Cutting Out Patterns of Winter Snowflakes

Yep, that's what we have been thinking about doing lately, cutting out paper snowflakes. You may be wondering why. Well, we live in Florida and I originally came from Michigan where it snows every year. And since snow is real rare here in Florida (ha-ha) we decided it would be cool to go with a winter theme for decorations this year. So we have been looking for free patterns online. A lot of people make snowflakes using Christmas patterns. We found a site called http://www.papersnowflakes.com/patterns.htm. We will be cutting away!

Hickstead, The Horse of Eric Lamaze has Trageically Died

I'm not a big fan of horses but I am of animals and so when I heard that a famous horse called Hickstead had died recently I was saddened. From what I understand his death was caught on video. In fact, you can search for 'Hickstead death video' to see what happened to him. They warn you that it is graphic.

(I'm thinking that a half marathon is for me so I am going to be doing a search for a 'training schedule for a marathon' but only training for a half marathon)
