Getting decorations ready to take out to the cemetary!

Just wanted to show you a close up

of the flowers so you could see

what they look like.

The flowers look like they are heavy on

the top but they aren't, it must be

the angle I am looking at!!

It is really pretty to watch this

sit and spin, gives a really neat

look!

You can't really see good on this picture,

but I wanted you to see how the hook

really is kinda skimpy with flowers, I

like it, it looks real country I think.

New Additions :)

This is a new addition I purchased off the garage

sale website!!
I got this one at a garage sale the other day, and
she reminds me of Brooke :) I got to know Brooke
when we were up in WI last weekend, and what
a card she is, she is such a cutie!!! Didn't get
to see Jayda and Addy as they were up at the Cabin,
so we missed out on them, hopefully we can see them when
we come back in June!!!
Breeya and Brady never change!!!
Love you guys :)

This is my favorite, she is soo sweet, and soft!!
I also got her at a garage sale, Loyd was waiting
in the van, shaking his head as I come walking
back with two more dolls.....lol
I've lost count not sure how many I have now....

What a night!!!!

Oh hell yeah, we're having a GOOD

time!! Waiting for the show to

start!!

Loyds eyes are closed, but he does

have a smile on his face!!! LMAO
We had really good seats!!

Jason was looking good!!

This is Luke in the far side of the stage running up

a ramp, and when he came down he fell!

In his words "I broke my ASS" lol

He said to look for it on Utube!!

Thanks again Kaleigh and Anthony!!!

I can not thank you guys enough,

haven't had that much fun

in forever!!

What a SUPER show, if given the chance go

Shephard hook at night!

This gives you an idea on what the

shephards hook I decorated looks like

at night, it is brighter than this, but

seems lights never show up good

on camera!

Looks like i need to go out tomorrow

and straighten out the bow!!

This is without the flash, it still

is brighter than this, but it gives

you a good idea what it looks like.

I know Donna is thinking she is all

that, cause she is the only one with

lights on her Christmas decoration :)

Merry Christmas Sister!!

For my Sister :)

These are pictures of a shephards hook

I put together today to take out by Donna.

It has solar Christmas lights

on it! She will love it!!

A picture of the bow, it looks like

Santa's belt!! I had fun doing

this and thought about her all

the while I was doing it :)

This is a rough time of year, as

it was her Favorite time of year!

Miss you soooo much sister!!

A fun filled weekend!!

Had a celebration for Kathys birthday, which

is later on in the month!!

We had a blast at the Casino!! Kathy is

winning big :) actually, Aimee was the

Big winner!! Way to go Aim :)

Wasted away in Margaritaville!!

These went down real well :)

The meal and DRINKS were great

at Carlos O Kelly's :)

You go Aim, it has been a long day, and we

are good and Thirsty!! Chips, Salsa, and a

GOOD drink always hit the spot!!

Trip to Lansing!

 As you can see alot of leaves have fallen already,

but still alot of pretty color!

 This picture is taken at Efigey Mounds up by

Marquette. 

 This was a awesome scene!  Could of stood here all

day, very relaxing view..

 This is a swag that Rick gave me that was Donna's!

She had these and never used them that I know of, they

are beautiful, so I decided I was going to use them!

 I know she was out there with me, as I kept making

sure they were pretty much spaced equal and everything

looked right, and that is NOT me, that is my

" sister "!!  Sure do miss her!!

 I put a string of lights on them so I can't wait

until tonight so i can see what it looks like..

 I still have the Ole Crow she bought

me as well!!  Our witch will be with us

for a couple more years as well :)

recorded the weigh-ins!!

 Boats starting to head back in....

boat!!!  You go Ter :)  Way nice boat..Loyd and I

truly enjoyed the tournament.  We drove down to

Dubuque today.  Was a very nice day...Was nice

Picking Elderberries

Ok, so i put these pictures on here backwards

What can I say. This is Loyds bucket, we have along

way to go yet!!

This is my bucket, as you can see Loyd is better

at this than I am, only because I have Never done

this before...

These are the stems after we have destemmed

the Elderberries, we have to pick all those

little tiny berries off the stems. Very time

consuming, at least for me....We have three big

bags of these to do.....Gonna take awhile...

This is Loyd working on de-stemming them.

we were wearing plastic gloves, cause they will

stain your fingers and it will NOT wash off...

This is what they look like when Loyd cut them

off the bush.. You can see how tiny they are.

I am going to cook them down and make them into

jelly. I have never had this, but Loyd says it is really good,

he used to do this at home as a child. I'm anxious

to see what it taste like....I'm excited :)

Picking Elderberries

Oh what a deal!!!!

This is my new "Miche" purse I got at the

garage sale along with these shells.

I'm excited!!! LOL
