What a HOOT! I have never laughed so hard. My regret is that I did not have a movie of the half time show. Move over Magic Cheerleaders these guys are coming through.


Katie played a good game. Those seniors were tough though. They had tricky moves like putting the ball inside of their shirts so you couldn't see who had it.


Everytime I see a photo of these two the first thing that comes to mind is "Aren't they cute?"
These two together... I think of other things to say, such as "Oh dear."

Powder Puff Game Tonight!

Austin was showing us some of his more advanced maneuvers this morning. After his split he started walking funny and mumbling about stretching. I hope he recovers in time for the game this evening. It should be a good show.
(Jim says he is starting to get a little worried about number 2 son.)
Thanks to Ashley for her debut as a makeup artist. He looks real pretty Ash.

The Shuttle Has Landed...

It is an amazing thing to me how I can be scurrying around with the tasks of the day and that sonic boom hits the roof and I get a catch in my throat. Maybe as one of the many Challenger witnesses I will never realize a shuttle landing without getting a little teary eyed. Welcome home astronauts!

Doug's new position with Bellsouth requires him to fly overseas. This are pics from Dubai and India.



Kicken it up a Notch.
It's been 8 months since Retto ended up on injured reserve and Fanny took over his job. Now he and Ashley are ready to get back in the ring. Good Luck you two! Oh and there is word that Ralph is coaching in Kentucky. Who knows maybe the whole team will be up and running again. We just need a nice cold spell up there so he will fly south. Another thing, dont think Fanny is retired because I have some fun things planned for her. I am reclaiming my pony! Kinda like a death wish you might say if you knew her well enough.
I sent Adam a photo of his tank and thought I would share.

Nice Shades !
Adam and Desiree shared a photo of their cool 3D glasses. They went to an Imax movie at the zoo in Minneapolis.

Looking forward to seeing these two at Christmas!

I helped Katie's Mom take photos of the cheerleaders last night. It was dark and they move around a lot so it was a nice challenge. Fun stuff!

Carmeled apples, roasted pumpkin seeds, jack-o-lanterns, apple bobbing, Spookable Pooh, and fully loaded nerf guns are all important for a successful 'Almost Halloween' party.









"Leah, watch out for apple snatchers!"

Halloween on Horseback:



Ashley was Christine Daae and Retto the Phantom from "Phantom of the Opera", Alex was a magician and her pony was her magical rabbit,( her pony was opposed to the bunny ears and tail) Tara was a nurse and Fanny was her patient. Interesting how Retto enjoyed the games. I think he loves being back in the action...any action.

D-Rally:
A long day in Brooksville.



Tara and Jessica competed in their first rally! They both did a great job. Ashley and Alex go as C-advisors (translation: they coach and care for a team of D level PCers.) They did a good job as well considering that they were functioning on 2 hours of sleep. They had gone to the Lake Highland Homecoming the night before.
Our annual attempt to scare ourselves:
I will have to say it was just too crowded to be scary. The poor spooky things were finding it quite impossible to sneak up on people.

After I shot this picture a scary thing slunk up behind Ashley and exploded with, "Can you hear me now?" It was actually pretty funny.
Hitting the books:
Ashley and Alex are going to test for the HB! These are photos from a study session in Tarpon Springs last weekend. It was squeezed in with all the Homecoming festivities.






The HB is the second highest knowledge test in Pony Club. The girls are required to learn anatomy down to the smallest bones, tendons and ligaments. They need to have a good understanding of health, diet, feed composition etc. They need to know conformation, how it effects movement and soundness. They need to be proficient at teaching others and be able to present themselves as being confident and knowledgable. The test is Dec 2. Good Luck to Ashley and Alex!
