A favorite of mine...This is one of Aubbie taken the night of the Brookhaven Christmas parade..Bless her heart, her "Honey" aka Daddy forgot her hat and her mittens, so she ended up with his. She had food all over her face, but the expression on her face is just too much...
Here are a few Christmas pictures. This was the week I was sick with the "I gotta die to get better" sickness where I missed 2 days of work...
Cole with his bike Chris & Bridget gave him

I have no idea what Colby had but musta been good!
Lookie at the mess piling up...Colten was fun this year, he had to help mom pass out gifts and was rather unsure of some of his.
Big hit with the boys was the sleeping bags that lit up...
I think I posted pictures and caught you guys up. My camera batteries have been dead since Christmas.. I did manage to get one or two pictures yesterday of a few things before they went completely dead...
How late is too late to post pictures?!?! NEVER!! Here are a few from Fall 2008


Natalee and Will @ Monterey Homecoming in Oct or Nov. (I lived with the Duncan family the whole time I was working in Jena) I have watched Nat & Riley grow up...When I first met them, they were 3 now we are rockin on 12... My how time flies!






Of course Our Cheyenne in the leaves...She reminds me so much of myself it is scary at times...She's growing into a beautiful young lady...who still shows her Tom Boy side 24-7




The day is not complete with out the boys... Daddy included! Colten as you can tell is managing to hold is own with the other two. In fact, Colby gets beat up by him on a normal basis. What's the old say payback is hell?!?! Well Colby is getting it from time to time now.

Bull Bash 2009!

Yes Lord help it is that time again! Every November the fire chief (aka Roger Dale) hands us these envelopes with a $ amount on the front...this is what each person needs to collect in ads for us to have the stock contractor paid up front. Ok so as they do that I get handed these business cards that have scribbles thru and some that for some apparent reason have half the card missing?!?!? and I get to design the frazzlin ad program. I may fuss about it, but the ad program is something I do enjoy doing and take much pride in, but here is the thing...this year, I am into my final week of designing and copying ads and I have a CPR class tonight (and actually fireschool I'll miss for CPR class), Fire school tomorrow, I'll do ads Wednesday night, Fire school again on Thursday. My birthday is Friday so I'll have to go to Brookhaven to have my mug shot taken for my liscense which happen to expire that day, Saturday is an ambulance driving class (8 hours mind you), Sunday will be church day and to finish ads up since one week from today we staple the programs together! GEEZE!!! So this will be the week I meet myself on the Highway coming and going...if you see my little green kia just get outta my way...I'm a woman on a mission, I may be texting, sending email or just half zonked out and I can barley keep it all straight!!

On a lighter note, I've only got like 6 more pages to lay out and design...that is unless my guys pull a surprise and turn in more ads while we are at this fire school!!

Bull Bash is March 6 & 7th in liberty...starts at 8pm...gates open at 6pm. Come enjoy and show your support!

It's that time of the year again.

For some apparent reason, this little guy attempts to put my friends up to trying to have me a date for Valentine's and I don't like it.

Just this past Sunday at church, that one single guy and I were talking as friends do, and the "cupit" of the day bounces up and says "So, you two want a Valentine's Banquet ticket right?" My response is "HUH?!?" with a look of ARE YOU CRAZY on my face. My "HUH" give him the split second opportunity to RUN and quickly I might add. I have told "Cupit" this guy has to be handled with kid gloves since it's apparent his last two relationships have been not so kind at all to him. I pray she didn't freak him out more than I realize.

I know everyone wants to help in finding me the "right man". And I do have faith that the Lord will send him my way. If my "Cupits" aka Friends don't scare him off first. Is this single guy the one for me and he's just scared? I don't know...all I do know is that I've enjoyed talking to him lately. Old friends reunited. We grew up semi close to one another and when he married for the first time, we all grew apart.

**Latest update** @ chruch this past Sunday, the single man stayed far far away from me and the "Cupits". My "Cupits" have somehow found out the single man got a ticket to our church Valentine Banquet, and now I have a ticket also that they bought me. Go figure! But since it is a fund raiser for the youth, I'll go along and enjoy myself. Besides the meal should be YUMMY!

I'll keep everyone posted on how much damage my "Cupits" might cause
I am my own worst enemy!
I'm sitting here wondering what the scales will show tomorrow...I know with the Super Bowl, birthday parties, and lunch at Logan's and supper at Broma's this week, I haven't done as good as I should have. The plus is that I have worked out 3 days this week so far. I am more concious about what I have eatten the last week. It'll take time...I'll know tomorrow just how bad or how bad I thought I did.
