Attika is the sweetest thing since chocolate; I had surgery last Friday and she has hunkered down right by my side through recovery. Now I know one can argue, Atti is normally always lazy (most dogs typically are) but for some reason she's been extra sweet and has shared "camp couch" with me this entire time. There is just something about a dog's love. Thanks Atti, mama appreciates your compassion.

Jon has been equally as supportive, taking care of poor pathetic me. He took me for a ride up the Ogden Canyon on Saturday, it was beautiful. Here are a few cool shots from that trip.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.. ya filthy animal...

The build up to the holidays is the best, when the actual day finally gets here it just flies on by. I can't believe all the preparation you go through and how quickly its all over. I'm glad I was able to watch my favorite holiday films though, my favs:
1. Christmas Vacation
2. A Christmas Story
3. Home Alone 1 & 2
4. Rudolph (the classic cartoon)
5. Elf
6. The Grinch who stole Christmas (the classic cartoon)
Spending the time with family and loved ones made it best of all for me. I'm so glad everyone is healthy and that we are able to create special memories with one another.

Now that 2009 is here I am looking forward to a fresh start. 2008 had its ups and downs, but I'm really looking forward to leaving it in the past. Hello new year and new life! I can't wait!
