I am okay, but the Audi...








...wasn't so lucky. These pictures are ones I took at the body shop. I didn't want to look at the car at the scene so I waited till I had a skilled professional to walk me through everything and hold my hand. It's kinda like seeing a loved one in the ICU (minus a classless joke about taps playing, sorry B). The accident was no big deal, c'mon I was in an Audi for heavens sake; but the other guy spun 180 degrees; but he is okay too. If you can belive it he is a mormon from the Holladay area, circa 30 years ago by way of New Jersey. It was just too bad we met like this. Believe me I am fine, even for something as small as this I am glad I have gap insurance. I will let ya'll know the final verdict about the 'ol girl once I hear from the body shop.

Just a few of my favorites!

This is perhaps our all time favorite Christmas photo



Our first night with him home











































We our having some issues down loading our Thanksgiving photos and our Glama is not patient about the lapse in in new K-Man photos. So I decided that perhaps we should reach into our archives and pull out our favorites from the last year. I hope you enjoy!

Ssssssssssnake Farm!

When Uncle B came down South to help Cookie bring our stuff down we knew that we had to do something AMAZING, and what could possibly be more amazing then a trip to Snake Farm?!?! I first lay ed eyes on this fine farm a couple of years ago when Cookie and I came for a visit and we drove past it. I thought to myself now there is a destination! So it seems fitting that on our maiden voyage to Snake Farm we bring my favorite twin brother.
4 GIGANTIC Snakes, snuggling up close. K-Man and I were brave enough to be this close (courtesy of 4 in glass cages)

K-Man made friends with this little Chickie who spent the rest of our trip following K around the farm

Spidy Daxon was kind enough to show K-Man the ropes when it came to Trick or Treating in Texas. Apparently its done on a golf cart.

It should come as no surprise that Halloween is one of our favorite Holiday. With 2 sisters born on the same week we always had a huge party to celebrate(o.k. they had a huge party and I lurked behind the couch watching). There was always so much excitement with picking out your costume and decorating the house (which we always did Conference weekend). Naturally my favorite part of Halloween like with most things in my life is the food. Glama would whip up batches of Halloween cup cakes and drop them off at the neighbors houses. It was great because she would let us do all the doorbell ditching. As we got older we adapted instead of trick or treating Glama, Mindurs, The Martin Girls, Auntie Nelda and I would hit up Witches Night Out in our best witches hat to cackle amongst our own kind. Then head back to Mindurs for soup salad and gossip!

This year we Pollywogs find ourselves find ourselves out of reach of Glama's yummy Halloween cup cakes and on our own for festivities, talk about scary! So we do what we do best....improvise. With the always fun GrandJo we hosted a Halloween party fit for any witch or ghoul.
