Shiner, Big Hair & Kitty's

I've been bad about catching up on all the latest news and events going on in the Geren/Folsom household. Soooo...here goes! Last week I met my sister at the Waco Zoo. It was a beautiful day and the zoo was sooo terribly uncrowded! Yay! We had a really great time. What a nice zoo. My favorite animal to see at the zoo is always the giraffe, but I also found a new favorite. The black swan. I had no idea how beautiful they were! See the beautiful ruffles his feathers make at his tail? Stunning.





Then Friday Michael's whole Third Grade went to the Austin Zoo. Not nearly as nice as the Waco Zoo, but really fun anyway. Michael was thrilled to have me there with him (Unfortunately I forgot the camera for this one!). It was some really nice Mom and son bonding time. AND while I was at the zoo, I got a call from the Census Bureau, I got a job! It is a temporary job, but a really good and well paying gig. I'll take what I can get, that's for darn sure!


Saturday we left very early for Michael's baseball tournament in Shiner, TX. I was so happy to see that Michael played First Base for the entire first game. That hadn't happened in quite a while. he did a great job and hit well too. After the second game, the team headed out to a Mexican restaurant. On the way there Michael was sticking his head out the window enjoying the beautiful weather. He is growing his hair out and when I looked in the backseat I could hardly keep it together. Hopefully it will make you laugh too!


It was a fun night although LOUD with alot of hyper boys. The adults finally began to have fun and relax when the beer and Pina Colada's started coming:).

The town of Shiner is rather small and old, and driving home we saw a neat little park with a huge cannon Michael wanted to see, so we stopped. While we were there we found this really cool time capsule and Michael and I made a date for it's opening in 2037.



Last but not least, a little kitty humor.











THIS is MY box.







I AM NOT fat! I DO fit in here too!


FINE! Everyone knows my Target bag is more stylish than your pudding box anyway!
