New job is helping us catch up on the past. However, it seems that people are getting increasingly dumber. Okay, so maybe not the nicest thing to say, but may be necessary. Crazy situations causing a lot of energy. Think I will begin yoga again. I seemed at peace when I was practicing before. Yes, that is my new solution! I will breathe, make sure I take me time, begin doing yoga, and of course,

It has been a long time since I have posted anything new. I am back and will post information. Justin took his first test for a belt. We will know in two weeks if he passed. We moved to Indiana. It is only 4 hours away, but warmer. It is Jan. and is suppose to get up to 50 tomorrow. Heat Wave. Love my new job. Love our new dog. Yes, we had to get rid of Mona. (The dog from an earlier post.) Now

The 9 yr old made his car and  plane by himself. No help from dad. Well, a little help from dad, but he did a great job on his own. He is getting too big.  80)

Yes, that is the question I am pondering at this time. Our Basset Hound continues to pee on our youngest son's bed. We find the remains, but we are confused as to when she sneaks up those stairs , past the baby gate to do it. AND why? Why his room? Why his bed? She asks to go out every two hours and she is taken out. She is cute, lovable, and sweet. She takes off if she is not on a

Yesterday while I was at mom's helping her with her perpetual calendar, dad and Justin built a plane and a bird feeder from Justin's kit. Those kits are one of the best gifts the boys got. They don't need anything, but wood glue (comes in it) and they get to build 4 cool projects. Justin only has one left- the bird house. Here they are. Apparently, the new paint color of choice is purple.

Well, today is the beginning of a new year. Honestly, it seemed like any other day to me. However, the family went sledding. Well, the boys were sledding while I took pictures. Got some wonderful shots. Everyone had fun. Daddy had a great slide; he captured some big air. We all took a walk. It was nice to do something as a family instead of everyone in the house doing their own thing. Went to

Just wanted to say Happy New Year. If you are out and about, watch the roads. The warm weather was nice this afternoon, but it has all frozen and turned to ice. Watch those steps, roads, and sidewalks. Stay safe and wishing you all the best.

Husband, son (Justin), and I played Wii today. It was fun. Husband and I need some time for ourselves though. I can't remember the last time we had the cash and the time both together where we could go out on a date. Ah Date Night. The memories. It is a needed thing for us and soon. Hubby is putting oldest to bed. I am going to take youngest soon. If I can stay awake, maybe hubby and I can have

Okay, so I think Spongebob is funny sometimes. However, my family loves this show. They even quote Spongebob when they feel the time is right. I guess I just don't understand or maybe it is because "I'm a girl." Whatever it is I can't believe that this is the show of choice for my children.

Hubby and Max are out hunting rabbits. Carry, Justin, and I went to see Dave; then, we went to the store. Carry and I looked at scrapbooking items. Nothing exciting to see there. We need to leave Coldwater and go to a bigger town to find better stuff. Oh well, we are all broke anyway.

Kalamazoo, Michigan was hit today by the snow. Unfortunately, it was too cold to play outside in it. My son, Justin, wants to rebuild our snowman. He melted in the rain on Christmas day. However, we played inside today. Daddy helped him build a race car and paint it. Mom helped with the stickers. Well, I just sat and watched that is about as much help as he would allow me. Here is a picture of

Christmas morning we woke our 4 yr old up to open presents at 7:30 am. Grandma was here and we were all excited. Apparently, we were more excited than he was. He would not wake up. We put presents on his lap, told him Santa came, and even sang Christmas carols. Nothing worked. Finally at around 8 am, I played his Mickey Christmas toy, which plays Deck The Halls (his favorite), and he woke up.

Yeah! I finally found a blank perpetual calendar. I ordered it from Etsy.com ( http://www.etsy.com ); there was only one left, but if you are looking, keep checking the site. That is what I had to do. Now, if it comes on time, I can make one for my mom for the holiday. I will post pictures as soon as I have them.

Mom wants cut files for some picture mats for Christmas. I plan to do, but how do you not let the person know when you don't know the size of the frames or the pictures? I guess I will be asking her. Not much of a surprise gift, but she'll like them anyway.

Okay, so I did some cut files with the DS. They turned out great. I made a Disney word book, a mickey border, and some journals. I want to put the cut files up here, but am not sure how to do it. Any advice would be great.Thanks.

I am new to this blogging thing, but I wanted a place to share my scrapbooking fun. I scrapbook whenever time allows. My mom owns the Cricut Expression and I bought the CDS to go with it. I am just learning how much it can do. I love it. I will post some cut files as soon as I make sure they work. My mom is a Mickey Mouse fan, so you can be sure there will be some Disney files. Thanks for
