the Great White Bird

Tom has been home sick the past couple of days...during one of his outings to the mail box he spotted a very large white bird in the field across the street. He looked at it thru the binoculars and the bird turned and looked toward his direction and he could see the red eyes.....ooooh...an albino Great Blue Heron?

Happy New Year!

The past couple of weeks have been crazy and I'm finally getting caught up with things around the house and in my blog!

We hosted a get-together on New Year's Eve and had a some friends over for games and snacks. One family brought their wii - the guys played video games...

The ladies played Texas Hold'em....

Our gambling instructor was Stephanie, who is the daughter of our friends Steve & Sally. She was home for Christmas break and is pretty good at this Texas Hold'em game. Now we know what college students do for fun!
