Autumn in CNY

I had to meet a client yesterday at Jamesville Beach. It was so beautiful. Since I was a few minutes early, I couldn't resist getting a few shots of the scenery.  I know this will sound cheesy but the trail was completely covered in yellow leaves.... all I could think of was the yellow brick road.

SNL Palin Rap.... Absolutely Hillarious!!!!!!!

To watch you'll need to turn off the music at the bottom of the blog.

BFF's


This is what it looks like to be 5 and 3.... and truly best friends.

It's that time of year again.

Skip this entry if you can't stomach hunting.
This is not anything that I could personally do but Brian LOVES it. 
The months of preparation... reading, trail cam pictures, tree stand building, and lots of other things that I know nothing about. Being around this my entire life it doesn't faze me anymore. (Well, the only thing that bothered me is a couple of years ago when Brian, Patrick(my brother), and Steve(best friend) butchered a deer themselves in our garage. If I had installed a strobe light in the garage and video taped it I probably could have made YouTube's most popular videos.... and then CPS would have come and taken the kids from us.) Brian's response to this? Now picture him with a blank stare, looking at me saying, "Why wouldn't I butcher a deer in my garage?" This makes as much sense to him as if he were frying a turkey out there. No big deal. 
Me... I was appalled and quickly got the kids in the car and stayed away for a couple of hours. 
I do have to say that they did have a cute little assembly line thing going on.
I believe Steve and Brian cut (with various methods) while they passed it to Patrick who was in charge of the vacuum sealer. Patrick's work station was the work bench. 
When I returned home there wasn't much left.... (the head I think.)

Well, the season has started again. Brian is up at camp this weekend with his bow and muzzleloader. He got a doe yesterday. 
This will be the scene for the next couple of months.
I will keep you updated with the weekend battles of
Brian vs. NYS Deer Population.
At the end of the war we'll see who came out on top.
Any wagers out there??? :)


I  sure do hope it wasn't this pretty little Bambi. I took this photo last February. Run sweetie, run!!

Let me slip into something a little more comfortable.

We weren't even home an hour. Brian and I were still unpacking the car and this is how she sashayed out to the driveway. I am guessing to her, being with out a princess dress for a little over a week was torture. I am thinking it's like when you are uncomfortably dressed up for something and all you can think about is getting into a comfy pair of sweats or jammies. This is what it must have felt for her. Being in conventional clothing and bathing suits all week was tough. I love that she was in such a frantic rush to put it on that she put it on backwards and with only one glove too!
Princess Elizabeth has regained her throne and is once again ready to rule her subjects (all her dolls and stuffed animals.)
