The two little guys and I went to Alabama to let the big guy have a couple of days off. We had a great visit except our team didn't do so well. We were 0-2 for bowl games this year. I have some good pictures from the Chik Fil A Bowl that I will have to get around to sharing this week. CBT is quite the photographer we're learning.
My parents have been having a get together for football on January first since I was in junior high. We still enjoy the opportunity to go back and participate. Of course, I took lots of pictures, but I really don't have any pictures suitable to put up from the actual get together because they are all of us either barking orders before people arrived, stuffing our faces endlessly, or napping. I quit taking pictures by the time the game got going because it was pathetic immediately.
I did take some cool shots outside before the festivities started, which will be posted on www.candisnaps.blogstpot.com, and a couple inside. One inside was of an arrangement my mom had made using some ornaments we had when I was just a wee child. While taking the picture, I realized that probably makes it an antique. In this picture, I remember both the gold and the pink balls from my childhood.
Now for an unrelated Public Service Announcement. If you have children - keep them close to you. We had a little incident at a BP station on the way back from Alabama. A man quite boldly came up to CBT in an attempt to move him away from where adults were standing. I yelled at him (as you can imagine.) I was really surprised at how gutsy he was so all you parents out there - I learned I need to keep a closer eye on my little ones than I thought I did.
