This is the Cunningham Coat of Arms from Scotland. The tartan is such a beautiful red and black plaid.The story behind this dates back to 1043. Friskin Cunningham was farming when Prince Malcom was hinding from Mac Beth's soldiers. Friskin concealed the Prince by forking straw over him. Prince Malcom escaped, and later became the King. King Malcom rewarded Frikin by giving him the name of Cunyhame and many tracks of land. Hence this was the beginning of the present day Cunningham's. Do you have a Coat of Arms?

Chuck had surgery on his left thunb on the 26th of January. It is called Suspension Plasty. They remove a joint below the thumb. He'll have full use of his hand when it is healed, but no pain. He got this brace a week later and has to wear it for 5 weeks, then a smaller one will be made. He wears it 24/7. He'll be glad for the smaller one. It will be just for support until the thumb is stronger.

On saturday, the 7th of February, our town held a Fashion Show. Colette and I got to model some clothes. I modeled a blouse, jewelry, and a purse. Colette modeled a jacket, jewelry, and a hat. We modeled for the shop 'What A Girl Wants'. Cute name and beautiful clothes. Most of the clothing shops were there. We had brides, babies, and all in between. Had lots of fun!

These icicles are on the north side of the house. One warm day, in high 30's they fell off.

When we came home from Salt Lake on Jan. 27th we found it had snowed about 14 inches on monday the 26th. The next morning I found that a deer had gone through our yard. A group of them had milled around at the entrance to our driveway and one had then come into our yard. It went to the back yard, around the house and back out to the road. We have fenced our back yard and they can't go through any more. We love to see them when they are across the road. It is a open field.
