Happy New Year "2009"

Happy New year Family and Friends,

Jon and I spent New Years Eve in Kentucky with our friends from our Motorcycle Riding Group. We had a good time. Jon went to bed around 1120 in order to get up and go goose hunting the next morning with Jim. Jim stayed up with us until 1:30 and still made it hunting. Teased that when Jon is there he doesn't get any sleep. They usually hunt twice a day. Get up around 4:30, hunt until 10:00 or so, come in take a nap, then go out and hunt again from 3:30-4:50.

Megan spent New Years Eve with her friends from her High School at Auburn University. They had a mini reunion I guess :)...

Still no signs of our Alobar, we have come to believe that he went off and went to sleep somewhere, we miss him very much but have been told this is not uncommon for old animals.

Our Ruby is growing. She came running to me when I called her name yesterday after coming home from Kentucky. She is a piglet though, she sure likes to eat... hmmm guess she is in the right family for that.

I didn't really set any New Years Resolutions. I did say that there are 3 things I hope to have in my home by the end of 2009 though; 1. A new washing machine, ours still works now, but sounds as if it were on it's last leg. 2. a new stove, again mine still works, but I REALLY want a cooktop stove, and think a friend from work is going to give me one if it'll fit in the spot. How lucky is that ? and 3. Gutter guards around the house. It scares me when Jon gets up and down that ladder every year, and then they fill up right after he cleans them out again. So those are it.

I love you all and again wish everyone a WONDERFUL, PROSPEROUS Year!!!
