close encounters...

my mom's best friend (since kindergarten!) is someone i've known all my life, literally. in fact, her son & my sister got 'married' when they were little (yes, that's a barbie doll bed skirt on my sisters head), how stinkin' cute are they (too bad they grew up!)...

drew & farrell circa 1982

so when her son posted a link to the local news on his facebook account i couldn't resist. looks like she had a close encounter with an alligator yesterday...
