Dinner At My Sisters

 

We drove up to my sister's house on October 17. My parents were in town. My aunt Laura and uncle Gordon were in town. And my aunt Pat and uncle Bill came by. It was such a nice evening. I'm so glad I got to see everone. My sister made my granma's spaghetti sauce and was it GOOD!! My neice Ashley is holding thier new dog Sammy, what a cute puppy!

Obama's Acceptance Speech

This man really inspires me. It's 45 minutes long and worth the time. Even if you think you don't agree with him, open your mind and give it a listen. You may be surprised.

My Garden

Sorry I have not posted in a while, things have been kind of hectic. With our failed nuptials, and school starting it was been overwhelming. I think I went into a depression for a while. Anyway, this is my garden this year. Not much the ground here is terrible. Even with excellent care it is hard. I have just not had the time. I am taking 14 units this semester! Let's see: Chemistry 1, Math 3 - College Algebra, Humanities 5 - Parallel Myths, English 1C - Critical Thinking And Composition, and of course PE, I Love PE!! That's a lot to tackle everyday. I'm doing well so far, so wish me luck!

Did you notice this in the last picture? This is Myrtle. She owns that spot. Why? you may ask. Well if you look underneath her, she is sitting on top of her catnip!! That's her catnip and she LOVES it!

Asian pears, One of my three artichoke plants, yellow squash and of course tomatoes!

Watermelon, my herb garden (including cat), cucumbers, and bell peppers.

I have to water around Myrtle and her catnip. Look at that tongue move!!

Happy Birthday Judy!!

This is Judy's dog CoCo. Isn't he precious? Happy Birthday Judy. James and I miss you very much and wish you the best Birthday ever. We wish we could spend it with you. Have fun and give CoCo a treat for us (he likes pigs ears!)

Draco

Isn't Draco cute! We gave him a piece of Cheddar (One of his favorite cheeses!) and I had to take a picture of him. I like the way his little fingers hold things, so cute! His favorite foods are carrots, cantalope, cheez-its, and yogurt treats. He gets them all very often, that must be the reason he is so BIG!

Chyrisa's Art

My cousin Chyrisa has recently taken up caricature drawings, and she's pretty good at them! Here she did one from a picture we took at Florida's Disneyworld in 2007. I especially like the ears on James. Great work Chyrisa, we love it!

Update Us!

Hi, thought this picture would be a cute post. We are doing well. School has 4 more weeks left, I can't believe the semester is almost over. I had to drop microbiology, I was not prepared enough. I am still in algebra and PE. I plan on taking PE over the summer, I love to go to the gym! I have lost a lot of weight and have built up nicely. I have started my spring garden, I will have pictures soon. We also have a new kitty, her name is Zelda. I will post a picture and the story soon.

James New Look

What do ya think?!!

James Has A New Gig

This is James and his teacher Heather. He is apprenticing at Half-Minded Images in Phelan; learning to become a body piercer. He really likes it and Heather is very nice to him. The only problem is that I have become his guinea pig! I now have new holes in all kinds of new places! Not quite sure about that, but oh well, I can always take them out.

Florida 2007

I'm still trying to post some back pictures. Here are a few from our trip to Walt Disney World. This was in December 2007. James, my parents Tony and Lola, and James at the Magic Kingdom and Epcot.

Steve's Second Tattoo

They say once you get one, it's non-stop. We'll they are right. This is my second tattoo. It is on my left calf. I had the outline done first. I had the color done when I got back from Florida in December. It is the sun and moon by the way!
