Christmas 2011

Christmas is over and it was fun. I never did get all of my decorations put up because we were doing more projects on the inside of the house, but the tree did get up and a few other things so it was still nice.

Cody was funny.  Everything he opened he would say "Oh my Goodness" and he was so excited about everything.  Kids can keep you entertained on Christmas day with all of their excitement.  Loved it and Happy Birthday to Jesus!

I wanted some pictures of Tashauna and Emily 

Little did I know that the two of them are great posers for pictures :-)

It's Great when you are friends with your cousin!

Laying on the bar... It's a wonder it didn't fall apart

It hasn't been used in years.

I Love this Picture!  These two crack me Up!!!

And we get to the Cabin...

Let the Fun & Cooking Begin!

The S3X Band on Tour 

They were exhausted and hungry

so I opened my house up to them

Jason - Nick - Nate - Corey

They were the nicest young men and I made sure they 

were fed well.  They left here and went on to Canada and 

then to New York.

how to use the settings on my camera.

The street lights look like stars

I had the camera lens set to stay open and snapped the picture

as a semi was driving by, the red lights are from the top and bottom 

of the side of the semi.  This was a fun night!

This was the kind of car I had when I was 16 years old

If it would have, I wouldn't have let my brother drive it!

This was the coolest place ever!

We took the bus tour because we got there a little late,

but it was well worth it.  As you can see, John and Tashauna

are still goofing off.

Crazy Horse does a laser light show at night, which I 

couldn't get any super cool pictures of that, but it was worth

staying for the night show.

We could have gotten dressed up in old time clothes

but it was at least 110 degrees outside so we declined!

And what is a Camel doing in the middle of 1880 Town???
