Saturday Snapshot - April 2


Last weekend, 2 of our granddaughters came over for a little while.  They rode horses and then my husband washed down the horses before putting them up.  Our youngest granddaughter had so much fun playing in the mud that when she left, she was only in her shirt and diaper.  Boy, was she a mess!!  This picture was taken after she had been splashing in the water.  She was laughing because she thought it was so funny!

Saturday Snapshot - March 19


Last weekend we celebrated my nephew's 2nd birthday.  Those of you that have followed my blog for awhile know that I absolutely adore this little guy!  He is the spitting image of my brother when he was a baby, with the exception of the light hair.  We had his party at one of those indoor jumping facilities.  Everyone had a blast, but the best part for me was watching him enjoy this pizza.  Even after the cake was brought out, a gift overnighted from his aunt in Florida with his favorite cartoon character on it, he still wanted the pizza.  I'm not sure if he ever ate a bite of that cake!

Saturday Snapshot - February 26


My husband took this picture of the elephants at the Houston Zoo this past week.  He is a concrete superintendent and his company does all the concrete work at the zoo.  This past week he worked on a new sidewalk around the elephant's habitat.  In this picture are 3 females (the large ones in the back), 1 young male and 1 young female (the 2 little ones in the middle).  The dark one on the left is 45 years old.

He has come home with some funny stories about the elephants!

Snapshot Saturday - February 5

The Winter Storm of 2011!!

Many of you are probably thinking, "really, that's a winter storm?"  Well, when you live in south Texas ice does apparently constitute a state of emergency.  We had been hearing all week that we had the possibility of snow yesterday, so, with bated breath, we all waited.  Businesses starting closing early on Thursday, afternoon school activities were canceled, and then schools starting closing for Friday.  Our school district waited, but finally at 2 on Thursday, it was clear that we would not work either.  There you have it...we will have a snow day, or so we thought!  This is really what we got...


Nice huh?  I actually took this picture at school on Thursday, but all we got from the "winter storm" was a lot of ice!  It did make for a treacherous day for those that had to get out...not me!  Over 800 accidents were reported in the city of Houston yesterday.  All I have to say is, "duh, didn't you hear them telling you to stay off the roads?"  It's obvious that here in TX, we don't have much experience with icy roads.  So, call us silly, crazy, whatever you like.  I know you want to!
