Sunday afternoon movie .......

Sunday afternoon us girls went to see Bride Wars. It was a great "Chick Flick" and we enjoyed it alot. It seems that we have made Sunday the offical "Chick Flick movie day". After church we head out to the movies and then out to eat and we always seem to end up eating at Cracker Barrel. I always enjoying eating here its relaxing, the food is good and it has that homey feel to it. The day was rather cold so the big fire place was going inside and good old country music was playing in the background. Thanks for going with me again Mom, Aunt Sandra, Kari and Karson.

Wii be playin'

Wii be playin'..................

We have been playing the Wii for several days straight now and I have to admit that my son Conner is a bowling fool. So far he is reigning champion at our house but I'm not sure how long he will hold his title. DH is determined to take his title away at all costs. In fact I believe as of yesterday DH's shoulder was giving him some grief. I believe that it had something to do with the hundreds of games of bowling he played the night before with no prevail. Conner is still the CHAMPION!!!

Happy New Year everyone!!

Another year has come and gone and I'm still sitting here scratching my head wondering where on earth the time has gone. A full year has gone and still so many things left undone. I'm hoping that this year will be different and I will become a little more organized, OK a lot more organized and knock a few "to do's and I want to's" off my list. I would list them for you all but the list would be never ending. One thing that I want to do is master this blog business. I read all the wonderful blogs and dream of mine looking as nice and interesting but somehow I get on here and get very discouraged. I also would like to start participating in some of the fun blogger swaps, see I'm not even sure if that's the correct term!! Anyway, I guess you can tell that one of my to do's is to get more involved in the blog world because there are so very many talented and nice people out there. Wish me luck and again Happy New Year!!

Here's my first attempt:

Croptober Fest!! YEA

As you can tell by the sign above this girl has somewhat of a "scrapbooking" addiction. October is going to be a fun filled month for me. First and most importantly the 23rd is my BIRTHDAY!! Secondly its the month for scrapbooking! What a great combination,right? lol
I've been invited to a crop almost every weekend in October the 11th,18th and 25th so far. Though I'm crazy excited I do worry about breaking the news to the DH for some reason he doesn't share my love for scrapbooking. Well I decided that I would remind him first that October is my birthday and that I have the perfect present in mind for myself that doesn't require any shopping !! Well he was thrilled about not having to go out and fight the mall but was not so thrilled when I told him that it would require me being gone every Saturday for nearly the entire month of October. Needless to say negotiations are still in the works!! Wish me luck girls!!

eblogger trouble !!

Here I am still trying to figure this eblogger stuff out !! ugh Not sure why I can't get it but give me some time and hopefully I'll get it up and going. I am so inspired by all the beautiful blogs that I see I just hope that I can get this thing working!! I am so excited about joining them in their adventures!! Wish me luck girls and off I go once again...

These are pictures from our zoo trip back in February.

Can you believe that my 15 year old daughter asked to go there for her birthday?

See your never to old for the zoo and Conner enjoyed it too!!

Although I didn't get as many pictures of her as I'd like I did manage to get a few. Taking pictures of her is like trying to get a shot at a animal in the wild!! TEENAGERS .........
