Jan 12th, Jared has braces put on for the second time, 2 more years and he should be perfect.

This pic was on my facebook and my cousin commented on the dog - it was her parents dog a long time ago. My sister, me and our brother with Cher the St. Bernard. In the back is my mom. Sometime around 1973I spend many hours here. Love the color!

I came across this photo in an email from December. I love the red, white and blue lit trees, and I'm saving it for next year.
