Fox sighting

Yes, in addition to coyotes we now have a fox on our street. Yesterday, as we were pulling into our driveway Danny and I spotted this guy. He was enjoying a tasty squirrel out in the middle of the road. He had to be at least 40lbs or so. Next, I'm hoping we might spot bigfoot.

Pink Pig Revisited

Second time is the charm and we finally were able to get to Lenox square early and secure our position to get on the Pink Pig. It was an interesting ride, and I'm glad we did it. Although I don't really think it is anything you should go out of your way to do, unless you are a tradition junkie.

Finally after an hour and a half, we had to leave and go to Cooper's doctor appointment



Good News! He's healthy, in the 75 percentile, and he likes to get flu shots
What a big boy!

Visiting Berry College

We went to Berry College on Monday so Suzy could check out the school. Unfortunately there was nothing open BUT we still got to look around and see the school.

Christmas at Big Canoe

We went up to Big Canoe and had a great brunch with Grandma and Jimmy. If you ever get the chance, Grandma Dannette makes a great breakfast casserole. Yummy!

Christmas Eve Oyster Stew

We continued the Farmer family tradition of Oyster Stew on Christmas eve. This year, we went to Brad and Shana's house for the evening. Of course, the McEver's were the last ones to arrive due to some "last minute" Christmas eve shopping.

My duty was stirring the Oyster stew
