Wordless Wednesday :: I’m Flying!


I can be a bit of a goof from time to time.  Doesn’t matter where I’m at.  In the comfort of my own home or out in public.  Just like here.  A family trip to Sulphur for a day of fun in the Sun.

Wordless Wednesday :: Broken Fishin’ Poles

Gabbi & I always ride in the same boat when we go Striper or B.A.S.S. fishing with the guides at Camp Cavett.  Always.  This time was no exception.  Our guide this day was quite comical.  He let us do just about whatever we wanted, which did include being pulled in by a huge fish and result and us getting to swim.  That’s one of our traditions at camp.  It was 12 years ago and it still is today.  Although, we’ve grown out of being able to go with the guides, we do our own thing now.  Gabbi & I do fish when we go out, it’s not all fun and games you know.  On this particular day we both caught 36 fish a piece.  This wasn’t including our guide and his catch, this was ours.  While Gabbi & I were having our fun, Gabbi tosses her line out to try and land the “big one”.  Instead of landing the “big one” on that throw, she broke her pole.  Actually it just came apart and didn’t really break.  We both immediately doubled over in laughter and so did our guide.  I think he even made the comment about us destroying things, but you know I think I chose to forget that comment.  We weren’t terrors, just played hard or attempted things that were both out of reach for us.  Driving his boat for instance with the power pedals was an adventure for me.  Hello, I’m short.  I’m not pushing 6ft. and therefore some things just don’t work out like they should.  His boat wasn’t harmed from my driving adventure, it was just a wild ride for all of us.

To prove some of the things we did really did happen, I tried to document most of everything I could.  I don’t want to ever forget the amazing summers I spent with friends, the laughter that was shared, or the somewhat comical (looking back now) adventures that I was able to share with some of my best friends.

The broken pole.  It really did happen.  …only at Camp Cavett would Gabbi & I have such a story as this.

Wordless Wednesday :: the Beggar

Eating with this wee one is a chore.  She’s quite the beggar.  She’ll sit and wait until you either give her something or she’ll wait for you to finish and then hop up on the chair and table to see if  there are any leftovers.  Have I mentioned that this little beggar is my dog?  I don’t remember training her to do this, but I definitely don’t condone it.  I’m trying to break her of this habit, so if any of ya’ll have an idea what I could do to break this wee one of this let me know.

Wordless Wednesday :: Camp Cavett Packing Adventures

At the end of a week long camp, you look around and realize there isn’t a single thing in your bags and you’re leaving from camp in 5 hours.  What do you do?  Take a quick nap, gather everything in a pile and shove things wherever they will fit.  Yes, I’ve done this at camp.  I always left with more than what I came with, always.  One thing that never changed was the late night packing adventures us girls would have a camp.  Long gone are those days, now we rent hotels just to hang out for the weekend at Camp Cavett and get away from our College Lives.

Wordless Wednesday :: Camp Cavett Putt Putt Style

Because there’s not just one way to play Putt Putt.  When you’re with your best friend there are many many ways to play the game.  Even if it requires shooting the ball from the plantar box on the course.  That’s legal, right?

Wordless Wednesday :: Emmie Lou

Our little ball player.  Don’t you dare say the word ball or even show her one, she will go into a fit until you decide to toss that ball.  The ball playing will never stop.  Funny thing is, you probably think I’m kidding, I’m not.

Wordless Wednesday :: Surprise Guest

We all showed up to fish at Delilah’s farm several years ago and much to everyone’s surprise, there were guests there.  You know, I’d love to think there were a hundred of these suckers running around 90 acres, but I’m sure that number isn’t correct.  To a 10 year old these creatures were scary as hell.  Luckily these things left not long after they showed up.

Wordless Wednesday :: Physiology Tutor

I completely loved my Physiology tutor in High School.  Yes, I was “the Brain” in High School.  I took more Science than what was required and excelled in those harder classes.  Dear ole’ Twister loved tutoring me in Physiology or maybe it should be the other way around?  I loved having him around to give me those much needed study breaks from Physio.

Wordless Wednesday :: FisherWoman

Because I can outfish anyone and if anyone chooses to put my title to the test, bring it on.  I’d love to challenge someone to taking on my record, I love a good competition.

Wordless Wednesday :: Weeeee

Flyin’ sideways.  Little Man is quite the Daredevil.  I love to push him as high and fast as possible when I hang out with him.  Live dangerously is the only way to go around him.  I can only bet that those Daredevilish tendencies will become more present with age.
