Mama Deer and Babies

I almost forgot, that Saturday morning I was looking out the front window to see if the roofers had arrived yet. As I did so, I saw the mama deer and her two babies walking along our driveway and eventually crossed the street. I knew these were around, cause at night when I take the dogs out I could see three sets of eyes staring at me.

New Roof

New Roof

Old Roof

The work for replacing our roof began today at 7:30 am this morning! The dogs barked for the first hour and now its just an occasional bark. Jasmine can see their shadows as they climb up the ladders, so she is set on watching them even with the blinds closed! Auburn has gone back to his normal resting spot on the old sofa. Its almost ten and the new shingles are being carried up now. I am so excited and I can't wait to see the final product. Keeping my fingers crossed that we picked the right color for the new shingle.

Book Tour

I found out that Sara Palin's book tour will bring her here to Birmingham, AL. I am definitely interested in getting her new book signed! I hope with the time frame of the event that I can make it happen.

Hospital Visits

My dad, Mike, had his hip replaced this week. Been traveling to the hospital to visit him after work. So far he seems to be doing really well with his recovery.

Just . . .

needs this week to be OVER!!!!

Halloween

Well, I had no real plans for Halloween. Originally was going to go to the UT vs USC game, but changed my mind during the week. My husband did go and invited Lars to go in my place. Turns out they had rain at the game, really glad I didn't go, but I missed a awesome half time show from the UT band and the first time the players wore black jerseys since 1922. I stayed at home and read on the sofa with the kidos curled up with me. Next year we need to dress up!!!

Grey Bar

Upon leaving La Paz, we headed out to the Grey Bar. One of my co-workers had family who were going to be playing at the bar that night. Great music and nice atmosphere, so we will have to make sure to go again sometime soon! Now that the hubby has finished school we have so much more time for fun activities - we have a social life again!!!
