Lady P Shameful Moments

There once was a dog named Lady P. 

She had such a large family, she was never free! 

At the end of a day, she thought rest would come her way. 

so she would just lay.

Till the next visitor would come and bother her.

Season's Greeting and a Big Thank You!

This year the theme for our Christmas Tree is American Pride. 

In honor of the ones before and after, the ones who are serving now with my brother this  Christmas season over sea's. 

I am so proud of him! 

While he support's his team over there he manages to keep up with his nieces and nephew back home. 

I am in ah of him and the rest who came before and after. Their dedication is what gives our nation the blessings it has. 

Many prayers to their families and friends who support them!
