The best way to spread Christmas Cheer is Singing Loudly for all to hear!
We got to see the BIG GUY! It was a chance meeting and so very needed:) So glad we were 
able to show Beau and Lucas this Magical part of the Holidays.

by himself!
His smile can make any day a good day:) This year its 
all about these smiles and nothing else.
Tents. I need to start a tent count this year and see how many we
actually end up with. Might be a little more now that we have a
tent making kit Thanks to Our sweet Kelly!

 We celebrated my Brothers Birthday 38 always such a 
very hard day after Christmas. Miss him more and more as time passes.

 We found out 2 days after Christmas that our sweet Zoey bear will not make it to 
her 15TH Birthday in March. Such a hard thing to find out right after Christmas. 
Truly in my heart I have felt that this was her last Christmas with us but, I never
imagined finding out so soon after. She has been one of the most Beautiful souls I 
have ever come across.
I took her on a special trip just the two of us last week.
a trip that we usually take every year for her Birthday. This was
the exact spot that we first met almost 13 years ago. 
This sunset was so beautiful I had to drive to the top
of French Park to get a better view. We already know 
how this new year will start for us lets just hope we can 
breathe big deep breaths through it all.
