Happy New Year to all and hope you all have a great year. It is hard to believe that 2008 is history and we are on to 2009. I am pretty sure I never thought I would see the year 2000 back in the 1970's. That was of course a million years away and now we are already 9 years into it.
The kids were kind enough to sit still for long enough to get a pic with Omie and Opie. I will treasure these pics forever because before long they won't fit on our laps anymore.
Mom came over for lunch on Christmas day and I got a pic of her and me together in front of my tree. I think that is the first time I have ever done that. The next picture is of Oma Reeh and Rena in front of the Norfork Pine they decorated together for mom's Christmas tree. It looked really cute.
After Christmas we got invited to Corrine and JR's ranch in Menard for New Year's Eve. That was different and fun. We took our camper along and since we were so close and had a few days off we went to South Llano State Park for a few days. The weather was perfect and we were even able to have a campfire one night since the park did not have a burn ban. We always like to go to the bird blinds they have there and were lucky enough to see a bluejay while we were there. I was hoping to see a painted bunting, but they don't show up until April. It was nice to get away for a little bit and just do nothing. It will be a while before we will be able to do that again. Larry's sub is having surgery so I don't know how many Sat. he will have to work. 
The Mason Stockshow is this weekend so we will be going to Mason to watch Ashlyn and Colten show their hogs. Hope they do well, but if not that is okay, too. Anyway, hope the new year brings lots of good things to all of your lives and my God bless all of you.
