Hunting!


Axis buck in velvet! (I shot him from the back of a pick-up truck, going down the road!)

8-point whitetail (I shot this one while doing the belly crawl on the ground, b/c I was scared of the mouse that was in the blind!)





My au-dad.
And yes, I field-dressed every one of my kills myself!! Blood up to the elbows. You guys would've been proud of me!

Rest in Peace


Well, Heaven sure is a much brighter place as of this morning. I'm glad my aunt is there in her new body with no more cancer or suffering! I'm sure God is happy to have her home.

At least one thing hasn't changed...


Yep, I still love Starbucks. Made myself double-check this weekend, just to be sure. The peppermint mocha they have around the holidays is SSOOOOO good. That's all.

Been Missin' It


Yeah, it just hit me the other day like a ton of bricks that I miss blogging! Just being able to sit down and express whatever I'm feeling and put it out there to get it off of my chest. It's really an amazing thing. If I just want to be stupid, silly, philosophical, or whatever, I can be--an people actually read it--that's the most amazing part! Yep, I truly miss this blogger world. I think I need it right now. Lot of feelings going on inside of this head of mine! You'll be hearing from me more regularly, I have a feeling....

Before You Say Goodbye


Dedicated to my Great-Aunt, Barbara Wilcox, who today was given 10 days left of life here on this earth.

One more game of skip-bo,
Just one more chocolate pie;
One more loving lecture
Before you say goodbye.

A walk to the springs,
An morning on the porch,
Hot soup in on the stove--
These mem'ries will be my torch.

You've touched so many lives;
Taught so much by your smile.
It's time for you to rest
As you cross that final mile.

Taking pictures on the steps,
Sending cards in the mail--
I don't know how you did it,
Staying strong, while so frail.

You did so much for others,
Saw the good through all the bad.
You're truly my life's hero,
So just let my heart be sad.

I'll see you soon over there.
We'll walk and talk and laugh.
You're in a better place now,
So don't blame me if I ask--

One more hug and cheery smile,
Just one more twinkle in your eye;
One more reassuring touch
Before you say goodbye.

Happy 4th!


Hey... hope everyone enjoys their 4th of July. I miss my family!!! Well, eat some extra BBQ, fried chicken, apple pie, whatever you have for me! And I hope everyone gets to go see some fireworks. I might try to go out to the air force base to watch them if I can find someone to drag along w/ me!

Enjoy your celebrations, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMERICA!
