Snail and The Blind Side

Last Friday my Mema and Big, my mom's parents, came to spend the day with me. With me just having my appendix taken out that Wednesday, I couldn't do much for myself, so my family was always here to take care of me. At lunch time Allyson Lake and Brad came over, so Mema and Big went out for lunch. They went to eat at Parker's BBQ and then took a quick stop to Lowes. When they came back, Mema had gotten me a snail for only $1.00. I put him in my front flower bed.

Here is what he looked like before.

With him being black, he was very hard to see, so I spray painted him yellow!!

Here he is now!
Now it's a lot easier to see him...he stands out!

Tonight Brad and I watched...

Oh my goodness....such a good movie.

I know we are a couple of months behind schedule, but neither one of us are much of movie watchers. I have a hard time sitting down for a couple of hours to watch a movie, but this one definitely kept my attention. After the movie was over, I asked Brad if he liked it...he said it was alright. I was like oh gosh, I thought it was sooo good. Come to find out, he liked the movie, but said it was sad that there are still other children out there who are having to deal with such a hard home life. I think those of us who are very fortunate to have a great home life, take so much for granted. This is a great movie to make you appreciate what you do have, because there are so many people out there who are less fortunate than we are!!
