Boo Ha Ha!

This morning we met family down at the Boo Ha Ha event! It's held at this fun area of town and all the business hand out candy & snacks to the kids. They also have a costume contest and a parade but we all wanted to take a break before college football started. :)

More Phone Pics

More random pics from my phone!

Really need to just carry my good camera with me at.all.times...except it weighs down the "mom purse"...not like the extra quarters for the trinket machines, the extra spray bottles of hand sanitizer, a combination lock in case I make a quick stop at the gym and random other things DON'T weigh it down already. HA! :D

Uncle E with Little Man!

My brother is a cop who lives in Kansas with his family. LM thinks he is SO cool because he drives a police car, carries a gun, has a badge and throws bad guys in jail.

School has been keeping me busy, Busy, BUSY! Anatomy & Physiology is my favorite class with my least favorite activity. Dissecting. BLEH! Wednesday's lab had us dissecting and identifying different parts of a sheep's brain. ((shudder)) I was the only one in my group willing to go up and get the thing...luckily our professor suggested we rinse them off first because I'm telling you, the smell was gagalicous. Seriously..I think if I had not eaten my breakfast so early that morning, I would have been making a mad dash for the bathroom. AND I forgot to rub Vick's under my nose that morning before leaving the house (old high school trick) so no help there.

Once we got started it wasn't so bad because we were so focused on making sure we could identify everything. Next up, COW'S EYEBALL! Woot Woot! <----- sarcasm.

Little Bo Peep's sheep isn't coming baaaaack.

Sorry..couldn't help myself! :D

Pics from phone

Needed to delete some pics from my phone and found a cute one and a REALLY random one.

The first one is of Little Man and I at the Disney Toy Story 3 on Ice show. (The Husb was there too). The show was pretty good! Lots of special effects and wire work but they added in some routines that weren't in the movie like the Barbie Chorus Line and edited out others because of time constraints. All in all, it was worth the money because LM loved it!

LM with his Woody light stick and Me.

This next pic is pretty small but its from my Anatomy & Physiology Lab. We just finished up a quiz and I noticed a couple of people looking in the refrigerator so I walked over to see what was so interesting. WELL! It was bags of cats prepped and tagged for dissection in another class. ((GASP))) One group had even named theirs "Boots". ((Are you kidding me?!)) But I just shook my head and took a picture with my phone because I HAD to put it on the Blog.

Hoping that I get a iPhone for Christmas so I can take better spur of the moment pics! :)

(hint! hint!).

Pumpkin Patch!

On Sunday, the family got together out at the Pumpkin Patch for pictures, pony rides, camel rides and the petting zoo! Beautiful weather too!

Even More Picture Catch Up!

When we moved back to Oklahoma back in July, I thought about all the wildlife we would miss seeing in our yard & neighborhood.

Last week I had noticed that the birds, blue-jays in particular, seemed really agitated but I thought maybe there was a cat roaming around. Then when I got home from the grocery store, a squirrel was on a branch over our driveway, barking up a storm. Strange.

Well! The other day, my mom and I were in our front yard chatting and I noticed something that looked like fuzz blowing around. We grabbed one and saw that it was a feather. Mom said maybe the birds were molting or something. Then we saw that it was falling from the magnolia tree so I walked over and looked up...and this is what I saw!

A Sharp Shinned Hawk with what looked like a smaller bird.

He gave me his profile. :)

Beautiful bird but his yellow eyes, sharp beak & talons kinda freaked me out. He was pretty close!

I don't mind if he hunts bluejays (they're noisy and mean) but he better leave my dove and bunnies alone!

More Picture Catch Up!

Last month we celebrating GiGi's 79th Birthday! I forgot to take my camera (I know....what is wrong with me!) so I took some with my phone but only 2 of them turned out well enough to post.

This picture cracks me up!

This is my mom. She ordered a taco salad and when they brought it out,

it seriously was a salad in a GIANT taco shell.

Love her reaction! hee hee
