More of the state Fair of TEXAS....

A few more views of the State Fair of Texas....

lots of people....

lots of food....

lots of things to see and do...

Happy Thursday....



Looking up...

there's a local radio station that has a saying...

Look up...cause that's where it all is...

I love looking up at the sky....

it can make a bad day turn happy...

just looking at the clouds...the sun...the moon...

see the cross in the 1st photo....

Look up....what do you see?



Views from the Train

A few scenes from the Train to Dallas.....

you see such different sights on the train...

when your in the car...

you see cars...and more cars...

and can't always enjoy what is arround you...

Watch or ride...

Ferris Wheel...

I love to look at them...
they seem so magical...
but I've never actually got on one...
I'm not a fan of hights...
but more than anything..
I don't like the idea that I can't just get off when I'm ready...
So do you like to ride...
or are you a watcher like me??



looks like fall is coming to Texas...

a few signs are starting to show up...

the morning glories are sure enjoying the cooler weather..

and the rain we have had...

I can't decide if the purple or the pink are my favorite...

I just love the heart shaped leaves....

still hard to decide....

pink...purple....

I think both....

still spreading.....

Guess where we went????

Can you guess where I went yesterday???

yep..that's right....

The State Fair of Texas....

we started the day with rain...

but it left around midday...

so we hopped on a train...

and went to the Fair...

stuffed animals every where you look...

I mean who wouldn't want to spend $40 for a $4 animal...

oh you know you want to try....

every winner is guaranteed a prize....

duh...

this is what they were shouting out....

not everyone is guaranteed a prize...

LOL...

lot's of duckies....

Quack....Quack...

oops sorry...my Grammie is coming out...

rides....

fun houses....

horsies....

oops there's Grammie again..

more rides....

cotton candy...

carmel apples...

chocolate covered strawberries...

too many goodies....

I was a good girl though...

hubby not so much...

he ate his way though the fair....

a fun day and evening at the Fair....

Happy Thursday...

thanks every one for the great comments...

on the big "M"

gives me lot's to look forward too....

LOL....

my sweet grandson will be 3 months old tommorow...

wow does the time fly...

seems like my posts are becoming a lot about him...

but since I watch him everyday....

that's what tends to happen....

Well the calendar says it is officially fall...

and looks like it may be headed to Texas...

next week we will be in the 80's...

we've had some great skys lately....

and the morning glories are loving the below 100 temps...

the lantana is doing great also...

little bunny is enjoying it also...

Happy Thursday....

What is your favorite childrens song?

when I was a kid I loved...

B...I...N...G...O...

now I'm loving The Ants go Marching ....

it's in your head now isn't it....

Changes...

Changes....

I have had a lot of changes in the last year and a half...

my son got married...

I lost 70 lbs.....

my daughter turned 21...

I have a grandson...

my husband and I have become closer...

with more time to spend together...

now that the kiddos are grown...

and now....

I think I'm starting the big M....

MENOPAUSE.....

most of the ladies I know have had hysterectomies...

so they don't have any thing to share with me...

what to expect....

I know you can look it up on the net...

but it is not the same as hearing about it 1st hand...

my cycles for the last year have been...

short...long...heavy...mild...

I think I've had a few hot flashes...

but here in Texas it's hard to tell...

it's so darn hot in the summer..

everyone has hot flashes...

my mind wanders....

get sappy over silly things...

also mad as a hornet over other...

have a hard time staying focused...

So ladies....

please pass on your wisdom to me...

am I starting the big M...

or am I just going nuts????

I'm still here....

I'm still here....

it's getting hard to find time to post...

and to visit....

but I'm going to keep plugging along...

seems like most of my photos these days are of baby...

or of the dogs for their blog...

My three boys and a bird dog....

I'm so happy I had my children young...

I couldn't imagine being over 40 with a little one full time...

I love all my time with him...

but I get to send him home at night...

of course I miss him when he's not here...

we are a little cooler in Texas here today...

high will be below 95....

Happy Tuesday...

Ladybug.....ladybug....

every where I looked today...

I saw ladybugs...

Happy ladybugs...

ladybug on a bag...

ladybug tools....

soft....comfy ladybugs...

made me think of Nana...

aren't these clouds fluffy....

had a good day today...

got errands run...was at Walmart at 8:15 this morning...

not very crowded...but by the time I got out of there...

BUSY......went to Dollar Tree...

love that store...everything $1.00...

got a lot of house work done today....

maybe the city won't condem my house now...

ready to start a new week....
