Pumpkin Patch

The weather is finally starting to cool off. So in the spirit of fall, we went to the Pumpkin Patch at Spanish River Church for a good ole gourd fest. Jenn and Bjorn are heading home to Myrtle Beach today after a short 4-day visit. As always, Carter loves the entertainment his cousin provides!

As always, more pictures are posted on picasa.

Quick Trip to West Coast

Gammy, Carter and I cruised on over to Ft Myers to visit my Mom who was taking good care of Uncle Fred after a few days in the hospital. Carter LOVED the beach and we of course loved watching him explore.

30 days as a vegetarian

Well I did it. 30 days sans bird, cow, or pig. It wasn't as hard as I expected! Eating fish helped alot. But I'm kind of feeling like I should cut that too...I read a little bit about the waste that fills our sess pool of an ocean and it isn't quite the clean salty waters I'd imagined the little fishies frolicking in. 

So I'm going to keep going meat-free for now. I lost 5 lbs which was a nice bonus. I am by no means a Skinny Bitch but I do feel good both physicially and mentally about my choice to avoid contributing to the cruel treatment of our animals that goes on each and every day in our country.

Poor little cow...
