Shadow gets a new do!!!

This is our little Shadow's birth mom Evelyn Inga giving him his first real hair cut.

Gary Inga is his birth father. I cannot believe how excited he was to see them both, he totally remembered them and his mom and sister.

I have been Tagged

I was Tagged by Heatherlyn, and since I am in no way the writter she is, nor am I very introspective, I wondered how I could come up with 7 things to tell about myself, but I will give it a try.

1. I am a Biblioholic,that is a person with a habitual longing to purchase, read, store, admire, and consume books in excess. I just don't read fast enough!


2. I love to paint my Easter Rocks, it gives me great pleasure to hand them to my loved ones, and see them pleased to have them.


3. I think "A Tea Party is a spa for a woman's soul "and I love to share that experience with my girls, and granddaughters.


4.In my heart of hearts I am just a cow girl, I loved my horse, and miss the yummy smell of her, she "Lady" was my best friend growing up, I miss her still, I wish I could have a horse now. I love to kiss them on the mouth, well face !


5. One of my biggest pet peevs is a toilet seat cover that will not stay on, what is up with that? You would think they could come up with one .


6. I have a passion for learning the "deep think", kinds of things, I love fringy things and far out trains of thought.


7.My ideal evening would be to be in my home that is clean, organized, soft music playing, candles burning, in my jammies ,surrounded by my 3 dogs, all of us covered in a cozy blanket, in a comfy chair reading a book. A fire place would also be nice in this pipe dream too.


8. I collect Tea Pots, and figureins that have to do with books or someone reading a book.


9. Edward or Drover???? Yes !!! I want them both !!!! Is that wrong?

10. Not to many things give me more joy than when I take a good picture, I love photography!!!

I have read all the Twilight books, they are haunting, in that you cannot get them (well Edward) out of your mind, I loved the story, and loved the movie, I am anxious to get the dvd so I can watch it over and over !!! Every woman needs a nice, friendly,Vampire around the house....I think so!

These are our life's Gems! I just sit and stare at this picture, and it makes me cry, I am so very proud of each and every one of these people, that I have the privilege of sharing my life's journey with, they are each wonderful, sons,daughters, wives, husbands, mothers and fathers, they are all that "Our Father" could ask them to be, each unique and special in their own way. And of course they will be taking care of us in our OLD AGE!!!! LOL I love you all
