Been BUSY

Sorry this post is LONG overdue, we've(I) been busy!! For starters, I'm working nights, doing filing/file work during tax season so I'm short on free time these days. Second, well OK that was really my only excuse. Last week my Dad and my Grandpa came down to visit. It was fun to have them here and we went to visit with our extended family that lives near. We also bought a new camera and updated our Computer so it's been down for a week and I have NO IDEA how to get the pictures off our camera now. I've got to figure it out soon though, the new camera only holds like 15 pics! So, keep on blogging all of you and I'll catch up ASAP!! (Or April 16th)

Cute AND Funny!

This morning I said to Damen:

"Are you a Baby?"

Damen- "No"

"Are you a big boy?"

Damen-"No"

"What? You're not a big boy?"

Damen-"No. . . I a big train!"

NO one wants a surprise?

Well, since the only person to post a comment was Essy, she's getting all five homemade things!! Not really, but I thought I'd try this again:

The next four people to post a comment on THIS post will get something homemade, no need to publish the previous post on your own blog.

READY. SET. GO!

Seriously, I just want an excuse to makes stuff:)

Homemade Surprise

I got this from my girl Essy, she's great and I can't wait to see what she makes me!

I have a great idea for the five lucky ones so hurry up and post/comment!!

Here's the fun in Ali's words and I hope you will join in:



"Are you excited yet? If so, be sure to be one of the first five people to respond to this post. I hereby commit to offer the first five individuals to comment on this post a homemade gift of my choosing; however, in order to post a comment, you have to first post this on your own blog and agree to do the same for another five people. You in turn have the opportunity to do likewise to this post and be the recipient of a fun homemade gift from me.

There are of course some restrictions, because I am not Superwoman.

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. This thing will be completed sometime this year. :)
4. You have no clue what it will be, leftover-casserole anyone? Just kidding.
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

REMEMBER THE CATCH: YOU MUST RE-POST THIS ON YOUR BLOG" -Ali

February 5th, 1998

On that night so many years ago, with the help of my good friend(Yvonne), roommate(Alisha), and a boy I hardly knew(Blake), I was set up on a blind date for our Dorm Dance. The theme was a Hawaiian Luau, very fitting in February in Idaho, we had Teriyaki Chicken and rice for dinner and dressed up in Hawaii/touristy outfits. I danced that night and fell in LOVE with my date. Dustin was amazing and he didn't even know it, in fact he wasn't even trying. We used to celebrate this day every year as the beginning of the end, but it's gotten lost over the years as more important things/dates have crept into our lives. But yesterday I made Teriyaki chicken and rice for dinner and Dustin danced with me in the kitchen, and we remembered that night, the night I fell in love with my husband.

How do you do that?

FELLOW BLOGGERS:

Ok, so I've noticed that lots of you bloggers change up your backgrounds, often, how do you do that without losing all of your lists/widgets??? Do you back them up somewhere or am I missing something?? Please help, I'm bored with my current design.
Thanks!

How could we stand to leave our beautiful son for an entire week you may ask?

Well it's quite simple really, we're going on a CRUISE!! Finally, we're really going this time, no backing out, no change of plans, we're going!! My parents, sisters, brothers-in-law, Gary and Shellee Lewis, their 6 kids, and spouses are all going!! We're leaving out of Miami, going to Belize and some other random islands and we're going to have an AWESOME TIME!! I'm really very excited about it. In fact, I went outside today trying to get a tan, you can never prepare too early for these things.
