Photo collage!

I made this collage (and the ones below), on a program called PhotoScape that Kojak downloaded for me a while back.
I really like it! Don't get me wrong it's not PhotoShop, but it's a great program.
Anyway, I just discovered this feature of the program. It has loads of templates for these collages so I have been having alot of fun. I'll have more up later.

My Prissy Cowgirl!

We went to Aunt Diane's to see the ponies on Friday afternoon. Haley was a little apprehensive about riding one at first but she quickly got used to it.
This little pony was named Star and she was ever so sweet and gentle.

So, she liked her newest adventure so much that she asked if she could have a pony to keep in her room. She said, "It can sleep in my bed." I told her I'd have to think on that one for a while, I can only hope that she forgets, bless her heart.

Note that she is still carrying her purse atop that little pony. Prissy girl!

My Daddy!


Here's Daddy (AKA Poppie)
He's working on the tractor. Come to think of it, he's always working on something.

You can usually find him tinkering with something, whether it's the lawn mower, tractor, weedeater, or tiller. Or he could be working on the pottery shop, his work shed, watering his garden, or plowing the fields. And of course, sometimes you can find him in the house in his favorite chair watching the race or a really good western.

But today, he was outside tinkering with his ancient tractor so he could go plow the garden. Don't tell him I called his tractor "ancient" okay?


Here he is ready to go plow. Daddy, why are you wearing long sleeves in June? Don't you know it's 80 something degrees out?

There must be a wisdom there I haven't obtained yet.



Something went wrong with this picture here (exposure I'm guessing) but it turned out pretty cool I think! Makes Daddys tractor look really ancient! Heehee....snicker, snicker!

Hot Dog!

Seriously, I'm talking about a HOT DOG!

This is Casey.

She is pregnant and she is Hot!



She is daddy's baby! Mom gave her to Dad for his birthday a few years back and she has been a good buddy for him. He has taught her so many really cute tricks!Anyway, they had her bred about 3 1/2 or 4 years ago and she had some beautiful pups. Now they have decided to have her fixed but wanted her to have one more litter. I think she is due around the 25th of June and she is already so round. Jack Russells are very smart and are awesome jumpers but poor Casey is so round she can't even get into a chair.
So, I will keep everyone updated on our little mommy!

Every cloud has a silver lining.......

These sure did and they were very beautiful.......

Lovely, I love those gorgeous rays!

They also brought with them a nice little sprinkle of rain!

We needed that sprinkle to bring the temperature down a little. It's been in the mid-90s all week!

So, I guess this cloud had more than one silver lining.
