Dyeing
Enough of dying, had to blog about dyeing instead!
Family Birthday
We attended a birthday party for Johnny’s oldest brother today… George is now 102 years young. It’s always a good time visiting with relatives and asking some clarification on family stories. Plus there’s always the family photos… The original George Greet who immigrated to the U.S. in the 1880’s. He began the ranch on Spring…
I know you are reading this on Christmas day, but I’m writing it on Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve is the birthday of Johnny, and I thought it was about time I gave more than a passing Happy Birthday to him at the bottom of a post! I just wanted everyone to know that this man…
Great Deal
Another visit with the Man in Red. Neither Lacee nor Jaxon was going to get very close. While Lacee was working up her courage, Jaxon was in my lap sobbing. Poor little guy. He’d been so excited to see Santa, but the actual face to face was just too much. Good ol’ Santa, though… he…
Traditions!
(I always say that word like Tevye does… TRADITIONS!) Last night’s blog got me to thinking… what are my family’s Christmas traditions??? Well, first of all… Christmas Eve is Oyster Stew.

Entertainment
The thing about Christmas programs when you’re a preschooler… is the waiting. There’s Quinlan in the green shirt. It was a long program… and the preschoolers were one of the last to perform. Usually they’re one of the first and then they’re sent to sit with their parents… but this was a new all-school format……
Happy Halloween

Halloween is Coming!
Halloween is coming! Brandon grew these… Big enough to climb into… While the boys were helped with carving their jack-o-lanterns… the girls were turned loose with paintbrushes. Oh, boy… my studio will get a workout one of these days…
Birthday
A little house painting… a little cleaning… A little birthday cake! Yup, the oldest grandson turned four today. FOUR. Pretty amazing. There’s ranchwork to come tomorrow, but today please indulge me with cute grandkid photos! The birthday boy, Quinlan. Jaxon… trying to put Quinlan’s new ambulance in his pocket so he can ride the trike….
