Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  Our day was filled with two long airplane rides home.  It was a little rough going from 80 degrees to 32 degrees!  We immediately went to buy ice scrapers to put in each vehicle.  Randy broke one last year, LOL.

I will make it a resolution to blog more this year!  along with many many other resolutions, ha.  The first one is to do more yoga!  I didn't do much at all last year, nor did we exercise as much at all this year.  That will be the first thing to change, not to lose weight, but just to become more healthy overall!

What is one of your resolutions?

Fort Smith

If the camera was to be found, we would have zoo pictures, but it's difficult to be that lucky all the time.  Our latest adventure was a work one for Randy to look at all the new sewers and manholes going in Fort Smith.  We wondered through this neat cemetery near the hotel before dusk.

The Unknowns are so sad to me.  It was neat seeing all the different crosses and signs at the top of the stones too, the Methodist Cross, and a few others I couldn't recognize.  



It will be neat looking these up. The Cross with a heart is a mystery.  Only one we saw didn't have anything at the top.

Randy Googled a few important ones to play seek and find.  He found James McQueen McIntosh on Findagrave.com.  This Civil War Confederate Brigadier General took command of the First Brigade after General McCulloch was killed and held his position for 15 minutes before being shot in the same location. 

Today, we woke up and saw the flag at half mass.

This was such a rare occasion it had to be recorded...  I beat Randy in something - Shuffleboard!!

Engagement Photo Preview

       

We had a great time on our Sunday Funday Date when our photographer, Ryan O'Dowd, came along with us!!  One thing we had so much fun doing, we did six times to get the right picture.  Thank goodness it turned out and is one of our favourite pictures!!

This is another one we LOVE!!  It was way harder to get in that tree than we anticipated, but we were of course up for the task.  Ryan said it was a first for him.

 At the end of the day, we're just two little specs living a life filled with love!!
