Wind, Girls, Christmas, and a matter of life and Death:

Alright.. lets take this Title Step By Step

WIND

We hope everyone is doing well after the crazy winds and cold weather!

The winds didn't do to much of an impact to our home,
 although I wish it woulda taken

the ugly tree in our backyard with it...
 maybe next time

as for our neighbors and loved ones

unfortunately weren't as lucky 

Although thousands of trees are gone, vehicles and homes were smashed

We're thankful that everyone is okay and everyone got a free Christmas tree this year

GIRLS

Let the Fun Begin......

Ahh yes... The Beautiful Bride:

I was Honored to Host the Bacholorette party for non other the Bride to be

Taylor Hunt

We had a Great turn out!

Games:

The annual  Bubble Gum game

Before the party I asked Corbin a few "Questions" such as..

"has Tay ever Farted in front of you?"

"when did you know you loved her?"

Answers are to be left un said for obvious reasons.

Tay had to try and guess what and how Corb answered each one,

If she got it wrong, she'd  have to thrown a piece of bubble gum in her mouth
as seen above.. she struggled with a few

but came out STRONG! .. her jaw at least.

Whats in the sock?

I got together a few " things" Tay and Corb would "need" on there honey moon

and put each one in its separate sock and numbered each one

Each girl had a pad of paper and pen numbered 1-7

passing around each sock they had to try and guess what was in the sock

easy right??

WRONG

There was a catch, they could only touch the socks with there feet.

this game quickly got frustrating and competitive because the winner of the game

......

Got to choose one of the following

I'm so Proud of him and everything he has done to love and support

me and our little family.

Happy Birthday Babe!

May all those wishes come true!

We celebrated with my family at my parents home with some cake and ice cream

and 

celebrated with Jake's family at the local Texas Road House

Yes, he did get to sit on the saddle

Oh the embarrassment..

.........

Speaking of embarrassment..

CHRISTMAS

Every year we bring out the Christmas decorations and ornaments

there is one ornament in particular that has haunted me sense the age of 5

We all know that when we're little our primary teachers take our picture and we later make it into a

"Christmas ornament" to place on the tree that year..

well mine has been placed on that tree for 15 consecutive years!

Presenting..

Jessica : age 5

I often wonder if I were a pioneer

or the star of Wednesday from the Adams Family.

I'm not sure.

But we all seem to get a good laugh out of it each year

........

MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH

Alright.. lets end this post with a "Bang" sense that's what I wanted to do to Tuck yesterday..

Many of you know and have seen the story behind this GUILTY face:

Let me explain.

While Jake and I are at work Tuck usually stays in his kennel during the day

and we come back on our lunch hour to let him out and play

 a quick game of fetch or Bite my arms

Jake and I both decided that Tuck had been behaveing very well lately

no accidents

no chewing

So we THOUGHT that we could trust Tuck to stay outside of his kennel while we were gone..

Trial #1

Went great!!!

No accidents, No chewing!

I was one proud owner!

Trial #2

......

.....

...

..

I walked into the house and saw....

All of my CD's...

Crunched

Chewed

Scratched

Eatin

What amazed me is that after picking up all of the broken pieces

I couldn't help but realize that he actually had eatin and swallowed

at least two full CD's

This is what was left of my "Something Cooperate" CD..

It got the worst of it.

Tuck knew he was in trouble the minuet I walked into the door.

In result:

5 Smashed

7 Scratched

2 Digested

I unfortunately can't stay mad at that face for to long...
