Twilight!!-Mobile Blogging!

Tried to blog from the blackberry....it didn't post last night....sooooo here it is!!



We are INSIDE!! YAY-not freezing our patooshies off outside!!!

For the Dog Lovers!!

One of my friends at work sent this to me. If you are a dog lover (like me) you will sit and stare at the screen memorized by this dog!

My favorite highlights are at 1:52 and 2:37 also at 4:14! I can't believe how attentive he is to his handler, watching her every move and hardly ever taking his eyes off of her face!
Enjoy



and to think, I can't even train my babies to stop pooping on the back porch!!!

Wordless Wednesday-NOT!

1 Day 13 hours and 37 minutes till TWILIGHT!!!!

This morning after dropping the Little Missy at school at 7 am, I headed to Walmart before coming in to work. I found all of the TWILIGHT supplies we will need for camping out in front of the theater tomorrow!!! It is supposed to get cold here....finally! as low as 38 degrees...YES that's cold for us Texans!!


Am I a cool mom or what??

Ragamuffin Light!

Remember this little guy?? From my "Lamp Re-do" post?

and me taking it a part! To get rid of the obnoxious glass thingy!!

Well.....here it is FINALLY finished....



I was inspired by the Nesters' Ragamuffin Garlands and really think it will be precious in my red and white country kitchen!! I am making matching garlands for my kitchen windows!!

I think it is precious!!!!

Teaser!

Only 2 Days, 13 hours, and 47 minutes until TWILIGHT!!

Movie Trailers - Movies Blog

Did I mention.....

Did I mention that I only have a four day work-week this week?? I am on vacation beginning Friday and I won’t return to the ole 9-5-er job until the Monday after turkey day!! I have soooo much to do! I have been working to do all of the chores (cleaning, laundry, etc..) In hopes that on my time off I can actually kick back, read a good book, craft to my heart’s content and blog all I want!!! I’m sure this is just a pipe dream but none the less, I am a busy girl as I work hard so I can rest…does that make any sense?? NOT!


Did I also happen to mention THE TWILIGHT MOVIE is also coming out in 4 Days?? Hmmm…how DID I forget this??? The Little Missy and I will be camping out in front of the movie theater for the very first showing at 12:01!! Yes, that’s after midnight!! No, I AM NOT too old to stay up that late!! No, I won’t have to take a nap…Stoppit!

Harleys, Brothers and Lots of LOVE!!

Last night the hubs and our oldest baby spent the afternoon (and well into the evening )at a benefit for my brother in law. He was in a near fatal motorcycle accident in August of this year. We really had a great time and they raised a whole lot of money to help his family with the unsurmountable medical bills!



John is an amazing guy with a heart of gold! We had a blast hanging out with his motorcycle "brothers" and enjoying the music from OTL. These guys were great!





This beauty is Steven's (OTL lead singer)fiancee! Cybelle you're a cutie!

It was soooo wonderful to see how many people, literally from all walks of life who came together to support this cause!


ps girls......this is one of my brother in laws who is about to be "on the market" again! I'm sure they'll be waiting in line for this one! What a catch!
