What a Weekend!

Here's my decorated self. I was quite full of school spirit on our homecoming float in the parade. I was made fun of by my dear classmates, but that's okay. Oh, I also said how fun it would be to hit a little kid in the head, and then I did, on accident, oops! I was trying to let the kid catch it and it hit him right in the forhead, I said I was sorry and then pitched one in the road for him to fetch!

Not only was this Halloween, but it was homecoming, and re-union weekend. Thank goodness I got an extra hour of sleep, I so needed it!!

Here's my other child, Ava, you've seen her on my postings before. She's in a roll the pumpkin race, isn't she cute?!

Here's Olivia rolling her pumpkin. Go, Olivia, go!

Here's Edna, Ava's mother. She's such a great friend, she watched my kids so I could go out with David and my classmates! Thanks, Edna! Edna is such a crafter. Her costume is raining cats and dogs if you didn't get that from the picture. Nothing is boring after she touches it!!

Here's my adorable princesses! Nothing more precious than my girls!

Me and Amanda. I remember taking a picture in the same spot 11 years ago. Time flies!

Here's Ryan Doyle, Misty Garrett and Amanda Benkula. Amanda was my buddy in high school and we still keep in touch.

Here's Stephen and Kim. Such a sweet couple! I was so excited to see them!

This is Ryan and Misty. This picture is so funny because Misty bought her hat from Bandera and Ryan made fun of it and said she could have gotten it from a gas station. We walk into a gas station and sure enough there were hats similar to hers. I told him to put one on and walk up to her. He gave her a complex, but we had a lot of laughs!

Here we are eating at Chili's. We had so many laughs my face hurt! David is with us, he's taking the picture.

Here's 7 out of our 23 classmates. Nine of us showed up. We rode in the homecoming parade together and then we went to the school to talk and be a part of an assembly. Two of our classmates walked out of the assembly because they refused to get up in front of everyone and tell about themselves. In this picture we have Stephen Moffet, Kim Moffett (they were high school sweethearts), Amanda Alexander Benkula, Misty Garrett, Me, and Jana Rowan.

Later we went to dinner and then went to Moffet Park in Medina for old times. We talked a lot and of course made jokes about old times. I laughed so hard! We created memories I'll never forget! I hope to see everyone in 10 years if not before that!

Class of '99

Today is my 10 year high school reunion, why they have it in 2008 and not 2009 I'll never know, but anyway. I couldn't decide what to wear so I made an outfit! I am so crappy with crafts, but hopeful it will look okay. I couldn't sleep last night and the idea came to me to use my stained up favorite jeans and black shirt that I never wear (oh, I really am looking forward to the black shirt to cover all my back fat and front fat!) and decorate them with sparkling paints. I'll post pictures later. Almost forgot, of course they are the paints that dry really slow and of course I thought of all this at 11:00pm last night and I have to be at the homecoming parade at 9:30 and of course I had to decorate front and back. I've been using the blow dryer a lot to help me get the darn things dry. Is it just me or is everything more fun when your trying to beat a deadline! Our school colors are blue and yellow. Just thought I'd show a little more school spirit! Go, Bobcats, Go! Can't you just hear the cheering!!

Go to holycoast.com and in the search box type Obama and his radical abortion views. Then watch the video on it. It's unbelievable, I feel like vomiting after watching that!

Fun at the Pumpkin Patch

Here's Caroline with her scarecrow she dressed.
Here's Olivia, Ava, and Caroline. Ava is a favorite friend. They both wanted Ava in their lap, although Ava is almost as tall and out weighs Caroline by 10lbs!

Here's the cuties again. Ava calls her mother Mommom and calls me Mommy.

She is so cute and sweet!

Here's Olivia as Johnny Appleseed.

What's Been Going On

Cute Kids! Here's Carley, Caroline, Olivia, Eli, and Corbin riding the Strawberry at the County Fair.

Here we are on vacation in a cave in Arkansas. We had to crawl to get to this big room with a waterfall in it. The kids did fine on the way in, but on the way out, Caroline, wanted David to carry her out. Try carrying a kid and crawling, doesn't work so well!!

We went on a tour of this house in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. It is so neat. This woman collected rocks since she was a kid, so when she got married her husband took those rocks and together they began to build this house. There is a neat story behind it, but I won't go into all the details, it's called the "Quigley Castle" if your interested in finding the story. There are trees growing inside that are growing up to the second story. The inside is amazing. Rocks, shells, fossils, butterflies and other things she collected are everywhere. The garden is as incredible. It has rock birdbaths, arches, pots, baskets everywhere, she made all of them.

This Church is also in Eureka Springs. It's made out of just glass except for the framing. Incredible!

Here's Caroline waiting for our pennies to be smashed by the train we were riding. She's such a stinker!!

Here's Big Mama and Caroline riding the Carosel at the County Fair.

Here is Olivia letting a monkey climb on her arms at the Grayson County Fair, I never thought she would do it!

Look Who's 3!

My baby turned 3 today! She's no longer a baby but, a big girl, so she says. She said good-bye to her good friend, the sippy cup yesterday. Bittersweet memories! We celebrate birthday weeks, so yesterday was the first day we celebrated. We had a little party with us and David's parents. Olivia and David decorated with crepe streamers everywhere, it looks so cute! Today is the official birthday! We will go to the pumpkin patch in Medina with our good friends and have all kinds of fun I'm sure! She's so proud when we tell her that she looks 3. For some reason she thinks she has to get naked and so we can tell that she is bigger now, it's hillarious!

I think I could sport this look!
