It's Been A While

I know it's been a while since my last post. I don't know why it's harder and harder to sit down at the computer and type. Life just gets busier, doesn't it? Hmm.

So, this post will mostly just be a ton of photos to catch up on what we've been doing to get through the winter. I don't mind the snow. I don't terribly mind the temps (it hasn't been so bad this year). But, the darkness is definitely a force to overcome. When it wasn't even getting light outside until 11:00 a.m., I was struggling to get the day started. And when we finally did get moving, it was almost dark again. It took a lot of effort to get out and about. And some days we didn't make it. Ha. But there's been a change! It is 5:30 p.m. right now as I type this and it is still technically light outside! Woohoo! This is doing wonders for my attitude. The days are thankfully getting longer here.


I decided at the beginning of the year that I would do a 365 day challenge...to take a picture every day for a year. Yeah, what was I thinking? I haven't been able to follow through on a commitment like that since...ever?! Lol. I made it through January with only a couple of days missed, but then I just stopped altogether. My reason for starting it was because I wanted to really, finally, for the millionth time, learn how to use my camera on manual settings. Well, maybe next year. Or maybe I should be more realistic in goal setting. Maybe a 30 day challenge or a week long challenge would be better. Anyway, a lot of these pics were from the challenge that I mostly took on the automatic setting of my camera or with my phone! Go Figure!

B-man is getting his uniform ready to take an updated DA photo.
He was showing Boo and Bit all of his awards.
I got a little teary. I'm so proud of B-man.

Bowling, bowling, bowling...


Running back to look at the TV screen to see the crazy graphics.

She loved it too.
She mostly loved the bowling tap shoes!
