UNUSUAL HAPPENINGS

I stole this picture because I think it is pretty spooky. This creature was caught on a game camera in Athens, AR. It is a mountain lion. Recently we have been hearing a loud growling creature near our house. When I saw this I decided it must be a mountain lion. (Julia, thanks for sharing this picture. Thanks also to Mason for catching it on his game camera.)

You might wonder about these two beauties. They participated in the Gender Bender Contest held recently to raise money for the Nursing Home. The one in blue was the big winner. Many said his rendition of one of Beyonce's songs won it for him but I think he is quite lovely. The other one won "best hair". I think he put on quite a show. He had that hour glass figure and long flowing locks. Lovely!

If you happened upon this little cemetery in the woods you might think, "Now this is a strange cemetery!" You would be right. This is a pet cemetery. All of the pets buried here were loved by one very special man. Most people just bury their pets but his pets get the royal treatment when they depart this world. Each one is given a marker because they were loved so much.
OK, what do you think happened here? This little bird was found hanging below his/her nest. A long horse hair was wrapped around the neck and that was it. It completely took the chirp out of this little fellow. Poor baby!

You can tell things are getting pretty boring at my house when I search for something to put on my blog. I did spend three days in the hospital but believe it or not I didn't get pictures.

MY GRANDDAUGHTERS AND THEIR BARREL RACING



Sheyanne and Madasan are running the barrels every chance they get. They were in a show up by Ft. Smith on Friday night and tonight they are participating in the benefit show in Foreman. It is for one of the families that lost loved ones in the Albert Pike Flood.

I worry that they spend so much time out chasing barrels but I guess that is better than out chasing boys. It is something they love and their mom is right there along with them.

BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW



When we left church we were greeted with the most beautiful rainbow. I failed to get a picture but later found these on Facebook. I think one was taken at DeQueen and the other north of Dierks. Thanks FB friends!

GIRL'S NIGHT OUT TO SEE ECLIPSE...




It is that time again...Twilight Saga. We went to the 6:30 movie of Eclipse and then invaded the Olive Garden for a great meal. We had mixed emotions on which team we were on Jacob or Edward. Toss up...
