Enchanted Rock

Lindsey, Alyssa, and i went to Enchanted Rock in Fredricksburg, TX on Sunday, Jan 30th. Here are some of the pics I took. By the way, this place was waaaaayyy more dangerous that any of us expected. Those straight-drops were crazy.

Well, the last program for our summer reading club was yesterday and it was quite an exhausting event! But it was a lot of fun - and really, really hot outside!!! Here are just a few pics:

Flowers at the Library and my house

I know, I know... you're tired of flower pictures - but that's all that I have to take photos of... hopefully a more, uh, active photo project will come my way. Until then it's flowers.

Flowers when you first walk in

These are by the New Books

I love the brilliant colors and abstractness of this photo :)

Maria saw her first patient die right in front of her today (an old lady) so she bought mom flowers and cried in her arms... poor thing.

Another great picture with brilliant colors and zoom of the petals.

And the final pic, a close-up of one of the flowers

The End :)

Amazingly True

Its SNOWING!!!

Brrr, is it snowing! BUT I'm still here at work... it's been snowing steadily since 6am and its just piling up but... schools are still in session and we are still here at work. Only the army is off now... sad face :(

More San Antonio 2 Pics

I haven't posted anything in a while and what I have posted was done on some down time during work. I decided to post some more pics of our trip to San Antonio in January, so here I go:

This is our tour guide for the ghost hunt we took. His pictures actually turned out pretty scary except for this one - his face in ALL of the others was blurred beyond human recognition - creepy.

This is the back part of a cathedral we visited on the ghost hunt. The story goes that there are ashes buried in this wall of people who died in the Battle of the Alamo and that the original plaster started to show faces coming through it. Lindsey said that she did this tour a couple of years ago when the orignial plaster was still on and that you could see every detail of each face. The put on a new coat of plaster and now some faces are once again starting to show through. I can see three faces in this, one on each side and then one huge one in the middle that looks like the face of s very sad man...

This is a small part of the lobby of the Menger Hotel. It was beautiful inside!




Another small part of the hotel hallways. It was nighttime when I took this so all the lights are on.

This is the first picture I took when we got to our hotel rooms. Some weird light thingie is cutting off parts of everyone... but it's probably just my camera...

Betty smokin' it up in the Mexican Marketplace with El Jefe!

We stopped in the gazebo after we did the ghost tour and everyone gathered in for a picture! :)

We had a crazy-wonderful dinner at the Magic Time Machine. Super Mario was our waiter and he was fantastic! Itssame Mariooo! By the way, he loved Lindsey's mustahce necklace!

We had a wonderful time! I can't wait to see what happen in Jefferson, Texas!!! :) I'll keep ya'll posted!

My Signs

RIP Molly

Well, Molly the fish is no longer with us. She got sucked in (once again) to the filter and she died of her injuries. So Ria sent her off in the trans-toilet to Fishy Heaven. Rest In Peace Molly, we miss you...

In other news, today was a pretty trying day - I'm just glad it's almost over! When I get home I'm going straight to my peppermint tea! :l

YA Wall

Here are a few pictures of the YA Wall - I went with a Winter Blast theme and used painted paper snowflakes with pretty glitter (which you can't see in the pics, boo...)

Well, that's all for now folks :)

The Grinch's Lair

Today I spent a good part of 2 1/2 hours creating the Grinch's lair - I used black construction paper, white felt, glitter, and what could possibly be an illegal amount of tape on one structure. I covered are wooden playhouse set and turned it into this:

Though I did cut off that one large snow/icicle thingie to it matched the others going across the top. All I have left to do is make some Grinchy signs and do the auditions in half an hour and I should be okay for the rehersals next week. Wish me luck!!

I've been busy

doing nothing.... Yup, nothing at all but worrying about this play I'm setting up with the teens, getting everything ready for the Halloween Hoopla, making packets, sending off emails, getting press releases together, gathering up my United Way donation items, planning Monday's movie, and a whole buncha stuff for work.

Yes, I am extremely tired. And I have 2 (2!) dentists appts this week to almost finish up all my dental work... Ugh.

Anyways, this weeked was chock full of stuff I had to do (some happily, some not). I had to work on Friday, dinner at Jeanine's Friday night, the Halloween Hoopla thing on Saturday evening, then a movie and pizza at Betty's and Billy's on Saturday night, and Sunday I went to WalMart with Tyran and had dinner with her... man, I'm beat!

And it's lunch time and I'm hungry :(

OOOOOHHHHHHHH, That looks sooo good :drool:

Clip Art Bonanza

Christmas ornaments in a beautiful blue background compliments the seasonal feel:

Marshmallow-like snowmen are all the rage this year:

I want a puppy for Christmas, just like this:

Clip art and I spend a lot of time together... :P
