Fall is here!

I love this time of year!! The weather is a bit cooler, the leaves are starting to change here in Silver and we are planning Thanksgiving!! We are having Thanksgiving celebration at our house this year- so that will be heaps of fun!!
My mom likes to comment that I end every sentence with an exclamation point.... I told her mom "my life is an exclamation point" =) and I am not exaggerating!!
Cody is working away and getting ready for his big elk hunt coming up in Nov. He is SO excited, and Abs and I are excited for him. He is actually on our back porch now calling in deer with his new call.
Abigail is as always SO much fun, and I basically have the best job in the world- teaching, guiding, and loving on this precious little girl. She is sitting in my lap now watching bbc talking animals on youtube (if you haven't seen it- check it out.... really funny)

We have been meeting some wonderful friends here in Silver and it is really fun starting to get involved a bit in the community. Abs and I go to a toddler reading class at the library and a really fun play group with wonderful people! We are blessed.

I also had my 29th birthday last week! So my mom and sis came up and made it such a special day! I also got a DOUBLE JOGGER stroller from my parents- what a great gift! Cause I will be running with two here in a couple months. We are 25 weeks with baby bear #2, this little one kicks a TON! wow- kinda crazy, maybe llittle one will be a soccer star....=0)

the zoo, the beach, and more adventures of Abs!

We have been SO busy lately- mostly having fun and enjoying the summer! We have been to the EL Paso Zoo, Ventura California beach, camping, Sea World in San Diego, Abs got a new mt. seat, lots of swimming, and on top of it all we moved into our NEW HOUSE in Silver City!! Here are a few photos!

it's been a while...

wow- I am not a very good blogger lately, but I do however have a pretty good "excuse"....
We have lots going on in the Roberson family lately. First of all we had a big move (that is not quite all the way over...) Cody got a new job for NRCS in Silver City, NM! So we packed up... (well "we" actually didn't do much of the packing, a moving company came and packed us and moved us!) which was such a blessing from God cause I haven't been feeling so hot lately. So Cody started his job in Silver while we are looking for a house, and Abs and I are staying with my parents till we find a house and get settled. We were very sad to leave Southern CO, we have had a wonderful 2 years there and we are praying we get to go back- BUT for now, God has us back in NM- which is not all that bad, since we are only 2 hours from our family!! Which will be so nice especially come January.... yep- we are having another BABY!! Abs is going to be a big sister!! We are all SO excited!!
Abs is 18months and thriving=0), she is SO busy and SO much fun! Wow, you think your life is busy when you have a baby- WAIT till you have a toddler- I had no idea what was coming, but we spend most of the day chasing around our little explorer, climber, swimmer, talker, dancer, and MS. Attitude (she doesn't get that from her mom.. ) we couldn't ask for a better life, she is so precious and we are SO blessed to be her parents. (just remind me of that when I am spanking her for tell her mommy "No" when I ask her to do something=0)
But God is faithful- and I need to keep trusting and leaning on him in this whole new world of parenting!! Abigail belongs to Him- what a relief!!

Resurrection Sunday!

Happy SPRING everyone!! And more important Happy Resurrection Sunday!! We had a wonderful Easter starting out early in the morning as we joined our brothers and sisters in Christ at a sunrise service! We drove out to a couple's house that overlooks the whole montezuma county and LaPlata mountains and watched the sun rise over the clouds and watched the light burst forth a Glorious morning!! We then had a wonderful breakfast potluck and fellowship. Then we headed home so sleepy little abigail could have a morning nap and so we could get ready for Easter service at 11. This was also the fist service in our new sanctuary!! What a wonderful service and a wonderful reminder of what Christ has done for us and how the grave does not hold him- because he has RISEN!!
We ended the service with one of my favorite songs "because He lives". I love that song because it always reminds that me that we can face uncertain and tough days ONLY because HE lives and HE is alive today! Praise His Holy name!!
I am going to attach the word to this song so you can read them and be encouraged!!

God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus;
He came to love, heal and forgive;
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!
Chorus
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!

How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
And feel the pride and joy he gives;
But greater still the calm assurance:
This child can face uncertain days because He Lives!

Chorus
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!

And then one day, I'll cross the river,
I'll fight life's final war with pain;
And then, as death gives way to vict'ry,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!

Chorus
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!

Now being a mom and holding precious Abigail in my arms I am even more touched and encouraged that she can face the future no matter what it holds because our Savior Lives!!
