Where I've been

I know everyone has to be wondering where I've been all week?! Or at least a few have noticed that I haven't been posting?! Maybe, hopefully, surely...I don't know, but if you are one of the ones wondering, I've been having a slight obsession with entering over 1,000 bloggy giveaways at www.donttryit.com/bloggy_giveaways! I know, kinda crazy to sit around and actually enter nearly all of them! But it's been fun and I hope to win at least 1!! So, with that being said, I promise to be back with your regularly scheduled program at least by Sat. See ya soon!

Not Me Monday

It's that time again! Not Me Monday's with MckMama is underway! Check out her blog to read other Not Me post's and be prepared to stay awhile and enjoy the laughs!

1. I did not find Kennedie playing make up last week. And she did not say "I look piitttyyy mama" when I caught her. And I did not have to run grab my camera, all the while laughing my butt off!

2. I am not already tired of deer season, because I definetly do not feel like a single mom, while daddy is hunting everyday that he's off work!
3. I did not take my 3 yr old to preschool this morning with partially wet hair, because I didn't have time to dry it all the way! And it wasn't very cold this morning when I didn't do that!
4. I did not wake up to 3 kids in the bed with me this morning and wonder why I did not sleep well last night!

I can't think of anymore at the moment, now I'm off to read other Not Me posts. Have a great week everyone!!

Last Game of the Season

Yesterday was Stratton's last football game of the season. This was his first year to play. He didn't know much about it at all when he started, but he finally began to catch on in the end. He didn't get much playing time each game. He wasn't very aggressive, I think because he was scared he would do something wrong. But, I think next year will be better. He likes it a lot! Here a some pics from the game.

I had to keep chasing Kennedie because she kept wanting to play under the bleachers.(see below) The pictures where they are all lined up on the field is when they gave them their trophies for the season. We came in 3rd. (i think...LOL) It was a lot of fun, but I am glad it's over with!

Oh yea, we lost by the way, but it was a very good game!

Photostory Friday

It's always nice when I find my little princess in situations like this! All I could do was laugh to be honest with you. I know, I should've scolded her, but I couldn't help but smile when I got this response, "I look pitttyy mama"!! Yes that's mascara and my make up bag behind her.

My 10 year Class Reunion

O.K. as promised, here are some pictures from my reunion! I didn't take very many and the ones at the resturant are dark! We started the day with a picnic so everyone could see each other's little ones. It was a lot of fun and there were more people there than I expected. That night we went to The River(a local resturant and bar) where we had steak, a DJ, and dancing! It was a blast! I wish I would've taken more pictures! And the only one of me dancing is the really dark one, but I think I'm kinda glad! LOL!

Oh My! 2 Awards at Once!

I am overly excited about these bloggy awards I am getting! I know that's very childish of me to be sooo excited about a being picked for a blog award, but I DON'T CARE...LOl You can laugh at me if you want too!!
This particular beauty was given to me by Heidi at Tayterjaq's Rebels! I have just recently "met" her and she doesn't know a whole lot of bloggy friends yet, so please stop by and say Hello! She's so sweet and I love getting her comments on my posts!

The rules of this award is that I have to list 6 things that I love! So, here it goes:

1. I LOVE the LORD! I am so thankful to have Jesus in my life and especially to have just recently gotten Him back active in my life! By that I mean, until a few months ago, I didn't go to church, I rarely prayed, and I made very bad choices everyday from the words that came out of my mouth to acting ways I shouldn't have been acting. I'm not saying that I still don't do wrong, because everyone is guilty of sin. I don't care who you are, you sin too! But I've been making great strides to straighten up my life and live for the Lord and not for myself, my family, or other junk in this crazy world. Oh, and it's been so great meeting so many people on blogs that love the Lord and speak of Him often as well. This helps me a lot and gives me courage to keep on stepping to the right tune!

2. I LOVE my family! I love my children: Stratton, Trenton, Kennedie, and Kadence- I love my mom, dad, sister, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.! Family is great and it's nice to live fairly close to most of mine!!

3. I LOVE my friends! I love my best friend Keitha! She's wonderful and is always there for me no matter what the situation is! I wish she blogged so you could all "meet" her too. (maybe I'll try to talk her into it!) I love my bloggy friends as well! I've met so many wonderful people on this computer that I'm shocked!! I never thought I would enjoy reading and getting to know so many people when I decided to join the blog world! But I'm so glad that I have and I can't wait to meet more! I also LOVE my new church friends! They are all great and I'm so glad to have met them!

4. I LOVE to eat!! O.K., so I dipped into a lighter side of my loves, but hey everything doesn't have to be so serious! LOL! I like real food, junk food, fast food, you name it, I probably like it! I really should eat healthier and have actually been contemplating it over and over in my head, but just haven't took that course of action! I get kind of sad when I think about leaving my double-stuffed oreos, powdered donuts, and candy (this list is too long to name..sry!!)

5. I LOVE The Biggest Loser! Right now this is my highlight of the week, which was tonight! I love this show and you would think it would inspire me to get rid of those bad habits up there! But, nope, I enjoy watching it while I eat that stuff most of the time! I know, that's pitiful, but hey, I'm honest!!

6. I LOVE music! I love christian music, country music, hip hop..I like a lot of different kinds of music! I love to drive and listen to tunes! It's very relaxing to me!(not to mention it drowns out the screaming kiddos pretty well too!!)

Now, the rules say to pass this on to six of my bloggy friends! So here I go:

1. Amie at Heart Smiles! I love reading this blog! She is such an inspiration and I get smiles (and tears) often while reading her posts!

2. Rissa at My Hands Dance. I've recently started reading her blog and her family has a lot of similarities to my family!

3. Marie at Sawyerfied! I love reading this blog as well! She has lots of stories about her family and many references to scripture!

4. Avery Tales! She leaves lots of great comments and I enjoy reading about her little family a bunch!

5. Shelley at Wherever Life Takes Us! This is my Aunt and she is the one who encouraged me to start blogging. I read her blog a many of times before starting my own and she's also the one that did my header! She makes lots of posts and is a wonderful photographer! You should really go check out her stuff, she's great!!

6. Mandy at Peace and Craziness! This is another local blog and church friend of mine! She is a wonderful mother and is devoted to the Lord. She also helps adopt out pets who are in shelters or that she just finds wondering around! She loves to help people and she writes great posts, so go check her out as well!

By the way, for the ones who think I left you out...it's just because I knew you already had received this award recently *grin*! I haven't forgotten you!!!
