Hiking

Junior & I took a hike (kinda of).  He's still on restriction from his surgery.  Here are some pictures I took while we were out:

 Ok, this wasnt on our hike.  We were at mom's visiting the horses.

 Sparky! 

 This was our hike; we watched the ducks in the pond.  I wanted to close up of one but but lens isnt strong enough :( 

 On our hike around the pond. 

 This is a local (but out in the country) park that is hardly ever used.  That's why we love it! 

Shooting at Robinson's

...well I went shooting today at Robinson's, and wouldn't ya know I didn't see nearly as much wildlife as I usually do...

Well...off from another hiatus

Well, Junior had his other (and final, hopefully) surgery.  I've made a commitment (to myself) to start taking more pictures as well.  I wish I could find someplace to showcase my work.  I will find that place some day!

Junior, home resting.

I've enjoyed getting caught up on other people's blogs.  

Hop everyone has had a great start to their new year!  Less wanting, more doing!

 Trapunto pictures I purchased at an antique store a few weeks back.  I may try to sell these, but they sure look good on my wall just off my kitchen. 

 Painting I bought myself just before Christmas.  LOVE IT!  

Sunday before Junior's surgery (his surgery was Tuesday morning), we hung out at the causeway.  Had a great time.

It's sad I haven't updated since Oct 1st....

...& now it's almost Christmas!

I always have such good intentions...

Anyhow, we're decorated and ready to go.  It's been a little crazy; doing way more shopping than I'm use to.  

Junior has finally done it to his knee.  I have put off surgery as long as possible I'm afraid, I'm trying to get him scheduled for January.  

 My tree :)  My nephew decorated it, so all the decorations are kinda centrally located.  

 a picture my mom got me for Christmas.  I'm not sure where I'm going to hang it yet, but I'm going to have it up year round. 

 My outside tree :) 

 The baby has been coming to visit us.  He's gotten so much bigger since this picture! 

 My village. I was so excited to find the horse and sleigh yesterday at the dollar store! 

My manger :) 

I made home-made cranberry sauce for t


he first time this Thanksgiving.  Tart, but I loved it!
