I had a camera once...

and I really, really loved it!  I mean her.  I mean it.  I tried to be appreciative and grateful of it's abilities and efforts in working so well and so hard for me for all these years.  She was our first big purchase together...Lee and I were not yet married.  Nonetheless, she has captured so many wonderful memories of ours over the past few years.  I really miss her.  She...yes, she, was a valued part of our family and went EVERYWHERE with us!  I realize that she is not as big and fancy as some...and some may say just a little point and shoot, but she NEVER let us down.  She captured so many of our memories beautifully and I pray that she finds her way home and into my arms soon.  Our holidays and family memories will never be the same without her.

Where, oh where did you go on November 24th, after capturing so many wonderful memories of our first Thanksgiving here?  We love you and miss you and home you come home soon.

Bundling Up!

I woke up around 3:00 am last night to the sound of sporadic rain drops pelting the window by my bed with quite force and gusts of wind blowing the tree outside the house so that the limbs were hitting the roof.  Our first cold front of the season has arrived!  Gage and I both slept in a little late and as soon as he finished breakfast, we both bundled up to go and feed horses.  I HAD to, of course, take a bunch of pictures of the first time he had a jacket, hat and gloves on!  I may have overdone it a little, seeing that he only went from the house to the truck and back, but we are now prepared and have the routine down for our next outdoor adventure in the cold!!!

Our happy boy!
