Sunday Dec. 17 2006

This time of year I usually reflect back on Christmases past. I remember one in particular where I got that Schwin bike and of course had to take it out for a test ride that day.Well I came from New England and there was probably 6 inches of snow on the ground at the time.


The sidewalks were plowed but a little icy. You can see where I'm going with this,bike and I got banged up pretty good on that little excusion.And I had been told "Don't ride your bike till the snow melts" But who listens at that age! Now that I'm older I do the same thing with my motorcycle without the snow!!

I remember my children at the early years.opening their presents one after the other and then spending more time with the boxes they came in..go figure! And no matter how organized I was about getting all that wrapping paper collected and put in the trash bag,there were always parts missing from something. What a contrast..trash bag and new presents side by side.

Talk about a camera bug! He saw me get out camera and just kind of laid back and said"I'm ready"

I'm glad he only likes my bed during day because he is getting to big for me to fight him for the covers!!
