The Life of the Boots

I don't have any new pictures but I am going to tell a story about the boots in this picture.

The Life of the Boots

Well, I got these boots. I put 'em on. They fit just perfectly. They still would but they're a little broken right now because the soles have sort of come off, half-way. I had 'em a long time and they still fit me. I got 'em when I was 5 so those are some pretty good boots. I went to my friend, Jasper's house, and then when I came home, I couldn't make the step without getting cow manure on everything so that is why you shouldn't always go in the cow pen. And to this day, I can still always see 'em. That's the life of my boots.

Easter

Earlier today, Grampits hid 29 Easter eggs in the house for me to find. Then, this afternoon, I hid 43 eggs in the yard for Mom and I to find after she got off work. Here are some pictures of some of the eggs I hid.

Round Robin - Shoes

This challenge, this time, for the Round Robin Photo Challenge, is shoes. I only wear shoes when Mom makes me or when I get too tall for my pants. These boots are my favorites. I really like them. I've had them for a long time. The soles have been reglued once and need to go in to the bootmaker again.

And I wear 'em when I just want to.

Fun Monday - Hell's Bells

Grandma signed me up for Fun Monday. My mom is hosting. This is what Mom wants:

Music plays a vital role in most of our lives. It is everywhere. I want to hear the ONE song that is you. The song that whenever it is heard, you smile. I am not looking for the soundtrack of your life, just that one song. Your friends hear it and think of you. You can post the video, the lyrics, the wav file. However you want to post it is great.

This is Carlo's grandma typing. I asked Carlo what song he thought he was and he said "anything by Rob Zombie or else "Hell's Bells" by AC/DC. Yeah. I asked him why and he said becuase that's what his Dad likes. So in honor of Carlo's dad, I present:

Artist/Band: Atkins Rodney

Lyrics for Song: Watching You

Lyrics for Album: If You're Going Through Hell

Drivin’ through town just my boy and me

With a “Happy Meal” in his booster seat

Knowin’ that he couldn’t have the toy ‘til his nuggets were gone.

A green traffic light turned straight to red

I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breath.

His fries went a flyin’, and his orange drink covered his lap

Well, then my four year old said a four letter word

It started with “S” and I was concerned

So I said, “Son, now where’d you learn to talk like that?”

Chorus:

He said, I’ve been watching you, dad ain’t that cool?

I’m your buckaroo, I wanna be like you.

And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.

We got cowboy boots and camo pants

Yeah, we’re just alike, hey, ain’t we dad

I want to do everything you do.

So I’ve been watching you.

We got back home and I went to the barn

I bowed my head and I prayed real hard

Said, “Lord, please help me help my stupid self.”

Just this side of bedtime later that night

Turnin’ on my son’s Scooby-doo nightlight.

He crawled out of bed and he got down on his knees.

He closed his little eyes, folded his little hands

Spoke to God like he was talkin’ to a friend.

And I said, “Son, now where’d you learn to pray like that?”

Chorus:

He said, I’ve been watching you, dad ain’t that cool?

I’m your buckaroo; I want to be like you.

And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.

We like fixin’ things and holding moma’s hand

Yeah, we’re just alike, hey, ain’t we dad.

I want to do everything you do; so I’ve been watching you.

With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug.

Said, “My little bear is growin’ up.”A

nd he said, “But when I’m big I’ll still know what to do.”

Chorus:

'cause I’ve been watching you, dad ain’t that cool?

I’m your buckaroo; I want to be like you.

And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.

By then I’ll be strong as superman

We’ll be just alike, hey, won’t we dad

When I can do everything you do.

‘cause I’ve been watchin’ you.

hey

yea

huh huh

Round Robin - Vegetables

This is my first time to be part of this. The first picture is from a library book called "Fast Food". It is what I wanted to do. Their dump truck is fruit. Mine is all vegetables.

Bad landing!

What do all these things have in common?

Holstein

Angus

Hereford

They will all become DINNER!

The Birds that Stayed

I did not take this next picture. Grandma did right after Mom attacked me with a spray bottle of water!

Passing Police Cars

This is what it looks like from the back seat of Grandma's car when she passes a police car.

Note from Grandma: I really should wash my car windows!
