Bingo words

Saturday's Bingo Words are Cupid and Be My Valentine. There will be no bingo words on Sunday. That's my day to enjoy my family. Hope you can do the same. Until next time....

Pictures

I received the sweetest surprise last week. My cousin, Baby, sent some old pictures of my family through email. I was so surprised to see pictures that I have never seen before. So I asked if she would send more. Well then her sister, Pam, got on the bandwagon and between the two of them I am still receiving old pictures of my family. It may not seem like much, but when you think about it, pictures and memories are all we have of our childhood and some of our loved ones who have passed on.
So everyone might think of someone who would like some pictures that you have and pass them on through email and make their day. I know each time I open up my email and find pictures, it makes mine. And just think what a nice gift this makes and all it cost is a little time to send them. Until next time.....

New Year's Resoution

I haven't made a New Year's Resoution in several years because I never keep them anyway. LOL
But this year I promised myself that I am going to keep my blog and shoppe updated more than I did last year.
It seems that we all have so much going on in our lives that we do not have the time to enjoy what we want. But I am going to do my best this year to schedule my time so that I can do things that I enjoy as well as what is expected. So I hope that you will enjoy visiting my blog as I am adding some new things as well as keeping the old. This is a new year and I intend to take each day as if it were my last and make the most of it. I hope and pray that each one of you has a very prosperous and Happy New Year. May God bless everyone.

Hi everyone. Thought I would share some photos of my 7 year old granddaughter, Sarah, in her first horse show. This child loves all animals but horses is her favorite. She has begged for a horse since the age of 2. So for her birthday she finally got one last year. She now takes lessons and for her first show I think she did pretty good. There were only 6 kids in her age bracket.

For her first contest, walk and trot, she came in 6th. She was thrilled because she got a ribbon in her favorite color, green. LOL

Her second contest, which was trotting ground poles, she won 2nd place and was really excited. I couldn't go watch the show because of extreme allergies to horses and hay, so she called me as soon as she won to let me know that she won 2nd.

Her final contest was a Halloween dress up contest. So she and Buttercup dressed up as flapper girls. I tried to get her to do the flapper girl dance but she wouldn't hear of it.LOL By this time Buttercup was tired of this show, considering this was her first show too, so she dragged Sarah all around the pen. My daughter and Son in law had to go save her. So needless to say since there was only four in this contest, she came in fourth again.

LOLOLOL.

Overall, Sarah had a wonerful day and was very proud of her accomplishments and so were we.
