I have been good myself. I’ve been looking forward to Christmas and the Clark’s party. How have the reindeer been I hope they’re ready. I’m looking forward to hearing bells and seeing a red nose. Since Christmas is close I’ve made my list. I have a lot of things but these are my top three. Number one, is a computer to store my pictures on it. Number two, is that my brother gets home safely. Number three, is a new saddle so I can ride ranch bronc with it. Thank you so much for the joy and happiness. I will leave carrots for the reindeer. See you this year.
