So we are leaving for vacation tomorrow and won't be back in town until the 15th of September. We are headed to Bartlesville, OK to see Nate's Grandparents and then to Wichita Falls, TX to see my brother, Roger, and his new baby and then finally to Amarillo, TX to see Nate's Grandma. It will be a whirlwind drive but fun to spend so much time together. Nathan's brother John will be coming with us also. (he is currently living with us but we barely see him, it will be good to spend some time with him)

I'll have lots of pics to post when I get back but here are a few random ones that were on my camera.



We all think that Lee looks like Nathan... put Nates glasses on him and the look is complete. Lee thought wearing his daddy's glasses was the greatest thing. Taken today 9/02/09.

Hey, who's that good lookin gal. I think I clean up pretty well. LOL! Pic was taken Sunday 9/31 I was liking my hair so I had to get a quick pic... just to prove to myself that sometimes it comes together. LOL!

Failed Experiment

I was in the backyard and saw this HUGE spider sitting on it's HUGE web... and in it's web there were lots of grasshoppers stuck and wrapped in web. (this year we have been over run with grasshoppers)

I thought! Great let's catch the spider and identify it... and then lets put a grasshopper in with it... Sounds  like fun , huh? That way we would be able to watch first hand prey vs predator.

Well, we did find out that it was a Yellow Garden Spider... but after three long days of no action. (Except Mr Grasshopper and Mr Spider leaving in agitated peace)  We decided to let them go. Maybe, a few sticks would have helped the process out? I dunno? It was a good try... maybe we'll have better luck with our next experiment.

Here are some pics of our little friends.
