Nitro vs. Buck



Last night Jeremy and I went to Texarkana to get my older brother and belt from Cavenders. We went to Tractor Supply, O'Reily's, and then Popeyes for supper. Then we were off to home. Everything was going good until we got about 4 miles from home when we hit a buck. It scared me pretty bad because I've never hit a deer or even been in a wreck. But we pulled off the road and checked out the Nitro and of course the deer. Apparently going 60 mph in my Nitro and hitting a 6 point buck does dont go together when they collide. Luckily we were not hurt and have full coverage on my vehichle so we will only be out our deductible. So I'm taking it this afternoon and leaving it to get fixed while we are off to Tennessee to my family.

Dogs, dogs, and more dogs.

Goldie and Ruger like to play together and love to get their pictures taken.

Night in Texarkans

We love this place!


Jeremy and I decided to have a date night for just the two of us, somehting we have not done since we got moved out into our new house. We had decided to go to Texarkana. We went to Cavenders to get Jeremy some jeans and look at shirts and boots. Then we went to Gander Mt. just to browse around and see if there were any new goodies we wanted. After we played at Gander Mt. for a little while we went to the Roadhouse for supper. It was great as always and we even had some food left to have left overs the next day. The trip was a well needed one so that Jeremy and I could get out and have some time to ourselves and get away from some things.
So, apparently taking pictures while driving is not a good idea, but this one is the best one we got.

While At Work

Well, I have taken up a new obsession while Jeremy is at work. During the day I normally have school, wash-dry-and fold clothes, clean house, make plans for supper, check cows, and various other stuff. Most of this stuff does take up most of my time while he is at work or at least it keeps me occupied. But I have decided to take up an old hobby. A couple of years ago my parents got me a sewing machine so I decided to drag it back out and use it again. So far I have made some pillows and curtains and am planning other things to make. My only problem is I have to drive 30-40 miles away to get material and stuff because our local wal-mart does not sell that stuff anymore. I have not bought any new fabrics/material yet, I have just been using up some that I already had from a few years ago. Well I'm going to go and work on getting some more projects figured out. Any ideas, let me know.




the cows are one o fthe curtains I made and the other are a couple of pillows. one with puppies the other with deer and bears(wildlife scenes)

Saturday night we had Josh and Ashley over and I made fajitas. They were great and we have decided the homemade ones are better than any mexican restaurant we have ever ate at. They were wonderful. We also decided to take a break from working on the house and everything on Sunday. We fixed a deer stand and got it all put up. We got to ride on our new 4-wheeler and play with it and got to check the deer cameras. We've got a pretty good size buck on one of our camera's and also got a few coons. Well that's all for now. Check back later for more.
