are you ready boots?

i had a birthday over the holidays.  yes, it was before christmas and im just getting to it now...
baby pooch got me a t-shirt from the gorillaz concert, which i was very sad to miss



and some new pooch slippers.... its chilly where i live!!




my son, and his sweetie pooch jilly bean, took me target shooting.

he taught us gun safety and how to be safe on the range.  he was thorough and watched us carefully.

remember kids, this was target shooting.....   just for FUN







we used AR-15 semi-automatic type rifle in 5.56 x 45mm





and a 1911 handgun in .45 ACP cartridge





and a few pics of us shooting.  it was SO cold that day.  it was painful to be without gloves just for those few moments to shoot









thats my excuse for not hitting my target even once.  son says the zombies would have got me for sure

got these shoes in charlottetown last week .... on sale




 and..... ahhh, the boots.  this was my gift from pooch lucy and her bf  J

the main reason for all that walking around toronto.  they are THE most awesome boots




speaking of boots...... listen to this one.  check out the link below 
omg its the best !



all for now

    I love the Gorillaz mostly because of Mick Jones and Paul Simonen ex Clash, you look a real badass with that rifle if only you could've hit the target. Looked like fun.

    What a great way to celebrate! It really looks soo cold there, but the warmth that one feels when one is surrounded by so much love from the family takes it over, isnt it?
    I am sure you had a great time!
    Belated birthday wishes, Laura:-)

    Shooting?? so cool Pooch!! I would love to do that someday. Unfortunately we don't have any shooting range here so we only shoot with toy guns LOL!

    Those are pretty much the perfect winter boot, ideal for a cold day's shooting. You'll have to go again with hot potatoes in your pocket. Belated happies to you!

    happy belated birthday!..looks like you had all sorts of fun....the shooting looks a bit scary..but guns freak me out...good for you to give it a go...I remember singing that song when it came out. I think it made Nancy Sinatra a gazillion...now I'll be singing it all day.....

    My brother competitively shoots and has an enormous collection of guns.
    As much as I detest and fear them, he took me shooting at his gun club about 7 years ago and I loved it. My kids get angry when I say that, but it was fun! If I lived nearer I can see me going with him though never owning one I don't think.

    happy Belated B-day!
