Winterguard Competition

Emily had her Regional Championship competition in Orlando this past weekend. They did rather well, placing 5th place in their division. They should all be proud of themselves!

They are headed off to Dayton, OH today for World Championships! Wish them luck! I will miss you Emily!

Madelyn's birthday party.

One of my best friends, Jennifer, had her little girl's 3rd birthday party on Saturday, March 21st. I volunteered to make the birthday cake! LOL! It turned out ok. At least the birthday girl and her mom loved it!

Emily's sweet 16!

It's been quite a long time since I wrote. So much has happened. I wanted to post a picture of Emily's sweet 16. She had a nice party on Saturday, March 14th. We were going to have just a dance but Curt and I gave in and heated the pool and hot tub for her! Curt says you only turn 16 once! LOL! Anyway, she had a few friends over, we did a cook out and had cupcakes for the birthday girl. The pool never got really warm but they hopped in and out of the hot tub and back to the pool. I can't believe my little girl will be driving soon all by herself! YIKES! She gets her full license in May. Wish us luck! LOL!

Dial up sucks!

I'm waiting for my dsl to be hooked back up at my new address! Gotta love AT&T! I put the order in on January 9th, and now they tell me it will be at least 72 hours before my dsl will come on at my new address! My phone came on Thursday so it could be at least Monday before I have dsl service! This really sucks!

I am officially done moving, but still putting things away in boxes, etc. I love the new house and will take some more photos to post here for everyone to see as soon as I have faster internet service! I really don't know how we used to use dial up! LOL!

Hannah starts her new school on Monday. She's pretty excited, thank goodness! Her old teacher took some cute photos of her last day. I'll post them later as well. It would take so long with dial up.

I know I'm complaining, but it's what I do best! LOL! Take care everyone!

Ok, I'm crazy!

Yes, I keep changing the page over and over! It's very addictive and frustrating at the same time! I should be up moving things but instead I sit here playing with my page! LOL! My kids think I'm crazy and maybe they're right!



On a brigher note, I found out a friend of mine is pregnant! She's been trying for a year and a half and was ready to start fertility drugs. She went to the doctor yesterday because she thought she had an ulcer, and instead came out with a baby! LOL! She's goes back to the doctor next week for her first OB appt, but her unofficial due date for now is 8/31 I believe. I may be off by a day or two though, lol! I'm really happy for her and her family! I'm not saying who, cause you know who you are and I don't want to blab the surprise to everyone! LOL!



When Curt gets home today we are going to move more things. I can hardly wait....lol! We might move our family room furniture this weekend too, who knows? I want to move the swingset and get all the stuff from the backyard and side yard out of here, to the dump for some of it, I hope! LOL! My husband the packrat!



Well I hope my pictures have inspired some of my family to come for a visit! I'll update more later!

Cleaning house and the move goes on.

Well today I spent some time cleaning the current house we are at. It's getting easier to clean since alot of our things are in the new house. Curt still needs to get all the stuff out of the attic and the bits and pieces out of the garage. We have all our big furniture left to go too. We've been moving alot of that stuff you don't want to get rid of but don't know where to put it. Know what I mean? That stuff you put in the attic and it never comes down till you move again! LOL! Problem is I'm moving more stuff up to the attic! LOL! My closet looked like a bomb went off in there so I packed alot of it up and wala attic here I come! LOL!

I literally have no dresser now either. My clothes are minimal and we have our undies in a plastic bin in our bedroom! I sold my dresser last weekend at a garage sale, since we will be using the ones in the master bedroom at the new house. It was already full furnished, but we are not keeping all the furniture there, just the master bedroom and the dining room set. I have a picture of it here for you to see. I loved the set. I'll have to take a photo of the bedroom. Can't wait for this move!! Now I just go around the house looking for things I can pack up and move! I'm trying to keep the laundry up too since we don't have much to wear if I don't! LOL! I can't wait till it's over!

Hannah's school pictures finally came in today. Her teacher emailed me and I can't wait to see them! She had them taken in late October and it's taken sooo long to get them back. I will try and scan them for everyone to see later. Olivia's were adorable!

I haven't made it out to mow this week because it's so darned cold!! I know it's not below 0 here but I don't like cold anymore! It was 38 degrees this morning at 7:30am when I took Hannah to the bus stop. That's cold!!! It warmed to about 54. Talked to my sister and it was in the teens there! No thanks!

During the move I came across some old letters my mom had wrote to me when I younger, a teenager to be exact. I reread those letters and you know some of those things made sense to me now.....imagine that! LOL! She used to write the longest letters to me! I really enjoyed getting them. It was like she was there with me at that moment. I missed her a lot! It got me thinking that this blog would be a good thing for my kids to see what was going on in our lives and what I thinking at the time. It might be fun for them to read in 20 yrs! LOL! Who knows what technology we'll have then. I, for one, like that I can sit here and my desk and type away, much easier than sitting and writing! Faster and easier, what more can you ask for??

Tell next time!

Changing my layout

HELP!!! I'm at a complete loss. I have no idea how to change my layout! I've looked at endless websites telling me how to do it. Maybe I'll see if my 15 yr old daughter can show me. She's always changing her myspace page and I'm soooo clueless! LOL!

We are still in the middle of moving and I'm sooooo tired! The end of the month will be here before I know it! I'm getting sick and tired of packing boxes and unloading them! But I know it will be worth it!

I took a break from it today and practiced my skills at wii sports golf. I finally think I may have figured it out! I did the beginner and wound up with a -1! Now I'll have to try and challenge Curt! No, that's not me on here, just a sample I uploaded. I look much better than that mii! LOL!

Well I'm off to figure out what to cook my family for dinner! Take care!
