Friends, the Fair and Randy vs the Snake

FRIENDS


Our BFFs from Georgia came to visit us this last weekend. We had the best time with them! Matt is one of Tomm's best friends and Dianne is one of mine and they just happen to be married to eachother so it is always fun no matter what we do or where we go. When we lived in Georgia we were always together. We miss them so much!

Here are the manly men

Friday during the day Tomm had to work :( so we went to "City Place" and walked around. There are a TON of shops and we had lunch at Cheeburger. It was so sunny and pretty outside. SO fun!

A cool fountain in the big court yard.


THE FAIR


The South Florida Fair is happening now (See... if all you guys move to Florida then January won't be such a drag. ). There are always so many things to look at and watch. From animals to crafts of all kinds. And the treats... everything from soup to nuts! We had so much fun.
I also entered a baking contest this year too. It was so awesome!

This was probably the coolest exhibit we saw at the fair. We stood and watched them carve and pack for a little while. The details were perfect! It was pretty amazing.

A mummy! Ahhhh

Me and my date!
Dianne and her date.My enteries in the contest were Key Lime Cupcakes. These turned out perfect! It is so fun for me to get into something like this and get a little competitive. Whit's Apple Pie... one day it will be "Mom's apple pie" to the kids. I can't wait to teach it to them.



THE BUNNY RANCH
Bunnies for sale!
The most social bunny. The girl walked him around and was letting people and little kids pet him.

The fluffiest bunny


The most anti-social bunny. Hiding in the pipe.

The most nervous bunny. Sleeping with one eye open. CUTE!

Most tired.

Grumpiest

The Poser... trying to be a siamese cat. Cute!

Gather round y'all for the pig race! Heeell yeah!

No swamp is too much for these tires.
Gotta have the hunting/ deer accesories. I dedicate this picture to Jarrel.

We were tempted.... a swamp truck would be fun to ride now and then.

Tomm checking out all the cars. He LOVES anything to do with cars.... You can't stump him. I was like "What year is this one?" He knew all of them! Impressive!




The salesman told me I would look hot in this car. I told him I'd be happy just to go for a ride in it. I love the purpley red color and the big engine. Rummmm rumm




RANDY vs the SNAKE
The saga continues with our cat, Randy and his life adventures in the outdoors. Sometimes I think it would be interesting to see where he goes all night because there are so many critters everywhere. However... I would NOT have liked to be a fly on the wall outside on the patio during this night. All I know is I woke up that morning and found a grizzly crime scene on our patio....

He was totally proud of himself! Why do cats bring you discusting things? Sickness!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Mom, Dad and Grammy.
My Grandma is 92 today. She is such a big part of my life and so special to me. I can't wait to see her next time I visit Idaho.
I love you MORE!

Ringing in the New Year...

I feel like The holidays flew by so fast... so I am finally sharing all we did over Christmas and New Year's. We had the most amazing time together! Tomm was completely OFF of work from Christmas Eve to New Years Day... WOO HOO! So that was my favorite thing and his favorite thing about the holidays.... TIME for spending time together.


Where'd everything go?! Do you think they see us?

Our little darlings enjoyed all the action on Christmas morning. Randy is a little too mature for ransacking wrapping paper and ribbons. Purrl on the other hand was all for it!
And of coarse they played thier favorite game of chase and they enjoyed some WET food.

There were definitely other perks as you can see... Tomm loves to suprise me and he did this year. Everything I opened was a suprise.

Smile for my NEW camera!

Tired after all the chasing.
Tomm and I love to go for rides and go look around. We got some pretty pictures while we were out of the Christmas lights. I finally have a camera that will capture lights and fireworks! Yay!
We went to dinner at a Japanese Steakhouse on New Years. It was so fun! I like to watch them cook and flip the stuff around.
There was chocolate of course.
My cute baby kitty. She has made claim to the blankets my Grandma sent us for Christmas.
