Saturday morning we got up early...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
took them down to the water...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the windchill was below freezing...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hubby needed a beanie....I wanted some coveralls...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't believe they didn't have any at all...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did find a pair of men's Dickey fleece lined work pants...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
got a pair big enough to go over my jeans and layers...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
they will come in handy for our adventures with the dogs...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I put them on when we got back...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

it was midnight before we got to bed....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I woke up at 6:30...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had to download the photos to take a peak...</div>

her boyfriend plays hockey and had a game Saturday night...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that's why he didn't get to come along...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he hurt his ankle playing hockey.....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
thank goodness its a sprain not a break...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he has a splint and has to prop up...</div>

Dawg and Garfield both let me know they were not happy with me...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my son checked in on them on Saturday...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Stringbean has Monday and Tuesday off from school....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been watching a few webinars to try to improve my photography...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and to really get more out of my camera...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm doing photos for a sweet 16 party this month....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she is having a Great Gatsby party...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
they are the family that owns the resort we love to go to at Lake Whitney...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the party will be indoors and outdoors in the evening...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so of course lighting is always an issue...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my daughter is coming to help me...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hubby gets to fish all weekend...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so it's a Win Win for both of us...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm also trying to learn more on posing people...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to get the best of each person...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cause as we all know...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we are very critical of ourselves...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and notice things that other people don't even see...</div>

Stringbean spends more time climbing the basketball goal...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
than he does playing basketball...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
he did inform me today he has been working on his dribbling skills...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at school in PE....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I asked if he wanted to play basketball...</div>

Ginger likes to play ball...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but she has a different version than Rooster...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
she also likes to steal Roosters ball during the middle of his game...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he's really a good sport about it...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he usually goes and finds another ball...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
she used to steal a ball now and then...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my son would find them in his truck when they got home....</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hubby built me a new chicken coop...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it has two sections so I can keep both my Roosters...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dawg is 3 now.... Garfield I hatched this year...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
he was the smallest of the chicks...not so much now...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
he is a honery little character...I have to carry a little hoe in with me...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also hatched 3 little hens...they are laying really well...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I still have the brat pack...Lucky...Fancy and Ace...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
they are 2 now...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also have Dixie and Pip...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
unfortunately Freya ran out of the coop today...Ginger ate her....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ginger is now my dog...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Athena decided she was the queen and they started fighting...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ginger gets along well with Rooster...so we kept her...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfortunately Athena doesn't get to come visit anymore...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stringbean also has a Cat Max...and two guinea pigs...Chloe and Calli...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Still have the 3 boy Rabbits...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Buster is 3 Duke is 2 and Collaso is 1....</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Stringbean played coach pitch baseball in the fall...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my son was the pitcher...it was a fun season...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is really cold here in Texas...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
last year at this time we were wearing short sleeves...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the windchill was 4 degrees this morning...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm no fan of winter...I don't do cold well...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it's good for our business to have extreme weather...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but not fun when you have critters to take care of...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the new chicken coop has radiant heat on each side...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so they are doing good...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">very big...I'm short...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it's always a struggle putting gas in it...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the gas tank is on the flatbed...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">you have to hold on to the gas thingy...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the whole time...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">only a few stations you can set the little lever</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and it will stay...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">so I've got it full...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">go to pull the gas thingy out...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it is stuck...I pull...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">go on other side of it pull...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">step back over...pull...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">no go...I'm thinking...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have to be careful so when I pull...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it doesn't get gas all over me...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">then I'm on my tippy toes...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">trying to see why it's stuck..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Friday was such a great day...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">what a privilege to watch the Inauguration</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">of our 45th President...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">A Historical day....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have been behind President Trump from the beginning...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">owning a business for 26 years...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I've seen we need someone running our country</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">that has business sense...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the politicians we have had running our country</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">for years have done nothing but dig us deeper</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">in debt...and line their pockets...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Time to put America first...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">jobs for America...products from American workers...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We also need to stop all this if you don't agree with my politics or my ideas...my faith...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> I'm going to scream obscenities at you...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">burn down the city...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">or not be your friend...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Your color...size...age...political beliefs...religion</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">do not make me judge you....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">your actions do...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we can always agree to disagree....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">God Bless America...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">God Bless President Trump...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It was definitely a Monday today...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it started super early....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">my DIL is having car problems...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">so my son had to take her to work this morning...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I picked up Stringbean super early...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Stringbean was tired from his weekend...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">he spent the night Saturday night with his Aunt (my daughter) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and her fellow...including Hatari...and the two cats...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">he had a blast...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">trampoline park...sushi...movie ...up until 11:00 pm...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">super late for him...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">then chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">by 10 am today I knew he needed a nap...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">he actually took a hour and 45 minute nap....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">after lunch...we went to find a park I found on line...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it's close to the airport...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we drove around for an hour...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the crazy navigation system steered us wrong...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">like 3 times...$6.00 in fees to the airport...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I finally gave up...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">DFW airport is crazy to try to find your way around...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">or at least it is for me...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">tonight I was playing with my camera...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I looked through the manual to try out settings...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I've had my camera for awhile...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">but have so much to learn...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the sand art was made by Stringbean...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I was really impressed with his vision....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">he loves crafts...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I worked on my calendar today...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The first 3 months are filling up....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">my Daughters bday...my Dad's bday...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">my Bday....trying to work with everyone's schedule...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">no easy task...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">but some how we manage...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Happy Monday....</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My family is a little complicated...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">not so much for today's standards...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">but when I was growing up it was...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">you didn't discuss divorce...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My Mom and Dad got married when she was 14...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">he was 18...I was born when she was 15...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">being young things didn't work out...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">they divorced when I was just a baby...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Mom and I moved in with my Nana...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">visitations got complicated...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">they both ended up marrying others...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Mom married my step dad...they had my brother</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">when I was 2...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My step dad was not a good man...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">but that is a whole different story...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My Dad and Step Mom had a son the year after my brother was born...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I didn't see my Dad again until I was in my early 30's...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I got to know my Granddad Nolan my Dad's Dad...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and his wife Nancy...Nolan passed away...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I was raising my kiddos...and it wasn't until</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">after Nancy passed away that my Dad and I really connected...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I really like my Step Mom...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and her and my Mom get along great...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">now our gatherings are combined with both families...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have a Half brother...a niece...two nephews and a grand niece...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and a grand nephew...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I also have an Uncle that is younger than I am...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The past is in the past...no grudges or hard feelings are held...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the time wasn't right back then...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the time is right now...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My Mom and Step Mom now pick on my Dad...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">at Heritage park in Irving...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">one of the families is in town</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">visiting the other two families...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">she has seen my photos from them...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and asked if I could please do hers...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I feel very honored...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">they are coming from Michigan...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we don't make big plans...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">feels safer to stay home to ring in the new year...</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">What do you do on a beautiful day?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">when you see a nice sandy spot?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">you work on your tricks....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Stringbean and I had a great day....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we spent most of the day outside...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">except when we went swimming...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">at the indoor pool...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we both decided swimming in "Winter"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">is a little more difficult than Summer swimming...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">in the summer we go in our swim suits...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and go home in our wet suits...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">in the winter...you go dressed for the weather...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">change to your suits...then change out of your wet suits...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">into your weather appropriate clothes...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it was definitely worth it...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">even though there is a playground at the park....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">I was impressed with the colors my little point and shoot</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">camera picked up....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it's a little handier on walks with a busy dog...and boy...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we stopped and watched the squirrel for awhile...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">hoping it wasn't thinking of jumping in the water...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">he/she decided to go back the way it came...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the squirrels have been really busy gathering their food...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">sure hope this doesn't mean a long winter...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">After Christmas I start counting down to Spring...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">we found out my son's dog Ginger is not having seizures...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it's more like Vertigo...she actually has an ear infection...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">it has been causing her to get really dizzy...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">hopefully the meds will kick in quick...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My daughter is having fun on her Florida vacation...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">they went hiking today...in the Glades...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">she sent me a selfie of her and her guy...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">with an Gator in the background...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">enough to make a Mom's heart jump for sure...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In February Hubby and I will celebrate our</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">34th wedding anniversary...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In March I turn 55...what the heck is up with that...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">seems like just yesterday I was turning 50...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">well it is just a number after all...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">we are planning a big weekend at our favorite</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">cabins...hopefully lots of family and friends </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">will get to join us...</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">2016 has gone by way too fast...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I don't do New Year's resolutions...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">but I do believe in trying to improve myself...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I think in 2017 my goal is to spend more time</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">just enjoying my family and friends...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and less time stressing about what needs to be done...</span></div>
