Down on the farm

In mississippi. At Uncle Lawrences and Aunt Angie's. Petting cows and
the new calves. Riding 4 wheelers and dirt bikes. Playing with
cousins. Having Wii tournaments. Eating lots of pie. Does it get
much better? Probably not ;)

testing.....linking...Hal...

ok, i tend to be a bit challenged at first....I want to test linking to something....hummm....ok here is something. Very cool guy this Hal Samples.....thought i would share his greatness.  If you want some awesome pics made of you, your family...he is the guy to call!  he is gonna be taking my offspring very shortly....you would never ever be disappointed this I assure you!

Twilight....what else?

I finally went to see the movie Twilight last night....Have had friends see it all weekend, reviews were all over the place.  I like to read, nothing to heavy, love story types...sue me I am female :)  Generally when a book that I really like becomes I movie i am not impressed...Potter movies for me were a the exception.  Great, great books....the books were still better than the movies but they were visually FANNTASTIC.  You get a picture in your mind when you read a book and for me Hogwarts looked like it was suppose to?  The characters?  unreal....you think when watching the movie that J.K. Rowling was actually thinking about the folks who played the characters while she was writing the book!  and to me it seemed like the movie came first....Twilight though? I found it a bit cheesy to be honest.  I did not realize that they were just filming this in March/April...I mean serioulsy?  filming in April and the movie was in theaters November?  what was the Rush? That is High School Musical fast :)  a couple of the actors were a little to unreal for me, BUT who's fault is that? the director...  perhaps they need a new one.  what was up with the no blinking business?   a little TOO intense...awkward.  I so wanted to like this movie and yes I KNOW it was made for teenagers, but come on when Edward said "hold on tight my little spider monkey"....the guy who played Edward must have thought that was the dumbest line he had to say!  Goofy! so they could also use a new writer...hey maybe i missed my calling?  

That being said, I am still reading book 4, did not like the second one, loved the third one.....and so far #4 is good.  And yes I will go see the second movie....with the whole weird Jacob thing...with all the teenage girls :)  I hope they pull it together!

now after all that...I so love the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. Now that is some good, good, non-thinking, guiltless reading....all hail Grandma Mazur!

Fort worth zoo

I got the honor of hanging out with some very cool kids at the zoo!  William and the kindergarten class!  Let me just say, boys and girls are DIFFERENT!  neither one better than the other, just different.  We spent LOTS of time in the herpatorium...which is a first for me and they were digging the venomous snakes!  ha....and of course the zoo has penguins now for a bit, so that was way cool!  and I will be glad when they get finished with the new 30,000 sq foot herpatorium...that is gonna be C-R-A-Z-Y!!!  oh and there are 4 new lion cubs....so, so, so dang cute!

Lunch anyone?

When I opened Wills lunchbox after school today...this is what i found!  hungry?  I ask him if he put the jello back in his lunchbox opened and he said yes, he did and that he was saving it for later....only not so much!
