We're an odd bunch but I love them dearly!
{He's a hoot...he's my bro...he's awesome}
{This is his lovely wife who is the best thing to happen to the Ranch since...well...Dad married Mom}
The newest Rancher. He belongs to my Bro and his wife but I lay claim to him too. Can a face get more precious?!}
{Sweet Mom. Dad's best decision 30 years ago}
{Dad...the man who has had the same style since he graduated high school...the most steady person I know}
{PS TIP}
If you have family you are close to...be thankful and do not let those relationships fall into disrepair. Don't sweat the small stuff and be gracious about the big stuff. Respect each others boundaries and care for each others needs. Once those relationships are gone, it's near impossible to get them back.
Don't be lazy about your loved ones!
My family has had some of the BEST times around fires. Bonfires, campfires, fires in our stove...we are a bit of a family of pyros...also considering two of us are wildland firefighters I suppose it's inevitable.
I've never really been one for New Years Resolutions but this year I'd like to set some goals to reach. Life is busy and all over the place for me spending my winter on the ranch and traveling then summers fighting fire in the Western US...it's easy to drop things along the way or think I don't have time in the whirl of my life to send a postcard.
BUT one of my goals for 2015
Put my family and close friends first. Don't cop out and think "they understand I'm busy". Make a real effort to make them my priority.
What are your New Years Resolutions? Share them in the comments :)
