Harmon Hideaways






Little Miss A is obsessed with hiding. She constantly wants to make a fort, tent, cave in our bed, on our bed, in her bed, under the bed, in a cabinet, behind the shower curtain and then she demands that the entire house come and find her. (Daddy makes the best tents and she gets furious at my sub-par efforts) When you do find her... she may be a "mean tiger, bear or lion" or a "nice kitty or puppy" and then after growling or mewing at you... she will laugh hysterically and expect you to hide with her even though most of the spaces are way too small for any sort of person over 30lbs. When you express to her that you cannot fit there... she is beyond upset as you have spoiled all the fun.

When she first got her tent from Nana & Papa, she would expect Chris and I and Bailey to spend at least 1 hour an evening together in the tent ~ it was quite cozy. Talk to any family member and they will tell you that she has trapped them in her tent for extended periods of time. She will bring you fake food and drinks and make you give her babies bottles but she will demand you never leave the tent even as she is free to run around the house. Crazy kid!

Fair & Farm Animal Fun!

Mom & I took Little Miss A to the Comal County Fair in New Braunfels on Saturday. It was FABULOUS! It was sooo clean and family friendly! Here she is riding Cody, the oldest pony in existence - way to go Carnies - watch out for the Austin animal rights lovers
Love, love, lovin the goat over any other special barnyard friend
The baby chick is trying to fly out of my hand ~ can't say I can blame it!
Riding the Landa ParkTrain
This was the only ride that she would ride ~ probably because the Carnie was the least aggressive. She did not feel the love of the loud rides screaming 80's hair band tunes such as - "Welcome to the Jungle & Up All Night, Sleep All Day" that I used to live for at the Lubbock Joyland ( granted I was in junior high and they are still playing them in 2008) . I recommend Kiddie Acres any day for rides her age. But for farm animals and greasy food... can't beat the fair! Though we will always have a special love for the South Plains Fair... thank you Comal County for givin us a sense of home!

Little Miss A LOVES her Uncles







Little Miss A is sooo in love with her uncles. Any time she gets a phone (real or fake) you can ask her... Who are you calling? And she will always say Tyler or Ryan. Now rarely when they really call will she actually talk to them but they are always the 1st people in her mind. She flirts shamelessly with both of them as she knows she is the queen of their world. If you haven't ever seen grown men melt - watch these "boys" with their niece. She has them sooo wrapped. She is sooo lucky to have both of them years before they have their own kids and therefore she can be #1. She has stolen their hearts and she couldn't love them more as they are human jungle gyms who provide endless fun when they are around! Thanks for never being too tired or busy to PLAY!

GG's visit to our new house






GG (Chris' grandmother & Mema to most) came for a visit last weekend to see our new house and complete the decorations that Tillie had started but everyone has to have GG's final approval. Little Miss A read her books and sang her songs and performed as she loves to do. I really thought mom wasn't going to let her leave! She misses her very very much as we all do! Come see us again soon GG!

Fall 2008 ~ 1st Blog

I decided that sending 150 pictures out of little Miss Sassy out once a month wasn't enough. I must entertain/annoy you with endless stories of her sparkling personality!

There is no possible way that I will be a funny as Erin or dry funny as Abby but I will give it a huge E for effort, at least for a while!

Welcome to the Harmon Hill Country Blog!
