About Me

'The HOOD' is the neighborhood where we live. We got our name in May of 2008 from the pastor of a local church. WHY did he come up with that you ask.....well, a friend in our neighborhood was tragicically hurt and subsequently died in a work accident. Every time the pastor would visit he would ask who people were. Almost everytime I would end my reply with, '.....another neighbor'. After many such conversations he looked at me and asked, "What are you guys, The HOOD?". It stuck. He began to call 'us' that, even during the service for our dear friend Larry. We have all embraced being part of "The Hood". We all cherish and adore each Hood member. And, we all know that we owe our bond to Larry....who we love and miss painfully!

Hood-O-Ween

The annual Hood-O-Ween is hosted by the Cantrells. Bethey always does a famous job decorating the Cantrell home (inside and out) with all the decorations a Hood-O-Ween deserves! We had a grand time as everyone arrived revealing their costume of choice. I MUST admit, the One Night Stan-D stole the show in my opinion. Stanley, you are quite inventive! We enjoyed much laughter, food, and a bit of mischeviousness...maybe! How bout those pictures we took! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this Hood and I love these times we share!

We hauled mom and pop Caenepeel down to Hurley with us to eat some legs. I don't know if they will want to hang with all of us again after the mess we left! We enjoyed their company though. Top shelf folks right there!

The Hood goes to Hurley for LEGS

The Hood goes to Hurley for LEGS
The hood frequently travels over the hills and thru the woods to Hurley to founder on CRABLEGS! Now, check out this stack of empty plates and glasses! Those people tremble when they see us pull up! More interesting, check out those two to-go boxes in the background there. No, they don't allow you to take to-go off the buffet! Those boxes are full of yummy pies! MOST INTERESTING, check out that tat on that bobby! LOL!! I love you Bethey! Because you know..............

ELVIS!!!

One Night STAN-d

Stan came to the Hood-O-Ween as the most hysterical thing I have ever seen. Anyone wanting a one night stand better look him up cuz he can hook you up! We laughed until we cried at the hose hanging out of his drawers, and the beer can on his stand! Way to go STANLEY!!!
