Rudolph Got Ran Over By My Mama!

Yes, my mother ran over a deer...its pretty catchy if you sing it to the tune of "Grandma Got Ran Over by a Reindeer." Come on you know you want to sing it! I am ! Anyway, last night on her way home right around 5 she was going about 65 (in a 45) and out hops this deer. She hit it in mid gallop. It happened so fast that she didnt even have time to react. So she hit it. It has completely messed up her car. I am surprised she was able to drive it home, but she did. Her front end is messed up including the headlights as well as the driver front fender. Since her fender is messed up it wont allow the driver door to open so she had to crawl out of the passenger side lol! However, I am very, very thankful that she is ok. She was a little shaken up about it especially since it happened so fast. I pointed out that she was very lucky that the deer didnt roll up on top of her hood and come through the windshield...especially since it weighed 200lbs!

How do I know it weighed 200lbs you ask? Well when my dad and brother got home from work and found out she was ok they went to look for the deer. Yes, they did! They found it too! So they brought it home and took some pics of it for the insurance company as well as the car. Then they took the deer to the meat processor and had it weighed. 200lbs on the dot. Then they paid to have the meat processed or whatever it is they do and donated all of the meat to our local Soup Kitchen. I thought that was kind of nice of them. Below are some pics that we took...

The deer WAS a 10pt deer...however, she knocked one side of his horns off.

She broke his hind legs.

Frontend completely smashed up...including the headlights.

Still a little bit of deer fur in the hood.

This angle shows how much the hood bowed up.

This was an experience for her but like I said I am so thankful that it wasnt worse.

Cute Christmas Outfit

Ever since Kaylyn was a baby we had a couple of friends who would always give us girl clothes. They daughter is a year to 2 years older than Kaylyn. So the season coincided too. Which was great. We have been fortunate enough to never have HAD to buy clothes for Kaylyn. Now we have but we have always had an ample amount of things give to us. It in itself has been a huge blessing. So I went to church the other day and my friend Cindy told me she had another bag of clothes for me. I always get so excited because they always give us the cutest clothes.

In the bag I found several pairs of jeans, Christmas shirts, regular shirts and some pairs of shorts. In there I found this shirt that I just thought was the cutest. It's a white silky shirt with a Christmas red vest like sweater and a sparkly, silver belt around the waist. I just loved it...so much that I had to take some pictures of her yesterday morning before I sent her to school.

Christmas Program

Tuesday night Kaylyn had a Christmas Program at her school. It was packed! I didnt think it would be that bad but come to find out there were 230 kindergartners! Since there were so many kids you can imagine how big the audience was! Of course we were close to the back so we really didnt get that many good pictures. Here are some that we got though...I need a new camera by the way. I thought I had a pretty good one but for some reason its not taking very good pictures any more.

After looking at these pics they are horrible! Sorry! By the way my hubby did take them lol!

Elf Magic

Last year we bought an Elf for Kaylyn. It was so much fun! Has anyone else seen these? Basically the Elf is very mischievous and gets into all kinds of "trouble." For instance last year Kaylyn went to bed and when she woke up the next morning she found her Elf sitting in her chair eating popcorn and watching one of Kaylyn's favorite movies. Of course the popcorn was all over the place! So the Elf has a little fun while Kaylyn is sleeping...and her Elf is only here during the Christmas Season.

Kaylyn's Elf is named Oakley and he looks like this. I had planned on getting Oakley out again this year but was going to wait another week or so. However, on our way home this afternoon Kaylyn asked if Santa was going to send her Elf back this year. I said that it was very possible. She said that she missed Oakley and knew it was time for Santa to send him and watch over her. She made me promise to "email" Santa on Monday while she was in school to find out when Oakley would arrive. Obviously I am thinking he will need to arrive soon!

So...my dear blogger friends, I need some ideas of how Oakley can show up as well as some things he can get into. Hopefully when Oakley does show up I can post some pictures!

Not Me Monday

Yes, my friends! It's that time again! It's Not Me Monday! So here is what I have NOT been doing the last week! After you my Not Me's dont forget to head over to MckMama's Blog and see what her and everyone else has NOT done lately!

My sweet tooth did NOT kick in and I was NOT looking for something to satisfy it. On the way home from my parents I did NOT stop by Publix and by the ingredients to make a Cherry Pie plus Vanilla Ice Cream. I did NOT make it and eat it around 10pm at night!

We were NOT running low on toilet paper as well as cash so I did NOT tell my hubby to do his "business" at work! A good wife would always have an extra roll some where! And come to find out I did NOT have a roll hidden in my extra bathroom that we never use lol!

I have NOT been tweeting a whole lot more than usual. I love Tweeting but lately had let it fall behind but I did NOT install a new app on my phone so I can Tweet on the go!

Coming Soon

Because I have 3 blogs and I dont know why (lol!) I will soon be doing away with this one. I am going to try and upload all of my posts on here to my main blog here. However soon my main blog will be getting a new URL...so stay tuned for that. So if you follow me here and not here be sure to click here and follow me! Sorry I got carried away with all the here's!

O Fork Where Art Thou?

For those of you who know about my daughter's eating habits things have not gotten any better. For those who dont, I will fill you in a little. Kaylyn doesnt eat anything a normal 5 year old eats. She eats no vegetables, some fruits (bananas, strawberries, & grapes), canned biscuits, and of course a 6 pc McNugget Happy Meal from McDonald's! I am serious, I have listed pretty much everything she will eat. I can NOT get her to try anything else. Anytime I finally get her to try something as soon as it hits her tounge she throws EVERYTHING that she has congested within the last week back up! Not kidding. It drives me nuts because I know that she isnt getting the vitamins or nutrients she needs. And getting a vitamin down her...yeah right!

On to say that when we do fix biscuits for her which is actually pretty often she likes to eat them with a fork. I have noticed within the last week or so that my forks are disappearing. I couldnt understand where they were going. So yesterday Kevin was getting ready to take out the garbage and he saw something shiny. He opened up the trash some and realized it was one of my forks! Apparently when Kaylyn threw her paper plate away she just through the fork away too. Not just one fork...three forks! Yup three! Kevin got to digging and found two more. No wondering I am missing forks. I bet some of them have already been thrown out for good! I am still missing two from my set.

Needless to say we had to have a talk with Kaylyn to let her know that our forks are not to be thrown away. They are to be put in the sink when she is done with her food. Let's see if this works.
