and work where we do. The Redd's are so great and generous people. We now actually have electricty and running water, it has been wornderful. Koriann gets her owns room and her own playroom. Outside the is a jungle gym, swings, and a merry-go-round for her to play on. She is the greatest blessing that Zeke and I have ever recieved. We have been through so much in the past two years, it is just great to have Zeke healthy and be past all of that. The biggest thanks goes out too my parents for everything they have done for us. We love you guys.
