I have decided that I am going to write about alot of different topics, things my family and I are up to, things that interest me, new adventures, etc. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #7f6000;"> So the first post in this new direction, is a post about something I am doing. I have decided to start a new business. Just like most of you, things around here are a little tight, and I want to do my part to lighten the load. I am starting as a Heritage Maker Consultant. I am so excited to be part of a company that truly is, right up my alley. Heritage Makers has been around for about 5 years now, and focuses on bringing families together through storybooking. They are an internet based company that provides the tools you need to create amazing products that will be treasured for years to come. I love that I get to blend my love for pictures, families, and sales, together in a way that will help other families to capture what makes their families so special and unique. It is also great b/c Heritage Makers allows me to work all over the country from the comfort of my own home. I have decided to call the name of my business "Every Memory Matters." I feel that it expresses the real basis of the company. Check out my website, and facebook page by the same name. The facebook page has all the current specials and also some of the projects I am currently working on. Let me know if there are any question I can answer, or anr projects I can help you create. I am here to be your personal publishing consultant.</span></span><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>An introduction to our family members!</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-size: small;">Orson: The Dad</span></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">He works at Eileen Merritt's ATS, in the civil engineering </span><span style="font-size: small;">department although he has been doing tons of other stuff around there too lately. He loves to fish, and actually just brought the bass boat home so he is really excited, now if he could just get out on the water and fish it would be better. He has been brewing homemade soda concoctions for almost three years now I think. His favorite of course is root beer, and every once in a while he try out other flavors. Currently brewing in the fridge are root beer and lemon-lime. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Lisa: The Mom</b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">She is a stay at home mom, and has been full-time since Feb. of 2008. She works with the young women of the Buda Ward, and loves every minute of it. She likes to sew and off and on makes blankets and burp cloths for friends that are having babies. She just took a machine quilting class and is excited to actually try it out on some new projects. She loves to relax in her hammock out back when the heat isn't too hot and the grass isn't too high. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Savannah: The Oldest</b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">She is almost 3 (33 months, or if you want to be exact see the banner at the top of the blog). She is a busy little girl. She loves to "help you," even though we know she really isn't "helping." She is playing with dolls, and love to change their diapers. We have to keep an eye out b/c many of them have ended up with butt paste on their bottoms (it doesn't come off very well). at Grammy Karen's she loves to play with her "Polly Pocket" houses and people. She is an outdoors kinda girl...as long as someone is out there with her. At Grandma and Papa Anderson's house she loves to help them gather food from the garden. She is a great little mommy to her younger brothers and loves to tell them what to do, and more importantly...what NOT to do. Her vocabulary grows by leaps and bounds everyday, and she would not complain if you were to just sit and let her tell you about everything.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Seth: The Middle Child</b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Our Little Seth is going to be 2 this fall (21 months,</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> or again, if you want to be exact see the banner at the top of the blog</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">). He is a daredevil, as proved by our trip to the ER Last Night. He fell off a chair and was met by a brick hearth, he had a cut in the back of his head that took 5 stitches to close up. He loves to jump, climb, and swing upside down from anything he can. He also loves animals, although he prefers that they don't try and come near him most of the time. He is also exploring the wonderful world of communication and is finally beginning to talk. Seth loves to be daddy's little sidekick. If Orson is home Seth is at his side.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Shawn: The Youngest</b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Shawn is already 2 months old. It is hard to believe. He is growing fats. A lot of his 0-3 month clothes are too small...he's tall...big surprise there. He has some hair, but of course it is Blonde so what he does have, you can't see. Everyone comments on his eyes. They are also bright and alert, and it doesn't hurt that his eyelashes are amazing. Combine those eyes with his new ever present smile, and you will be smitten for sure. He loves to smile and coo at anyone who will give him some attention. He is the youngest for sure, the poor kid thinks it's normal to be sat on or smooshed. He is very patient and calm mannered. And the biggest accomplishment for any new mom is that he is sleeping through the night. I make sure he's fed when we go to sleep around midnight and he will sleep till 7 or 8am. Yehaw!!! It's awesome. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">So in a nutshell, we are all doing well. Shawn's visit brought a lot of good family time. This was the first birth that all 5 of the grandparents were able to be at. It was a really special time, and we will always treasure that memory. My dad was able to be here for about a week, and my kids loved the chance to get to know Papa Curtis and Grandma Florence. Thanks again guys! Grammy Karen, Grandma and Papa Anderson were amazing in helping out while I recovered, they came to the house and hung out with my kids so I could rest after being released form the hospital. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">We are enjoying our summer, spending alot of time playing with our slip-n-slide, water hopscotch, and swimming in the pool. Sometime even Daddy gets to have fun with us. One of our favorite days with Daddy was a special visit to the McKenna Children's Museum in New Braunfels. We finished that day off with dinner at The Gristmill. Yum Yum. Great Restaurant, Great Town! </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

Well, that project became too big and I was overwhelmed. I decided to post a quick summary of what we did this summer and early fall. I do have a bunch of pictures posted on facebook if you are on there, and I still might post some of my favorites. Our family has experienced a lot of changes since my last post in May...sorry.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The kids and I drove out to Cali with a friend in June to visit everyone and help mom with the house, as she was retiring and selling the Cerritos house. We had a great visit, we went to Disneyland, spent time with family and friends, and shared memories about growing up in that house. We got back in time to celebrate the 4th of July with the Andersons' in Georgetown and celebrate David's (my nephew's) birthday. Mid-month my mom got here, she is building a house in Buda, and until it's ready will be staying with us. I welcome the help and company, the kids are loving having her around. We also got to spend a few hours with my Aunt Deanne who had driven out with her from CA. Thanks! At the end of the month we went to Sea World with my niece to celebrate her birthday...all I can say is that we ended up having a great time, but man the Texas heat kicked my butt that day. <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">August started great as we went out to Brenham to participate in Brittany's (my niece's) baptism. It was a great weekend and I'm glad that we got to go. The next week we had a visit from my brother Christopher and his wife Victoria. Orson and I took them out and we did some Austin sightseeing via the Duck tour. It was a ton of fun and we learned a ton about our city. After sending them off Orson and I ran away to San Antonio for the week. My mom was nice enough to watch the kids for us. That weekend a few of my girlfriends met me in San Antonio and we had a blast.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">September was kinda quiet around here, we played and played and played. We were sad to say goodbye to Fridays at the pool with our playgroup. <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">October though made up for the lull, birthdays, birthdays, and more birthdays. Orson started off the month...we celebrated at home and he had a rice crispy cake. Orson and the kids then went camping with Daniel and Lisa and had a great time. Savannah's birthday came next with a little party at home and some great one-on-one time with each of the grandparents. I can hardly believe that she is really two. The next weekend was Seth's first birthday party. We had a BBQ at the house with a monster theme. He was spoiled with attention and gifts. Thanks for all those who came to celebrate our little guy's first birthday, it was GREAT! Of course by then it was time to get everyone dressed in their adorable little costumes. This year we decided to go with their nicknames meaning, Savannah was a monkey and Seth was a monster. I loved each of their costumes so much and we had a lot of fun. We got to wear them three times, the ward trunk-or-treat, playgroup, and of course trick-or-treating. Halloween morning we also went to visit the Elgin tree farm. It was a fun day spent looking at animals, hayrides, swings, having rubber duck races, and of course pumpkins. I also introduced the kids to those big round suckers. They loved it. <br />

She came home the second week singing. Her favorite one is "Ring Around the Rosie." I heard her the next day mumbling a few words and then saying something really loud at the end. It was really cute, so I started actually listening and realized that she was singing Ashes, Ashes...DOWN!. SO here is her debut, she loves to do the actions too.<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dw42uKqQW2w5oqTpylB6lx9YIboEn73dYCJ3aZMC9WlVMCMWCB4n9JVLCr0LUXDlxzSnUwQxGjJABcuM_X57A' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br />We also started singing "If you are happy and you know it," My favorite thing is that she does this squishy face thing when we get to "your face will surely show it." So now that she is getting to the talking stage we are having a ton of fun with songs.<br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxNIAqTb4VnAKw9Ca6dKDgQ0ggQlwfYHOyJHiYYKzoyXIic-Y1fcErFRhmY0elROAGAA36P8tnspG6yVOkxsA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>starstruck_texanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17644149616184302719noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7445113755549367732.post-61028366510893397712009-05-15T19:11:00.003-05:002009-05-15T19:18:02.594-05:00Really Cute...and it's a giveaway!So I was doing my daily round o' the blogs world, and came across this <a href="http://stoehrs.blogspot.com/2009/05/show-giveaway.html">really great giveaway</a>.

We celebrated Sunday with a few friends, and cupcakes. She went to nursery for the first time by herself and did great, she has never been a clingy girl. She is starting to really talk with her words along with her signs. She can sign, more, thank you, please, and cup. She says "more," "baby," "daddy," "mommy," "shoes," and "sit." She can show you where these are, her hair, her feet, her nose, her mouth, her hands, her tummy, and her tongue.<br />She climbs on EVERYTHING...hence why I call her monkey. She is becoming a big girl very quickly. She still loves to eat but is becoming a bit picky which for most of you is a big surprise. I tried to get a few pics the other day but she was pretty squirmy, so I didn't get many great ones.</span><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"> Here are a few of my faves though.</span><br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPABSKP9ld-ubfPMPL5gh-2OeoqGbq9eImaknxHRiV60oqKPcIoD55x7flkgt9o5GdbK4RSEiK-YxR4_23djm19u24np4q43cC1ENu2G2CKL1XZqEjGNtyA2kqD_MuzA1Bp51oVPijP4L/s1600-h/IMG_1499.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPABSKP9ld-ubfPMPL5gh-2OeoqGbq9eImaknxHRiV60oqKPcIoD55x7flkgt9o5GdbK4RSEiK-YxR4_23djm19u24np4q43cC1ENu2G2CKL1XZqEjGNtyA2kqD_MuzA1Bp51oVPijP4L/s320/IMG_1499.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327221027696305298" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipZ5WZs648X1mTih4_KcSWaoDPl-USKm92IfjlRP9cB6nptePFqeADOJCFZWTBWxiORWO-kFgm6McyPIDySEHHMVQIMSMdnCjlZQGM1LxFh8E9q9eBx4y3t9Wtbon1WQ-aNjvLhfyMPCBS/s1600-h/IMG_1518.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipZ5WZs648X1mTih4_KcSWaoDPl-USKm92IfjlRP9cB6nptePFqeADOJCFZWTBWxiORWO-kFgm6McyPIDySEHHMVQIMSMdnCjlZQGM1LxFh8E9q9eBx4y3t9Wtbon1WQ-aNjvLhfyMPCBS/s320/IMG_1518.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327221017312400994" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwwrOzC2vU2cbBwo57MWnWtESNkanI3coSFM-dbRSzHDPWHib0ZOhhd7uCT5hfnsvRtQp0Qq5fp00BuxPX56OInzUNN9VLJSLZLPbVvi8W1JaEWKGJ7ul8rq91xOiftq9cXlNVeop2fMRc/s1600-h/IMG_1543.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwwrOzC2vU2cbBwo57MWnWtESNkanI3coSFM-dbRSzHDPWHib0ZOhhd7uCT5hfnsvRtQp0Qq5fp00BuxPX56OInzUNN9VLJSLZLPbVvi8W1JaEWKGJ7ul8rq91xOiftq9cXlNVeop2fMRc/s320/IMG_1543.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327221020773541074" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLV6fOB_JDqIRLVyysnbQAisb4CnbI4E3yi9kQeU-tjKcpSqneAwisotaMFEqjLc_RiEf-KCgl9W6aehWTAJlOz1NAswiUqUI1wjPrp1l0NNO4aobBek81XfD2wDs3Bgey4Baua8zvqoXM/s1600-h/IMG_1551.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLV6fOB_JDqIRLVyysnbQAisb4CnbI4E3yi9kQeU-tjKcpSqneAwisotaMFEqjLc_RiEf-KCgl9W6aehWTAJlOz1NAswiUqUI1wjPrp1l0NNO4aobBek81XfD2wDs3Bgey4Baua8zvqoXM/s320/IMG_1551.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327221015754314914" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheQ3LdKm7JMxUoPKDbzqaqcGpv91okApaG4wthve3SCqRCtmO6e-hAZzilqWhjBrv8Pc1Twpcdin5ecRAMIfELcEFUksew9rODgMC_qy5Gs5tLcCv-bQypLquswfCTTDI8rARCuT9Jv9lY/s1600-h/IMG_1562.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheQ3LdKm7JMxUoPKDbzqaqcGpv91okApaG4wthve3SCqRCtmO6e-hAZzilqWhjBrv8Pc1Twpcdin5ecRAMIfELcEFUksew9rODgMC_qy5Gs5tLcCv-bQypLquswfCTTDI8rARCuT9Jv9lY/s320/IMG_1562.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327221007887324034" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br /></div>starstruck_texanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17644149616184302719noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7445113755549367732.post-77469098033528290212009-04-15T01:45:00.004-05:002009-04-15T01:57:02.240-05:00I love Photoshop!<div style="text-align: center;">So I am so in love with Photoshop right now.

We went to the doctors the other day, he said that he is looking great. He weighs 13 pounds 10 ounces, he is 25 inches long, and his head is 40 cm. He is so funny, he squeals and talks all day...well at least when he's awake. he is starting to try and roll over, although he doesn't get much practice time because his sister thinks that sitting on him is a good thing. He LOVES to sit up. If you try and lay him down he will do constant crunches trying to sit himself up. He is eating well, he takes his bottle and we have just started him on rice cereal and baby food. He likes bananas although the first bite is always accompanied by a funny face. He had sweet potatoes for dinner tonight and had no problem wolfing them down. Here's some pics we took of him while Savannah was playing at the park.</span><br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8JUk4Czb9TH40MNZR8OLMBQwft_ZGlcm05mL4Sa3AlhoJi_I-hxxqB0RSuBHuIVX_PekLRPWGeBVbBa4-RLkmwfeycabfXLJPVYh_zicsf9oh2-JReQRny4zzwPAXvd4FFV7XoA3F2sQS/s1600-h/IMG_1415.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8JUk4Czb9TH40MNZR8OLMBQwft_ZGlcm05mL4Sa3AlhoJi_I-hxxqB0RSuBHuIVX_PekLRPWGeBVbBa4-RLkmwfeycabfXLJPVYh_zicsf9oh2-JReQRny4zzwPAXvd4FFV7XoA3F2sQS/s320/IMG_1415.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311836307650977218" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnMl3dwt1KQ5F5xUhIchUfvzlzq9TUG9CvpEBSCeN7_ZlqjLaPFEbHNofSu0Fe8qwnlUQm5LctnP90m31_KotFiGVng5eTHnB0RLczovEPgjm-KfurS1_MqfJuNtMKrr9WlDANsDqibYSz/s1600-h/IMG_1416.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnMl3dwt1KQ5F5xUhIchUfvzlzq9TUG9CvpEBSCeN7_ZlqjLaPFEbHNofSu0Fe8qwnlUQm5LctnP90m31_KotFiGVng5eTHnB0RLczovEPgjm-KfurS1_MqfJuNtMKrr9WlDANsDqibYSz/s320/IMG_1416.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311836298922697746" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY217Yh-wsk2L34ntK-UWATkDOCyjkrpFb8OJHEoxbnaJ3elSm4CZf-pv4I2aXBhLJDDp_RAhLZczlTm3yVl6FTNo-7nCIiSopY_2Fm85PolNrYCcRQ2ubg9YEIJodEKXDz9oXPyGHh5AQ/s1600-h/IMG_1417.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY217Yh-wsk2L34ntK-UWATkDOCyjkrpFb8OJHEoxbnaJ3elSm4CZf-pv4I2aXBhLJDDp_RAhLZczlTm3yVl6FTNo-7nCIiSopY_2Fm85PolNrYCcRQ2ubg9YEIJodEKXDz9oXPyGHh5AQ/s320/IMG_1417.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311836295784082386" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivVBmq6KCPn-uWQPZ7BJA9c8jfVAa1w1e9X0G_oou1pg_XjCAsAJ3w5AlOT0rHnqqsCNd1RxRNxHO1sTQAJSoopp81aICp41ygxtQ1MsOd0gzeSXlX3HNgST62YrX8ijEJjYm80a5oRj9Z/s1600-h/IMG_1418.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivVBmq6KCPn-uWQPZ7BJA9c8jfVAa1w1e9X0G_oou1pg_XjCAsAJ3w5AlOT0rHnqqsCNd1RxRNxHO1sTQAJSoopp81aICp41ygxtQ1MsOd0gzeSXlX3HNgST62YrX8ijEJjYm80a5oRj9Z/s320/IMG_1418.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311836291521544242" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgZpA_MM4tAuAnBGijZziABIeNITB02yCnJxiLpx88x9lBqH5dc_hTfh5tufsvz-86moMMhgBfB7reU97FA8vh-gKYirSiaMKTHyWrmYKQma4b57K88AuPQ2Cir-e5yZCriOephsLzmY5q/s1600-h/IMG_1419.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgZpA_MM4tAuAnBGijZziABIeNITB02yCnJxiLpx88x9lBqH5dc_hTfh5tufsvz-86moMMhgBfB7reU97FA8vh-gKYirSiaMKTHyWrmYKQma4b57K88AuPQ2Cir-e5yZCriOephsLzmY5q/s320/IMG_1419.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311836286254042770" border="0" /></a>starstruck_texanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17644149616184302719noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7445113755549367732.post-31862763336717621202009-03-11T02:30:00.005-05:002009-03-11T02:49:23.161-05:00Going to the Park<div style="text-align: center;">Today my little girl found the joy in slides. I have taken her to the park here in our neighborhood several times and she has gone down the slide, but ONLY if I helped her. Today she did it on her own and actually enjoyed it. She would climb up the stairs and slide down, over and over. It was fun to watch. She's so funny when she is up on the playscapes though. She kinda just scoots her feet, I guess she is afraid of falling or something....I don't know.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dw6_bL17DE6DPVEKVW_9Yh6uYYqm_MruMWBJQh7HOss4feBuKBonT_xzXJr8zlyuANxkrRUwFOuUVhy2NVTCw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirbhJu4tf__jWDb-F5hfJDFVXVfHa6lYmqj4LtAzqsYLytkEWfCyL2gSVqbrKyn4_k5m5-3hpIuZx4pZ9sKpYXDi76VEtvMJFRNAta6RQlYJQtJ0-KDyNQV7r-jzsPTPuRxvsmaJXaKWqL/s1600-h/IMG_1414.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Now for the ever present phrase....."if only we had the money." Maybe my mom will buy 3/4 of it, and Orson and I will buy the rest. Anyone else want in on the deal.

Nice and cool, beautiful blue skies, minimal bugs biting me. The kids and I have been spending a good amount of time outside enjoying the great blessing.

Savannah just loves playing in it.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdTq7VNiBRYXslMOqPwE4sRLdMv2y5LkvRlzAR6YMDr8EPtcgB3ED76pa7tKLshTu3UUadbS1_H7GykpHGwqYQ4JhLojFD9u1BBC8tr3Fz4eLQ1SpOfs3Wv2GUoC6vXDf8zMxkpXNB-Nny/s1600-h/IMG_2516.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdTq7VNiBRYXslMOqPwE4sRLdMv2y5LkvRlzAR6YMDr8EPtcgB3ED76pa7tKLshTu3UUadbS1_H7GykpHGwqYQ4JhLojFD9u1BBC8tr3Fz4eLQ1SpOfs3Wv2GUoC6vXDf8zMxkpXNB-Nny/s320/IMG_2516.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306998252543085522" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-5oFaofewFzeqxVT_SoagMC_ss4nms_2BJvWj0Lb_lZUTsEwJZgB413ewy0KW0XBDr80n0ZyEDPUL3vUcRZDdJjXc7Y8TctVEXlSUSOObamTeV5SirNm6uRyaotcccSG0QbTdQf1xeEeq/s1600-h/IMG_2519.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-5oFaofewFzeqxVT_SoagMC_ss4nms_2BJvWj0Lb_lZUTsEwJZgB413ewy0KW0XBDr80n0ZyEDPUL3vUcRZDdJjXc7Y8TctVEXlSUSOObamTeV5SirNm6uRyaotcccSG0QbTdQf1xeEeq/s320/IMG_2519.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306998248428461010" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimGw3ltgZ62T3rwiocsskP6s9xq62lUmFF_Y5tdn2ApBYAq8OLZ8mC8pEhPrCJoxY8LSJGGqiFq8VQExVpMnWEC26KT9xt78z0HBfxmHsVgwnztmSqf0I1ciIXJKBFywJ0ULCfV9hbQU5q/s1600-h/IMG_2517.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimGw3ltgZ62T3rwiocsskP6s9xq62lUmFF_Y5tdn2ApBYAq8OLZ8mC8pEhPrCJoxY8LSJGGqiFq8VQExVpMnWEC26KT9xt78z0HBfxmHsVgwnztmSqf0I1ciIXJKBFywJ0ULCfV9hbQU5q/s320/IMG_2517.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306998245181851298" border="0" /></a><br />My ABSOLUTE favorite place to be on a spring day...my HAMMOCK!

She climbs everything, especially our kitchen chairs, to get whatever happens to be on the table. We had just had a baby shower at the house, and Savannah thought she would help clean up the rest of the cake.

I wrecked yet another car. It happened On Feb. 17th, I was driving Orson's car, and it was raining. I was trying to slow down to take a turn, when my anti-lock brakes kicked in leaving me with no traction. I couldn't slow down, and I had a decision to make...hit the median across the way or try to take the turn? I decided to try to take the turn, and hope for the best. Well I guess my prayers were answered, in an unusual way I'd say. As I took the corner my back end slipped out from behind me and fishtailed. I tried to counter steer, but it didn't work. I ended up spinning, my front hit the guardrail, and then was followed by my back end. I ended up just about in the median facing oncoming traffic. YEAH! Anyway, yes, I did have both of the kids with me, and yes, we are all okay.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWt1DFMjAjWkrp8x98EqK0F6IGJEp6OW1YLVaLWlVbM-RBN7VKnKSdh36d_Yn9cs0sEaKaOLMdkxs4dUWJN22KPiKlN8H3qJ8iOzutideqEDHibT4_BXp4XBooTKwek83u83DSVz3Y5eBc/s1600-h/IMG_1210.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWt1DFMjAjWkrp8x98EqK0F6IGJEp6OW1YLVaLWlVbM-RBN7VKnKSdh36d_Yn9cs0sEaKaOLMdkxs4dUWJN22KPiKlN8H3qJ8iOzutideqEDHibT4_BXp4XBooTKwek83u83DSVz3Y5eBc/s320/IMG_1210.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306991823466329138" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFYgEOP02QOWBiCmVbLHP9B0R0gbDj-13Imx3kRbV2y5Bv0UryLMvtH1W1zW2wS1GhzIZeCSbSui9HtxoaAmtEsdc23E7aJArEMuVxbQzl7nk_zuuhnTDegXD8TptxJ3ci3sbhzVQZwzig/s1600-h/IMG_1212.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFYgEOP02QOWBiCmVbLHP9B0R0gbDj-13Imx3kRbV2y5Bv0UryLMvtH1W1zW2wS1GhzIZeCSbSui9HtxoaAmtEsdc23E7aJArEMuVxbQzl7nk_zuuhnTDegXD8TptxJ3ci3sbhzVQZwzig/s320/IMG_1212.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306991827114561170" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8IWby2VWzlrIu3kUXTPdY3VNZR0IRPkukGeo3zMBYmHASj8DIdnI5dsMKpiMDKvicBuBNk14UCoVgYmhjtYVh8r0C7Bt5BJymG9OVa06XTJyJ8XhIK6UhBafBjYPQh0nUu-8bBwqhP9zw/s1600-h/IMG_1216.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8IWby2VWzlrIu3kUXTPdY3VNZR0IRPkukGeo3zMBYmHASj8DIdnI5dsMKpiMDKvicBuBNk14UCoVgYmhjtYVh8r0C7Bt5BJymG9OVa06XTJyJ8XhIK6UhBafBjYPQh0nUu-8bBwqhP9zw/s320/IMG_1216.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306991828388404178" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqM33rSsZKtYgnmrB5LZk1N9irtxOhIzhuH21l0XPtruliviGnmZGmrXStGvVNotprHpwEldEhXPRUDAqy2Z-FgImKzfq51ZsRICuT-MJU2hKuJmiUeCxwlhn7AweaXuIW6grcMs-P5jSs/s1600-h/IMG_1217.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqM33rSsZKtYgnmrB5LZk1N9irtxOhIzhuH21l0XPtruliviGnmZGmrXStGvVNotprHpwEldEhXPRUDAqy2Z-FgImKzfq51ZsRICuT-MJU2hKuJmiUeCxwlhn7AweaXuIW6grcMs-P5jSs/s320/IMG_1217.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306991831580655458" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi68OJD-MrapItF3ha3IY2dBXtC7haVVvBVD1b0Eh4zzbnt6Y0_GqDJSi3Ms-756migGvyYKg9WUXYRX82I6NABt7jhDzWM_pknncF5dvGFS3SQfJ4pddS2-tUQsUKOX8Dap5Qy6Z4PiePz/s1600-h/IMG_1218.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi68OJD-MrapItF3ha3IY2dBXtC7haVVvBVD1b0Eh4zzbnt6Y0_GqDJSi3Ms-756migGvyYKg9WUXYRX82I6NABt7jhDzWM_pknncF5dvGFS3SQfJ4pddS2-tUQsUKOX8Dap5Qy6Z4PiePz/s320/IMG_1218.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306991834356128530" border="0" /></a><br />At first glance it was a minor accident. Unfortunately I hit the rail just right to bend the frame. And, because it was an older vehicle, the damage ended up being more than the value of the car. So we are now looking to replace not one, but two vehicles. Needless, to say my brain is swirling with options, truly I feel like I have looked at every vehicle listing in the region. So wish us luck on finding a vehicle that fits our needs and our major lack of budget.<br /></div>starstruck_texanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17644149616184302719noreply@blogger.com0
