Christmas Tree the old fashion way

This is a picture of us getting our Christmas tree this year. My DH is driving I'm behind him and a good friend and his grandson are in the side car. The tree is strapped on to the trunk. Picture isn't the best but it sure is fun to see everyone who's path you cross smile. Oh yea there is bells on the bike so every time it hits a bump it jingles. We have been doing this for about 10 years. We used to take my children all 5. Now they are all grown and having families of their own. Soon the Grands will join Nana and Papa on the annual Christmas tree ride.

2009

Happy New Year to all!!!!!
2008 left with a BANG and 2009 looks to be even more exciting. With my first Grand being born on October 1st life was changed. Brayden is such a joy and has a wonderful mommy and daddy. Brayden's dad will deploy on January 10 to join his 2 older brothers on active duty. My oldest daughter and her husband will be joined by Grand number 2 sometime late Febuary. Grands 3 and 4 will arrive in early May when my youngest daughter gives birth. This along with a mini-marathon in May that I will do with my mother and sister and other relatives. Goes to prove that 2009 will be as intersting as 2008. I look forward to spending more time with my husband , grands and time in my studio.
