You Are Snow White!
Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Pure and trusting. You are a gentle soul who can get along with just about anyone. Everyone you meet instantly falls in love with you. How can they resist? You have a pure, lovable nature that's irresistable. Just don't trust everyone who comes across your path.

A VERY busy week!!

Larry and I have been talking about re-doing our upstairs for many months now, but last Tuesday night we starting tearing down the room. Abbey and I painted the master bedroom on Wednesday, and on Saturday Larry laid the hard wood floor. I spent most of memorial day dapping and painting the base boards. They look so beautiful! On Monday I also helped Katie prepare for her last two days of Kindergarten. She made a cute little video of this year for her lttle ones and also an 11 x 14 matted picture for them. On the top of the matte, in vinyl, it reads "Everything I need to know I learned in Kindergarten" She put a picture of them that she had taken in one side, and on the other side she put a picture that they had drawn. On the bottom she put a quote from them of something they had learned this year. It was adorable. I had the pleasure of volunteering in her class this year, she had such cute kids this year, I'm sure she will miss them.

The Googley Eyes are back!




When I had previously posted my "googly eyed"photos, there were some who had not been included ,so above are three more pictures....This is not an obsession. It's just a phase....I'm sure it will pass (just as soon as someone in my housetakes the glasses away from me).

Jenny & Me



On Tuesday, my sister Jenny flew to the valley of the sun to visit me. I just want to say that we really had a good time, and tons of good laughs. It is nice to have someone besides Larry and my kids laugh at my humor. The weather was beautiful, and today she even got to witness a little monsoon. Jenny I want you to know that I had a blast!! Thanks for the visit, and make your next one soon. I love you.

I've been tagged!!!

I have been tagged by my favorite niece Heather. And because I love you (Heather) I am going to answer your tag! I will put six things down even though the list is much longer!! Here are the rules...

1. Link the person who tagged you.

2.Post these rules

3.Tell about six unspectacular quirks about yourself

4.Tag six fellow bloggers by link

My unspectacular quirks are...

1. I go to bed at 10:00 p.m. This is something that I am firm about. Do not call me after 10:00 p.m. because I will be tucked in my bed, therefore I will not answer my phone. If you do call me after 10:00....you'd better have a darn good reason!! My kids think this is the most hilarious thing in the world!

2. I am a freak about my arms, they are some what of a sore spot with me. When I buy tops, the sleeves have to hit me at my elbow, nothing higher. I do not care if it is 100+ degrees...as long as my upper arms are not exposed!!

3. I am very picky about the way my house looks. I am the only one who can clean it, nobody knows how I like it, I have my way of doing things and it is the right way. So if you feel like being kind and offering to help me with my household chores, thanks, but no thanks!

4.I am a perfume lover. I must have 15 or more bottles of perfume sitting in my bathroom. I have had to throw perfume away, because it spoiled before it was used up.

5. I like to eat my french fries before I eat my burger, same if I have a sandwich and potato chips, the chips get eaten first, don't ask me why I do it, I think it is a sickness. I feel exposed right now, because I have never admitted it was a sickness. What can I say?

6. I have been known to gulp down a diet coke or two before 9:00 am. Sometimes I just need a little kick to get me going. Yes,it is a bad habit, but I don't know if I can stop doing it....plus I love diet coke.

So there you have it...all of my quirks. I am going to tag. Jenny, Abbey, Brandy,Marsha, Paula, and Jordan. Happy Tagging!!!

A Weedy Yard????



Okay, now I have never been one to boast or brag about my yard, and rightfully so. But yesterday in the mail, Larry and I recieved a notice from the Superstition Springs CMA Homeownwer's Association that said we are in violation of code 4-3 (h), which reads "Each owner of a lot or parcel shall keep all shrubs, trees, hedges grass and plantings of every kind located on (i)his lot or parcel (including set back area)...neatly trimmed and shall keep such areas properly cultivated and free of trash. weeds and other unsightly material..." We were instructed to remove the weeds growing in the "gravel areas." Above are the before and after pictures of my yard....don't laugh, I am definately not a member of the "green grass" club. I do however weed, when weeding is neccesary. You be the judge!!!

GOOGLY EYES!!





Ok bear with me here, I can explain...most of my brothers and sisters have adorable pictures of their grandchildren to post on their blogs. I on the other hand have no grandchildren. I do have four grown daughters, but they are stingy when it comes to posing for the camera. Yesterday, I got Katie, Kelsi, Little larry and big Larry to smile for me while wearing ridiculous looking glasses! I have to say that I am seriously concerned about how much entertainment these little specks provided me, so I took them to work to see if I am seriously warped or if anyone there thought they were as funny as I found them. My co-workers were just as amused as I was, maybe even more so. To those of you who were nice enough to pose for the picture, I thank you. I also apologize if you don't see the pictures of me wearing the googly eyes. I know I promised I would post them....they just weren't as funny as yours!!!
