Sis In Law and Marshall, and Mt. Sights

 I have my laptop back! YAY!!! With that, I am sharing with you more Appalachian Mt. pics of  my trip.  My sis in law and her  babe, Marshall. Oh my, James from the venue would be crazy about these. These are on the property next to Ray and Lori's. Ray and Lori own about 13 acres in the mts. But like 1/2 of my property is wooded with no up keep, so  is theirs. Only on the other  side of the creek, across from the cabin, there is a road, at least that is  what the mt. people call it. It goes straight up a hill, most of that property is not only wooded, its straight up. Seriously, it don't look straight up  in this pic, but it is, it's also  one lane. Even though it is on  their property, there are three homes on the top that have to use this road to come and go. Going up this mt. I was not excited, it is narrow, right on the side of the hill and a hook turn as you are still  trying to go UP!  I did not take pics up there but  their is a one room structure up  there, foundati

 Not only did I head back to my old stomping grounds for James and  Julie's cookout. I also went  to my brothers and picked up  my laptop! Yay....I have a smaller one I have been using but I prefer the  larger ones, so I am happy blogging today! At the venue, I am sure you  remember that we always do a  normal pic or two but then  we always do a silly one. Aric and I kissed Gigi in this pic. Gigi is James and Julies babe. They lost my favorite girl  a few months ago. Rain Drop was the sweetest and she was also  from the same line of blood that Gigi is, but she was a lot older. Gigi is four and  Rain was 14, which is amazing  for a larger dog.  After Misty and I did our sleep in on the couch yesterday, after I got up I found her chilling under the tree. Misty has always been drawn to  the Christmas tree but more so now. She loves to chew on the  wired branches.  Then this morning, Lily was doing it also. Speaking of which, Terry, I  have some questions about Lily, and I am going to

Cute little family,  waiting on the fourth to  arrive. Look at sassy Evie with her hand on her hip. Hannah opened the gift I  brought and held it up for everyone to see. Then she showed Brayden. They got a little of everything. For sure I can say  that little Beckham will be a really well dressed and stylish little man. He got a lot of clothes. Can't wait to hold baby Beckham. Sunday came and I had an  invite to the venue for a hotdog cookout. I left there a yr this month when Julie had a going away for me. I stopped in one day when I was out there but this is the first get together I have attended. It was GREAT seeing everyone. Ragged strange bunch of good folks. Course, left to right bottom row is  James, Julie, Krystal, Aric, Gigi, me Tammy and Clint. Left to right top row is oops, forgot his name. Vic, Jerry, Mitzi, Lisa, Wayne and I don't know this woman, her name was Holly and that baby was the sweetest. This next pic, I sort of need to set this story up for you. For year

Since 1992 I have had a beautiful angel on the top of my tree. Got her when I sold Christmas Around the World.  But, this year she is not  lighting up. I was going to change the bulbs but those are all different these days and they will not set in  the sockets correctly. So, after all that time, she is staying in the box and  I bought a star on Friday. Other than a couple of things I am making, I am done with  the Christmas decor. Cabins are done.  They are simple, yet it  adds something.  Once upon a time I had spoon rest, cookie jar and other Christmas decor fot the kitchen but over the  years I gave most of that stuff to Amber.... So this is the first in years that  I have worked on the kitchen. Friday night lovin' for mom. Saturday afternoon I went to baby Beckhams baby shower. My painting was a big hit. I took this next pic at the shower,  its Amber (my daughter) and her granddaughter, Evie.  Don't Evie look so cute? Sort of cool temps Sat. but a beautiful ride home after
