I celebrate each year we make it!  We have held each other up throughout the years but Rex obviously has more in physical ways.....

I blog about our anniversary every year.....and I thank my blogland friends for indulging me!

  

My Cane Corso Puppy

Daisy Mae and Donny 

We got a new Cane Corso puppy!  she is 11 weeks old.

Since Donny is 11 years old, I was hoping  he could pass on some of his great traits.....So we got a girl 11 weeks old and named her Daisy Mae.

I Love mastiff’s since they are smart, lazy and very protective.  Remember Donny killed a moccasin snake that was coming towards me.  When it was 2 feet from me Donny bent down and suddenly the snake was bit in half! 

Daisy Mae is Very active but sweet as can be!

Georgia Artist With Disability Winner

This is me in my
 booth with the 3 acrylic paintings I entered

I was very surprised to win the Chairman’s Award!  And my family was also.....

We had began to think I hadn’t won anything as it was getting toward the end of the ceremony.  My sister Karen was texting my other sisters saying that it was nearing the end with no award for me.  One of the few awards  left was the Chairman’s award and it was left blank in the brochure.  Glen said maybe she won that??

Karen texted,  sorry Kim, but I don’t think she won the Chairman’s award.

About that time they called my name for the very last award at the end of the ceremony, the Chairman’s Award.  I drove my chair up there to receive my award as seen below

 Receiving my award


The Pilots Club of Metropolitan Atlanta started a wonderful program!
