Somebody PINCH me!!

Preferrably not on the fanny! However, after all the festivities, there is alot of fanny to pinch!







Every once in a while, my DH will surprise me speechless!


Like when he does stuff like this . . .





Elvis is in the house!


Or . . .





The Hammel Camel . . . on a frozen pond!





Or . . .




Betty Boop with the clay pigions . . .






Or Betty Butt with the clay pigions!




These crazy antics just CRACK ME UP!




But then you have things like . . .


On our tenth wedding anniversary, he bought me a rock! A sparkling rock with alot of little rocks on each side of it!






Then, he split an egg and now we have identical twins! hahahahahaha


Talk about speechless!








And now . . .








He buyes me this for Christmas!




















I can not believe it!


Saddles are just as important to this family as they were to cowboys in the old days. It was part of their lively hood. They needed them to work, travel, and exist horseback.



We've told the kids over and over, before we invest in a saddle you have to . . .



Prove you're gonna use it!


Prove you know how to use it!


Prove you are serious about using it!


I have one that has been working just fine. I am a little fat and it is a little small, but just like my jeans, I suck it in and get on with it!
I just can't believe he bought me this saddle!

A Broken Y Christmas

A long predicted snow storm finally blew through Kansas on Christmas Eve. It brought with it gusty wind that would knock you right over and temperatures in the teens.

Out my back door Christmas morning . . . I thought it was just amazing how the wind whirled and howled and made a fuss, only to leave me with these snow sculptures!






The Broken Y Christmas tree! Up in just the nick of time!




A new electric razor to keep that handsome face baby-butt smooth!






All snuggly warm!







Yeah, Baby! I bought this hat right under his nose while we were shopping at Sheplers! He didn't even know it! I am sooooooooo good!







Woody! Do I need to say anything else? Well, yes. They snooped in my closet and found these. I quickly snatched them up, got them wrapped and under the tree and told the K's they went back to the store. You don't snoop in Mama's closet. They were quite upset but really suprised when they found them under the tree!





Rodeo-opoly!










And Finally! These are our "way cool" friends the Gearheads. I mean the Carlson's!

Yes. I must admit. I stole this picture right off her blog, Chaotic Carlsons! She's been known to hack into mine so I will just assume that I have special priviledges!

Chris owns Chaotic Customs. You need your ride "pimped" then he's the man for the job!



They are also the proud parents of Jader Tader and the infamous Dr. Pepper T-Shirt! She's also Bailey's best chum!




The K's think Karma hung the moon and stars! The love her and are really upset that I don't take them over to her house for "babysitting" time like I used to.

Karma called, said she wanted all the kids for a day. What in the world! Yep! I was to go finish my Christmas shopping! How cool is that. I packed up all four, dropped them off at the Carlson's and said a prayer that the house would be standing, all kids would be accounted for and that Karma would have aged only slightly while I was gone! She is amazing! My four and her four! Mind you, six of them were boys!

So, on Christmas Eve, Chris and their oldest, Drew come pulling in the drive during the ridiculous freezing cold blow that had yet to produce snow! They were baring gifts! Two to be exact! FOR ME!!!

So . . . I'm keeping it real . . . no make-up on Christmas morning. The only requirement is brushed teeth!


Decorative stepping stones! Complete with little K hand prints! I just love them!!





Karma is an absolute doll of a friend! What a blessing! I love you, Karma! Thank you for this beautiful gift of friendship!




Now . . .I hope that Christmas found all of you warm and enjoying the company of family and friends. There is more silliness to come on this blog of mine. Stick with me . . . 2010 will be an adventure, I AM SURE!

Blessings~
