I threw my coat on the floor and Frank decided it would make a good pillow.

These bugs have been EVERYwhere since late fall.

They may LOOK like lady bugs but they are not.

On average... I kill 2 a day.

-----------------------------------------------------

From wikipedia.....

The native Lady Bug has a dark reddish color and sometimes may not have spots, as opposed to the Asian Lady Beetle, which is orange in color, and always has spots.
THE COLOR! NATIVE LADY RED, ASIAN LADY BEETLE ORANGE.
Both are different from the Japanese Beetle, which is a metallic green-brown, and slightly larger than either Lady. It is considered a pest, and devours many plants. It can strip the leaves off a plant (trees, crops, and ornamentals such as roses, etc.) resulting in considerable damage to the plant, even killing them. You can purchase Japanese Beetle Traps which are baited with pheromones and are very effective in drawing them. In infested areas, it is not unusual for each trap to catch a quart of the insects a day in the height of the season.

And these are the 2 lonely house plants that I am trying to protect. :-)

Frank also tried to play with Trigger...

Fortunately for Frank, Trigger did not want to play.

We went to Bob (above) and Marsha's for pre-SuperBowl festivities.

Frank was just excited about all the food.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

As you can see.... Frank is REALLY good about having to go potty in the snow. :-)
I am just constantly amazed by and proud of him.

We went to visit Susan today... it was a SUPER DUPER visit yet for some reason, as soon as the camera came out we met with some opposition.

Charles, Corwin and Alice....

We were playing Guitar Hero 3 (I think... don't quote me on that).

So.... how do you work this thing?

Susan, me, Alan, Charles, Lynn and Corwin...

I think I am starting to get the hang of it.

Corwin and Charles...

Alice...

Alan and I (jammin' out)...

Trust me.... it is a LOT harder than it looks. :-)

Alan and Mike...

They did AWESOME!!!

Aunt Evelyn and Polly...

Polly and Frank got along SOOOO well... I was impressed beyond words.

Here is where I relinqueshed control of the camera over to photographer Alice...

Taking pictures of "butts" made Alice giggle uncontrolably... don't worry... I won't show them all. tee hee hee

Alan.

Their Christmas tree...

Use of the camera required she allow us to take a picture of her...

She complied. :-)

A picture of a picture of Princess Peach (her favorite).

Fireplace...

Lynn...

Mike...

Frank's butt. LOL!

Mike and I saw this picture and said "What the heck is he eating?"

It's hard to say with our piggly puggly.

Pictures of their guinea pigs...

Alice got a great picture of Frank...

he almost looks thin. ;-)

ME! :-)

Susan...

Charles is quite the Lego extraordinaire...

We were VERY impressed.

A family Foosball game...

As you can imagine.... the boys won!!!!

Corwin and Charles...

Alice was VERY excited after taking this picture because "CHARLES WAS SMILING".

I believe Alice is destined to be a photographer.
