For my first entry into the Mommytography 365 Project, I’ve taken a picture of a tissue box and meds. I’m really sick. Although, I went to the doc in a box yesterday, I feel even worse today. These meds don’t seem to be touching whatever it is I’ve got. Please pray I start feeling better before Monday…gotta go back to work.
Rob’s cousin, Candi, is part of the team for Mommytography this year. For the past few years, I’ve really enjoyed seeing her posts, and I’ve tried the last few years on flickr to do a 365 project. I decided to jump on this and see how it goes. I’d love to hear you comments about my pics.
I just went through my flickr pics and picked a random pic from each month for this past year.

Rob and I DVR everything.
On Christmas Eve, Rob’s Dad and Step-Mom arrived. I decided to do a nice meal and make it something a little more traditional. So I made a homemade marinaded/injected for a ham with green beans and pecan praline sweet potatoes. It was SO yum!
Christmas morning after Santa dropped by!
Opening presents
TV Boy with his new, shiny trombone. He was very excited!
Look you can see my reflection!
Christmas Day snacks!
Making Christmas dinner!
After dinner I got on facebook and noticed someone who doesn’t live to far said that it was snowing! Went outside and here’s what we saw!
The day after Christmas we went over toCallaway Gardens for Fantasy in Lights.
We had a really great time with Rob’s Dad and Pam.
A couple days after Christmas we went up to see Maria and fam. I only managed to get a pic of 2 out of the 3 kids.
Here’s hoping that your Christmas is full of love, laughter, good food, and fun!

With Christmas approaching I thought I would post this pics I scanned on one of my scanning sprees. I wished I had more pictures of me with Santa and you never know, the more I go through old pics from Grandmother’s house, I may come up with more.
How priceless is this one? Me, I supposed this was my first Christmas 1975 with the Sleeping Santa! I just laugh every time I look at this one.
This one, well I’m not having anything to do with this rosy cheeked guy. “Let me down!”
Here I am at Monnig’s after having breakfast with Santa.
And this one, well I’m all dressed up at a family Christmas party. Home from college for the holidays.
So do you have any old pics with Santa? I’d love to see.
Haven’t done 10 on Tuesday in a long time, but you know writing lists really is one of the easiest ways to write.
