Mr Fuz

Here is my parents cat Simon. Ain't he fuzzy. Apollo is here and he says he's never seen something so fuzzy. He says, "Mom, What the heck is it?"

I'm Waiting.....

Ahhh, look Saffie was waiting for his daddies to come back from vacation in Hawaii. I love when she crosses her paws like that. I think it's real cute.

Are you Excited?

Look at this picture of James (who is obviously feeling better, thank God). Now, is he that excited or is Mommy telling him to smile big for Aunt Vickie? HEHEHEHEEH He's so crazy. I love it!!!!!

Cruise Drill

You wanna know what to do if you are on a cruise and hear that there is a drill? Do as you see in this picture....

A First Christmas

This was Sebastian's first Christmas and of course I had to get him a little somethin'. I got him three pieces of clothes. One is a long sleeve onesie that has a fuzzy snowflake and it says "one of a kind". Just like Sebastian.....

Then I also got him his own toy cellphone. It's pretty darn cute. Well, if Mommy and Daddy have cellphones so should he.

Here he is opening a present. Amy said he hadn't been too interested in opening any packages but he was trying to open this one.......thanks Sebastian :-)

Merry Christmas, Happy Birthday & #300

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas. Happy Happy Birthday Grandma.

And lookie here....I have made it to post 300. Can you believe it?

Santa's Coming........

OK kids, go to bed early cause Santa's coming to bring you something special.

Mollie and Simon sent Cybill, Summer, Apollo and Saffie presents in the mail (for real.....). So we opened presents already. I also bought some presents for them too. (Mollie, Simon and Zak will have to wait a bit for theirs).

Here are two pictures of play:

Wishing everyone a Very Merry Christmas.

Nightmare Before Christmas

What's this, What's this, there's something in the air........Oh it's the Nightmare Before Christmas.

This picture is of a few of my Nightmare Before Christmas ornaments. Yeap, i love that movie:-)

31 Flavors

No this isn't Baskin Robins. You wanna see what 31 bags of cookies look like? Check this picture out. Today I did some Christmas Cookie sorting.

My New Hat

Check out my new hat. Don'tcha love it? I know you wish you had one but it's mine and I'm not giving it up. It helps me work harder, can't you tell? hehehehehe

On a side note: James was released today. He is back home and getting back to his ornery self. He has to continue his breathing treatments but is getting better. Of course he came home to a big Christmas package from his favorite aunt.....:-)

My Poor Little Buddy

I found out this morning that my bestest little buddy James is in the hospital. He has pneumonia and RPV (respiratory virus). He is dehydrated. He is receiving antibiotic, fluids and breathing treatments.

Oh my god when I heard this, I wanted to hop on a plane right then. Of course there are many obstacles that are stopping me from doing this :-( It sucks.

So James, please get better and keep being a good boy for the docs. They got to get you better so you can get home in time for Santa to come. I love ya Kid!!!

HighFive

Hey.....Talk to the Hand

Christmas Visitor

My Christmas visitor has arrived. Doesn't Saffie look like she has a mane just like a lion right now. That's funny cause she sneaks cat food like she is one. I think she likes it better than her own food.

Beautiful Christmas Ornament

This may be the craziest Christmas card you will ever see. I got this e-card from my friends, Jim, Tom and Charles. They are brothers I know from way back to my Disney days. These guys are absolutely hilarious. I love them dearly.

Merry Christmas to you too, Punks :-)

I'm Done!!!!!

Tonight I finished my last batch of Christmas Cookies. That makes 31 different batches. I baked my a$$ off this weekend for sure. All the cookies are currently in my freezer and refrigerator. If you want real food, don't come to my house....hehehehe

Take a look.

The Owls

Tomorrow my friend Bianca is having a Ladies Christmas Party. She asked me if I wanted to I could bring a dessert. But of course I would love to. I made cupcakes. Take a look at the picture. They are no ordinary cupcakes. I guess they are not very Christmas like but I don't care, they are cute :-)

Sitting Proud

HEHEHEE....Sebastian is sitting tall and proud. He's eating baby food, and looks to be loving it. Be proud of the food all over that cute little face.

For Thursday, December 13th

Yesterday evening was my company's holiday party. It was at the Westin-Sandy Springs. It was pretty nice. They had gambling tables (blackjack, craps, poker). Everyone got a prize (they call your name, you pick a number and you get the package with that number). I won a powertool.

Here are two pictures of my co-workers: Patricia and her husband Lee

Mike and his girlfriend Heather

Funny thing is, everyone kept asking me where Amy was.........

YUMMIE!!!!!

Now tell me, Do these cookies look good or what?

The Hawk

At the beginning of an Atlanta Hawks basketball game, a hawk flies through the arena and lands on a guys arm in the middle of the basketball court. It was pretty darn cool.

Here is a picture of the guy and the hawk. The picture isn't too great but you can still see what's going on:-)

The Sea

This is a picture of my almost month old cousin Cloe with the needlepoint picture I made for her.

Is This a Waste?

Check out this picture. These two cop cars sat on the street outside my house for at least 25 minutes. (I don't know how long they were there before I noticed they were there). The one cop even got out of his car to smoke a cigarette.

So this is where the tax payer's money goes......

Game Night

Scottie's coworker Lynn had a Game night get together at her house. They enjoy their games and also like to play these games during lunch at work. That would never happen at my work :-(

In this picture is Scottie and two of his coworkers. We are playing "Times Up". We pass around a deck of cards that has famous people's names on it. You have a partner and you try to get them to guess the person. There are three rounds. The first round you can use as many words, hums, and gestures as you can and you can't pass. The second round, you can only use one word and hums and gestures, you can pass. The third round, you can only hum and and gesture and you can pass. You do each round until all cards are used. It's pretty hard but fun.

We also had a birthday cake for Serkan. He turned 24 yesterday.

Going Home

Today was Woodrow's last full day in the United States. He flies home tomorrow morning. We took him out to El Azteca (our old Friday night hang out). The group was Brett, Mike, Heather, Woodrow, Raphael, Sebastian, Patricia, Lee, Kellie, Amy, Kris and I. I had a cool time. We haven't done that in so long.

In this picture is Kellie, Woodrow, Mike, Kris and I.

Entrance to Fun

When you go on a Disney Cruise, you have to walk through the mouse ears to get on the boat. I would recommend everyone going on a cruise at least once in their lives. I know Mom and I are ready to go again.......

Poor Apollo

Poor Apollo hurt his tail Sunday night. I wasn't sure if it was broke or jammed. At first he let out a weird sounding meow. Then he wouldn't sit down on it. The tail was just limp. I would lift it up and it would fall like a dead limb. I was so worried. Monday when I woke up, he wasn't any better so I got him an appointment at the vet. The didn't think it was broken. You could touch the tail and he wouldn't cry. He got an anti-inflammatory shot and they said if it wasn't better in 48 hours I'd have to bring him back.

Apollo slept all evening on Monday. He would hold his tail up some but not all the time. Anything Summer would do (running around, walk close to Apollo), Apollo just laid there so I knew he wasn't feeling well. Maybe the shot made him sleepy. It's just so weird to see him so calm. SOOOO, when I got home from the basketball game last night, he was up and chasing Summer again.

MY APOLLO's BACK!!!!!

For Tuesday, December 4th

Last night my coworker, Kellie and I took Woodrow from APL's Shanghai office to an Atlanta Hawks basketball game. Kellie's husband Brett (who also use to work at APL) joined us. The Hawks were playing the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons won 106 -95.

This was my first pro basketball game so that was cool. Philips Arena has this "Wheel of Prizes". We went and spun the wheel. I won two free tickets to another Hawks game. I was surprised. I don't usually win things.

Here's a picture of Brett, Kellie and Woodrow.

For Monday, December 3rd

Dang it, Don't know if you heard but AT&T Internet service for about 5 or 6 southeastern states were out Monday night. I didn't know that on Monday night. I thought it was my computer and I tried all these things to try and fix it and I was getting P.O!!!!! I found out Tuesday morning on the AM news. SOOOO, that is why I couldn't post on Monday, so here it is:

Here is a picture of a Coke sign displayed at the World of Coke Museum. A coworker of mine from our Shanghai office is here this week so my boss Mary, her daughter Charlotte, Woodrow from Shanghai and I went to World of Coke on Sunday.

I'm Ready

I'm all ready to start my month of Christmas cookie baking. As you can see by this picture all the ingredients are bought and ready to become yummie cookies.

Today is now the 2nd. 2 batches down. MANY more to go......

World AIDS Day

Today is World AIDS Day. I am a full supporter to finding a cure for HIV and AIDS.

Apparently Apollo is a supporter too. He wore his red ribbon with pride.
