'Merica: The Cookie.

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July.  Lots of hot dogs and blowing stuff up.  

New mascot.  nothing like a fake owl with 360 rotating head action.

I'm going to need that owl to protect my veggie garden.   My green beans are starting to grow quite nicely.

Grow little sprouts!

The watermelon is doing alright as well.  Just waiting on the carrots, onions, and brussels sprouts now.  With the monsoon hitting us, that should help unless they are washed away...

FINAL WEEK!
Megan and I went to check out the art at RoCo over the weekend.  Lots of great pieces by a bazillion artists from all over the world.  You should check it out because it's a lot of fun.  Can't make it in person, all the art is available to view online.  My pieces are:

#367 (SOLD)
#368
#369

Sleepy... So Very Sleepy...

Photobucket
Feeling like this guy lately.  I think I've been battling a cold that everyone's been getting, which is better than the flu.  Anyway, it seems our house is becoming the house of weird cookie jars.  And yet, we never have cookies...

Photobucket
Bad ass motorcycle gang member made of shells!

Photobucket
SANTASAURUS REX!  Saw this guy on our walk through East Rochester last week. 

Photobucket
It's amazing walking through work these days because doors and hallways just magically appear out of nowhere. This one leads to the new clinic

Photobucket
My coworkers daughter makes all sorts of creative desserts.  Here's a teddy graham fishing swedish fish.  

Photobucket

"I KNOW YOU!  HELP!  I DON'T BELONG IN THIS OFFICE!"  Congrats to Karen on her new job even if Chance seems really confused on top of your desk.

That's it.  Nothing much happening lately and I'll probably rest a lot on the long weekend.  Some football tomorrow.

Good Ship Lollypop (NOW WITH A MISSILE LAUNCHER!)

Photobucket
Cats love christmas too!  


Photobucket
We had a big fundraiser last week and Lollypop Farm grossed $37,000!  YEAH!  Sounds like a lot until I found out that the care of the animals from one of our cruelty cases has run up a tab of about $86,000.  It amazes me the things we can do though!


Photobucket
This inkind donation from Perkins.  It is wonderful chauffeuring a platter of browies, cookies, brownies and other goodies that take up my entire backseat in the morning.  


Photobucket
So...  It begins...


Photobucket
Rachel and Erin boxing each other on the Kinect


Photobucket
The best part of watching these two box is they keep getting closer to the TV as if they are going to start boxing the characters on the screen.


Photobucket
Lollypop Farm Holiday Party at the Green Lantern (restaurant; not the superhero) in the village of Fairport.  A good time was had by all and, as this pic shows, lots of hats that move and play music.


Photobucket
Look at what I got at the White Elephant Gift Exchange!  It's a missile launcher for my desk.  It has a full range of motion, has desktop controls for my computer, and another way for me to threaten my volunteers to do more data entry just in time for the giving season!

2-for-1 Holiday Special

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  I think Megan and I broke a new land speed record between Rochester, NY and Muskegon, MI with a drive time under 8 hours.  I'm glad we got to see a lot of people back home and sorry that we didn't get to see everyone.  


Photobucket
DON'T FEED HER AFTER MIDNIGHT!


Photobucket
And, in honor of the new Muppet movie, I say, "meer meer meer meer!"


Photobucket
Seems that x-mas and t-day combined forces this year.  And yes Virginia, that is a Superman snuggie.  It looks even better when I become "Lazy Superman" watching football on the couch.


Photobucket
This is Brother Thou Shalt Not Get Fat.  Of course, it only contains grenola...


Photobucket
The sweetest breed of dog; Cupcake Yorkie.

Snowpocalypse or Snow What?

I hope everyone is having a good snow day today.  It was predicted that we were going to get 14+ inches of snow and that the world was going to end.  Well, we might have two inches out there.  Good thing we don't live in Chicago anymore.  There's a chance of freezing rain later, so that may justify all the hype about the weather for the past week...  Anyway...


Photobucket
Jason Pominville Bobblehead Night for the Rochester Amerks (http://www.amerks.com) last Friday!  YES!!!


Photobucket 
Not only were their bobbleheads, but it was Hall of Fame Night too.  Don Stevens and Doug Houda were inducted into the Amerks Hall of Fame.  For more info on that, go to: http://www.democratandchronicle.com/article/20110129/SPORTS02/101290322/Houda-Stevens-join-Rochester-Amerks-Hall-of-Fame

Stevens and Houda in front of all the fans

Amerks pulled out a 2-1 victory over the Manitoba Moose

Intermission Pee-Wee Hockey!  Last time, the kids could barely stand up.  This time, these kids were almost in the minor leagues.


Photobucket
I believe Kraus is shooting.  I do not know this Kraus...


Photobucket
Megan's giant cookie!


Photobucket
I got a frisbee sponsored by Airport Transmission! 


Photobucket
Having flashbacks to my sister skating as a California Raisin during the Muskegon Fury game.  I wonder if that video is on YouTube?


Photobucket
These are the Mirror Images


Photobucket
These guys apparently dance at every game to Cotton Eye Joe by the Rednex.  Hmmmm....  Next game is February 11th against the Binghamton Senators (looks like Jerry and I need to place a bet).  It's also Valentine's Night with a special mystery puck.  Not only that, but there will be an Amerk wall decal givaway!  It will be the best Valentine's Day ever for my lady!!!


Photobucket 
Megan and I went to the Monroe County Executive's Ball at the Riverside Convention Center. Thanks Rich!


Photobucket
Megan sticking to the priorities


Photobucket
mmmm...  desserts...


Photobucket
Pretty nice convention center.  But, it's like the convention center in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  It's on the river, but doesn't have windows to look at this wonderful natural feature.  In GR, it's used as a fire escape.  Maybe I was just on the wrong side of the building...


Photobucket


Photobucket
"Hell Yeah Maggie!"  The lady of the hour, Maggie Brook.  She's the County Executive of Monroe County, New York and out on the dance floor.  I didn't realize she was in one of my photos until I uploaded it and she was in the corner.  Hence, the reason it is so grainy and looks like it's from a bad spy movie.  So, I can check her off my list of local politicians I've seen along with former Mayor Bob Duffy.  


Photobucket
The Ruby Shoes.  What is that logo, you ask?  I don't know either.  It could be a rose...  Anyone else have a guess?


 Photobucket
The party is over.  Go home!


Photobucket
Olivia at Lollypop Farm, telling me I'm working too hard on the Raiser's Edge database.  She already has a wonderful home and comes to work almost every day.  I like that she rolls over for snacks.


Photobucket
Here's "Minnie."  Definitely not "Mini" since she use to weigh 24 lbs.  Now why you mostly see is sagging skin.  A very nice lazy cat though and we're just waiting to see if she has a nice home to go back to.  


Photobucket
Lizzie would not look at me except sideways.  I think she's mad because I didn't have food or something.  


That's about it.  Not too much going on this upcoming week.  Another interview, volunteer training at Lollypop while my lady goes skiing, the gala at Wilson Commencement Park, and probably a few other things as well...
