Winter Blues

I am truly suffering from the WinterTimeBlues! It is cold and dreary outside. And on the inside I find myself the same, cold and dreary. I need something new to catch my attention. I have a couple of projects that I am working on.

~~

The main project is the Christmas Stocking that I have been working on for Liam. It has taken me a bit longer than I had anticipated. I had hoped to finish it for Christmas 2010 - but, it seems that it will be a Christmas 2011 gift.

My second project is organizing old photos. I purchased a photo converter which will take a negative or a slide and copy it to a digital photo. I have a pile of 30 to 40 year old negatives that I am attempting to digitalize. The pictures are not perfect, however, they will be a nice addition to my other photos. And it will be nice to actually be able to view these pictures since I no longer have the originals. Here are a few examples:

My cousins and my Grandma Less (holding me). Notice the huge laugh my Grandma is having - I love this picture!!

This is the Stutzman side of the family on one of many holiday gatherings.

My brother and I with our Great Grandma Stutzman.

Dad, Mom and me.

I also continue to work on the familiy tree project. I still need to decide what type of medium I want to put my finished work on. . . paper, disc, etc.

I am so very anxious for the weather to warm up and we are able to get out on the bike and check out the great roads here in Kentucky.
