Big NEWS!!!!
Bet you are wondering what I've been up to.....well too much to tell....BUT...I will share this, my sis and I used to own a primitive shop called When Pigs Fly, after we sold it several years ago we got together and formed Bad Girls of the South, we fooled around with that for awhile and then let it rest for a couple of years. Well, we both got the bug, or got bored and have decided to wake those Bad Girls up!!! So go see Bad Girls of the South and see what we have been up to......

Well...Hey there!!!!
It's FOOTBALL TIME and Stink is doing great this year. I am the official team photographer and web site mom so tht is keeping me BUSY!I have created the website and I tke pictures at every game and then post them to the gallery on the site for the kids to see. I am having a great time, but time consuming it is!!
I took my darling Niece with me to the Sheila Witkin Memorial Concert in South Florida and they honored my Dad , her Pop Pop, and recognized him for all of his contributions to the 1980's music scene that included young guitar players such as this....
It was a great weekend for a good cause and I had so much fun seeing old friends, famous or otherwise!
We are still trying to sell our house....any takers?
We bought a little cottage downtown last week, a foreclosure that needs a total redo...here are some before pics, I will post the afters when we are done. The plan is to move in there when it is finished and keep trying to sell our house, hopefully with it vacant the showings will increase.....
Nice paint color choices huh??? Can you say...DUMP!!!! It will get better, it will be fine,it will get better it will be fine...c'mon say it along with me!
On a sad note we lost one of our pets, our dear old Aussie friend Luke had to be euthanized....we miss him.
Well, that's enough for now...you can see we've been busy...I still hve to share our vacation with you.....next time! Take care!!!

Genealogy...Not just for bored old people....
Waz up??????
This past weekend my sis and I , Cass over at Mockingbird Hill and I went to our family reunion on my Dad's side of the family...my dear Dad passed in 1984 so Cass and I still try and keep in contact with what is left of his family. Anywho...my dad grew up in North Florida in Malone, near Two Egg, yes,that really is a name of a town. Both towns are near Marianna, about an hour Northwest of Tallahassee. The reunion was held in Malone at a place called The Joy Club. we visited with our Great Aunt Pearl who is 87.
Other than the whole Popeye thing I have going on with my left eye, it's a pretty good pic of the three of us all in all.
There was sooooo much good ole' southern food there it was a treat for sure!

The GIANT catch up post...
Hi All,
I have been a bad little blogger and have decided to set aside some time today to catch you all up....In my previous post I had promised pics from Stinks birthday night dinner so I am going to start there and keep going till you are all caught up......
Next came my birthday and the whole group got together and decorated my office ....
My sister surprised me with this cute little girl that she made for my bday...
My adorable neice Bailey came up for a visit...
We went out for dinner at this restaurant whose slogan is ..."I shucked my nuts at Zellie's"...don't know what else to say about that but here's Stink and Big B representin'
Stink's big day for taking his driver's license test was fast approaching....I spent WAYYYY too many afternoons driving around...and around...and around..... with him practicing for his driving test....one day we were making our umpteenth trip down Overlook Drive and look what we saw....
Two baby red foxes out of their den.....sooo cute.....keep driving.......
Next on our list was a Football Fish Fry Fundraiser.....hot is not the word for that day....I thought I would die...but we raised about $8,000 bucks for the team....that's alot of oysters and fried fish.......
Let's see, what next.....hmmm......we decided to build a deck over looking the water behind our house....
Got so hot Stink took a dip with our Corgi....Simon
This brings us to the BIG DAY.....Stink was ready for the driving test....
And he did it!!! Of course I made him pose in front of the Driver License place for a pic...they even gave hime a lollipop, note the stick in his mouth....
Big B's Mom, Stinks' Nana, is awesome and was gracious enough to give Stink his first truck. The truck had been Daddy J's and when he got a new SUV, Nana and Daddy J were so sweet and offered the truck to Stink.....he is one lucky boy....we are such lucky people, we have an amazing family...
Well, about an hour after passing the driving test, here's what I saw.....
Note the dirt flying from his back tire.....he was gone...like the wind.....
And we have barely seen him since..................

Stink's Birthday Celebration Begins....
We did the best we could, and Stink did not mind.
Aaaaahhh yes.....the presentation of the sword....this is a BIG deal. Big B's Dad got this during the World War II and after he died when Big B was only 11 he inherited it. This is a precious thing to Big B...he decided that it was time to pass it to his son....Stink was FLOORED he has asked for this sword since he was little. Tyler said he will pass it on to his own son someday..... So sweet of Big B and so meaningful. I have the BEST husband.
Tyler promptly cut his cake...........notice the "Ipood" t shirt....that's my boy
Licking the frosting from the candles.....this birthday thing had started off pretty darn good!
Tomorrow prepare yourself for Part II. We took Stink and 4 of his friends to "Lampu".....many more pics to follow.....
