Happy Black Friday

Happy Black Friday! The busiest shopping day of the year and Debbie and I got to sleep most of it. Emily seemed to enjoy playing in Mommy and Daddy's bed this morning. I have been feeling kinda sick today. I bet you can guess why. LOL I think I ate too much. I am sure many people are feeling to way I am today. Oh well, I am taking it slow today and just enjoying a few days not having to watch Emily all day. I am however so ready for people to leave and Debbie and I can get back to our lives some may seem boring but we love it. If you shopping today best to luck to you. I plan on doing all my shopping online.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all and all a good night! Oh wait no that is Christmas. Oh well, Today was one filled with family stress but it seemed to be okay, at this point at least. The food was great and I eat like a horse. Now Debbie and I are ready to go back on our diets come Monday morning. The only down side to having Thanksgiving dinner at our house is we have to clean up after dinner. But for us we didn't get cleaning until after a two hour nap. And let's just say that was my highlight of the day! *wink ;) The one bad thing that really gets me this weekend is we went to the store last night and got back late and when we return our farm gate and is at the end of the driveway was gone and the chain was laying on the ground So If you have seen a 2 Red six foot farm gates please let us know. Our guess is that some high school teens stole it. At this point however we can't do much about it. But we do know it is the frist and last time we have a nice gate out front. Happy Thanksgiving! :)

WHAT?

I think she misunderstood
It's Cat and the Hat
Not Cat "AS" a Hat

Monday Morning Coffee

Well by the time of this blog I might should say Monday Night Coffee. But anyway It is Monday and a new week. I have been and still am busy cleaning today getting ready for family to come in to town for the week for Thanksgiving. I have so much to do and not sure how it is going to get all done for my time runs out. Other then that today have been a okay day nothing to write about. It did rain tonight. Woopiee!!!

Vineyard

Well. Saturday night was a really good night. We start off helping Debbie's boss move some desk and office stuff in their new office downtown. Then we headed out to Evans, GA where Debbie's spends most of her time working in. It was a really nice area. One that I think we could spend more time in in the coming years. We ended a nice night kinda like a date night stopping by Starbucks to get a nice hot cup of coffee or for me a nice iced coffee. We got up this morning and went to Vineyard Church out in Evans. It was a nice church. Smaller then I would thinking it would be but was nice. I enjoyed most of all that it had a cafe/family feel. It smelled good with all the candles in the building. I am guessing they had about 30 or 40 lite all around. and then really nice crosses and wall posters hanging off the walls. The Pastor was even a CIU grad. Over all it was okay. Other then that we ended today watching a 2 hour movie of 24 that aired on FOX tonight.

~Neat Picture I Found~

Yes I know it is not Veterans Day but I found this picture the other day and had to post it.

Mr. Sock

It seems as if Emily can't keep her socks on. We went shopping the other day and found that Emily was missing a sock. So Debbie and I go hunting for it in the store. We found it next to the ice cream. Hummm.... I think she might be saying something. We get home and her sock is gone again. this time it is in her car seat. I get her up today and find that her sock is on the floor next to her crib. (is she trowing things now?!?!) I one again put it back on. After feeding time I find that once again it is missing. This time after running around the house looking for it I found it in her seat on the table. This time I just left it there. I think is a new kind of game she is playing with daddy. Well I am not sure if it a really fun game at this point. I am just waiting to see what happens when she gets shoes. What joy! :) Note: In the picture she has only one sock on! But still seems to be happy. Soon I think she will just walk away.

Halloween to Christmas, What happen to Thanksgiving?

It seems like just a few days ago we had Halloween now walking in Wal-mart the other day I noticed everyone is ready for Christmas What happen to Thanksgiving. I am still trying to get things ready for thanksgiving and in the middle of it all, every store I go into has only Christmas stuff. I am not sure but did I miss something?!?! In other news I it COLD outside. I have been cold all day. I think the high was in the 40s. I am told that here in the woods is colder then other places. You would think that Ga is a warm state. But after talking to a few people I am fining it is warming in SC this past week then here. So. I guess with it now cold and the stores ready for Christmas, lets say bring on the Snow! I am cold even thinking about it.
Oh Well maybe I will have something worth bloging about later.

Monday Morning Coffee

Well we are back to a new week of work. Debbie is at it again but this time in a suit. Emily keeps rolling over, I think she is just going to roll everywhere instead of walk. I so could not get up this morning. I myself rolled over a few times, till Miss Emily had to wake me up with her smelly room. After cleaning Emily up and airing out her room I had to go for the Monday morning coffee. (Bless my wife for making it this morning.) Now after two cups I am ready to get on the ball and start doing something. Humm... I have a list of things that needs to get done. And the only thing that seems like any fun would be playing with Emily on the floor. Maybe we can see who can roll over the fastest. Well maybe not, I don't think she could pick me up off the floor. Plus I know she would win the rollover game. Last night was a night to put in the books of the "Deep Woods" of GA. Some guy in a pick up comes down the drive wanting to know if we have seen two cows. (Do cats count?) He says that he had two donkeys that ran after his cows. One even took a bite out of one cow's ear. After talking with him a short time and getting his phone number he left and I went on doing my yard work. (I think he had a little too much to drink) Once my work was done and it got dark I went in for a nice dinner Debbie made. One I think could work for my restaurant in the years to come. So after dinner we noticed car lights driving up in the driveway. Out step someone and they came to the door. I met the man in uniform. ( A GA State Trooper). He said that we had cows at the front of our driveway and wanted to know if they were some of our pets that got out. I told him about the man who came a few hours before him and gave him the number I got and he gave his thanks and said he would go back and babysit them till someone got there. SO the Cows are saved and all is well. It was just another night in the "Deep Woods" of GA.

Rainy Days!

Well today was day two of Debbie being sick. So like anyone would do when they are sick we went out and spent the day in the city. No really we did. We went to the bank then out the eat then back to the bank then to get gas and then to take a few hours at the coffee shop. It was nice to get some time out of the house. Emily and I don't get to get out much anymore due to not having a car to go anywhere and it is about 20 miles to town. Other then that it rained all day and was cold. Debbie is set to go back to work in the morning and I hopefully will get back on track. At least for the day. No telling what will happen this weekend as family may be coming in for a few days. Some days I wish we had our own house that we could call ours, I could plant anything, change anything and do what I wish with out asking anyone. But for now for free rent we will stay where we are till we get back on our feet and sadly a bit later.

Trash Day!

Today was a great day! Emily and I got to go out to wal-mart and then take the weekly trash to the dump. It is on trash days I feel a truck would be a great thing to have on hand. Emily enjoyed taking a ride.








Emily loves to get out of the house and see the sun. She sang the whole time while in the car with a CD I had going. I think she likes music. We ended the day making a nice dinner for Debbie. It was a really good butter chicken with rice, vegs and a nice wine.

~Debbie's 1st Bottle~

Today was the 1st day Debbie got to feed Emily a baby bottle. She seemed to enjoy the fact she could stay at the dinner table with the family and didn't have to leave in the middle of it.

Septic Tank Clean Out!

WoW!

Oh Crap!

Swiss Army

Shopping Trip! After a nice long few hours out with my Dad in town shopping I got to buy myself a real new Swiss Army Knife. I have been wanting a pocket knife for years now. Plus leaving on a farm I can't live without one. I have been asked over 5 times by people if I have a knife on me. So I guess I can now say yes I do.

Rollover!

Yay! Emily has master rolling over today. It is not a really good picture due to it being on my cell phone. I would lay her on her back and once I leave the room or hid she rolls over then smiles. I roll her back over on her back and then she once again rolls over when I leave the room. Now I got to peek and watch her from the other room and got her in the middle of rolling over with the camera. Great Job little Miss! now for the walking part!

~Wish List~

Okey time for my Wish List! Here are a few things I am wishing for this year.


A Braun Series 7 Razer. I have been looking for a good razer for years and have come down to this one. It has great reviews and it even cleans it's self. It may be a little pricey but a razer that works is worth what it cost. Plus I spend about $30 a month on trow away ones. That is $360 a each year. Why not get something that is cheaper and will last longer then a few days.

A Sushi-making kit this kit is not that bad it is one of the only ones I can find online that has so much stuff that comes with it. It Includes one serving plate and two wasabi bowls from our most popular set of sushi dishes, ceramics with colored glossy glaze bordered with matte black, available in blue or turquoise. This set also provides a rice spatula, bamboo sushi mat, rice mold, sashimi knife, two pairs of wooden chopsticks, and instructions for preparing sushi rice and maki rolls. I love that fact it comes with a knife. For more info..... http://wokshop.com

Top of all else would be a Xbox 360 60GB Storage, wireless controller, headset, and so much more. in the past few weeks they have gotten cheaper then when they 1st came out. I currently have a old Xbox and Debbie and I like to play together when we have time. When we lived in Tn a few years ago we played the Xbox a lot in the evenings. So this is really a joint gift for us both. and would a Xbox 360 be like without the best game in the world the new Fable 2! :) For more info.... http://xbox.com


We can't forget a bike trainer. With me spending more of my day indoors taking care of Emily I can't get out as much as I would like. When we lived in TN I got a nice bike and I would have time each day to go out and ride at the park and Civc Center. But again I just don't have the time with caring for a baby. I hope when Emily gets older we can get a bike thing to put behind it and pull her. That is what Debbie is hoping for.

I am sure there is many more things but most of all I would have to say my biggest wish for the Holidays is having a great time with family and enjoying Christ's birth with my own baby girl and great wife!
