The Annual Nurses Bazaar

The annual nurses bazaar is this coming weekend. We will be there with our crystal jewelry. I have been making jewelry like mad this past week and am almost finished.
The last show we did was the Lamoille fair in Lamoille, Nevada. It is held in a beautiful grove. I always pick the same spot under the trees, next to the stream. I always get my spot because my good friend Chris (luv u Chris) who works there takes really good care of me.
Here are some pictures from this years lamoille fair just to get me in the mood for this one.

hunting in Kansas

I thought I was finished with hunting posts,but my brother Randy (we call him Zip) sent me these two pics taken from his game cameras, The first one is of him, and since we don't see him much this is a rare picture. The other is a white tailed deer posing for the camera. I think his hunting season starts soon so he's getting ready. Anyway Zip....I think you look like dad. I had to look closely to tell it was you.

Happy Thanksgiving

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I got an unexpected day off today, so it was just Kim, Mike and I. I didn't even start dinner until 10, it is my day off after all. We ate at 3:00 and now we are all miserable. I think Mike may have to visit labor and delivery at my hospital :).He was rubbing his belly and then fell asleep in his chair.
Kim relaxed by putting false eye lashes on the cat......

We watched some football... Go Cowboys!!!!!!

The cat (Little Evel) made up with Kim.....

And Ginger looks like she is going to bust even though we didn't share our turkey with her.

Anyway....hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. Only 28 more days until Christmas!!!!

More fishing


My friend Jane and I went fishing today at Wildhorse Res. about 60 miles from here. I really wanted to stay in bed this morning and sleep, but I'm glad Jane talked me into it. We brought home our limit of 10 trout all 3 to 4 1/2 pounds and threw back lots more of the same size. That strained look on my face is because I was having trouble lifting the stringer of fish.

Fishing


Mike and I went fishing at Southfork Res. on Monday. Mike caught one, and I didn't catch any. I did take this pretty picture of the mountains at sunset.

Mike didn't get an elk

For all the family that have been wondering if Mike got an elk. He's home and didn't get anything.(although he smelled worse than a rotten elk after 2 1/2 weeks in a tent) I have to admit I'm not sad. Our freezer is full so we would have to bring in the other freezer to put the elk in. I had no idea where I was going to put it. Plus....he is the only one that eats wild game, and we already have a deer, an antelope and part of a buffalo in the freezer. So...I don't have to worry about the picture I promised you all of the BIG ELK.
He said they froze, it was miserable weather, rained and snowed and was really cold. I think he's had enough hunting this year to last him a long time (at least til next year). Not my idea of a vacation. I would rather have the nice heat in Orlando, a nice warm bed to sleep in and a hot shower every night.

Christmas is coming

Less than 2 weeks til Thanksgiving and only 39 days until Christmas. Yikes!! Where did the year go??? It's been a blurr of work, sleep, eat, fishing, scrapbooking, making jewelry, with a couple of vacations thrown in.
In June Kim and I went to Colorado and spent a week with Aunt Sue. My cousin Erica also came and we had a girls week. We played a lots of cards and did whatever we wanted. It was so relaxing. We had all the family over one night and made mexican food. We all enjoyed the food. Kim taught us how to roll burritos, Uncle Don taught me how to use my camera.
Summer flew by, I spent the summer working to pay for my disney world trip.
Fall is pretty much over and we are making jewelry for the Nurses Christmas Bazaar.
Nascar ended their season today and the football season is halfway over. By the way the Broncos WON THEIR LAST TWO GAMES!!!!!!!
And....Just for Tami....A bronco helmet.

My Weekend

Why does everything go wrong at the same time. First thing, I have a miserable cold (didn't think I could get one twice in a month) The last one was a head cold, this one is in my chest and I cough and cough. Then the Broncos and Cowboys both lost yesterday, and Dale JR finished 20th. (Iknow, not a real tramatic thing...I just felt like sniveling).
Okay, enough whining. We didn't get any trick or treaters. It was raining and the wind was blowing hard. I was happy, as I didn't feel good. I turned the lights off at 8, figured I wouldn't get anyone after that.
Sara Palin is going to be in Elko tonight. She doesn't speak until 10pm. I have tickets, will depend on how this cough is by this evening whether I go or not. If so, I will post a report with pictures tomorrow. Don't forget to vote!!!
