“Pinch Me” Moments

Do you ever have moments where you are so content and happy? Those times when you stop and ask yourself “Is this really my life?

Sometimes when I feel this way I’ll turn to Kyle and say “pinch me!” just to make sure I’m not dreaming.

I have had probably hundreds of those moments in the past week and a half. Some of them I was fortunate enough to capture on camera, most of them came as a feeling of complete happiness and satisfaction.

 

Exploring Canyonlands.

Hiking off road arches with the Bowmans.

Roasting hot dogs and smores in our fireplace after being outside in the cold.

Newspaper Rock.

The Falls.

This is one of those times I ask Kyle to pinch me. I can’t believe how lucky I am to live at the foot of that mountain!

Kyle is so cool! He set up a presentation with the elementary last week that involved our troopers, our canine unit, a ‘bad guy’ and UHP’s helicopter. It was so darn awesome! Kyle gave Lily the royal treatment and let her sit in Pilot Luke’s seat. Her squeals of excitement were priceless!

Arches National Park

That’s right, we climbed on TOP of the arch!

Delicate Arch

Tenlee – I am a puddle of auntie goo when I see this!

Familia Garcia Easter picnic

Although Johnna and my family were about the only white people there, the Garcia’s, as always, treated us just like family!

Kyle found TWO of the coveted money eggs at the Easter egg hunt!

Kyle and his brown brother, TC Garcia

Kind cowboy stranger

Nothin’ like coolin’ off in the pool and then eating Lucky Charms and watching Animal Planet in the hotel after.

And this is what I get after taking umpteen pictures of Kyle with his eyes closed/halfway shut.

Oh my goodness I have a good life!

Somebody pinch me.
