Merry and Bright ~ December 2 2009

It’s the second of December and the fall colors are peaking here. Not sparkling lights or crisp white snow but still Gods beauty shining through on a chilly winters day in December.

Whew! I honestly didn't think I'd get this layout done today...Jen sent me some new papers she had designed and I had this idea of what I wanted to do. I was just hoping the sun would come out so I could get the photo I wanted. Some of the Oak trees here have turned a brilliant reddish orange and I just love how bright and merry they are...
The photo above isn't one of the brightest ones I took today but I loved the cow in the photo! So this is December 2nd for the December Daily...two down and many more to go, lol...

It was suppose to be an easy day and turned into a very hectic one...Dad (Grandpocka) has a torn retina and had to be taken to Houston for emergency surgery...My Sister in Law, Diana, and her husband, Larry, took Mom and Dad to Houston. Well Larry asked me if I'd keep their dog...I said yes. I know how hard it is to find somebody reliable to take care of your animals...Okay so "Roc" isn't a dog...he's an ELEPHANT!! In the meantime Fred is calling me to do something for him, I am in the middle of eating lunch with my Library lady friends, and I have to pick Michael up from school....AARGH!!
I managed to get "Roc" to the house, after he slobbered all over the inside of my truck, grr...The crate (kind of sort of) put together and Roc in it and head to school to get Michael...Made it home in time to give Fred a kiss and hug goodbye...sheesh...
Now Roc is a puppy...at least 75lbs or more puppy...and he has no manners...Barks (or should I say trumpets) his fool head off when ever I leave the room, ugh!! Jake is NOT happy and let Roc know it...So to avoid an argument Roc is stuck in the crate...KitKat is pissed off...The chickens are okay but weren't when Roc tried to get in the coop, Oops! Michael is scared to death of the elephant and I'm thinking I can handle this for one day, ha ha ha...Larry called and said they're staying until Friday........NO!! NOooooooooooo!! Oh and by the way Roc also seems to have a noxious gas problem to boot...........UGH!!
Anybody know any good Elephant keepers? Or perhaps a Gas mask...adult and child size PLEASE!! Lets not forget ear plugs while we are at it :o)

Love the phrase "Merry and bright" with this picture! So appropriate. Glad the sun came out a little. It's been pretty gloomy over here in San Antonio lately.
