Odd's and end's of this year

Yeah that's a buffalo. Friends of mine own these amazing beast.

This is Gibbs. My parents lab. Let me just say I had asked my mom why they didn't have one more kid so I could of had a little brother or sister. Well when they got him she called and told me I had a new little baby brother with fur & four legs.........LOL! I have to say he's such a wonderful dog. He's a perfect fit for my parents.

These mums were just amazing looking. Had to take the picture. Such color and they were huge! I hope everyone enjoys my random shots as much as I do. You just have to get out there in this big world and find something you love to do. I found photography. Always liked it but now I loved it. I just see the world a different way through my lens. Enjoy :)

Well we had a great year of camping. I didn't take too many pictures this year. Olny due to me being so sick all summer. So next camping season I will make up for the lack of pictures. Over all we had another great fun filled year with camping.

Just glad I was here to see it all.

Seth running Cross Country for the first time. He said he'd rather play soccer....hahaha! So back to soccer we go for him.

Hope everyone enjoys the pictures. I love taking the pictures. But most of all I love watching my kids. I hope I've put excellent values in them. I just love my kids. Now Let's see if I can get some pictures of Nicholas & Adam riding their dirt bikes. That will have to wait till spring because dirt bike season in over with. That should be something different to take pictures of. We'll see :)

Just fun & an update :)

Well Soccer and Cross Country are over. Darn! Just glad I didn't have chemo during soccer this year. Made it so much easier. Jory got his letter so we'll get his letterman's jacket soon.

Now we're getting ready to do some small amount of traveling. Will be on chemo but will travel in between it. Not going to let the cancer stop me from going to see friends. It will be so nice to just go see friends & family. Steve doesn't know I got tickets to go see Eddie.....hehehehe! It's his christmas present.

Will have lots of pictures to show when we get done doing our thing. So everyone have a great day. Will update again soon......Oh doctor said the chemo is working well :) YAY!

More chemo

Well I had 6wks off of chemo due to fluid around my heart. Spent 5 days in ICU. They were so sweet to me on that floor. Couldn't ask for better nurses. Chemo and ICU nurses are angles!

So had chemo twice this month. My mom took me to my chemo. First time for her. She did pretty good. I was worried it would be too much on her. Nope she did great. But there was this lady there felt bad for her. It was all new to her. So she kept talking to my mom. The lady was scared. So understandable. She (the lady) did good.

So yesterday was my second day back. The lady was there and asked "Where's Gracie" too cute. Mom did not go this time. I had my super friend Angie go with me. We had lots of things to catch up on. Had a great time with her. To me chemo is never sad or boring. I enjoy it. Yes as odd as that sounds I do enjoy it or the place. The place is my second home. Very well taken care of there. Do miss my girls from the infusion center at the hospital. Their super over there too. These people and places you go becomes your new best friends and your new home. You see them more than you see your friends and sometimes your family. But nothing is better than family :)

So I'm just enjoying the day. Little cloudy but hey it's a new day a new adventure. You just have to be thankful your here and alive :)

Everyone enjoy life cause younever know it will be your last :)

p.s.

just so you all know the chemo is working! YAY!

Ah it's Soccer season again!

Just a few pictures of Jory playing Varsity...yay!
