Gobble Gobble Ho Ho Ho

Hi Everyone
Scored a new and interesting photo of J & I from a big benefit I put on for work earlier this month. The picture is originally in color but had this weird light thing going through it, I edited it some and turned it to black and white and thought it was fun, you can still see the light streaking through but I still like it!
Havn't been able to upload new pictures lately because I can't upload the new camera to the computer. A new computer is in the works for the new year so hopefully this won't be a problem for too much longer. Guess we could still use the old camera...hmmm.
Well anyway this was from my work camera so I was able to email it home.



Hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving! We had four, much needed and well deserved, days of relaxation and fun!
Winter has finally arrived, the bitter wind and ice is upon us. The good snow for skiing isn't here yet, but we are hoping to participate in our favorite winter time activity for J's birthday in a couple weeks, keep your fingers crossed!
The Christmas spirit is starting to fill me up, but it has been hard with all this commercialization starting now well before turkey day, it just is not right. Anyway, we decided to make a Christmas village and are having fun making it come to life! So wherever you are and whatever you are doing we wish you all a safe, warm and fun holiday season!

Diamonds for the pipe gods

I did the unthinkable. Something that for four and a half years I was so afraid of doing. And I finally went ahead and did it. I lost my engagement ring. Yep. Gone forever, down the drain, perhaps on a short or a long journey to its resting place.
Almost lost the wedding band too. That would have been more traumatic, but maybe its blessedness is what helped it to get caught in the drain before hittin the pipes.
I suspect it may have been little Stubbers that assisted me in my loss but I am not positive and I take full responsibility anyway, but man it sucks. I may be able to get the same ring from the designers but I won't know until they come back from vacation in January. I don't want a different ring, I tried on hundreds before and this is my ring. I hope it works out. Thank goodness for insurance, otherwise I would be totally devastated! I am going back to never taking them off again that is for sure!
