Here is a picture of Aria Jane born December 22nd. Whoops sorry so big ... just like her eyes

Good afternoon from semi sunny, chilly, SW. Pa....We still have a dusting of snow but hopefully it will melt soon.....

I just got back from a trip to Pittsburgh with 2 gal friends...We went to the Christmas flower show at Phipps Conservatory, then onto Carnegie museum, than stopped for a late and long lunch....It was a wonderful day, great to spend with good friends and the flowers were absolutely breath taking.....

In reading the posts, there has been so much happiness in the last couple of days...New babies, new engagements, new projects.....It is going to be a good new year......

Terry and the boys were supposed to go skiing but decided against it...I guess even with snow makers, there might not be enough snow....I think we might head to Home Depot to get a new medicine cabinet for the bathroom....Yesterday, we went and ordered a new recliner for Jim, stopped and returned 2 shirts for Nicky and then stopped at 2 Thrift shops....They love to spend my money......

Izzy, your picture was gorgeous....Isn't it funny, how you get this mental picture of someone and then when you see the real person, find it's nothing like that picture? Well, Izzy, I pictured you as a back hills farmer, complete with bib overalls, mud covered clodhoppers and a shotgun slung over your shoulder, lol....But, your picture proved me wrong, you are gorgeous...You whole family is gorgeous...But, somehow, you just don't look like you'd be in the barn in the middle of the night birthing a goat or helping a baby goat learn to eat..But, no matter, you are a very busy, special person and I'm so darn glad you joined us.....

Jana, I know what you mean about lazy cat...I often think our cats feel, chasing a mouse, would be beneath them..That or they just wouldn't know what a live mouse is...I also laughed at you telling DGS to shoot it! Years ago, our young neighbor called Jim late at night and told him to bring a gun...A bat had come in through the chimney and was in the living room...Jim went up with the skimmer from our pool and found her chasing this thing with a broom and kept telling him, "get your gun, just shoot it"! In the end, the poor thing gave up and jumped in the net and pleaded with Jim to take him outside (away from that crazy lady)......Would loved to have had a video.....

Suzette, if you don't mind, send that DH my way....My laundry is piling up although our washer seems to be running every day...I've forgotten how many towels are needed for a housefull.....

Oh well, best I get moving...Sure wouldn't want the car to leave without me....

You all have a great rest of the day....

Dorothy ROFLOL at your pic of me. If you could see me most days. Today I have on my denim skirt gray tshirt olive socks, and my DH grandmas sweater she gave me before she passed now its pink and gray only has two buttons left on it but dag gone its comfy. I just kicked off my muck boots from feeding. My blonde hair is up in a clip and wind blown and no contacts just my glasses today. LOL Now thats the real me. Nothing ever matches and as my mom says "I look like orphan annie before money lol"

Im not usually toteing a shot gun but a 38 special:) Last time I shot the shotgun just about ended up on my behind:))))

Teresa--she is beautiful! So alert and just out and out pretty!

I have been scaling Mt. Rushmore all day as well as vacuuming, sweeping and mopping the floors. I did the floors several times only to have them tracked up before they dried. I just gave up for now. Tomorrow will be my day in town with my friend, Mom, and grocery shopping--don't need much... just enough to HAVE to go...

Have a wonderful evening and tomorrow!

Good Afternoon Everyone!
Just had to say, The Rose Parade is on New Year's morning in Pasadena. I think it starts 9:00 local time (PST). (It may start at 8:00.) Unless New Years is on a Sunday it is always on New Years Day. It is always a beautiful parade. I have been lucky enough to have been there in person several times, but not for many years.

Teresa - The baby is beautiful! Congratulations! I kept wondering where the picture was everyone was seeing.

Congrats to Jacquie and Teresa on two beautiful granddaughters!

My favorite aunt passed away Christmas Eve. I didn't want to bring sad tidings so I've been MIA. But, life must go on.

See y'all tomorrow. xoxo Sharona
