while I wait...

 GO for hike...

prove that Devils can make Angels

 Blaze asking if we have left yet 

so he can go play with his buddy Gavin

Snowmobiles having LOTS of fun in all our snow

... please note - I really hoped we could leave for GA today... 

but... we are STILL HERE - 

- so I  tried to get the man to go snowshoeing with me... 

he didn't say no, but he did say if you really want some exercise

 there is just a skiff of snow on the drive way shoveling it is good exercise...

 so I shoveled - 

when he came out to help I said his SKIFF of snow was more than 2 inches... 

he promtly gets out his scale and measures it... 

Looks at me all sheepish like and says, "Well I'll be darned..."  

  Yes I shoveled,

 played frisbee  with the dog 

and went for a long hike in the hills... 

and elipticaled - -

 and I still am asking...

 "have we left yet" ;-)))))

Waiting

Sorry I haven't posted in a couple days...

My brain is not here and has already left for Georgia...

Anxiously awaiting hubbies 

YES 

decision to leave.... 

Would rather be there waiting  than here 

with the chance of missing the arrival all together!!

SNOW - thats our news 

seems we get a couple new inches every day...

We did get a bit of sun yesterday ...

that felt so good - -

Days are getting longer so that means 

SPRING 

is coming - - 

Take care -
Watch for news...

an adorable picture from Jan 2

Our beautiful Girl with her brown eyed boys

But he looks so innocent...

so usually we can leave left overs in the car

 and Blaze does not touch them - 

BUT today -

 he moved my left overs out of the way - opened Bruces -

 ate it all AND THEN closed the lid??

 Never  touched mine... 

Bruce was laughing so hard he could hardly scold him...

I told him it was

 "Grandpa" practice ;-)

We are sad today

Got word that our tiny cousin passed away -

I cannot describe how pretty it was as the 

sun came out as I was heading out and
