Let it Snow, Let it Snow...

and yes I am still in Alabama!! so I know I have pretty much abandoned this blog since January!! It just seems to never get crossed off on my list of things to do.. Since I found a good reason to blog here goes...

This morning I woke up to a snow covered backyard!! and it was 55 degrees yesterday. So alabama weather is similar to Michigan (right dad?!) ...sometimes. Remy didn't know what to think, his first reaction was to bark at it and then he loved it. In fact, he made me late in going to show the houses I had to show today because he did NOT want to come in the house. Anthony on the other hand observed from the door and did not step foot outside..

This is remy and Sparty the Snowman I built. I think Remy was disappointed because he wanted it to move!!

now it is 4pm and the snow is pretty much gone and my backyard is all mud and remy is filthy dirty.

Go Right Through for....

MSU! Watch the points keep growing...BOOM,BOOM,BOOM or Stacey falling down the stairs!! This is what Anthony heard from being in a dead sleep.. Yes I did fall down the stairs and we only have 3 in our house! I know you are probably wondering why was I singing the MSU fight song... I am not crazy and I hadn't even had a drink yet! Let me recap.. It's 5pm yesterday and I just got done working out. I was in the bedroom changing my clothes, I put on my Michigan State T-shirt(thats what got me in the mood to sing!!) I had my phone in one hand and 2 coffee cups in the other (one half full with that morning's coffee), Remy was behind me and I proceeded down our hallway to go make a drink, see picture #1. The rest is history, slipped on the first step, coffee mugs flying in the air, coffee all over the walls, phone flying in the air. Anthony says " what are you doing" as he is walking toward the scene of the accident and asks me if I am ok.. Well then I just started balling but then realizing what happened when I turned to see Remy staring at me... I busted out laughing. I am actually laughing right now as I type!! No major injuries and unfortunately since Anthony doesn't really think about "blogging" I have no pictures of the actual accident but hopefully from the two posted you can just picture me! I actually just slipped on the first stepped and bounced down to the second one...

yea that is the nice black scrape that my cell phone made as I was trying to catch myself and still I have yet to get this off my wall.. Any suggestions? feel free to comment.

We're still here...not sure how often!!

Well I know it has been close to a month and I haven't posted.. Thanks to my friend Kate for getting on me I am going to post. Not too much has really happened since Christmas that has been overly exciting. Anthony and I did go to the Capital One bowl in Florida and we met up with Brad, Diane, Laura, adam, kyle and Adam's brother and girlfriend. We had a really good time eventhough MSU lost...it was the whole 3rd quarter thing and as cameron likes to say the QB is just Hoyerible. It was fun to see Kyle who has changed soooo much since I saw him at 7months old. He is such a little boy who has some new dance moves.. check them out at Laura's site. We also had to leave Ashley home alone for the first time which was very nerve racking but she actually didn't do too bad. Unfortunately, Remy was a different story. We had to put him in the kennel and lets just say he DID NOT like it one bit. In fact, he hated it so much that I got a letter sent home KICKING him out of the kennel and saying that he can not come back to Pet Camp without training!! I know I laughed too.. this is a dog and I am getting letters home?? They specifically said that Remy knocked over 2 employees and head butted one lady with the intent to charge past her!!! So needless to say I called them to get the details and really had a hard time holding in my laughter. Remy is in a little bit of training but I dont want to take him back there anyway. Alabama just doesnt know how to run a dog kennel. on top of that, he didnt eat the whole time he was there and came home with nothing but skin and bones... So that is all that is new for now. Maybe I wont take a month to post next time...

Does Santa Bring your dog presents??

Yes I am crazy about my dog or for that matter all dogs in general!! and yes even Santa brought Remy presents!! Here are some videos and a picture of him when he finally wore himself out

My Big 3-0 .. a little late

well now that it has been over a week I wanted to post some pictures from my birthday. I was so busy posting about deer I couldnt even get these in. I am so thankful my loving family in Michigan and my husband. I must admit the night before Dec 5th I really was not feeling turning 30. I have never been that way but I really just didn't want to!! But I put on my girl panties and when about my business and had the best birthday ever. First thing that surprised me was that Anthony remembered right when we woke up to wish me a Happy birthday:-)

when I got home from work I had a box waiting on the doorstep.. you know you love getting mail too!! I was so excited. I open up the card from Bryan, carrie, aidan and gunnar and out falls two pictures. I couldn't even tell what they were at first and then the tears started to fall. Just look at the pictures and you will see! Not only my immediate family but Lynn, chuck, charlie, robbie, justina(who I'm not sure i even met), lori, Aunt aud and uncle eddie all wishing me a Happy 30th Birthday!(with signs) I am so thankful for all of you. and then I had a little "party in a box" that included candy, cupcakes and some liquor. So I preceded to not do one shot but then another "long distance shot" with everyone at my mom's and so on..the only thing missing from that party was me and ant!!!

Then to top things off, I even got a present from my husband that wasn't even on the little list I made out! I got an Ipod, and yes I know I am a little behind the times since cameron has an Ipod before me and he is only 9!! but I LOVE IT. we even got the docking station/subwoofer to go with it and I am so surprised the neighbors haven't gotten upset yet.. so to wrap it up my 30th was more than I could have asked for and it feels just like 29!!

Bambi's Mama

So I think this blog has turned into posting about Anthony's hunting adventures!! Here are some pictures of Anthony's brother Duke and his first deer. Congrats Duke... welcome to the world of Anthony's passion for hunting (obsession is what I call it)
Duke and Ant went hunting on Sunday morning and he killed a doe.

Poor Bambi....

haha Thank God for the big buck Anthony shot tonight.. I can have a fun birthday weekend now!! Otherwise, he probably would have been in a bad mood! This is going to be a short blog because I got dinner going now..

and he may have just convinced Ashley to go hunting.

and Remy even liked him..
