Sunday night after church has been pizza night with us since the girls were in high school. It's a great tradition, and the boys ask about it all week.

"My Dad Rocks"
My 5 awesome grandkids all wearing their "My Dad Rocks" t-shirt, can't really see it. You have to be fast when trying to get a picture of all 5 at once.

I have donated blood since I was in High School. As of today it has been 117 pints, and if I figure right that is 14.5 gallons. Pretty painless and well worth it. Try it! (at least once)

Jonas wanted to put together this puzzle and I was suprised at how many pieces he knew to put in.

Today Noah's Ark did an appreciation reception for Tamara. It was so nice of them. She did an awesome job at the daycare, not just as the director, but most of loving the kids and caring for their families. That's my girl!

Jake is at his best playing the Wii. I wish I could have put all the pictures I had taken of him playing, the facial expressions and his actions. Just so cute!

Today was an awesome day!!!! Bruce and I headed to Albuquerque to see a Dr. Hansen up there, which I thought was gonna do a nerve block on a nerve in my back. After speaking to him for about 30 mintues and after he gave me a good examination he decided to do a procedure on my Periformis muscle, (Bruce mentioned this to him, and we learned of this from Terry Todd, here in Roswell) which is the muscle which lies next to the siatica nerve. The problem with periformis symdrome is that the muscle gets inflamed and pushes on the nerve and causes pain. This is hard to determine as the problem. He went in and gave me a local and then inserted anti-inflamatory medicine and a steroid on the muscle to relax it. This will take a few days to react, but we are praying that this is it. It was just so awesome that he was open to this and didn't just try the same thing over again and he actually spent time with me.
The picture below is of the Sandia mountains in Albuquerque. They were so beautiful with just a slight dusting of snow on them. Wow, New Mexico is a beautiful state.

We spent Saturday and Sunday at the cabin in the mountains. As you can see from one picture the guys were ready to get out and play in the snow. On Sunday the big guys went skiing/snow boarding. They had a blast, the stories never end. Tamara and Jessica took the little boys down to play at the playground at the campgrounds. Always fun to be with them.

It's the middle of pecan harvest, and has been going strong for about a week or more now with no rain/snow. It would be nice if it stayed that way for about another week so we could get it done.
This is the shaker, really cool to watch. Each tree has to be shook, then the process begins.
I know what a weird picture for the picture of the day, but this is a big part of my life.
