More December icy pictures

Nice Christmas
We had a delightful Christmas and are very thankful to the Lord for His love to us.
We had some good friends over and Tom fixed a yummy brisket, like uncle Darrell does, with the Clauds BBQ sauce from Albuquerque. It always turns out really good. I actually made an apple and pumpkin pie and chocolate chip cookies the day before. Everything turned out really nice, and I didn't even take any pictures of our spread. :( Maybe next time I'll remember?? The vegetable medley with, little red potatoes, asparagus, zucchini, red onion, red & yellow bell pepper, with a little olive oil and salt & pepper turned out pretty good, along with the scalloped potatoes, a couple wonderful salads. Yummmy! Needless to say, most of us ate to much. :)
Linda, my friend and I went driving around and looked at some beautiful Christmas lights after we pulled ourselves away from the table and got things cleaned up. I'll try to post some of the pictures that turned out.

Catcing up!
We wish all of you a very Blessed Christmas and a very Happy New Year!!
You can check out the pictures on this blog, from the last year to see a little of what we've been doing.
Winter has set in now and will be with us for a while. Over the last month we have gotten about 30 inches of snow and has been very cold, about zero to 15 above. Needless to say I haven't done much walking this winter.
I've been working extra hours to cover my co-worker who was on vacation for a couple weeks, and my boss leaves Monday for a month, so I'll be holding down the fort for them again, until Jan. 18th when they get back. Then...I'm taking off on vacation. Going to Albuquerque, to see family, then on to Phoenix to see more family and get some natural beautiful vitamin D.
Tom is keeping busy at his same job he's had for the past 20 years, with the building supply company. He's looking forward to the day when he won't have to "punch a clock" for someone else. He still loves his boat, fishing, 4 wheeling and he's a great cook. I'm so thankful he likes to cook.
Vaughn is staying with us for a while, until he gets his feet back on the ground. He is still working nights at Target, and we're thankful for that. It's been nice to have him here.
Angel is still a good friend (that doesn't talk back) and walking partner, when it's not so cold. She's always ready to go anytime, and anywhere.
So far, we have all been able to stay healthy. The Shaklee products give me the energy I need to keep going and keeps my immune system up. Now, I'm entering a new phase in my life that requires more help so the extra vitamin D, mood lift, Omega 3, and other natural vitamins, all work together, to help me through these LONG winters up here. I need all the help I can get.
We have a new web site that I'm excited about. Check it out @ http://nogle.myshaklee.com
Lots of cool, short video's and good information.

In Aug. I got to got to go to King Salmon, Ak. to visit our good friends, Mike & Karleen. We flew over Mt. Readout-one of the active volcanoes here in Alaska.
We also got to go fishing and four wheeling. The first silver salmon I caught was about 12-15 lbs. and had bear claw marks on his back. He barely got away once from the bear, but didn't make it away from the mighty fishermen (fisher woman) of Alaska. HA!! I had a great guide who showed me how and where to throw the line, where the big ones were. He was right. What a guy!
Mike didn't tell Karleen that I was coming out, so it was a total "surprise" to her. We had a great time.
Our neighbor got a bunny rabbit this summer and 3 chickens. Between the bunny, chicken, and the squirrel it kept Angel pretty occupied. She gets so intense, especially when she see's or hears the squirrel. She's finally become friends with the bunnies, and the chickens are kept inside their own little house with a heat lamp, so they don't freeze. I hope they make it through the winter.
We'll find out in a few more months.
The fireweed was beautiful also this year. I tried to be a little creative and catch one of the bees on it.
Tom finally helped me put all the pictures in a different file so I can actually find them when I want to now, so I thought I would add a few more and get you caught up a little. We had a beautiful summer and very nice long fall, almost through Oct. before things changed to much. I think this Cheni Lake is so pretty, especially in the fall. There were a few fishermen out there in the little float boats and a canoe. It was just delightful.
