Day 14

Why do they call this a Christmas Cactus?
Christmas is over and this thing is blooming like crazy.



I guess it's suppose to be like a Poinsettia flower they don't really bloom during the winter months. They bloom in July. I know Grandma planted one and it makes me ready for Christmas in July when I see it bloom. I need to remember to water that too. We are suppose to have rain all next week, I might be off the hook for watering for a while.

Day 13 - 365 project

A Little Rain

We got a little rain this morning



Amazing what a little water will bring out. I still can't believe that these are blooming already. The little beehive that is in the neighbors tree are going to be busy.

Day 12 - 365 Project

Here are pictures of 2 bad ass Grandma's



This is Grandma Garlick taken last Christmas 2008. She was one tough cookie and I loved the fact that she would never have rolled her eyes at me for calling her a bad ass granny.



This is my great grandma Crook. She was one tough cookie. I remember the last summer before she died, I was so happy that I was almost as tall as she was, finally someone my size. I need to find a picture of her to post before she started to shrink, when I saw it I had no idea who that women was because I had never seen her that way. She was a bad ass just because she lived her life in Star Valley and dealt with all the snow for years without running water or indoor bathrooms or force heating.



Founded it!! This is a picture of Great Grandpa and Great Grandma Crook in their younger years.

Day 11 - 365 project

I was going through my pictures and I found this cool picture of when we were in TN last year and thought what the heck. I like the loan leaf on the tree, it wasn't there much longer because the wind and the rain started.

I still can't believe that the Smokey mountains are the highest point on the East Coast, blows my mind that the east coast doesn't have mountains like we do on the west coast. Thats why west coast people are cooler then east coast people!!!

Day 10 - 365 Project

Family Calendars


Here is the front page of the family calendars that Thalea and I have been doing the past 3 years for both sides of our family. Now nobody has a reason to forget someone's birthday or anniversary. The only issue now is how old we all are and how long we've all been married.

Day 9 - 365 Project

I didn't edit this picture and clean it up at all, so you get the car door frame and all with this picture.



I knew I needed some new pictures and my shoulder has been killing me so I was too lazy to get out of the car but you can at least see Catalina out there in the haze.

Day 8 -365

Self portrait of my shadow.



Can't post a beach picture even if it's from October with out posting the cool Aunt with her nephews picture.
