My Life in Pictures: Finally Fall

Finally! I'm posting some pictures. There's not one from every day, but there are quite a few. I didn't put dates cause I can't remember them all. Ok, Enjoy!

On the 1st day of Fall, I told my kids you are supposed to be able to balance an egg on it's end. After we researched it, we found out that if you have enough patience you can do it any day of the year, whether it is on the equinox or not. When I was in college a group of us did stand eggs on their ends on the first day of Fall. So, my class decided to experiment. Now, the only eggs that I had were eggs that had been in my fridge since April. They are ripe! Well, we never could get the egg to stand on its end by itself, but there was a small crack in the floor that we were able to balance the egg in. They kids loved it too because we were able to trick some of the other teachers into thinking we really had stood the egg on it's end. It was great, they were so excited!

Daniel's Final race of the season. He is the blue blur at the back of the line. He came in 6th but finished 1st in the overall points standings for the season. Yay Daniel!!!

Tire marks that Daniel left after the most awesome burnout ever!

So, on my Granny's birthday (September 28th) she called to tell me that she had seen a new calf out in the pasture with our heifer Harley. We were quite surprised cause we were not expecting a calf to be born before December at the absolute earliest. After our birthday lunch, my dad, Daniel, Keri, Julie, and myself went calf hunting to check on it, find out what sex it was, and see if it was ok. It's a boy! We are either going to call it WJ or 83 in honor of my Granny and it being born on her birthday.

After Daniel found it in the field, my dad carried it closer to where its mom was.

So cute!!!

One of the bees that has been frequenting my marigolds by the porch. I was VERY close to it.

I took this before I went to the homecoming game for Dickson. Yay! just playing with the camera

Redneck Party at Laura and Chris' house. This was the turd toss using a Baby Ruth or something chocolatey nastiness that looked really gross when thrown into the old commode.

Sweet baby Ellie. I love her.

The end result of the turd toss. Quite disgusting, but very realistic

Patrons of the Redneck theme party.

The hostess with the mostest, Mrs. Laura or should I say Billie Sue McCoy

Thumbs up for winning the official NASCAR cooler. Now I'm set for Bristol Baby!

Nothing says redneck like a Monster Truck Rally Cake and....

A Dale Jr. before he left D.E.I. and changed his car number to 88 cake.

I swear she looks EXACTLY like one of my neighbors.

Drinking up some 'shine (aka Sprite on the rocks)

Doggie mullet. Don't you think she looks like the hyena on The Lion King that is crazy?

Wooooo! Dale Jr. is #1!!!!! Woooooo!

AFter the party was over, the kids (big and small) decided to roll the front yard, and then immediately clean it up. I loved this pic of them doing this because this little one was REALLY into the pull your arm back and let it fly method.

Playing with the candle setting mode on my camera.

OOooohh. Spooky. Gotta love long exposures for dark lighting.

Baby girl! Super cutie. She was just a laughing and smiling. So cute.

Mesmerized by the ceiling fan.

Mom's big baby Zoe all snuggled up.

Maggie after I cut her hair on her face. She was pooped.

Sophie, Lucy and Bindi, snoozing on the couch.

The four amigas chillin' on Keri and Daniel's bed. I stayed at their house for a few days with my dogs, their dogs, my mom's dogs and my mom. It was fun!
