Mary and Mara in High School



Randy took this picture of Mara and me while we were all still in high school. Then I recently took this picture from Randy's profile page on facebook.com... Thanks, Randy! And thanks, world wide web!

(Note: Do I have the same hair cut now that I had 11 years ago? I think I do! Weird!)

Thanksgiving Day 2008


This great pic was taken on Thanksgiving Day 2008 (l-r: Mike, Katie, Elliot, Mary).


Yoink



Yoink is our youngest cat, but he's also the biggest and the heaviest. Go figure.

Once upon a time, there was a birthday fair.

When I was little I used to love going to the county fair which would always show up around the time of my birthday.  Well, where we live now, the fair shows up on Mary's birthday!  What once was tradition, is so again, this time for Mary.  

Here's pics:

Cutie alert!



That's the Gravetron in the background there.


We also met up with our friend, Leslie and together we enjoyed many a fair staple:

deep fried Oreos!



award winning, metaphor laden, diaroma



rediculously adorable drawings



Man Shark!



and of course, cute smiling livestock


They pretty much have everything at the Leon County fair.  Notice how we didn't go on any rides though.  We thought it a little too ironic to celebrate life by laughing in the face of death.  I mean, its a county fair, not Walt Disney World...
