On Relevant "Logic"
. .Everyone concentrates on the problems we're having in the U.S.A. lately; illegal immigration, hurricane recovery, alligators attacking people in Florida

Not me. I concentrate on solutions for the problems. It's a win-win situation.

+Dig a moat the length of the Mexican border.

+Send the dirt to New Orleans to raise the level of the levies.

+Put the Florida alligators in the moat along the Mexican border.

Any other problems you would like for me to solve today?

Michaels photos from our Trip North!

I totally forgot to check Michaels camera! He had some interesting photos and I put them into a slide show to share with you!!

I just love seeing the world from his point of view, he makes me laugh!!

One Strange Puppy :o)

It's late and I should be in bed but I am sitting here laughing and no one to share the laugh with...it seems we have one VERY strange PUPPY!!

Jake has run of the house at night and he likes to lay in strange places and in a strange position...

1. He has to lay somewhere where he has something to lean up against.

b. Hallway wall

c. Bathroom closet door

d. Wall next to the bed

2. He lays on his back leaning against the said sturdy object (aka: Wall), with back legs tucked up and front legs stretched out...

Every time I see him I just stare and then start chuckling...I finally decided tonight to snap a photo as he was just too funny...he looks comfy and seems to love his nightly sleeping ritual. He doesn't do this during the day only at night...Silly Puppy!!

Ahhh Jakers life would be so dull without you!!

Trip Photos

Here is a link to our Michigan Photos, Enjoy!

Below is one of several videos I brought back...

Snow Trip

Wow what a trip!!

We left last Friday to go North to Michigan and play in the snow. Michael was so good on the plane as it was his first plane trip since he was 14 months old. We arrived at my Mothers Friday afternoon and headed right out to the snow. We played and played...He loved it!!

One of my favorite photos!

That sparkled in his eyes and that slight grin just made my day!

He was having so much fun!

Grammy and Michael with their snowman just before Michael stomped on it and destroyed it!!

This photo was from Saturday when we went to a local sledding hill.

Michael outside Saturday evening playing in the snow again...

Then the rain hit...it rained and it rained and it rained...By sunday morning most of the snow was gone...boohoo....Michael woke up Sunday morning and was upset as the snow was gone!

We spent Sunday going and visiting my other family members at my Aunt B's house.

This is me with my Cousin Jayne. We were raised together and are more like sisters. I miss her so much and really enjoyed being able to spend some time with her! Hey Jayne how is this photo? You were so worried I would put an awful photo of you up on my blog....LOL....

Yes that is quiet a pile of shoes...and actually that isn't the whole pile as some people had already left...One of my memories of my Aunts House and family get togethers is the pile of shoes at the back door. We always took our shoes off at the door and before to long there would be quiet a pile.

A few of the family members...I wasn't able to get a photo of everyone but it was so good to see them all and Michael and I really enjoyed our visit.

Monday we did a little shopping and then it seemed as though Michael was coming down with something...By Tuesday he had a full case of the FLU!! Grrr....My poor little bugger was one sick puppy!! Tuesday we did manage to go check out a few scrapbook stores but by the afternoon we were back at Grammies and I was laying down with a sick little one. Weds we had a quiet day at Grammies. My sister, Karen, had come down Monday night and stayed until Weds evening and it was good to see her too. By Thursday Michael was feeling a bit better and we hit another scrapbook store. I have so many goodies to play with and can hardly wait to get started...

Friday we flew home...and I call it the plane trip from HELL!! I have never in my life been on a flight like that...We had a LOUD obnoxious woman with her 2 SCREAMING kids two seats behind us...The gentleman that was behind us requested to be moved and they found an empty seat for him towards the front but the rest of us in the back of the plane were out of luck!! Actually the kids weren't to bad it was the MOTHER that drove us all crazy...I told Fred I have never seen a plane unload as quickly as that one did when we landed and pulled up to the gate....everyone practically ran off the plane, LOL...It was the longest 3 hours of the trip, UGH!!

All in All it wasn't too bad of a trip. Michael was able to enjoy the snow and I got some GREAT photos and videos of him. He is feeling a bit better now and I am glad we are home. Today was a beautiful day in South Texas...Sunny and 79 degrees...I stood out in the sun for a while just soaking it up...Fred asked me if I was thawing my cold a$$, ha ha ha isn't he funny!!

I took over 400 photos and have narrowed those down to 40 some photos to put on flickr but I see the flickr site is down for repairs at the moment...when I get the photos loaded on flickr I'll leave a link here so that you can go check them out...

Dancing at the 50th Anniversary Celebration

I took this Video of Michael tonight.

We had a dinner for Fred's Parents, who are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary and once again Michael was the life of the party.

He's back ~

Yes Sir or might that be Madam...

He's back...

My wonderful little MAN

with his point of view of the world in general...

I checked his camera tonight to see what photos he had taken...lets see 20 or 30 of the ride to town in Daddy's truck...a few of Daddy...a few of Momma....Toys....Other people....sorry folks nothing X-rated today...he's getting a bit better and he's learned that he can zoom in on things, Wow!! Check out that Tractor on the center counsol...Mighty fine Zooming there little MAN.

We also learned that he now knows how to take videos, Ekkk...Seems he had 3 videos of Fred and I talking, LOL...So now we really have to watch the little MAN...never know what he might catch on Video...Bathroom doors are now locked!! LOL...Fred is going to have to watch his oil-field language at home tooo...UH OH!!

Oh I forgot to tell you all how our little Man got that scab on his nose...LOL...

You know those Hot Wheels race tracks that you can hook up to the top of the door and they have an elevator that takes the car up...then it shoots down the track and flies through a fake flaming hoop...Well little MAN got the car stuck at the top of the track...I reached up to unstick it and just as I let the car go I turned around and somebody had their head stuck through the fake flaming hoop, OUCH...WHACK right on his nose...he knew he'd made a mistake but realized too late that he was stuck like a bug in a rug!! I know it wasn't funny and hurt but I couldn't help but laugh...I asked him if he was going to stick his head in that hoop again and he said "NO Ma'am"...I think he learned a lesson the painful way....BOYS!! They always have to learn the hard way!!
