Good Morning

Waiting for breakfast

Trunk or Treat and National Cat Day!

This evening we headed over to a local town for some Trunk or Treat at our Electric Co-op. Michael was a Dallas Cowboy Fan. He doesn't like to trick or treat, he says he feels like he is going begging for hand outs to strange peoples houses and hates that. But he will do the Trunk or Treat and they are so good to us. 

 We loved the Jelly-fish lady, too cute!

 Minion Lady, awesome

 Pin the hat on the witch...

 Creepy coffin full of candy!!

 These guys had a Nerf dart game and Michael did hit a target, it was cute as a piece of candy flew out at him...

 We got there early and the crowd was getting big as we left...So nice of our local Co-op to do this for the kids.

As we headed home we chased the sunset....Gorgeous!

Also in honor of National Cat Day a few photos of our Cats/Kittens...

The latest addition to our home and hearts, Ms. Lucy. Michael has fallen in love and claimed her as his...She was found in a mud puddle this past Saturday by a friend and we decided to take her in. She has had her first visit to the vet. After being tested for Feline Leukemia and the results were negative, she was vaccinated and wormed. She had a rough couple of days but is feeling Oh so much better today and had fun playing with her toys and Michael. 

Catnip Mouse fun!! 

Someone is a bit put out by the new family member. I've been giving her a few extra Salmon treats to make up for it but she is still giving me the stink eye, lol. 

I had to laugh as she would not pose for the camera and actually wanted nothing to do with me...I have a feeling in a month or two her and Lucy will be best friends!! 

Here's hoping y'all have a fun and safe Halloween!!

Sunset

Blotched water snake...

I went for a walk this afternoon. I always look for snakes when I walk but normally don't see any...Today I spotted this by one of the trees in the back pasture! Oh so cool!

Non-venomous and very docile while I took photos! 

 Love the face...They eat frogs and we have a lot of frogs.

Nice, Fat and Healthy...

We had a lot of rain (6 and 2/10ths inches of rain, Friday thru Sunday) but no flooding. We so needed the rain and it all soaked in! This should help the trees.

Photo bombed by Sydney...

The light in the new house is awesome. Jenny was lying by the front door and I grabbed the camera and laid down on the floor for some photos...

~

 Such a pretty dog and such a good dog, we love her...

~

And then here comes Sydney...clip, clip, clip...Photo bomber!

Jenny doesn't know what to think of Sydney and is a bit jealous...

~

Honestly Sydney...I was trying to get photos of Jenny!

This is pretty much our day around here...There is always a little yellow bird in the center of the mix trying to get attention! 

~

MOM!! There you are....Mom!! Mom!! Mom!!

Yikes I've been spotted...

Poor, Sweet Jenny...

Once again Sydney takes over...

Hot Air Balloon Spectacular Floresville Texas...

We got up bright and early (4am) so I could be at the balloon spectacular at 6:30am, Hot Air Balloons were suppose to launch at 7:30am. I wanted to be there when they set up and so glad we got there early...Loved the sunrise! 

 Sun rise always makes it worth getting up early...The Hot Air Balloons were an added bonus.

 Getting them ready...

 You don't realize how big they are until they are blown up, wow!

 We have one up in the air, yeah!
