We came back to Vancouver today, after being in Goldendale for 2 days. It is so good to go to our cabin and get things done. All winter when we would go for a day or one night we usually had Asa and I would just dump the extra stuff I would bring from the trailer in one of the bedrooms and come back, so the crap was really piling up. This time, I cleaned and organized everything, it felt so good to have order and have it really clean again. But as soon as I was done, we came back to Vanc. next time it will be clean and tidy though!!! While we are there, Papa is always out on his tractor, spending all day outside. He moves his crap from place to place on pallets. He has a thing about moving stuff from here to there. Before he had a tractor, he would move the wood pile, stick by stick. He always has to keep busy. I love that crazy man!!!
We miss the girls and grandbabies when we are gone, but it is nice to spend time together also. When we are in Vanc. I spend most of my time with our girls, and sometimes I think Papa is neglected a bit, but we always have fun together.
I am starting a diet and I thought if I posted that statement, it might keep me on it. We have a Gonzalez Family Reunion coming up on the first weekend of June, and I want to lose 20 pounds by then. I will not be posting my weight!!!!, but I will post my pounds lost each week. Both Trina and Cameo have lost 40 pounds each this past year, and they have inspired me to do the same.
Life is good, Beya

I'm back.........
I stopped blogging because blogger was giving me trouble downloading pictures, but I decided that I would just write an entry. I probably don't have any readers anymore since I don't write often. I will try to be better at least once a week, with/without photos.
We have been so busy since returning from our great vacation to San Antoino and Brownsville. Texas is beautiful in the spring. It is only the second time I have been there. The first time 14 years ago, we drove. That was a fun trip, Papa had just bought his first Corvette and we just took off. Cameo was living with Trina and going to College. We were in Texas for Thanksgiving, the first holiday we had been away from the girls, accually, I think it is the only holiday. They never let it happen again. LOL This trip, we flew. It sure was faster!!! We had such a good time. Papa has 2 brothers and sister that live in Brownsville, so we spent most of our time there. I love to stay with family. They made us feel so welcome and I love them all.
Asa is just growing and maturing so much. He is such a sweet boy (most of the time). I love it when he comes to my house at 7 am. He is so cuddly and lets me hold him on my lap at that time for about half and hour. Then he wakes up Papa and plays with him. When Cam calls and Valentina is awake, we go to Cam's and hang there the rest of the morning. He loves his Valentina very much.
Valentina is getting bigger and almost walking. She is very attached to me. If I enter into the blocked living room, I have to pick her up, she makes a beeline for me and yells loud if it takes me too long to pick her up. I had her in the trailer for her nap yesterday. I held her the whole time she napped. So fun.
I know I am always saying the same thing, that I am blessed to live so close to my girls and grandbabies, but that is how I feel. I thank God everyday I am so blessed, I am tired every night, but oh, what a blessing I have. I only hope and I pray I can be a blessing to them as well.
Papa started back to truckdriving part time yesterday. He will be working Sat and Sun. I think he thought it was kind of fun to be back. He was always going to the truck yard to talk to the drivers and mechanics anyway, and it will really help 0ur finances!!!
Life is good!!!
