Hide and Seek

When I was taking some of these photos it looked like the monarch was trying to hide from me. I nearly stepped on a fire ant mound!

Monarch Week on the Blog

Monday, October 10, 2011 1 comments
Good morning all! This week will be nothing but the Monarch photos I shot a couple of weekends ago when I went "fishing" with Papa Seal and Lil Seal. My hubby and son really wanted me to go with them, but we were going out to a different fishing hole rather than our usual spot so I didn't know what to expect. Well when we arrived there were some butterflies enjoying the pollen from some trees in front of the fishing shack and that's where I spent most of my time, just me and the butterflies. Hope you enjoy them.

And thank you Columbus for sailing the ocean blue! :)

I know this isn't a monarch, but I thought it was pretty cool looking and perfect for October

We were all stuck at home for a few days, no work, no school and you had to wear snow boots, a heavy jacket and gloves?!?

This was the temperature outside! I will never complain about it being too cold ever again.

The last photo from our time at the beach and I was reminded of these lyrics while looking at this picture:
Goodnight sweetheart well, it's time to go
I hate to leave you but I really must say
Goodnight sweetheart goodnight…..

You wouldn’t think anyone at the beach would want any type of ice cream, but you would be wrong! When he finally came around to our spot he was nearly out of everything. Wish I were back at the beach….

I always wanted to stop here, but we’re usually in Corpus Christi for the holidays so we never stopped. This time we were there during the Summer and I made sure we stopped. I can’t believe that’s an actual sand castle!

I titled this “Postcards from the Beach” because that’s what this set reminds me of, postcards. We had so much fun and can’t wait to go back...maybe even permanently.

This was Day 1 at the beach. We had so much fun and the water was nice and warm, it felt great! We're usually at the Island for Christmas and I only dip my toes in the water, this time I went all the way in. It was great!

Or at least for me they were. I finally found some on our way back from Frederick one day back in April. The good ol’  Texas – Oklahoma border.

After they came back from weighing in their fish (I think they were perch), they told us they came in at 7.5 pounds each. Those fish seriously looked much heavier than that!

Fish Fry for my Birthday

Tuesday, May 17, 2011 3 comments
This past weekend my hubby finally decided to fry all the fish he’s been catching the past few weeks and we also celebrated my birthday so he also made some chicken tenders, fries (they put Ronnie’s and Pat’s to shame and I’m not just saying that because he’s my hubby) and his best friend brought over some hush puppies that were quiet yummy! And my brother and his girlfriend brought over the cake…from Circle M! Hello buttercream frosting!! So here’s our Saturday in pictures:

Day 4 - 9

Wednesday, April 27, 2011 0 comments
Well I’ve discovered some things since Day 3. First, I love the chocolate shake! I’m tempted to put one in the freezer to see if I can make it taste like an actual milk shake. It’s already thick to begin with, but I will tell you that I actually had to use a small coffee cup and pour it in there through out the morning. Yes, it took all morning to finish one bottle partly because it did start to get warm so I had to put it back in the fridge. Thanks goodness we have a fridge at work! Second, thanks to my new found love of the chocolate protein shake, I think I’m going to change up my meal plan for the day and have my shake for lunch and have my meal of choice for dinner because like melissa commented on Day 2; you never know what will happen for dinner and if my hubby decides he wants to cook there’s no way I can resist! Third, the weekend isn’t as bad as I thought it would be!  The weekends are about the only time I actually have breakfast, probably because I usually make breakfast for Lil Seal, if he doesn’t go fishing with his daddy so I have my cereal. Fourth, in my opinion it takes more than two weeks before you see any weight loss because the first week is spent becoming accustomed to eating only Special K food, unless of course your superpower happens to be Will Power (mine definitely isn’t) so I’ll probably add another week.
Monday I was actually suppose to start Bootcamp at the Y, but thanks to my pinky toe not wanting any part of being stuffed into my tennis shoes, I had planned on coming home and working out on our Wii and having my mom bring Lil Seal to the house, well that didn’t go as planned because a Sprint tower decided to stop working which meant our phones weren’t working either so  I had to stop at my parents house instead making Monday  an exercise fail. So here’s to a better Wednesday!
And now, I know you’ve been waiting for this pic…the chocolate protein shake with the cup I used in the background!
