Whoop Whoop!! We've got a birthday boy in the house!! Happy Birthday, Alan!! *smooch*
I thought I would share one of my favorite (though not too recent) photos of Alan...
I snuck this shot a couple of Novembers ago with my telephoto lens while he was out in the pasture with Eddie and Hillary... Funny, he hasn't changed a bit! And that's still his favorite hat! *grin*
On a side note, we are in for quite a storm tonight. YAY! We'll take all the rain we can get! It already smells so good, and the cool air coming in the windows is a refreshing feeling after our 85+ degree day. Ugh. But with the thunder and lightening expected, Mister Farley gets to be medicated. He gets so anxious when it storms. Sweet dreams, 'red dog'.
Happy weekend!
Happy belated 40th to Alan! Hope it was wonderful.

Happy Birthday Allan. Even though I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you yet, I'm sure you are a good guy. If my niece loves you, then you must be worthy. I just wish that you two weren't so far away as I don't see myself treking all the way to Texas any time soon. Besides, I hatez bugz!

Oh Oh, Mom brought "Auntie Pasto" home for a few days today. I'm going fishing tomorrow if I have to chop ice! Maybe Monday too. To bad Texas is 2600 miles away!
