Weekend Wrap Up!

I hope everyone started the new year off with a bang!! Oh its been eventful so far for me, but that's a day in the life of "ME".

This photo was taken on New Years day at the farm that my grandmother and her family grew up on. The house is over 100 years old and my sisters and I grew up going there for family gatherings, Easter egg hunts, fishing, and other fun country activities. This farm holds so many fun memories for me and it is so neat to see my kids and my sisters kids enjoying it like we used too. For as long as I can remember there has been a tire swing there and they had so much fun playing on that thing!!

The rest of the weekend was spent readying my dad's store for opening day. Today, as a matter of fact. All three of my sisters and their husbands and kids and mom and dad worked vigourously pricing things, learning the secrets of The Cock of The Walk, washing dishes and sampling all of the goodies. I am so excited about this endeavor and so proud of him for going in a very different direction than he is used too.

Our nights were spent trying to relax and playing games, but all of the competiveness kept creeping in. Many, many laughs were shared and we all made fools of ourselves. If you ever want to laugh hysterically and get people out of their comfort zone, play CRANIUM!

I look forward to spending time with family and friends in the new year! It's what makes my crazy world go round!!
