Here comes Carolina-lina

First things first............I've gotta give props to The North Carolina Tarheels for becoming 2009 NCAA champs once again!!!! They played a awesome game beating Michigan 89-72. These guys had a awesome season - and played a wonderful Tournament!!!!! The hubs turned me on to NC - that is where he is from. I've become a huge NC Basketball fan. We love to watch college sports. Needless to say during this tournament time it was VERY exciting around my house. Jerimy loves him some NC basketball!!!! I think Roy Williams is one of his heros :-) Go HEELS!!!!!

We went and sawe Monsters Vs Aliens today - wasn't bad, but wasn't one of the best kiddie movies I've seen,and trust me I've seen a ton. All in all........."OK". We also took the kiddos to McDonalds for lunch - and for time on the playground...they had a blast.

It's actually pretty cool out - in the 50's so we put of going to Universal a day. We are heading out tomorrow to go there........we will be there Wed/Thurs - the kiddos are very excited. I have to admit I am too, I love going.

You are an obession, you are my obession

Hello ladies - it's been a while :-) I have been so busy at home and at work. We've really had a hectic time here at work......with all the rain we have been having - the river that I "work" on is going to hit flood stage, so in my line of work - we have had to take to our EAP - Emergency Action Plan. So it has been exciting around here. (I'm not gonna lie I LOVE it). We also had revival this week - which I had fully intended on blogging about (I still may).

OK.....I have this little obession..........I LOVE, and I say LOVE gossip magazines. I just cannot help myself. OH, and it's not just the magazines, it's the online sites as well. I LOVE reading all the juicy little tid-bits about all the celebs. Though I myself wouldn't want to be one, all the stuff they have to go through (some I feel sorry for) to me, it just wouldn't be worth it.

I love reading about the new styles - who's with who now...who's breaking up, what crazy thing is Brit Brit going to pull next (though she seems sane now) I was loving it when she was doing all her pink wig wearing!!!! Awesome stuff!! I love to see what POSH is going to wear. Does anyone else love reading up on this kind of stuff??

Here are a few of the places I like to visit:

dlisted

This is a fun site to visit - I do check it just about ever day!!

Perez Hilton
This is another fun site - the 'gossip ganster' Yes he makes fun of people - buy hey it's all in fun right?!?!

I love all sorts of magazines...they vary really - which ever one that looks like it has the best 'stuff' in it - I pick it up ;-)

ahhh leave poor Jessica alone - maybe she did gain a few pounds, but it wasn't like she gained 100 or anything......I just think that was a BAD outfit to wear. I actually think a lot of stars are TOO skinny!

Well as you can see I am having a VERY exciting weekend - I have to work.............BUT I am off next week and I cannot wait - VACAY. The kiddos are on Spring Break - and I plan on taking plenty of pictures, and having lots of things to blog about!!!!!

Have a great weekend!

Have I told you laaatteeely that I looove you?

I just have to say I have the most awesome hubby in the world. I was having a not-so-good day today, and was really upset. He called me - told me everything was OK.

He then sends me a text: smile. your platinum. love you

That text made me feel so much better. He is always there for me, he understands me like no one else........and can read me, better than I can read myself :-) Which is very hard. He does always know how to make me smile.

I have to say I feel like I'm the luckiest girl alive. I think I got the whole package.

Thanks to my honey for always always being there, and supporting me - taking care of me, and making me feel so special. I LOVE YOU!

I'm too sexy for my shiiirrrrtttttttt

I was tagged by the sweetness that is The Polka Dotted Owl with this sexy little award :-)

It goes as follows: You must list 5 sexy things about yourself, and then pass it on

1) I'm not always a "girly girl" I like to hang out with the guys (watch sports,play sports, play video games, etc)

2) I'm confident

Five little ducks went out one day.......

Well I've been a slacker - I know this comes as a shock!!! It's just been so hectic in my part of the world (yea like it's not in yours).

Friday - I was off work...Braxton had a field trip, I let him skip it - it was just a kids day thing...and I kept Brylee home from daycare - we took a trip to Hilly to visit my family, and I got my hair did my my most awesomeness of a sister Abbi!!! She always does such a wonderful job on my hair!!! She is the bestest sister EVA!!! We had a good afternoon visiting and letting the kiddos play.

Friday night we really didn't do much - the hubs and I hung with the kiddos.

Saturday I had to work, we had the Wild Azalea Festival at my job/work. It was really nice - they have lots of music, crafts...and yummy food! Can't beat that. I don't mind working these events at all...I love people watching - you get to see so many ummmmmmmm 'different' people. My fav is the Florida Folk Festival - hee hee hee........loves it, I really get to people watch. I get to do the registration, so all Vendors, entertainers and volunteers have to check in with me :-)

Sunday was our typical Sunday, go to church, and have a yummalish lunch with the in-laws. I ended up taking the kiddo's to the Lake (Germs had softball practice) to feed the ducks. We stopped and bought a loaf of bread..........and then the fun began:


McKenna and Braxton feeding the ducks (and seagulls...they attacked). I have to add this is Braxton's MOST Favorite shirt......he loves this shirt.

Brylee wasn't too happy, the ducks would "come" to her

McKenna was worried they were going to attack her head

Brylee really gets into it.

See Brylee here...she is telling the duck what to do "COME here!"

We had a really good time - the kiddos enjoy going to the Lake - Germs usually takes them when I have to work on Sunday - this time was my turn :-) The weather was beautiful!!!

Please be in prayer for Stellan - he is back in the hospital....Mckmamma and her family could use our prayers. Visit her site - My Charming Kids for updates.

my bologna has a first name its O-S-C-A-R

Braxton came up to me either Tuesday or Wednesday evening when I got off work, he says "MOM - I've packed my lunch....I'm taking my lunch to school tomorrow" I said "OK honey" He then proceeds to pull me into the kitchen and pulls out this ratty looking brown bag and tells me again that he has packed himself a lunch for school, that he wants to take his lunch tomorrow, again I said OK.

I went and sat on the couch, not thinking twice about it...no big deal Braxton wanted to take his lunch - I thought maybe Jerimy had gotten him something special from the "grocery store" to take to school. (The grocery store in my kiddos eye's is the little gas station - they have to stop by every day after school for a snack when germs picks them up). So I ask germs if he got him something for school...he told me no - he didn't know what I was talking about.

Braxton comes up to me "MOM you want to see what I have for my lunch?" I say sure - he runs in to the kitchen gets his torn little brown bag and brings it into the living room...this it what we have:

Said...brown bag
Contents......Squeeze Kool-aide, fat-free chocolate pudding, apple sauce, and a fork - which looks like he had all ready been eating soemthing off of it........YES a fork (don't laugh...he eats his ice-cream with a fork from time to time)

He was so proud of this lunch.........He packed it himself. He was grinning from ear to ear. I said that is so good honey :-) Yikes - how was I going to get out of this one? I was just hoping he would forget come morning...what would the teacher think of me for sending this for my child for lunch?

Glad you asked because I have another little story about my wonderful PRE-K son. We have to walk him to class every morning - no sissy can NOT do it. Well at the start of the year, Braxton took his lunch - in his batman lunch box, which matched his batman backpack. I made his lunch every night...drew a heart on his napkin with a "I love you" on it.

WELL...one morning I walk in his class and his teacher informed me that Braxton needed lunch money.....I was like uhhh OK (they feed pre-K breakfast) so I thought well he must have to pay for breakfast. So I asked his teacher "OH they pay for breakfast?" she tells me no, this was for lunch. So I asked her - "well uhhh Braxton isn't eating his lunch?" (Not that I mind him buying that would be much easier - just do a lunch bank) She said lunch? Isn't that his snack?

My son has told his teacher that was his snack he was bringing (not lunch) - so at snack time my son was eating his lunch (while all the other kids got a pack of chips/apple/cookies) then turning around and eating LUNCH LUNCH from the cafeteria!!

The teacher told me that she thought it was a little strange - but Braxton was serious that his mom was packing his snacks. She proceeds to tell me they do provide snacks and they are free. I then tell her......UM that was his lunch - not snack.....that I knew they provided snacks (really lady come on!) We both ended up laughing over it...and I said it's OK - it doesn't surprise me. My son was making out like a bandit!!! Needless to say - I didn't "send" his lunch anymore.

I've been told by his teacher like he likes to tell "whoopers" sometimes...she says to me "I think he would make a good writer, he comes up with all kinds of stuff and he is so serious" I told her yes we know.....Yes folks I am scared of what he tells her - the more you listen to him, the more dramic he becomes.

The most resent story was..........I hit Jerimy over the head and Braxton had to call 911. The teacher said well we thought it was a whooper........I said umm yes - we've not had to call 911 (YET). So yes my son loves to tell stories - and he does look very serious...he'll even make all the faces along with it stretching his eyes - at times I even think he is serious. SIGH......what kind of mom does his teacher think I am........probably the type of mom that packs ratty brown bag lunches with applesauce, a fat-free pudding, along with a fork...........that's the kind :-) At this point, I really don't think too much can shock his teacher. This is the lady that runs out "THANK goodness you're here Braxton, we have 3 lizards in our class....I didn't think I was going to make it" Braxton darts off to class to catch the lizards for his teacher.

What would I do without my lizard catching, bug killing, tall telling story teller....dirty nose - I'm a boy-boy, get out of my way I'm coming through son?

I really don't know what'd I'd do because BOYS will be boys, he keeps my life exciting - and I'm loving every minute of it! He is one of my three angels (even though those halo's are sometimes held by horns).
