Okay……I know my blogging as of late has been pretty boring but PUH-LEASE don’t go blaming it on “the new boyfriend”. LOL BOYFRIEND DOES NOT = BORING!!! LOL It just means I have that much less time to blog. HA! Anyway, I was about to head to bed and thought I would post real quick some things I have in my head or that have happened recently. Very random stuff so don’t expect rhyme or reason from this post. Hope everyone has a great week! 
This is my youngest brother Casey. He is leaving for the Missionary Training Center in Provo, UT the end of the month! He is serving his mission in Lisbon, Portugal. I can’t believe how much this kid has grown……he’s turned into a big freakin’ stud! His farewell was today at church. Very nice. Lunch with the big family at Grandma’s after was great. I am very blessed with a wonderful extended family! You WILL be missed Casey! Go rock the Portugese world over there! And be sure to write. Also put me in your favorites to check on your P-days. Hee Hee.
***Heading to Mississippi again this coming weekend! YIPPEEEEE! Can’t wait to see ya baby!
***Behind on a QuicKutz deadline….YUCK! YIKES!!! But ya’ll will like these shapes!!!
***Sent a bunch of photos off to Erin Lincoln this weekend!!! I am soooo stoked to see what she does with them! A while back I won this drawing thingy for her to scrap a layout for me! Stoked I tell you!
This is because I know you are all still missing my Freak of the Week installments. I am getting down to the last few photos I had saved to my pc. I have NO IDEA what this guy was thinking…….nore do I care. LOL
***Bailee and Macey start school tomorrow. Poor things aren’t feeling well at all. Sore throats and bad coughs. We are crossing our fingers they feel well enough to go in the morning. Otherwise I will have some very disappointed kiddos home with me and Doctor’s appts to make. Say a prayer for them please!
***I am feeling really grateful for my religious beliefs these days. More so than normal. I can’t imagine not having a very personal relationship with Christ and being able to go to him in prayer on a daily basis. It’s what gets me thru the days some days.
………………..Since QuicKutz released the new paper dolls die set at CHA……I thought I would share this layout I did of Macey. I was not liking these much when they first arrived but the possibilities are endless with them. MUCH MUCH MUCH cuter than those old-school Paperkins we used back in the day. LOL (click on layout to enlarge)
***I hooked up my new DVD player all by myself today with no male consultation. That’s an accomplishment I assure you. So forgive me while I pat myself on the back.
***I had more cauliflower and ranch dressing today at my grandma’s house than any one human being should eat in a lifetime. I apologize to my girls in advance for the nasal disturbance this is going to cause over the next few days. Did I really just type that?
***Went with the girls to the movies on Saturday. We saw THE ANT BULLY. Stinkin’ cute movie!!!!
***CLICK HERE TO SEE JANNA WLSON’S LATEST BLOG ENTRY!!! She mentions my name and one of my favorite scrappy stores where I was teaching at in Oklahoma last weekend! This totally made my day! Thanks Janna! You’re too sweet!!!!
***I’m seriously in love and there’s been talk of the “M” word. Did I really just type that? DOH!!!

Love the “nasal disturbance” thing…LOL Cracking me up!! Have fun in Mississippi! Oh, and I did get my luggage back late the next night and the one suitcase was damaged. No replacement, just a voucher toward another flight — saving up for a return trip to J4K — YIPPEE!!!

M doesn’t stand for “m”oving to “m”ississippi does it?
ON a side not, remember how cool spelling Mississippi was when you were in 2nd or 3rd grade. You thought you were sooooooo cool.

Happy for your family and brother! Will he be at the UT MTC? You are going to have to write him more frequently then you post on your blog you know!
I wonder what the weekend will hold…lots of excitement I am sure!
I have a date with DD and homework…..”Jan’s Cat” I have to listen to her read it three times. I hate the nights dh is gone. If you need to know about her cat, ask Sydney!

OK- this security code thing STINKS!!!! On blogger, you can enter it later, so I forget on here. When I hit submit and it prompts me for the code, my message is lost. Grrr…. Could you get your bro to work on that?
Anyway- hope the girls felt better today!
Good luck with the “M” thing. It also stands for “m”arriage in “m”esa, Maddy.
