Show and Tell

I finally was able to upload some pics, so here's a few of the festivities in this part of the world...

So, we have to burn everything out here, we don't throw anything away.  But one of the other guys in my office and I have become a little obsessed.  We have a problem.  We get SO pissed when someone else burns our boxes because we stash them for a good solid week until we know we have enough for a big burn.  Then we go out to this burn barrel and build a tower out of the trash and then light it on fire (big shout out to my sister for the lighter) and see how high we can get the flame.  This picture was from back in the beginning, so we were still amateurs, but now our flame's a blazin! Hey, before you go judging me just know there is NOTHING to do here for entertainment, so you gotta get it where you can. 

Holy shit!  So there I was, driving down the road and I see this!!!  I start screaming at the driver, stop the car, stop the f'n car!  Everyone else in the car has no idea what's happening, I JUMP out of the car mid-roll and run to this car & snap this photo!  I mean let's face it, this was a once in a lifetime opportunity out here!  Now meanwhile, everyone in the car now has their weapons pointed at me and they want to take me out b/c I've scared the shit out of them, but hey it was worth it.  GO BUCKS!! 

My aunt sent this to me, how cute is that!?  She took pictures from my whole life and laminated them and added a ribbon to hang them.  This is sitting on my desk in my office, it may stay up the whole time I'm here, haha, we'll see where the wind blows me.  You can also see the mad stash of goodies behind the tree on our shelf that you've all been sending me.  Cannot say THANK YOU enough!  I've been given the nickname of "one-a-day" since I get a package almost everyday, mad love comin from the good ol' U, S, of A. 

We get these cute cards from little kids all the time and I'm obsessed.  This is a little puzzle that came in a little baggie with an adorable letter.  These jackasses (totally kidding) were like "oh that's nice" and set it off to the side.  I pitched a huge fit & INSISTED on putting it together because little Zoe (yes Zoe, that really was her name, so obvi I instantly loved her) worked hard on it for us!  So now it's together and we wrote her a letter back and included this picture.  I'm also happy to report that this puzzle is still together and proudly displayed in our office :) Thanks Zoe, where ever you are!
