We were giving a list of 25 different prompts to use to find a picture and write something about each...now with as many photos as I have this was extremely hard for me to do cause so many pictures could fit anyone of the prompts...I hope you enjoy and be sure and check out all of the folks who have joined in...I. A picture of yourself and what you are most proud of accomplishing this year

This was taken in Jan. during our first snow of the year, my MooMoo and Redman can over to visit, they decided to build a snowman and every time Redman would nearly get it built MooMoo would start throwing snowballs at him and mess it up, this time she ran around the house and was going to start throwing more at him when the one she threw went wild and hit the limb above her head and knocked all the snow right down on her..you can see it on her head....it went all down the back of her coat and down her neck...she got so mad she went inside and sit down..we still LOL and tells her she had it coming.
