Trimming the tree in Texas!

The kids sent this picture of tree trimming in Round Rock! Boy, do I miss them!!!! Thank goodness for webcams. It's kind of hard to hug the screen though. lol.

Our grandaughter Ashlii.

These are our two dogs, Lucy who is 2 and Trixie, aka Stinky, who is 1. Both are so sweet but really a handful. They love to nap with Papa every afternoon.

This was Thanksgiving at our house last November. My brother Mike is on the left and his wife Cyndi has on the blue sweater. My 83 yr old mom is next to Jennifer. The hugging couple are Cyndi's son and wife from her previous marriage. Her other son Matt is in front of the TV, next to Chris, Jen's hubby. In between Natalie and Griffin is Cyndi's grandson Marcus. Oh, between Mary Lou and Jerry is their son, Dr. Brian! It was crowded by we managed. Wish all of us could be together. Someday.

This was taken at LL Bean's in Maine last August when the Hart kids went camping in Maine and George, Joe and I went to a race in Maine. We met up, camped for a couple of days and then they went further up in Maine and we came home. Great fun. This is when I got Joe to smile for at least a second.

I love this picture of Sophie Kate with Papa and I. We were out with the family for Papa's birthday dinner. What fun we had in Utah. This was in September 2007.

Our 2nd Nurse!

This was back in August when Jen graduated and got her nursing degree! Now her husband is a nurse, she is a nurse and son Chris is almost a nurse! Any Doctor's in the house????

This is my first attempt at a blog so bear with me until I learn the ropes!
