Fishing at Cresent City




Went fishing at the ocean on our vaction a while back. It is amazing what God put in that big body of water. Some of those thing are just plain scary!! While cleaning one of the fish Neil found an octupus inside of it.
We have had several fish frys since we got home with all that fish. It sure is good!

What a Difference!



I just love watching Neil mow the back lawn. The dogs just crack me up! They follow Neil around like they are really going somewhere. I think they just like to be with Neil, and who can blame them?
The sod is such a nice change. Neil built the fence also, and we just put up the shed. It just amazes me what the yard looked like when we bought the house and what it looks like now! The yard looks so much bigger. There were 9 trees in that little back yard when we got started. Now there are 3. Let me know if you want to come over for a bar-be-que.

Ruger 10-22



Happy Birthday to me! For my birthday this year Neil and his parents got me my very first, very own gun. It is so cute! We went out target shooting last week. And I must say I didn't start out great, but I definatley improved. My first pattern of 10, I think 6 hit the box my target was on. But my second pattern on 10, all of them hit the box, and even 2 of them hit the bullseye. It was so much fun. So if anyone wants to go . . . let me know.
On a brighter note than guns. I got to hear my little new baby (nephew/neice's) heart beat yesterday, and I can tell it's going to be cute. It was quiet an active little thing in there. It looked like it was having a great time bouncing around, not even aware of what it is putting Brenda through. Link to her page to see the baby's first picture. It's even got cute feet.

Half My Pants are Missing

Well, I thought it was note worthy to say that I have finally bought my first pair of Capri pants. Neil was NOT excited. He said they are still ugly, even if they are on cute little me.

Eleanor is Home

I am so excited, my car ('01 Honda Civic) is finally back in the driveway. After much searching Neil and I finally bought a car we thought would last a real long time. It turns out that was 50 miles. Then the check engine light came on. We were overjoyed!
Well, we took it to the dealer and they told us it was the Tork Converter. But after 9 days in the shop she is fially back home. I found out that it is so much easier to park a Honda at Wal-Mart than it is a Dodge truck. Amazing!
Anyway now that my car is finally home I got a chance to name her. We are going to call her Eleanor. Neil doesn't think that it is appropraite, but I think it will work. Some of you might appreciate that name more than others.

We Need a Name

Hello in there . . . Well I guess it is time to give this blog thing a try! I'm really excited.
So I need some help. Neil has filled out an application to become an electrical contractor, but we need a name. You know something catchy but not corney. So let me know what you got.
