Yeah: we got snow here in Gatlinburg, TN on Sunday and Monday. It’s still hanging around some and I love it. It’s so beautiful. The time share where we’re staying has a creek right behind it and trees and woods all arond it and the snow glistening on it is so beautiful! My winter is complete; I got some snow.

Things are going well. We went to the Dixie Stampede on Sat. 01/17/09 and had a great time. You had to eat with your hands! We were separated into the “south” and the “north” and we had to cheer for our “army” and riders. It’s such a good show and I enjoyed it so much. We were on the “south” side but we lost.   :(  Oh, well it was fun and the horses that did the tricks and the show were absolutely gorgeous. The mc’s horse was pure white; not a speck of gray for black on it anywhere. It was great fun.

We met our youngest daughter and some of her friends for lunch on Sunday. She was in Gatlinburg as well for a youth convention. It was nice to see her before she went home. She’s spending the rest of the week with her aunt and uncle. I’m sure she’s having a blast.

We watched the inaugaration yesterday; very historic moment. The crowd was unbelievable! We spent the rest of the day yesterday just being lazy since the roads were bad. It was nice.

We head home on Friday. it’s been such a good week. We needed some time just the hubby and me and this was perfect.

Eating has gone well. I’ve eaten some things that I normally don’t eat but I’m also exercising my 3 times for 30 minutes and making sure I get my daily required intake of fruits and veggies. All and all, I feel that I’m doing well.

Hope all is well for everyone. Have a great day!
