Some pictures from early October...a trip to the lake. Hooray for outings with good friends!

Happiness

Happiness is laughing uncontrollably while a two year old tries to tickle you or kiss you to death. Happiness is spending an evening chasing two and three year olds around a large park while trying to listen to the good music of John Schmidt.

Happiness is learning from the past and building a bright future. Life is Priceless.
Today, I found happiness is so many ways... Thank you Father in Heaven.

Mag Lab

So apparently I am the new face of the Mag. lab RET program, the program I did this summer in Florida. They didn't use a great picture but it's still pretty neat!! I think I was mid-sentence explaining the work that I was doing.

Birthday

Thanks for a wonderful birthday, this year!

New Place

Okay so this is the backyard...part of it..I will take more photos and post them soon.

The cat that lives in the barn and loves Jesus...and Jesus loves him..too bad he gives him allergies! He named it L.E. after my friend from work.

The swingset that I am ever so grateful for!
This truly is a piece of paradise for someone who will not be a homeowner anytime soon! How much we have blessed!

Everyday Excursions

At Bear Lake a few weeks back with Auntie and Shawn. Jesus rode in the tube, behind the boat all on his own also!! This kid has no fear!

Playing in our new backyard...so much to explore!

Just showing Mommy some love! And busting a move...as he so often does.

I just love my son...he has SO much character! I seem to always leave my camera behind but occassionally I remember and snap a few cute photos...

Depressing Update

As mentioned in my title this post may be depressing...Sorry in advance.

I have already had people confront me with rumors, questions, etc. I am here to give everyone facts at one time. I am not looking for pity or empathy...I just want to be straight forward and honest because I care about everyone that may read this blog.

Antonio and I are going through a divorce. It has been a very long time coming, not a quick, easy out by any means. I wont discuss details because that is between him, the Lord, and I.

I know it will be an extremely hard journey...but best for all of us, including our son who will not understand until he is older.

As I said, I'm not looking for pity, or people feeling sorry or judging us. It is for the best in our specific situation.

If anyone really desires to say something please do so through email to chrisanchez50@gmail.com.

Thank you for all of the love and support our friends and family have given us over the years.

God Bless.
