oopsys...

been busy... and haven't been postin'...

mr. rooster has a new position at work that is keeping him super super busy... and REALLY tired when he gets home at night...

 spring is FINALLY here!!! thank goodness... of course i shouldn't say it too loud it will probably snow AGAIN tomorrow...


i am SO looking forward to SUMMER... here are a few of the reason why...

beaver creek rodeo... every thursday night!! complete with mutton bustin' and bull ridin'...

yes.. that is my mr. rooster... his brother... and his amigo from college WINNING the burro race the week of our wedding!!

hilarious!

hot summer nights...

it is a free concert in vail village at the ford ampitheather... this guy drives me there... and we sit in the grass and have a picnic... i love it!

those are just a few things that i am looking forward to...

obsession(s)....

so i thought i would let y'all (all 2 of you) know a few (more) things i am obsessed with at the moment...

1. whoppers robin's eggs... minis to be specific... not the large ones... only the minis.

2. camelbak 25 oz purple water bottle... i can't go anywhere with out it... crazy i know... it helps me keep hydrated... which is VERY important...

3. this guy... not enough words to descirbe why i am obsessed with him... he is wonderful... that is it...

more to come...

sookie!

i am completely addicted... i have a serious problem... i cannot stop reading the sookie stackhouse novels by charlaine harris....

luckily for me...

there are 8... yes.  8.  and i am on the fifth one...

these are the novels that the hbo series TRUE BLOOD is based on...

mr. rooster and i don't have cable... it is an idea we had right before we got married to not have cable for the first year of marriage... i has been neat.

however we have NETFLIX and so we do still watch TV...that is how this problem started... we added season 1 of true blood to our queue..

.now i am waiting with bated breath for season 2 of True Blood to come to DVD... it has been on hbo for almost a year and i haven't seen it... meanwhile season 3 is set to start june 13, 2010....

the show is not for everyone... but i dig it.

health care... economy... yuck!

i think i will concentrate on more important things... like this

i thought i would be frugal and purchase the dvd off of the internet... little did i know that i was going to have to wait an extra 4 days... and i only saved $3.50... TOTALLY not worth it!

headed south...

mr. rooster and i are headed south this afternoon... our first stop will be baton rouge... where we first met... home of this place...

death valley.

we will make a few stops and be sure to enjoy some of these...

and these...

all the while passin' a good time with old friends and great family...

then we are headed here...

home of the...

where we are sure to have some of these...

much love.

WIN!

WHO DAT! GEAUX SAINTS!

i love him.

one month ago...

we went out into the woods to find our christmas tree...

we found it...

together... in the snow...

harper wore her new scarf i knit her... i cut down the tree...

and mr. rooster carried it out of the woods for us...

and then set it up in our living room...

pitiful photograph... but TA-DA

now it is gone.

turkey gobble...

the (2nd) 5th annual turkey gobble happened over thanksgiving in detroit... again it was "the lantzy girls" vs. "the lantzy boys"

the lantzy boys team was there to defend our turkey gobble title...

the lantzy girls made our team uniforms...

here i am getting my game face on...

here is my team.

here is the opposing team....grrrr...

here is the whole posse.

so i thought we should do a team booty bump... but the boys didn't agree...

i told 'em who was boss and we re-did the booty bump...

at the starting line...

gobbling the half of a sour cream donut... not as easy as you think...

here is mr. rooster gobbling to the next station...

the race came down to the last two contestants... here they are eating the piece of toast and hot (cold) chocolate...

and gobbling the jello...

we WON! the face of victory!

lantzy girl's, see you in two years for the (3rd) 6th annual turkey gobble!  you ladies rock!
