Alligator Chase

My family and I recently went on a airboat tour of the Everglades. It was fun skimming across the grasslands, going through the twisting Mangrove tunnels, learning about plants, animals, and folklore. However, the highlight was when one of the alligators got a little too close for comfort. You can hear my girls panicking in the background. Personally, I was envisioning a cute pair of shoes or a purse

Chicken Rides Scooter

What do you do when you get a chicken for Christmas?  You name it Rambo, and teach it to ride your scooter!  Gotta love my grandson, Cross!

Ice Skating Fail

Have an ice day! My family and I recently went to Gatlinburg, TN where we went ice skating. By “we went ice skating”, I mean I cheered from the sideline. They no more stepped out onto the ice when an announcement was made to clear the ice. In this video, you can see the show my family put on long after everyone else had gracefully skated out of the rink. Notice at the end of the video, the workers do not look pleased at how long it took us to clear the ice. I can’t say that anyone in my family took to the ice in an exhibition that showed off their masterful skating skills; however, they were very entertaining.

Goldfish

          A little blob of orange. I have a grandfish named Bulls Eye (he has one red eye). I want to give my grandfish, Bulls Eye, a shout out! When I press my face against the glass, oohing and ahhing as I watch Bulls Eye, he swims to the front of his bowl as if to say, “Oh, hey Nana!” For two years this little poop machine has swam circles around his bowl. My daughter told me she is already concerned about the day that Bulls Eye dies; she actually caught her husband talking baby talk to him/her this week. This little blob of orange was won at a school event; however, his accessories cost far more, yet the smiles on the faces of family members definitely make up for it. It is sad to think that one day little Bulls Eye will end up in a commode. In the meantime, I guess we need to work on goldfish funeral etiquette.

Stinky Feet in the Classroom

      Stinky Feet. As I finished my attendance, I glanced up only to discover that one of my students had taken off his shoes and thrown his socks right on the floor. His left foot was perched right up by his nose as he smelled away! I could actually smell this stale Dorito odor wafting up towards the front of the class as his peers began to snicker. To be honest, I was a little jealous that he could get his foot so high with such ease!

Say Cheese

Sweet Memories! My four year old grandson wanted to take a picture of his older brother and me! So, I now have about 12 pictures just like the one you see here!
