Twins?




I have two brothers, one is the oldest, and the other one is the baby! They are partners in a business. There was a picture of my older brother in the paper this week about their business......he looks a lot like my dad, but there is 23 years between them. Everyone thinks it is my dad in the paper, and they keep telling us how good he looks even with his cancer!!!!!!

Way to go Nicky!

My brothers own a business together, and there was an article in the paper about it! This is my soon to be three year old nephew Nicholas reading the article.....and also going potty for the first time!! He looks so serious!

My first concert was Elvis Presley...I even remember what I wore, and my wedge shoes!


Jessica Simpson was first.......she should have never left Nick..........

Our New Arrival!!!!!

We decided Daisy needs a playmate! We have been waiting patiently for her mom to have another litter! The babies were born yesterday, Bella had three girls and three boys! We get first pick of the litter. The breeder wants us to wait a few weeks before we decide our pick! We are also trying to think of a name.....I had an easier time naming three kids, then I am naming this puppy! The mom is a Cavalier King Charles, and the Dad is a Bichon. Daisy and her new friend will have the same mom, but different dads!

I'm hooked!

The bachelor......I always say....NO I AM NOT WATCHING ANOTHER SEASON.....and here I am.....Melissa is my favorite......


my new best friends

I had a bit of an incident last week.........slipped, hit my head on the side of a car....which broke my fall....then my head it the ice. It stunned me a little, when I sat up I thought I was ok until I felt the blood running down my neck. Thank goodness my friend Marilyn was with me, she kept me calm. I asked her to call my mom....I guess it doesn't matter how old I am, I always want my mom!! My sister was just leaving so she was able to take me to the hospital...... 4 staples later I was on my way home! My mom and dad puchased these for me.....I was skeptical at first, but they really do work well!! I still wonder if I need an MRI, CAT Scan etc......they assure me I am fine!!!

Thankful for a New Year!!!

I am so happy to say good-bye to 2008, and hello to 2009........with my dad being sick the last 18 months, it has been very stressful for me. I try to not think about his cancer, but I am a worrier, have always been, and will always be! He is feeling great, and I am so grateful that I get to work with him every day......especially when he is in a good mood.....HA!!

The kids had a great Christmas. As they get older they are realizing what Christmas is really about. They also finally figured out that I buy my own gifts.....they asked me why.....I said " Momma don't like to be surprised"!!!!! Jim did get me a Sephora gift card...my favorite store that I could spend hours at!

I also suprised the kids with their 11 year old Dr.'s visit! The poor things had to get 5 shots... Grant had to only get 4.......they are done now until they go to college.......they complained for days, and then we saw our DR. at church, they told him they were mad at him!!!!

My sister and I also started making some very cute signs. We are calling our business.....The Signs of Life.....bringing words to life......we are having so much fun making them. Our new spring line will be coming soon........
