We're So Excited, We Just Can't Hide It

We're So Excited, We Just Can't Hide It

That's right....we are so very excited about the upcoming release of New Moon, the second movie in the Twilight series.  We headed over to my friend Cheri's for a prerelease party. We rewatched Twilight, played Twilight Scene It, had some good food and enjoyed each others company.

Isn't it great to have good friends!! I am not only blessed to have such good friends but I also work with these ladies. When you enjoy those you work with, you also enjoy your work!

Until next time....

Making Us Proud

I sure am proud of this girl!!

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure proud of these boys with this girl too.

They all give us much to be proud of.

On Saturday, Ceceley's basketball team was in a tournament in BG.  Connor's game wasn't until 12:30 so we were able to make it to her game and they were able to watch Connor play football as well. Although Cec's team may not have advanced in the tourny, she sure played a great game against Webster County. She was very aggressive, assertive and displayed good defense. She displayed great leadership skills and scored a 3 pointer.

 WAY TO GO CECELEY!!

Ceceley and Jonathan checking out the stats.

Ceceley and some of her teammates before the game.

We had a great time watching Ceceley play ball. We plan on making all of her games in BG this year. Can't wait to see her lead her team to victory.

Now I couldn't leave out this guy who also makes us very proud as well, now could I? Absolutely not!! He didn't make it to BG for his sister's game because he went hunting with Papa instead and just look at what he found!! WOW!! WAY TO GO CODIE!!

Until next time....

Scrapblog

Ok... so I have posted below one of the pages I made at scrapblog. It is NOT the one I did correctly and finished. It is the practice one. For someone reason I can only get the practice one on here. If you want to the see the neat one, visit the link below.

I may have gotten the correct one to post. Don't really know how I did it.

So Foolishly Addicted to Blogging

I'll be the first to admit that I don't always use my time wisely. Instead of grading the papers I brought home with me from school for the last couple of hours, I spent my time trying to figure out how to make my own personalized header.

I found a great tutorial over at Sneaky Momma Blog Design. She directed me to Scrapblog which turned out to be a pretty neat site I hope to revisit and use to do some digital scrapbooking. Anyway, I couldn't decide what I really wanted my header to look like or what pictures to include. So, I played around with an idea for someone else's blog. It turned out really cute but too BIG. I still haven't figured out how to correct that problem but figured I had spent enough time on the cause for one night. If you have skills or knowledge about such things, please feel free to leave advice in the comments. I would greatly appreciate it. 

I also ran into another problem. I found a really neat picture to use but it may have been copyrighted and didn't work so well. I don't want to pay $$$$ for pictures to use on my blog. Anyone out there know of a good site for FREE pictures? 

As if that isn't example enough to explain that I am So Foolishly Addicted to Blogging, I'll tell you about my afternoon....

Today after church and lunch with friends, the boys and I headed on over to Lowe's. I wanted (and we needed) a leaf blower. So we found one. Got an extension cord and came on home. I spent the afternoon blowing the leaves into a great big pile and collecting them. (Thanks to our neighbor, Chris, for mentioning that we needed to get the kind with the mulcher attachment.) While I worked and the boys played, I was thinking about the post I would write tonight. Well, this one never popped into my mind but here it is all the same. 

Until next time,
