Spring Break 2010

I had the week off to spend with Jacob and we just did random things around town.
Jacob had some time in the country as I call it, he did learn how to weld, oh boy..lol We saw Avatar in 3-d with Leah & Aidan...

we had chinese, which is Jacob's favorite...

we were able to visit with many friends, do some grilling, watch some movies, both had dental appts, and got in much relaxation!

and I did make a quck trip to Hot Springs and was able to see Amber..

Happy Birthday Frederick!

We celebrated at Diversion Wine & Martini Bar in Hillcrest and it was really nice, I loved the decor!

( I promise you my concealer does not look like this until a camera flash hits it and bam! What to do?)

Susan's shower for twins :)

After 5 years of reading her blog (my 1st blog to ever read and I was hooked!) it was high time I got to meet Susan, and Megan too!

and how about Megan's precious twins, love them!

Happy Birthday Leah!

I want a blog make-over!!

I sent an email to a girl for a make-over and got a response and then I was ready to pay her and never got anything back...I do not want black & red and I do not want these old pictures as my header. Unfortunately I don't know how ... If you know someone good send them my way!

Check out this cutie pie!


I ventured out to a redneck party (at a cabin on a river)....and was I going to go night fishing? NO!!! Me in a fishing boat at night, I am thinking not!

I am off next week to spend the week with Jacob. We have a few things planned, I am excited to just spend some time together! Jacob went on a weekend retreat this past weekend with the church and he had an awesome time! And this weather we love it :)

bullets again...

Gosh my blogging has been sparatic!

• New job is keeping me busy
• Jacob is keeping me busy~he started a new youth group last night and liked it a lot. He was not comfortable in a huge youth group. He has a retreat coming up and is looking forward to it
• I am so ready for Spring! This chilly weather I have had enough of
• I want a new purse!
• My house shows how busy I am, messy messy messy...I hope the weekend allows me some time to get it in order!
• The Bachelor kept me busy on Monday nights, not sure on the outcome...now that it's over my Monday nights are open.
• It is Friday for me...the burglar has court in the morning. Yet another plea & arraignment but this time in civil court. I plan to spend the rest of the day being productive & visiting with a friend :)

Have a great weekend!!!

sweet as pie!

This baby girl came to see me yesterday! I cooked her Pioneer Woman's chicken spaghetti :) really I just cooked it for her parents! I bought her this cute outfit for this summer~ I love it!

Chili with a kick~

Saturday was a chili cookoff, kickball tournament & local bands raising money for a charity. FOTF was playing so Leah and I took the kids. It was a beautiful day!

Jacob & his duck hunting buddy Al~

Aidan was excited to meet the band and get a guitar pick~

Mayberry, OK

Not really Mayberry but much like it. Jacob and I took off for a little unplanned visit to see Michele in Oklahoma. My week last week was SO stressful and this is just what we needed!
We spent time at a bonfire~

and we spent time at the Ag barn at a livestock show. I sure wish Jacob's school had this program.

we sang Happy Birthday to Justin & Virginia~

and we shopped at Ross, a store we don't have in AR but I did find out we will be getting 3 of them. I loved this place and this is one of my finds :)
