Stephenson Family Ties The Barn Burnt Down
And Now I See The Moon


is for YIKES!(the things that scare or startle me)












*I am Legend- its been a LONG time since I've seen such a scary movie!!!




*How fast time flies.

*I need to baby proof my house again- Lachlan in on the move!!

*The thought of being pushed into my pool, full of ice cold water, sends dread to my soul.


*Poor Michael Jackson- who I adored so much...what went wrong?












*Being awaken from a deep sleep with a gentle touch. (ask the kids; I fly to the roof)

*Jumping from an airplane. Clark did it, I could have, its not for me.

*Dentists



*Hilary Clinton







*Rattlesnakes and cockroaches- even Disney couldnt take the 'edge' off the creepiness of a cockroach. Even if they can clean up a nasty, dirty tub. (Enchanted)

*Why oh why did it take me until I was 40+ to learn to lower my chin when I have my picture taken??!!

*Im getting old. And let me share with you how I now know this to be true. Bob and I went out the other night to do a little Christmas shopping. When we were done, we wanted to grab a bite to eat. Bob pulled into the Village Inn parking lot. I said nothing because I was just grateful that he made the decision on where to go this time. We had a surprisingly tasty meal. We lingered and visited and took our time. When we got back into the car, Bob made the comment about how nice it was to eat in a quiet resturant where one could 'spread out' and not be disturbed, and where we could hear each other talk. Then he looked at me with a strange face and said, "oh my gosh, we're sounding like our parents!" How did this happen?? YIKES!!

You find the best pictures! That one of Hilary is out-of-control scary. And I agree, what happened to Michael Jackson. It's so sad.

Oh yeah - my yikes wasn't jumping out of an airplane but watching the video of Chris jumping in Hawaii. The photographer was amazing and caught him as he went out the door and showed the angle of descent - everything - about him jumping from that plane. My heart STOPPED I'm sure! It was freaky! YIKES!!!
