Another Wintery Day in Florida!

Sunday in December at the Park

Goosey see...Goosey do!

Nathan gets the last bite

No, Lana gets the last bite...

Fooled them...squirrel finished it off!

Merry Miller's Mickey, Manatee, Tree huggen, Swan sailing Christmas!

Family Fun

OOPS! Noah was with the group, just behind a
the elbow of a Lego Girl.

"Eli may be quicker going down the slide,
but I am quicker at sitting on his head!"

I loved having my sister,Kathy & her family spend time
with us. Seens like I've never lived in a convenient place
for frequent visits from family...so it was super special.

Favorite Ornament

This is it! My favorite ornament stays put,
just like my Dad required at his home.
Can't find all the SWA ornaments,
blaming it on the 2 moves in 2 yrs.
When I do, they may stay put!

Above many door frames, in our family,
you will find a Santa year round.
"Already decorated for Christmas"
Dad would say.

**Extra**

If you go to Ikea with Morgandy,
this is where you will find her.

Funniest Things...

Last night as Marcus was winning big against my good hands of cards. Instead of getting hugely frustrated, "Let me call you Sweetheart" popped into my mind.
So, then & there, I started singing it to Marc. Looking puzzled, I told him that my Dad use to sing it regularly while playing his guitar.
Couldn't get that memory off my mind, as well as the other songs he sang, at night time, on the front porch. (Almost sounds like the Walton's doesn't it.)

I even googled the song and found lots of people singing it...but not like my Dad.
He also sang: The Preach Man went a huntin...
You get a line & I get a pole honey...
OKLAHOMA...( which my kids always sang as we entered the
promise land)
Deep in the Heart of Texas....

and so many more songs.
funny to have that memory at that time.
-----------------
So decided to upgrade my moisturizer to anti-wrinkle nutrients Olay
thinking that I got to much on my hand to apply, I read the directions...

"Apply liberally on face & neck as often as necessary each day"

Appears they have an easy out if it doesn't work.

There is a funny debate around here about my comment being a pun.
What do you think?

Ringing The Bell

Got a call from Lana this week. "Mom, I'm ringing the bell at
Walmart this Saturday." she said.
This morning she called to say, "I'm sick, the wind chill
is 15 and I'm ringing the bell for Salvation Army."
Are We surprised? Not really! Somehow, I bet her bell
ringing, had a unique flavor to it.
That's our Lana! Way to Go!

(just wanted to share this random pic of Lana-Bear)
Can you guess where she is?

One way to celebrate Morgandy, is signing her name
on a donation card. So, Morgandy, your name is here &
there around Orlando!

As we get into the holiday spirit, I hope you enjoy the
opportunities to give.
