Photo tag...

Ok, So it has been almost a month since I was tagged by Kira but here goes anyway... I was supposed to go into my sixth photo folder and get the sixth photo but it is already on the blog. So, I went to the seventh folder and the seventh picture and this is what I have...


This is my little brother Michael. I think this picture was taken about 2000ish... That would make him 8 years old. My grandparents have an old buffalo skull on their wall and it was great fun to take the classic photo with horns. Isn't he cute?

Archie

Well, we have done it again. Taken in a stray... hehe Arthur has been bringing home a friend for the past couple of weeks. They sit outside and play and roll around and chase each other around the yard until we would open the door he would run away. Well, Kevin started it by naming it Archie. Once he had a name then I became attached. I finally decided to put some food outside for it and he acted like he hadn't eaten for days. I was finally able to coax him into the house and I picked him up and the poor thing was skin and bones... So, he is now ours. Tippy terrorizes him but I think it may be because Arthur is mean to her... Archie is now the new kid... He is still pretty skiddish but each day he grows a little more brave.

Grandma Bauer

On Saturday we celebrated Grandma Bauer's 97th birthday. Oh my the things she has seen! She amazes me because she still lives alone and is sharp as a whistle! Grandma Cooley had all the grandkids gather around to take pictures with Grandma and they were very excited to help her blow out the candles... so excited in fact that we had to relight them 3 times so that Grandma could do it herself...

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Twins

Around October, my grandpa decided that he would try to grow a beard to see if he could look like Kevin. He liked it and he liked the attention that he got because all the "ladies" always wanted to touch and feel it. Pretty soon he had a very shaggy face. He kept trying to decide weather or not to shave it off and when he was at the barber getting his haircut last week, he decided it was time for a change. Now he and Kevin are twins. :)

Funny Mammals

Sorry to all of those who get sick of only seeing posts about people's pets.... but when you don't have kids, pets is what you get... haha

We have funny mammals. Our dog is my shadow. She is two feet away from me at all times when I'm home. If I'm at the computer, she will worm her way in so she is right at my feet. She wants to be pet and loved on all time time.




The man, however, is different. He will not cuddle, he does not want to be pet, and he does his best to stay just out of reach. Unless.... you have a cuddly blanket. Then he will make himself right at home as long as you don't pet him him while he decides to grace you with his presence.



PS- Sorry the pictures are crappy, they were taken on Kevin's phone.
