Madilyn is having her cousins over for the weekend. Hannah, Kaylee, and Madilyn are having a blast. The girls came home with Steve from work last night. We had dinner and they played until way to late! LOL!!!! They were up early and playing like crazy girls! Including jumping on the bed. After a breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast, they are off again. Up the stairs...down the stairs...up the stairs...down the stairs....oy! Wonder which one is going to fall down them first!

Tonight I am going to the Wilmington Library to scrapbook with friends overnight. It is going to make for a long tomorrow, but soooo worth it. Mary, Nikki, Trisha, April...all coming from out of town. Then there are the crazy locals....Mary, Robbie, Katie, Ethel! And I think Aunt Jane is joining us as well. It should be a great time! I can't wait! And that leave Steve with all three girls! bwahahahahahahaha! I'm wondering which girls will be beaten first! LOL!

Annoyed at myself

So I realized today that I read several blogs a few times a week. And I get annoyed that some of them haven't been updated in almost a month. This shouldn't annoy me...these people don't blog for me. But I love looking at their creations and I love reading about their lives. Now, I come to my blog and realize that if you were following my blog, you too would be annoyed. I update so infrequently! And I blame facebook. I upload pictures there, and update about our lives there. It's sad really! And I said at the beginning of this year that I would do better...ya, right! So here it is, 30 minutes from April first...and I am going to declare to do better once again.

Tomorrow I have an interview for a job! We REALLY need me to get this job!

Madilyn's cousin are going to spend the weekend at our house this weekend.

On Saturday, I get to scrap with some of my bff's. Nikki, April, Mary, Trisha, Robbie, and Katie! I can't wait. Although, Sunday will be a very long day. It's an overnighter at the Wilmington Library. From 6 pm to 11 am. I will be one tired momma on Sunday. But hopefully, I will have to get up bright and early for work on Monday! So if you are reading this, say a little prayer for me!!!

ONLY TWO WEEKS!!!!

Two weeks from tomorrow. I can't believe it's almost here. I am super excited and have a ton of stuff that needs doing. All little things of course! We are at 120. The most we've had to date. I still have last minute donations trickling in! Now to sort all that stuff. It's fun to look at, but disappointing that I can't add it to my own stash.

If you have friends that are unable to attend, please tell them about this blog. There will be challenges and prizes here too!!!!

New Addition to our family!


Meet Bailey... She is part beagle, part chihuahua. She is the light of Madilyn's eye! And we love her!

Madilyn's Tonsilectomy

On February 8, Madilyn had her tonsils and adenoid removed. It was scarier for me than her I think! LOL! She was a trooper. She came home the night of the surgery and ate some salisbury steak. I am so proud of how she acted and reacted during the whole ordeal. And of course, I took some pictures.


March 2...already?

I have managed to let 2 whole months pass without blogging. You would think that since I don't have a job, I would be blogging everyday! Yeah, ok.

Well, I think I will catch up a bit tonight.

Happy New Year

Today is the first day of 2011!

I am excited and going into the new year with an attitude of the glass half full. This year has got to be better than last year. My cancer diagnosis and being told I was cancer free. We lost some people very dear to us and they will be missed dearly. I was "downsized" out of my job. And I'm still looking. I did work for 6 weeks at the mall on the Santa set. It was a lot of fun and a lot of work! But well worth it. So...on to 2011. May we prosper in the coming year! May our loives be filled with joy, love and laughter!
