Straight From The Horses Mouth

Howdy Ya'll,

Happy New Year to all! My computer is acting up so let's see if I can get this done.

First off, what a great Christmas party we had! A lot of food, fun games, fellowship and Santa stopped by. It was really funny to see how the older ones could keep up with all the young people (Eveline). I really enjoyed watching everyone get on the floor and try to get the candy in his or her mouth. I hope someone got good pictures! It was good to see Tom and ShaSha, the Greens and Howells. We have missed you guys.

Laura as always you did a great job picking out awards!

Wasn't Christmas beautiful with all that snow? I heard Bayleigh and her dad made a snowman. I hope everyone had a good time with their family. By the way, did you make your New Year's resolution?

Let's don't forget the club meeting on the January 14th at 7 p.m. Please keep the Anderson's in your thoughts and prayers as most of you know they had a house fire right before Christmas.
Also, we send our condolences to the Thach girls, Melissa & Caryn, as they have lost their mother Judy to cancer.

The Fort Worth Stock Show is just around the corner! The parade will be January 16 with line up starting at 9AM at La Grave Field. Those that will be riding in the parade and the grand entries, please make sure to wear the following: blue jeans, white shirts, black felt hats and red or black jackets. The horses will need the black & red blanket and the red polo wraps on the front legs. Right now the weather is showing 35/55 with a chance of rain but of course it is Texas and it can change in a blink of an eye!

Happy Birthday to all you January babies!!!!

Robin
