I heart Faces

This week at I heart Faces it's Animals Only week!  I thought I'd post a picture of My Dog Banjo.  He's Big lovable Teddy Bear.  You can read more about my Dog Banjo and his sister Birdie Here!!
For more Animal Photos Go Visit I heart Faces!!



Mans Best Friend

I've just got to figure out what it is about Sean that these dogs just absolutely adore!  I mean he's just so hateful to them if they don't behave correctly but yet wherever he is, there they are.



I guess it's all about respect. That's probably why they don't listen to me...I spoil them too much and they don't respect me. Yeah I know they aren't humans.




He pretends not to be totally in love with our dogs. He pretends to be tough and mean. But yet when he thinks no one is looking (or taking photos with their zoom lens) He loves on them like they are his children.



I know I'm half crazy because I treat my dogs like Humans, but their Mine and Sean's Best friends and they are part of our family!!

Ducks and stuff

I had a very uneventful weekend. I laid around, cleaned my house, dog sat my cousin's great dane, (She's huge! I'm pretty sure she's as big as some of our steers) Oh and I wrapped a few Christmas Presents.

Sean was at The Mouse House (their name for duck camp) all weekend and so Me and Bird were left at home.   Let me just paint you a picture of The Mouse House...

It's a single wide trailer house that I'm pretty sure is older than I am.. in fact I'm almost positive it's older than I am.  It is very run down on the outside...it looks exactly like a camp of some sort or maybe like an abandoned hideout for rednecks. On the inside it's decorated with random furniture and ducks and maps of the Bayou and Hunting magazines and Hunting paraphernalia everywhere!  It smells a little like old feet and I think there might be a reason behind the name "Mouse House"  Its definitely not stayed in by women, I'll just put it that way.  It's perfect for the guys though, and it will sleep lots of people because of all the bunk beads! 

Last year I went up with Sean to turn the water and heat on before season started and we discovered someone had stolen all of his Mojo duck decoys (duck decoys that move) and the bed room door.  Yes you did just read that someone stole the bed room door.  The funny part was that the guys at the camp next door said they helped the old man that lives down the road install a new bed room door in his trailer house.  Coincidence?  I think not. 

This year when we went up there Sean thought someone had stolen his MoJo ducks again and all his hunting clothes that were left there... turns out his Dad had already come to camp and had gotten them so they wouldn't get stolen this year.  Whew!

 Anyway...When Sean came back from the mouse house I took pictures of his weekend kill (more dead animals..I know...)







The other day Melissa Posted a Red Beans and Rice recipe and I just thought I'd post mine too!
This recipe is really easy but not at all made from scratch...sorry.
Ingredients:

Two Cans of Light Red Kidney Beans (Do not Drain)
one 8 oz can of Tomato sauce (you can use two cans if you like extra tomatoey stuff)
1 lb smoked sausage link
1/2 chopped onion
1 tablespoon of butter
3 tablespoons tony Chachere's
1 tablespoon Cavender's All Purpose Greek Seasoning
1 tsp Chili powder
salt and pepper
3 cups rice.

Directions:
Cut sausage into small pieces and put them in a heated pot.  Add beans, rice, and spices.  (when adding the spices I usually just add however much I think will taste good, I've estimated the amount.  You may want to add more or less) Chop onion and sautee it in butter until soft and add to pot.

Let simmer for about 20-30 minutes.  While letting simmer cook your rice (I use minute rice because I'm lazy)

Serve beans over rice and enjoy!!!

Oh just a warning...don't eat three bowls of this before bedtime or your stomach will pop, because mine almost did.

I Heart Faces


Back in October I posted a photo of Sean's friend, Mike, throwing a Steer. It's on this page here. I decided to enter it in I Heart Faces' Constructive Criticism Friday and guess what!? Angie, the co-founder, asked me if she could use it for Fix it Friday! Of course, I said yes! Every Friday since then I've checked to see if my photo was the Fix it Friday photo, and every Friday I was sad to see I'd have to wait another week.

Today I haven't gotten on my webpage or I heart Faces' Webpage until now... 7:00 PM Central (Shocker, I know) Anyway I checked a new post I got from a very nice Lady thanking me for letting them use my photo for Fix it Friday.... My Thoughts were "OH MY GOSH THEY FINALLY USED IT!!!!" and then my thoughts went to, "WAIT!! What was my last post??" See, I had planned on posting this cute, witty, wonderful post on the Friday that I heart Faces used my photo. (You know I'm shameless and I'm gonna use every chance I get to get new readers and meet new people) So what was my last post.....

the top 5 hottest men...

Not cute. Not witty. Not that wonderful...and actually kinda embarrassing...(The same embarrassing I felt in Kindergarden when I kissed my crush on the playground and got in trouble by the principal) I mean, if lots of people are going to click over to see the website of the person who shot an awesome (though slightly overexposed) photo, I wanted them to see Good Photos, and interesting posts.  Not the boys that I think are cute... It's like when you meet your boyfriends parents for the first time. You want to be on your best behavior and look your nicest and put forth the most charming personality. (Ironically when I met my boyfriend's, now husbands, parents for the first time, Sean and I were making out on the couch when they unexpectedly walked in the room..not the best first impression you want to make.) I guess I'm bad at first impressions or something.

But I guess God was shining down on me because the link to my blog from I heart Faces wasn't correct and gave me a "page not found" error... And Sean's parents like me more than him:)   So bad news that people aren't going to come see my blog...good news that I didn't make a bad impression ha!!

Go Check out Fix it Friday every friday at I Heart Faces!!


Oh and just in case people do venture over here....here's a good photo, followed by a cute, funny, witty one!!  I'm off to the Rodeo in the 30 degree weather  BURR!!!




Looking at cute boys,
