Fall Family FUN! With fall upon us, I wanted to share some fun family ideas you can start planning now. I’d love to hear what you’re going to be doing!  Here are 4 quick ideas to help you plan your fall family FUN! Decorate inside & out. When I was a kid, I always looked forward to helping Mom decorate for holidays. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas… it was always fun pulling out the treasures and helping Mom put them out. Start a tradition in your home. Family FUN day. Choose a day each month that is designated Family FUN day and plan several hours out of the home bonding together. It could be going to the local pumpkin patch to pick pumpkins, taste apple cider, and a hayride or visiting an outdoor park and having a picnic or going to an amusement park before it gets too cold. Or why not have a fun family game of touch football? Think about what your family enjoys, plan it & do it! Toast marshmallows. Who doesn’t like a toasted marshmallow? Head out back on...

Happy Saturday! It is a busy day here today. Between Real Estate and Ranching I think I am going to hit my 10,000 steps before 2! Taking a quick break to wish you all a happy Saturday! I think instead of busy I should say Crazy. Seeing a lot of thing’s I haven’t seen for years or ever in my short life! The wind is howling today so that is making the showings of land a little tricky but at least I am able to regain my senses in the truck! Stay safe and have a great day!

My Niche What is my niche?  A tough question for me to answer but I will give it a shot. I have found that I really enjoy working with land. Any type of land! I love going out and looking at the views and the potential that piece of land holds. I am not sure that is because I am a rancher and I love to see my cows out in the pasture or if I just like land but regardless that is what I put the most effort into.             I think one aspect that sets me apart from other agents is I am always willing to learn.

A beautiful Thursday Morning here at 9494 Ft! Gotta love the mountain air before a storm blows in! Waiting to see if much comes out of this storm, Not sure if we are in for a blizzard or a dusting... Gotta love Colorado weather! However, we have everything prepared in case it is a big one so feeding the cattle will be done with ease, I can work from the house and by the fire place so I don't have to try and drive with the snow plows. Over all I am more excited to get some moisture in the ground! We need it fire dangers are high here and there have been a few small fires already this year. With the warmer months coming I am hoping that the people who come to enjoy our little slice of heaven are smart about fires and we avoid another big one. Hope everyone has a wonderful day today! If you are expecting a storm, hope you stay warm and safe!
