iHeartFaces Photo Contest for "Pink"

I WAS going to submit a photo for the challenge this week, until my sister Michele took this most Amazing pink picture of me! I thought to myself..."I can't top that one!" So I'm posting it here today for everyone to see. Feel free to visit her blog at http://mlamedia.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-faces-challenge-pink.html and leave her a comment!

We had such a great time hanging out with friends trying to get the right shot. I adore Roses, so I didn't mind having my face in them for awhile!

Thanks Sis...this is my favorite photo!

It's Holiday Time

This pic was taken last year before our Annual Halloween Boo Bash! Do you ever feel this way during the final months of the year? October...Halloween, November...Thanksgiving, December...Christmas! Geez...let's not even throw in several family birthdays and other gatherings in the mix! My plate is maxxed out during the final quarter of the year! Then there is New Years and HERE COMES TAX SEASON! Ughhh....what a headache! I have my own taxes to prepare and the lives of about 100 more people to sort out...but I guess I shouldn't complain, the extra cash is unbelievable! I mean, come on people, it's not that complicated! I get paid on average $250 per return that takes me about 7 hours to file! Duh! But, I guess I do know the tax codes and it makes people feel better knowing that things were filed correctly and they got the maximum return possible.

We have plans to go hunting in Kentucky in the next few weeks...I LOVE IT! Our Aunt has over 50 acres to hunt on and it is the most down-home relaxing time for the entire Young Clan! Aunt Myrtle spends her entire day in the kitchen and we do what we do best...SHOOT GUNS! My favorite weapon of choice is my 12-gauge shot gun! Damn...that thing almost knocks me back a foot or two!

Then there is Christmas...so much to do and not enough time to do it! I'm thinking about taking my family away for Christmas weekend...Nashville TN is calling me.

Well, back to banging my head around! I'll hang in there if you will! I'll be sure to let you know how things turn out!

iHeartFaces Photo Entry for "Excited"

>

This picture of my son was taken about 3 years ago when we were vacationing on a Houseboat at Dale Hollow. My son and I went for a walk on the trails and came across this snake at a horse stall. He said to me "Mommy, catch it!" And I DID, with my bare hands! He was so proud of his mommy and was so excited to tell everyone back at the boat site that his Mommy caught such a big snake! He will be telling that story to his grandchildren one day!
