Thurs 11/26 Thanksgiving day at Veronica's house (Gary's cousin) and the boys found the

swingset. Guess you are never too old to play.

Fri and Sat 11/27 and 11/28 We stayed at Grandma's house and worked. Put a roof on her house. The boys helped and man am I sore from all the up/down and squating!

Mon, Tues and Wed 11/23-25 My photos of the day came from Chipper rehearsals. We have off 4 days for Thanksgiving and then back next week for the final rehearsals before we open. I play the "bad guy" along with Dwayne in the photo so no smiling while in character!

Photos of the day 11/11 to 11/14

Wed - 11/11 One our walk, I got a picture of the dogs rough housing, jumping on each other and playing. They play so rough sometimes. Just like kids!
Thur - 11/12 Hunters would die for this view. In our own backyard, an 8 point buck and next to him was two does. Gorgeous. No shooting here, except with a camera.
Fri 11/13 Gary and Timothy working on painting the camero. Making progress.
Sat 11/14 Work day. Cutting firewood, splitting it and stacking it. A really big tree blew over during Hurricane Ike last year so it's firewood this year! Jeremy helped a lot so we took him out to dinner. Timo was ref'ng.

Photos of the day 11/6 to 11/10

Friday 11/6 We went to the Henderson vs Whitehouse game at Henderson. It was super crowded but we got to see the band perform and they won so advanced for at least one more game to playoffs.

Photos of the day 11/3-11/5

Tuesday - 11/3 The neighbors have a peacock and he wonders over into our driveway. I finally found him over here and was able to snap a photo. He rarely opens his tail up. Wish he would but doubt it. Hard enough just to get him to let me take this photo. Ran 4.8 miles at Rose Rudman Park in 53 minutes. Trying to get back into it.
Wed 11/4 Full moon is setting as we head out for our morning walk.
Thursday 11/5 I love fall colors. Just thought this was a pretty tree in fall bloom. Ran 4.2 miles at the park in 50 minutes. Slow, still tired from two days ago.

Couple cards

A couple of cards I created for some challenges at mysketchworld.blogspot.com, twospotteddogs.com, pileitonchallenge.blogspot.com, mojomonday and abc challenge

Photos of the day 10-31 to 11-2

Saturday 10/31 Halloween but no trick or treat ing for us. Gary fixed the 4 wheelers so Gary and Jeremy rode around with Smokey in full pursuit. He chases them, barks at them and gets in front of them. It's a wonder he doesn't get run over!

Sunday 11-1 We went to the Dallas Cowboys game and saw them whoop up on Seattle Seahawks. They won 38 to 14 so it got a bit boring in the 4th quarter as they were so far ahead. But it's amazing just to be a one game and see all the people and how big the new stadium is. The big screen is over 5 stories high alone. It was a super game. (And a second picture from the game just because).

Monday 11-2 I stopped on the drive from work to snap a photo of this pretty flower trolley in front of Petty's Landscaping. Loved it.

Photos of the day 10-25 to 10-30

Sunday 10/25 I took Timo out in our woods and did a photo shoot for his Senior photos. I really liked this one. He didn't smile but he didn't smile in any of them.
Monday 10/26 I went to Walmart and noticed the mums outside and got this shot. I love mums.
Tuesday 10/27 Fall is really here and this pretty tree behind Apple fitness is proof.
Wed 10/28 As I left for work there was a beautiful sunrise out over the pasture. Today was beautiful and I ran 3 1/2 miles at the park in 40 minutes. Slow but at least I did it.

Thursday 10/29 Yes, it's raining again! Buckets full this time and I got this shot of the water splashing up on the road on my way to workout at Apple.
Friday 10/30 Senior night at the last home football game. They called all the seniors out of the band to recognize them. Timo in the middle.

Where did my little cookie monster go?

Where did my cute little boys go that I used to be able to make Halloween costumes go? I miss sewing them halloween costumes!

Photos of the day 10/17 to 10/24

All these photos of the day come from our trip to Grand Cayman Islands. Gary and I waiting at the airport on Saturday 10/17, a full day of flying and traveling. We saw so many igaunas all over the golf course near our resort. This was the grandpa iguna who posed just like I asked him too. All 6 of us at Smith Cove. The group of us getting ready to go scuba diving at Dive Tech. The sunrise at the resort, hammock, ocean, breeze, everything you need. Gary and Chuck going out to dive at Cobalt Coast resort while I took a nap under the umbrella. A cool wall of fish at the airport on Saturday 10/24 on our way. Bunch more photos taken. It was hard to pick one for each day!

Photos of the day 10/14 to 10/16

Wed 10/14 Yes, it's October and the water is freezing but Gary still gets in the pool for a swim. This morning, Smokey joined him!








Thurs 10/15 I did my Scuba Refresher class at TJC so that I can remember how to dive.
