Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to me!! Yesterday was my  birthday!! I can't believe I'm 39....that's all I'm going to say about that!

When I was at Momma's on Christmas, I went through her pictures and brought some home to scan. I think this may be my very favorite picture of me. I had been in a beauty contest that night and I thought I was so pretty! My sister was in it too....I think I was 4 and she was 2. I didn't win, but she won second runner up. I cried all the way home. I laid in the back window of Daddy's mustang and cried. (Was I ever really small enough to fit up there??) I think Momma thought I cried because I didn't win,  but that wasn't it. It was because my sister got her picture made to go in the paper and I didn't!! So here you see the picture I had made--after I had taken off my pretty dress and gloves and put on my favorite thing to wear, my Daddy's white t-shirt! And yes, that made me happy....just getting my picture made!

Notice the rabbit in my arms? That was a sleeping bag....you unzip it in the back to put your clothes in and it has some kind of wire form or something inside so it kept its shape. Its body is yellow plush with pink satin around her hat and her head is hard plastic. I have been looking for one to replace mine for a long time, so if anyone knows the name brand or anything to help me find one, I would be so happy!

Do any of you have any New Year's Resolutions? Here are mine:

1. Lose Weight (I have this one every single year!)

2. Start Excersing (again)

3. Complete my studio this year

4. Work less--try to take some time just to relax

5. Start remodeling our living room and kitchen

6. Do some volunteer work (starting with transporting the doggies on Saturday!)

I think that should be enough for the whole year....
