Lucky #13 was Fun!........ Aloha-yeehaw it was a Redneck Luau!

Not only have I never been to a Redneck Luau before, I've never heard of one!

Tony made his own Camo "Grass" Skirt

Brian had critters in his grass skirt!

Heidi looked lovely after her curlers came out!

Patti and Ginny came to play!

Leonard's "Billy Bob" teeth stole the show!


All the line dancers,  danced and so did most of the others at some point.

Dick should've won cutest in my mind.

Lee had a Failure to communicate.


I hear the Mai Tai's were good



We all had a Great time!
And I even won a prize in the Meat raffle!
LOL! Fun time was had by all.
Go out and LIVE a little today my friends.
It doesn't have to be an amazing adventure, but it just needs to get your blood pumping!

#12 Permanent Makeup

This is my scary before picture. I think I was nervous.
 I'd never gotten a Tattoo before and I was thinking it was going to hurt!

Her Studio is very clean and comfortable, so I was at ease.


Paulette is a very sweet and caring professional and she made the whole process easy!

This was right after and as you can see not much swelling or redness. I was pleasantly surprised.

 

I think the world needs more beauty, so I'm working on improving what I can!
I'm thinking about getting my eyebrows done next!
If you want to wake up with makeup, give Paulette a call!
Go out and LIVE today my friends, make it count and laugh a little.

#11 Ancestry.com/ Family tree and Geneology


I started Ancestry about 2 weeks ago and I'm addicted!
I encourage everyone to try it!

Started with DNA Collection. Lets see where it leads us in a month or 2 when we get the results back!




So far I found 3 family crests associated to Tony's family tree, and one Cattle brand associated to mine.
I discovered my 2nd great Grandfather Anton Aretz was the oldest surviving Civil war Veteran in Minnesota.



Found lots of Headstones of Ancestors

Had an amazing look into family whereabouts by researching census data



Made my Mom cry when I showed her what her Grandpa looked like.


Lots of interesting things about why and when our Ancestor's departed.
I'm continuing our search into family History,
 so far I've found a Dr. William Hammon 1490-1519 from England,
Tony's 11th Great Grandfather and my farthest link goes to
 Maria Catharina Octave 1695-1773 from Holland, my 7thGreat Grandmother.
Go out and LIVE people, or just stay home and fine out about the people responsible for you being here!
Enjoy!!
