On a completely different note

Just wanted to share this moment with you all.......Blue trying to avoid his weekly bath.

Opening Weekend of Pheasant Season

Last weekend, we went to Canyon for opening weekend of pheasant season. For those of you who don't know, this is one of the biggest weekends of the year in the Texas Panhandle. So of course, we made the 5.5 hour drive from Ft Worth to Canyon for the occasion. I was fortunate to get one bird on Saturday afternoon in Lazbuddie, Texas. Also during the trip, we were able to attend Anne's Special Olympics Christmas party in Amarillo. On Sunday, we had a photo shoot in Anne's room with three of her cats. Having all three cats in the same room was probably the most exciting time of the weekend. Pictures below.

Favorite Time of Year

We bought our Christmas tree today after work, and Jennifer put out our small collection of Christmas decorations. This is her favorite time of year so she really had a great time. Here's some pics of our living room

Sam-Bo!

We were so excited last weekend when Christi and Amber brought our favorite nephew Sam (5 months old) to visit. He is such a good baby, and we had so much fun with him! Here's a couple of pictures (Jennifer took most of them). Look how cute he is!

Relaxing in the hammock...

I love carrots

I can almost sit up on my own

Poor Billy

In case you haven't heard, Billy Gillispie's 20th-ranked Wildcats lost his second game at Kentucky to Gardner-Webb from the Atlantic Sun Conference. From the box score, it looks like they got outplayed from the first minute and never caught up. I'm sure a home loss to a team from a mid-major was not exactly what Billy G was expecting . Poor Billy.

Big Mistake

So I got home from work around 6pm, just in time to find a sunroom salesman parked in my driveway. What were we thinking?!? We invited him to come over so we could get an idea of how much it would cost to add a sunroom where our back porch is currently. We got a lovely presentation from a 3-inch, 3-ring binder with laminated visual aids followed by a fascinating demonstration about space age materials that we have the opportunity to have in our home. 2 hours later, we were definitely no closer to getting a sunroom, and the majority of our evening was gone. I don't know about you, but turning down a hard sell in my living room at 8pm is not my idea of unwinding from the day. Note to self: don't ever do that again.
