We had such a fun time visiting with all the cousins (and the rest of the family). Thanks again to all those who helped out & got everything together & for transportation! Many many memories were made! Can't wait for the next annual(2nd or 3rd?) Cousin's Weekend. Hopefully next year more cousin's will be able to attend we did miss those that weren't there. Hope you enjoyed the pictures & let me know if there are any that you'd like me to send you in email for you to keep. (or you can click the picture & on the next screen right click & save to your computer)

What fun!!!!

Pictures from Cousin's Weekend coming soon!!!

We only have a few more movies left. I just wanted to do one last check and make sure no one wants them. Here is what we have left:

Where The Red Fern Grows [from Feature Films For Families]
Jurassic Park
Bloodsucking Pharaohs in Pittsburgh
Three Kings
It's a Wonderful Life
Titanic
Dirty Dancing
Dances with WolvesArmageddon
The Return of Jafar(sequel for Aladdin)
Batman Returns

Ok, let me know if you want any of these. For those of you that have already requested some movies, I am getting them together and will be getting them to you shortly!

Wow...

Coke anyone?

Isn't this amazing? This guy Kurt does these with pastel chalk on the street. It's so cool! Check out his site & all the amazing work. It's so crazy, it doesn't even look like it is on a flat surface.

Well, anyway just thought I'd share!

Here are a couple more:

Like LOTRs???

Meg showed me this funny "music video" tonight. It is so funny(IMO)!!! If you have seen The Lord of the Ring movies then you'll know what it's from. I was ROFL(ok ok, not quite but almost!)!!

It's not very long you gotta check out Mashed Taters**!! It's kind of random but funny! And just for the fun of it check out Amburgers & Wootbeer** it's cute! Pointless but cute! If you like A&W you'll appreciate it!

**FYI: I would rate these two as G, but I'm not so sure about the others on the site.**

Let me know what you think!!!

For those of you who have given your picks I am planning on bringing the movies with me to the cousins day to pass out then.

Movies Anyone?

Today my mom & I decided to go through our movie "collection". We have wanted to weed out the movies on VHS that we don't watch anymore ("kid movies") or that we got on DVD. Before getting rid of the movies we wanted to see if anyone would like any of the movies. So if you see any movies on the list that you would like to have let me know via comment or email and I'll do my best to get the movie to you. I guess if there is a movie that more than one person wants I'll do "first to let me know gets it". And I'm sure everyone wouldn't mind sharing. So let me know if your family would like to have any of the movies.

Here they are(all of VHS):
A Christmas Story
Where The Red Fern Grows [from Feature Films For Families]
Jurassic Park
Robin Hood Prince of Thieves
Bloodsucking Pharaohs in Pittsburgh
The Naked Gun
Three Kings
Charlotte's Web
The Neverending Story
It's a Wonderful Life
The Princess Bride
Welcome to the Freakshow [DC Talk live in concert]
Harry and The Hendersons
Titanic
Dirty Dancing
Dances with Wolves
On Our Own[from Feature Films For Families](our's doesn't look like the one shown on the link but I believe it's the same story, just an older version!)
Mrs. Doubtfire
Armageddon
The Return of Jafar
Rigoletto(Loved it!) [From Feature Films For Families]
Batman Returns
Ace Ventura Pet Detective
Wayne's World
Ever After

I personally have not seen all of these movies but a lot of them were movies that I loved growing up!! So let me know!

Notice anything different???

Like the new look??? Great job dad!!!

After a week of hard work (mostly by my dad). Our Den looks great! I think all the rain really helped because there wasn't much else to do than work on the floors!!

Thank God we didn't get the entire storm...only a little bit of the bands! My prayers are with those that did get the whole thing. Even though they are saying on the news that it wasn't that bad (mainly because Ivan wiped out everything first) I still know that there has to be some hardships!!

Hope everyone is having a good week (so far). Meg is at camp with the church this week! She starts her SENIOR year (can you believe it?)AUG 3RD! (isn't that crazy...very early) I start back on the the 22nd!

I've been getting all my nursing stuff ready (Paper work, immunization, physicals, etc.) I have to get my uniform & I don't sign up for class until next week, so I dont have my books yet!

I hear there is a "Cousins Day" coming up. I'm not sure if I'm going or not. My schedule seems to be open, but like I said Meg starts school on the 3rd so she won't be able to go & I don't really want to driving by myself. And I kinda don't want to go without Meg...(she really wants to go). I think next(summer) we should make it earlier in the summer because (I think) our school schedule always ends up starting when the "Cousins Day" happens. Oh well....actually next year probably won't matter because Meg will be graduating! (Oh My gosh!!! That's crazy!)

OK well that's it for now! And for all of the "Florida People" let's keep an eye out on that Tropical Depression out there!

Lata!

Angel getting all snug with a Target bag in Meg's closet! Awww how cute!

What is this?

Another *wonderful* hurricane season on it's way???????? Let's hope not!

Happy Fourth of July!!!!!!!!!

I hope you guys have a great day!!! Whatever it is that you are doing I hope you have fun & be safe!! Let's remember those that are fighting for us & say a prayer for them as they are away from their loved ones.

I have an announcement to make....

Drum roll................


I just found out yesterday that I was accepted into the Nursing Program for this August! I'm very excited. I've been waiting forever(it seem) to find out. Now I have a lot of paper work to complete & stuff before classes actually start. I'm going to be busy! It's kind of overwhelming, but I'll be ok! Just wanted to let everyone know! Keep me in your prayers as I get everything together & ready to start! I hear Nursing 1 is very challenging...But I'm up for it! :O)

We had "Lake Day" after church today, we went out on the boat tubing. It was a lot of fun, but man am I'm sore. You use a lot of muscles trying to stay on the tube when their goal is to dump you off of it!

I also had lot of fun this weekend with Wyatt & all those that were here. Pictures coming soon...I didn't get to load the picture on the computer today but I'm going to put them up soon. I got a lot of really cute ones!

ok, so that's the news!!! Hope you all have a great Fourth of July!!!

Mom, this one's for you

Thought I'd share the news...Bo Bice got married.

The couple, who have been together for almost two years, exchanged vows at the New Hope Presbyterian church on June 15.
Bice and Fisher's marriage certificate was granted Thursday in Shelby County, Ala. The singer's rep had no comment.
