Happy New Year!!!!!!

Happy New Year all!!!!!!! I must admit 2008 was a pretty great year! And I'm so excited to see what 2009 brings! My New Years eve was spent working a roping and then cuddling up to a pretty amazing man to watch the ball drop and drink a glass of champagne. Then it was off to bed to get up early in the morning. I was very fortunate in 2008 to discover I was good at,and really enjoy, working ropings! It has provided an opportunity for me take make some extra cash and 2009 seems very promising. I am going to start working for a large roping organization and I couldn't be more excited!!!!!! So I had to wake up early January 1st to work a roping. The day was over pretty quick. I was done by 2:30 and heading over to another roping....this time for fun, food, and relaxation. What a great start to what is going to be a great year!!!!!! I can feel it! Pistol, Stetson and Tater are all doing very well!!!!!

On January 3rd the family, my friend Nicole, and I went to my sisters drag racing banquet. She won a plaque for taking 3rd place in the High School division! I am so proud of her!!!!!

I know...I kinda do things out of order. Christmas was great! My boyfriend had a headstall and spur straps custom made for me (and Pistol). It is soooooo pretty!!!!! My family is all happy and healthy! It was a good end to a good year!

I made some really great friends this year. I may have said it before but as I get older I realize the importance of girl friends, and I am so lucky I have met some great girls I can call friends!

Now I normally don't make new years resolutions....mainly because I just can't stick to them. But I made one this year, I figure it should be easy enough. So far so good! My resloution is to take more pictures (really not a problem) and actually print them up and frame them! It's working so far :)

I'll keep you posted as the year goes on!

Here are some pictures....
