"Nothing Lost....

....that may not be found, if sought. "
Sense and Sensibility, quoting Edmund Spencer
This past year, much has been lost.
Specifically, the happy memories.
Everything seems buried under a snowdrift of grief.
Many times, I put in the effort, took the pictures,
but sadly neglected to make the memory mine.
So here I begin, to recapture some of the past months
very happy times! Thanksgiving morning, 2008
Our first annual Cowboy Breakfast.
The menu: omelettes and hash browns,
hot cocoa, then apple pie!
The costumes: bought and scrounged just the day before....
complete with hats, neckerchiefs, and plaid shirts.
And for some, boots!

Memories can be reclaimed... there is joy in the morning. My hope for you this year, that you will fly on the wings of eagles.
