Kickoff Weekend

To the holiday season! What better way to start Black Friday than shopping at the mall.

Must be a great sale

at Bath & Body Works

Ryder trying to decide 

which service to purchase.

Proud mom moment!!

Spending his own money to share with others.

Dave has been busy

His new creation a wooden tree.

Time to decorate

Not sure which is worse taking down decorations

or 

putting new ones up.

It's all alot of work.

A Day of Service

Dave, Rylee, Ruston, and Ryder

Built this swing set for a family in need.

They did a good job!

Notice anything wrong with this picture?

44 pounds of dog food on top of my groceries.

A busy weekend never a dull moment to be found. Who's ready to have a Merry Christmas!!

Happy Thanksgiving

It starts early at our house. First thing on Dave's list is putting up the Christmas lights.

Ryder has been replaced as #1 Helper.

A 30 plus year old Ernst Apron that doesn't talk back or argue.

This could be dangerous!

Dave supervising

Looking good!!

Loving the wildlife

Look really close to see the wild rabbits.

Final touches

The food was delicious!

Ken & Dave 

Clean up duty.

Thank you, Rylee & Ruston for inviting us to come over. It was fun getting to know Ruston's extended family. Shared my Orange Fluff and made a friend for life with Ken. The only downside to not eating at home is not having any leftovers for the next couple of days. Maybe I should cook us a turkey on Sunday.

A Few More

Let's have some fun....

Attended Washington City's

city council meeting.

They adopted our proclamation.

Amazing to watch the progression of our words.

Finished the book

in time to attend the BON Event

with the author and his daughter.

It was fun to take mom with me for a great event.

I definitely need to incorporate it more into my life.

Veggie Pizza

Delicious and FREE!!

New pizza place

it was so good!!

The best part it's just down the street.

Almost missed it

again this year.

My favorite tree

Love the Coke bears

Dave's favorite

Love the camping theme

Ruston getting a haircut

Looks like a fun salon

Rylee hit the farmers market.

She found some great treats.

BON Food Drive

I signed up for Harmons

A nice guy bought us a treat.

We couldn't so no to Oreos.

Success!!

Loading up the truck for the

Food Bank.

What more can we fit into this crazy week. Oops!! I forgot all about grocery shopping for Thanksgiving. Hang on for another busy week up ahead.

It's A Dream

Come True!! The boys are headed to Las Vegas for the Mecum Auto Auction. They are both excited for the 3 day event.

As seen on tv.

Ryder is hard at work trying to decide 

which car to bid on.

Pass to bid

This could be expensive.

Ryder got a good deal selling

his black on black Cadillac

Yellow Slip

or Proof of purchase.

However, the deal fell through when the owner couldn't provide a valid title. All that hard work with only the yellow slip to prove it. He did come home with all his money.  Dave on the other had was successful and didn't come home with his money. Instead he drove home a Porsch Boxer.

Stories And Milestones

Time to take a breath and look at a few crazy minutes caught on my camera app.

Yep!!

No matter how hard the choices are.

I am grateful to have that choice.

Hopefully, I have passed that onto my children.

If not. I had better try harder.

Happy 38th Anniversay!!

Dave willingly came along to

the Night Ranger Concert @ Tuacahn

They still know how

to Rock in America!!

Despite their ages they put on a great show.

Sang all my favorites plus.

Northern Lights
