Tornado Warning

Pman was keeping a close eye on the tornados this afternoon.  He enjoyed the sirens as they went off.  No damage done, just wind and rain. 

Parker's new Maple Tree

Grandma and Grandpa Schoonover planted a tree in their yard for Parker.  It's an October Glory Maple....some cultivar of a Red or Sugar Maple I'm sure.   We had some warm weather today so we got a few pics.

Christmas Morning

Grandpa, Parker, and Mickey

Grandpa, Parker, and Mickey were having a good ole time today.  Parker is feeling much better.  Once we got him off the pain meds. he started acting like himself again.  Must take after his old man when it comes to pain....we just laugh at it.  

Christmas P-man

Parker is getting ready for the the big day, only 4 days left.

Randy, Anita, and Parker

Randy and Anita came to visit Parker back in mid July. I think he was snoozing most of the time, so we'll have to go visit them again soon.

We watched mommy make me some bananas tonight.  We also learned that if you peel a banana upside down that we don't get the stringy mess.....the monkeys taught us that.

Pman's ready for Christmas morning.  He's gonna be crawling soon, he rolled 10 feet across the floor this evening.

2008 Deer Season

Well my deer season is officially over. The upper one was a Smokepole kill, he was a 9pt and scored 144 7/8. The bottom picture was a shotgun kill, a 14pt that scored 170 6/8. My best season so far.

Pman's Early Christmas

Parker is already getting into his Christmas presents.  He got a new book from Jenny's Aunt Clara and Uncle Robert.

Parker's First Deer

Here's Daddy and Parker with their first buck together. Nice 14pter killed out of Grandpa's treestand. He was a 14pt that scored 170 6/8

Parker's First Halloween

Happy Halloween from P-man.  His first costume was an Auburn Tigger!  Actually it was just Tigger, but looked close enough to Aubie for me.  

Grandma and Grandpa Schoonover

Grandma and Grandpa Schoonover came down tonight to see Parker, we all went out to eat at Pioneer's Cabin and Grandpa treated us (event hough he still claims he's broke).  By the way....thanks for dinner!

Pman Feeding

Parker's anticipating feeding time.  He's not liking being spoon fed at all, he's still a fan of the bottle. 

Turkey

Bow kill on 10/25/08.  Spurs were 7/8" and beard was 7.5".  40yds

Storm Dog

Storm Dog watching the rain....it's pouring and chilly.

Deer in a barn?

Here's a couple small bucks that I caught on camera that were hanging out in a barn during the summer.  I reckon it had a cool breeze and no flies.

Tree ID Class

Here's a group a tree ID students at Pomona Natural Bridge.  It's a pretty cool sandstone bridge in southern Illinois.  The students are loving leaf fall, right now that's the only way they can identify anything. They're going to have a big surprise in a couple weeks!

Time to eat

I'm hungry.......and tired.

Parker's Bath

Bath night for P-man.  He's getting dried off in his favorite Mickey towel that he got from Granny on her trip to Disney.  P-man's ready for bed, gotta get a bottle.

Parker 3 months old

Here's P-man in his favorite duds...bluejeans and camo.  He's 4.5 months old now and rolling over like a wild man.  He sleeps from 10pm to 7am with no problems through the night, hope his routine doesn't change any time soon.
