The Ice Carnival

We had so much fun at the Mccall winter ice carnival. Dorothy drove us up there as I was to much of a fraidy cat as usual! We stopped at Grandpa Jerry's (Dorothy's dad) house for breakfast, he made us yummy scrambled eggs and french toast. We then headed off for lots of playing and looking at the ice sculptures. Linzee broke the rules and crossed over the yellow caution tape, we could have almost gotten in to trouble, NOT! It was a fun quick outing shared by very good friends!

Mama, what a beautiful lady!!

These are pictures from Mama's Thanks giving party at her house. We had lots of pie and hot cider, yum yum! Mama looked beautiful as always!!!!

Our Family Christmas Party

Tonight was our annual family christmas party. We all had a great time. We really missed having Amber, Dan, Ziney, Tyson and Maddie there. The Nativity was missing a few actors, and then we had that runaway cowboy/wiseman. We had a new addition this year, it was the little drummer boy. Baby Jesus was not happy that she had to be wrapped in swaddling clothes. Oh, Santa was a big hit as ususal. Santa wondered where the Kropf little babies were, but we all know he will be good to them. I love my family and I am so thankful that we all have each other. Ted, Renee, Sid, Auggie and Matteo made us all little ornaments and little wall hangings, they were so cute. This coming year, we have two teenagers that will be graduating, so they gave a little tribute to their moms and dads. The two grads are Mckenzie and TJ. They each gave little talks and they were awesome, TJ made me cry. Man I love that kid!! Linzee is the best and she has been so sweet and helpful through this holiday season.

Well enjoy the pictures, and a very Merry Christmas to all my friends and my wonderful family!! Remember, I love you all!!!!

Little Red Dress

Well winter is here, and lots of snow is here and more to come. So I bought this cute little silk red dress at the dollar store the other day. I could not resist it when I saw it and well for a buck what did I have to lose. Well needless to say, the dress was for Pawco, he was not very thrilled about his new dress, but I thought he looked cute. I told him he had to be comfortable with his masculinity to dress like that. I have posted a couple of pictures here to show you what a cute little girl he makes!!

Hear ye, hear ye,
new blog coming real soon!!
So, stay tuned in.

FaLl, YoU gOtTa LoVe It

Fall has so many changes, here are a few that have taken place lately in our neck of town. The Kids are back in school, and I am oh so glad. They are both doing great and getting good grades. Linzee is still working at Bardenaay and TJ just finished up his summer mowing jobs and took a job at Pojos, the family fun center. He loves his job! I finally got a job as a sales rep for Xerox. I will be selling copiers, printers, fax machines, basically your multi function devices. I just came back from a week in Sacramento, learning all new stuff. I feel like I have been in school, this last month of training. I feel smarter, do I look smarter? ha ha

Oh, I did get to go to prison a couple of weeks ago, lucky for me they let me out the same day!! Ha ha, I was there doing a demo on a copier in their learning center. Let me tell you, it was a bit scary, walking right thru main population, but I survived and learned a lot.

Well Happy Fall and enjoy the beauty we see each and every day in the fall colors.

The Lake Powellers are finally home!

My family all went to Lake Powell this past week. I know they all had a great time, because they all came home with big smiles on their faces, not to mention alot browner faces. I am glad that my baby Linzee is home, I really missed her. I can't wait to see all the pictures they took. Especially the murder mystery party. I heard it was so much fun, lots of plots, stealing, black mailing etc. Hmmm, I was quite surprised to hear who the murderer was on the island. Well family, again I am glad you are all home and home safe! I love you all!!!!! : )
