This Day

This day, I thankfully accept all of the good things
       that are coming my way.
This day is full of excitement, love, energy, health, and prosperity.
This day, people are calling on me to be of service to them
        and I respond by giving my very best.
This day, I think and practice health in my life,
        refusing to accept anything less than perfect health.
This day, I accept the abundance and prosperity
        that is mine and willing share it with others.
This day, I focus on the future
       and give heed to the lessons of the past.
This day, I spend in total enjoyment of what I do.
This day, I fill with loving thoughts and actions
        toward all other people and myself.
This day, I spend in grateful appreciation of all that is mine.
This day, this hour, this moment is all that I have
       and I choose to use it in celebration!
May the Lord bless you This Day!Adapted from LarryWinget

Where Is Old Man Winter?

I was driving home from church today and really didn't like what I saw!  It is well into November and where is the snow?  If it's going to be cold enough to where a coat every morning and evening, then we should have some beautiful white snow on the ground...not all of this brown, dead stuff!!
There I said my peace! Do you think anyone is listening?
Keith and I happened to be in Lander during the last snow storm, and so we took a quick drive up the Sinks Canyon road and snapped a few pictures. This is how November should look!

You will have to remind me in January how much I wanted the snow

when I start complaining about how much snow we have!

Fickle....??

Wordless Wednesday

Halloween Fun

Well another Halloween has come and gone....Wow....time sure goes by fast anymore!
Quentin had to work on Halloween night and although he had fun making Jack-O-Lantern pizzas and handing out candy to trick-or-treaters it was a really different experience for Keith and I!  No Trick or Treating (although that has been gone for a couple of years now), we didn't even go to the Haunted House in Shoshoni this year!  Keith and I just stayed at home on the couch and ate some homemade chili and cornbread and watched a couple of scary movies!
 I feel so old!!
We did, however, keep up one tradition and that is we have to watch 'Arachnophobia' each Halloween.  We started that tradition about 4 or 5 years ago.  We rented the movie and sat down in the dark to watch it.  All three of us had some plastic spiders hidden and we spent the whole night tossing spiders at each other and just basically freaking each other out!  It was fun and it still is!
I'll never get used to that movie but now I hide the plastic spiders!

I had to dress up for work and as you can see...

I make quite a lovely witch!

 My friend and I tied for 'Best Witch Costume'. 

Quentin went to school as a 'Monk'.

 He wasn't real thrilled about having his picture taken.

Hey...Moms still need to take pictures-even when you are 14!!

Who could this be?

I even made Keith act a little scary.

 There's always some sort of costume in the Halloween Box!
