Family Fall Festival

This past weekend we made the trek to Anna's house and met with most of my family for a little fall festival at Snepf Farms. It was a lot of fun with face painting, pony rides, a corn maze, pedal cars, petting zoo with a ginormous steer, mini airplanes, and kettle corn. The boys made me and Jodi scarecrows for our homes. I am not sure if they had more fun painting the faces and stuffing them or tumbling around in the straw! I think the big boys, AKA Jason and Michael, had the most fun in the corn maze taking shortcuts and trying to scare us as they jumped out. It was great spending time with everyone.

A Morning Hike

This morning Tukir and I went for a hike with my friend Tonya and her new puppy. It wasn't really a hike, it was more like rock climbing. I had to push Tukir up a few passes and help lift him down the same passes on the way back. Tukir and I thought we would try a few accupuncture attempts with cactus needles. Tukir can be rather bipolar at times. He would play with the puppy and then snap at her. Tonya gave him treats and water, then he lunged at her. Oh my, what a morning. It was great to get out and hike, which I haven't done in a LONG time. I just need to remember I need to get in better shape and Tukir is not as young as he once was.

Thanks to Tonya, I will be hiking more and trying to get in better shape. It always helps to have a little friend support system. So even though I almost killed my dog today on a morning "hike", I enjoyed it and I think he did too (although I am sure both of us will be sore in the morning!)

Progress!

One more project done!! The entire old corral & barn are gone...on to the next project...

Jeff Dunham Show

Last weekend Michael and I went to Prescott to watch Jeff Dunham live. He is a hilarious ventriloquist! Check him out at jeffdunham.com, the "Walter for President" video clip is outstanding...good for a few (lots) laughs!

Michael is Paper

After my personality test revealed me as a "rock", we were interested to see what Michael tested as. His sister, Michele, is also a "rock", Michael turned out to be paper...

You Are Paper

Crafty and creative, you are able to adapt freely to almost any situation. People tend to underestimate you, unless they've truly seen what you are capable of. Deep down, you're always scheming and thinking up new plans. Your mind is constantly active. You are quite capable of anything you dream of. You can always figure out a way to get what you want. You can wrap a rock person up in your sheet of trickery. A scissor person can sneak up and cut you to pieces. When you fight: No one can anticipate your next move If someone makes you mad: You'll attack them mercilessly when they're unprepared

Are You Rock, Paper, or Scissors?
