No Cowboys here in Edmond, just Turtleboys!

We went to a "turtle farm" today - it's actually a friend's uncle's hobby to raise/breed turtles and she took our MOMS Club there. He had all sizes and many types, but this one that you see in the video clip was our fave - his name is San Diego (he came from the San Diego zoo), he's 40 years old, and weighs 700 lbs! Alex was hesitant at first to even touch the turtles, but San Diego kept following Alex around because he was carrying a big bag of red apples, so they bonded and this is what I saw next...

SUch a cool day! Alex is so excited to tell Daddy all about it when he gets home tomorrow night. We're looking forward to Andy coming home and it'll be a busy weekend - I'm sure we'll find time to go eat sushi and visit the pet store! Oh and go to either Blockbuster or Best Buy (or both!), plus Andy has to mow the yard and we promised Alex we'd go Halloween costume shopping (he's between a Power Ranger, a Ninja Turtle, or a Transformer, but we'll keep you posted!).

Tootles!

Oh no, I'm in big trouble...

This is what I found this morning when I went to feed the fish...

Poor thing - he reminds me of the scene from Finding Nemo, being sucked into the vacuum.

Andy's been out of town for over a week now and I've killed one of his fish. I am just not to be trusted with the care of them (this is the second time he's gone out of town and I've killed one of his fish).

Do you think he'd noticed if I went and bought one the same size?? At least I took pics to show that he was killed by the water vacuum thing and not from neglect on my part.

Happy Hump Day! Tootles!

2 appraisers, 1 realtor and my head is spinning!

I'm zapped of all of my energy...both appraisers came and so did the realtor, again, to take pictures, but she's coming back tomorrow with someone from openhouse.com because they want to take their own pictures. I have a really pretty house, they all want pictures of it!

Good news, I found some good, somewhat stylish, didn't make me want to throw-up after looking at them houses on Remax.com - they've got it going on! We'll be using one of their realtors in MN for sure!

In between getting the house "show" ready, Alex and I had a super fun weekend...

We cleaned Hoppy's tank (Alex's frog, who's a smidge bigger than a quarter and is constantly "playing dead" - he floats, very still-like, but he's still alive!).

Then our friends, Maddy, Abby & Tabitha came over to hang out while their mom and dad went on a much-deserved date! We ate pizza, watched Atlantis and played dvd bingo.

Then the next day Alex and I met up with some friends at the Route 66 Antique Car and Craft show. It was fun, a very nice morning for it, but we didn't buy anything.

It's almost dinner time, so I'd better go fix another gourmet meal for my child (wonder if he wants a turkey sandwich or a hot dog?!?).

Tootles!
