HELP

Okay, everybody that knows me, knows how much I love my dog! But I am really worried she has suddenly started to shiver or is trembling. She is not cold, or excited or needs to go potty. She still is happy to come and walk......... Anybody have any ideas? I don't want to wait until Monday to feel less worried!!!

Thanksgiving!!!

The crab artichoke dip wasn't such a hit, even with the dogs!







I love Thanksgiving!!! And boy does Mom know how to cook!!! OOO LA LA!!! I had never had a Cajun Deep Friend Turkey. The initial taste was shocking, but leftovers was so so so good!!! And mom made this new green bean casserole. skrumshus!! Love it! Man, I know everybody knows it, but boy mom can really get a meal together.!! The greatest dinner planner and the best chef!
I just made a pie and veggie tray.

Christmas 2008

I love the holidays, especially when our family can get together..... THE WHOLE FAMILY!! That was the best Christmas gift ever. It was fun to see all the grandkids run up and down the home of Jared and Renee's. I am so excited to see more of it, when Matt and Jen move home!!! Hopefully we will find time to see eachother. And I can't wait to have all my nieces and nephews over for a slumber party. Being an aunt is great!!!

Kiss Birthday

Carissa's 17th Birthday Party!!!

Carissa's 17th Birthday Party




If you haven't spent much time with Carissa you probably don't know what an amazing women she has grow into. With the "baby of the family" you would expect a spoiled, indulged, selfish person, but Carissa is nowhere near any of these!
She is the most kind hearted teen ager I have ever met. and I have met quite a few! For being so much younger she has taught me so many things. I love her honest. I seek advice from her because she has a gentle heart and an honest one. If i want truth I come to her. She is a friend anyone would want! I am lucky to have her as a sister too!
I remember when she and I were working on my dad's ranch fixing fence, checking steers and just riding horses. Carissa would out work me everyday. Even when the mosquito were eating us alive she would tell me that we need to finish the fence. She has such a strong work ethic. That is why she is so successful in school, basketball, everything she does. And when it comes to birthdays or Christmas everybody anxiously awaits a gift from Kiss, because you know it will be awesome. She really thinks about what you want and no price is too much. Her heart is pure and kind. I really love Kiss and she is such a good example and friend. I am glad to call Kiss sister and Friend!!!

Europe August 2008

This was a visit in Germany to Dachau, one of the most shocking concentration camps. Heartbreakig history of what pride in man can do! The picture that looks like brick ovens, they are! But not for pizza :(

This is Ashley my Europe Partner. We had been on the road for days, can you tell we were getting tired!!!?

A prettier side of Germany. The castle that inspired Disneys Castle.

And hereis my cute german man I wanted to take home.

I loved visiting Europe, But in the end I missed God's Country USA!!! We flew into Paris for a day, then went to Florence, Venice, Italy. Then to Switzerland, which was the most beautiful landscape I have ever seen!!! I would go back there in a heartbeat. Then Germany, Frieberg to Berlin, hopped on a plane to Dontesk Ukraine. And back home. It was a trip full of memories and pictures. God Bless America. I love this land and our people.
