Today we headed off to Lewistown to do Grams hair. But first we stopped in Stanford to chat with my Dad- Bob wanted to talk with him about the fire that my Dad and Lea went out on Saturday early morning. The fire burnt almost 20, ooo acres in less than 12 hrs. Holy moley, the wind was screamin! My dad is on the volunteer fire dept and was woke up around 1:30 to respond. So we got all the details on what happened. The cold front that moved in made things a little tricky due to the shifting winds but eventually the cold air and higher moisture slowed the fire down and eventually it was stopped. 
Then we stopped back in Stanford to chat again, and Lea, Jen & Lyla showed up just in time so we could see them all. Lyla is getting so big. Her birthday is next week and she is goin to be 2.
So who were you rooting for??? Bob and I were split. He wanted the Steelers and I was for the Cardinals. We had several friends over today to watch the big game. I made tons of dips and cookie bars. I should of taken more pictures but I forgot. I got too into it, and forgot. Bob was bartending at his "Dry Wolf Brew Pub" downstairs, while we all cheered and rooted on our team for the day! Jager was even a part of today. Jonathan (a friend of Bobs from work also in the pict below) played with Jager (which was more entertaining than the half time show) and he also put these 3D glasses on her.
Well yesterday night we attended the Margarita meltdown which was a fundraiser for Eagle Mount. It was at the Four seasons arena. They had the place decorated with Tiki huts, beach bar - with sand, and Jimmy & the parrots (like Jimmy Buffett music). We arrived first and saved a table for us all. Josh & Lindsey were with us and also our friends from Bobs work came. Lindsey brought some great accessories- grass hats & fun glasses. Bob was happy they had Negro Modello (a Mexican Lager beer) and let me tell you, he tried to drink the place dry! Its was great fun and we look forward in attending again next year!
Also last night was a special night for our friends Jim & Carmen! They got engaged! Congrats to Jim and Carmen, we wish you lots of love and happiness!
Just wanted to share these pictures of Bob brewing outside. He is brewing a Pilsner beer this time. The one picture is him adding hops to the beer. He loves his "hoppy" beers. Brewing makes him so happy and really enjoys it! Plus it will be great, because at our New Years party we ended up drinking 2 of the 3 kegs. He also has a raspberry Lambic in the process too. It will take 6 months for that one. I have really started to like Lambic beers so he is brewing it for me! The Pilsner will only take 6 to 8 weeks. We will have to have more party's so he can brew more! Bob has a brewing blog for his Dry Wolf Brewing Co. if your interested. Check it out. He will be updating sometime soon.
Just had to post to let you all know that our new title at the top of our blog was a Christmas present from the Wassermans. Jenn is a Photographer/Scrapbooker who took these pictures and put this together for us! Its really cool. It hangs in our living room and looks great there. So I took a photo of it for our blog. Plus its fun to share this with you all. She did a great job! Thanks!
Just wanted to share this photo of Jager and also wanted to share with you all something that I am doing this year. I have committed myself into taking a Daily Photo of my life. Things that I do, see, interests, creative things, people, and just stuff at times. Basically anything that seems to strike me that day. I will be posting this on my scrapbooking/photo/creative Blog, which is Melissa's Creative design. So can click on the link here or also on the sidebar if your interested in checking it out. I love seeing people comment too!!! So feel free at anytime to comment here or there. I enjoy seeing who checks out our blogs. Anyways.....I hope to keep up with this, even though I know that I wont be able to post everyday-but I will at least try to post them regularly. But even if I'm not posting them daily, I will be snapping photos daily! Bob has also shared an interest in this, so I try to post some of his photos on here periodically. 
Hope you all enjoyed your New Years Eve. We had friends over and enjoyed some of Bob's homebrew (and other drinks too). He had 3 beers on tap: IPA, Kolsh, and Chocolate Oatmeal Stout. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. We played games, snacked, and chatted with friends. I made a recipe that was for a buffalo chicken dip -and it was fabulous! The picture above is a picture of Bob's bar in the basement "man cave" with his beers on tap. Happy New Year to you all!
