Our Pet Alligator!!

Today our day started off going to Auburn to watch the middle school football team play in a jamboree and watch Lacey cheer. We were all decked out in orange and blue but I made sure the boys wore their Alabama hats to be sure no one thought we were Auburn Fans!! It was a really nice day. They tied the 1st game and lost the 2nd game. But Lacey did a fantastic job cheering!! On our way home we stopped by the farm since we didn't get up there at all hardly this summer. Papa and Uncle John were getting ready for dove season. We also visited the "pet" alligator. He showed up a couple of months ago in the pond behind the cabin. Papa and Uncle John feed him. John was actually calling him like he would call a dog!! We started off on the back deck and ended up very close down on the bank of the pond. Papa feed the gator some Kelly's hot dogs and then a small watermelon. It was quite an adventure! Below you will find some picture from our visit!!

OMG Elly!! Gators are so scary and pets ones are no better! They're all over the place at Lake Eufaula where my parents live. It's way worse now than when I was in high school. Must be a gator epidemic! I put some pics of some on my blog recently as well. We've told our brazen little Molly that gators have a particular preference for cute little girls and not to get close to the edge. You should pass that advice onto that cute little one of yours!
