Obsession

To put it mildly....We've been OBSESSED with Wii Band Hero since we got it last weekend.

Ross does the singing...or something like it...

I jam out on the drums...........

And Wes rocks out on this............

So that's where I've been lately :)

Gotta go...duty calls!!!

Slacker...

I've been slacking lately on my blogging, which I'm sure you guys know. It's pretty much because not a whole lot has been going on around here. But, that being said, I still have some pictures from the last week that you might find funny.

Wes, Ross and I went to our friends Becca and Skippy's house for dinner a few nights ago and Ross got to play with Gia, Becca's daughter. She's 2 and is one of the funniest and cutest kids ever. Here's Ross with her Yo Gabba Gabba dress up kit!

Hilarious!

And here is Ross and Gia taking a swing ride in a quilt. It was nonstop laughing!

Lately, Ross has been wanting to go on "dates" with me. This usually means us going to McDonald's or somewhere else to eat just the 2 of us. But with all the snow we've been getting we haven't gotten to go anywhere. So we had a picnic date upstairs on our window seat so we could overlook the snow. Here's a picture of my date!

Handsome!

Also, a couple weekends ago Ross got to go to Paragould for a couple of days (before the snow hit) and one of his activities was getting to paint a stool with his Papaw. This is a stool that I had built with MY Papaw years ago so it was really neat that it's still around! Here's him concentrating on painting....He told me that he was a great painter!

Note the "tattoo" he got in Maui...AND the concentration on his face!

Yesterday was Valentine's Day and the 3 of us spent it together at home and it was wonderful! I got a nice drawing from Ross and a very sweet letter from Wes. I couldn't ask for better guys in my life!

Well, that pretty much sums up all that's been going on around here. I hope everyone's having a great Monday!

Super Bowl Sunday!

Today is Super Bowl Sunday!! I'm so excited because my Colts are playing in it and have a really good chance of winning! Now don't get me wrong, I've liked the Saints too this year but my loyalty to the Colts far outweighs that!

This picture is from a couple of weeks ago but it's what Ross and I will be wearing again today so I thought I would post it! We are about to head to Blake and Carol's house for the big party after I make my guacamole. Yum!

Hope everyone's had a great weekend!

Oh and I know I've still not posted Hawaii pics but they are on facebook so I'm sure most of you have seen them! If not, then go look...haha!

More to come...

Isn't he cute?!

Hawaii or Bust

Well, after a long wait we are finally leaving for Hawaii in the morning. I wish I could be excited but I'm so stressed out at this point that I'm about to pull my hair out. Thankfully I packed all 3 of us yesterday so that was taken care of already.....yay me!

For starters, the cat started chewing at his paw again so that meant an emergency trip to the vet this afternoon. Thankfully he's fine. We've also been briefing our house sitter, Pef (not his real name), on all the duties that are involved (which with 2 pets is alot). And it took me FOREVER to figure out how to print our boarding passes...I've never had this much trouble. Plus it's 6:30 and I still have no clue what we are having for dinner.....Oh and Ross is going ABSOLUTELY CRAZY because I'm guessing he's so excited about tomorrow.

AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Lord, help me please...

On a good note, I got my hair and nails done today so I at least look presentable. I'm so ready to be on the beach......

Hankers and Hoowadi

Our cat Hank (technically he's mine but likes Wes better) had to go in to the vet last week to get neutered and we also had him declawed (front paws only) while he was there. I picked him up a couple days later and he was doing great. We left with strict instructions to keep him from jumping, batting at things with his paws, and just keep him "still" in general.....yeah right!

After a few days, the poor kitty started looking like he was bleeding on one of his paws. So I immediately called the vet and they had me bring him back up to have it checked out. Turns out the stinker had pulled out his suture....poor little guy. They had to sedate him again to clean it out and suture it back up and we got to pick him up this morning.

When they came around the corner with him THIS is what we saw....

How pitiful!!! He is NOT happy with his new accessory. I tried to tell him that it brings out his eyes but he doesn't believe me....he's just ticked.

So lucky me, Hank got all new prescriptions and was again given STRICT instructions to rest, rest, rest. I've also got to keep him somewhat locked up so that he stays still and out of trouble....for a whole WEEK! Seriously that's just torture on a kitty! And us!

Anway, that pretty much sums up all the interesting things that have happened around here lately. We are still counting down the days until warm and sunny Hoowadi....and yes that's spelled correctly....because according to Ross it's not Hawaii....it's Hoowadi! 6 days!!

Christmas Money and Waders...

Well, it's been a while since I've blogged and I thought I would show some pictures of the recent happenings around here.

First of all, Ross got some waders from Ms. Carol and Mr. Blake! They were Maverick's (their youngest son) and he outgrew them so they are letting us use them. Ross has never been duck hunting and I don't think he's going to go this year either but to say that he likes the waders is definitely an understatement! He wore them around for the next couple of hours and probably would be wearing them still if they weren't in the garage at the moment!

Hilarious!

After much debate between a new Leapster game or a guitar, Ross decided that he would start early on learning a musical instrument and purchased a new kid guitar with some of his Christmas money. Wes tuned the guitar to a G so now he plays the G chord constantly and LOUDLY. He and his daddy play at least once a day, with Ross making up random songs about the dog, the cat, some guy named Uncle Bill, etc.....Like father like son!

Typical "jam" session

Rock 'n' Roll...Morgan style!

I hope everyone's new year is going well so far. Our's has been uneventful which is the way we like it! Here in about 10 days the 3 of us will be on a plane headed to Maui!!!!! We all cannot wait since it's been so stinkin' cold here lately. I'm so ready to pack all of my summer stuff and go someplace warm! I've been checking the weather for Maui lately and it's been steadily in the high 70's/ low 80's. It's going to be marvelous!

Have a wonderful week!
