Guitar Hero Contest

So the Rock out the Rosebud was a great time. Jonah placed 5th in the hard categoy. I was quite pleased. There were 142 entries and 37 in the hard category. He competed with all age groups. I think he did very well. Too bad we didn't know about the costume ability to score extra points. He so could have won a prize pack if he had dressed up. Oh well...

Not much new here...I am running every day. Makes me happy. I am trying to be smart about the process. I am eating healthy. Working out and trying to find joy in the small successes. I am feeling more energetic and stronger every day. It is amazing what not exercising does to you. I am quite happy that my endurance is recovering quite quickly...So, that is all for now...Have a great day!

Happy Saturday!

This is where I will be today...Guitar Hero 111 Contest with Jonah. He has mad guitar skills and usually is 5 staring songs on hard. He actually beat Through the Fire and Flames on Thursday. I am not sure if you all are up on the difficulty level of the song but it is insane. He was so proud he had me take a photo of the TV. So, anyway today we will be rocking out watching Jonah on the stage and big screens. Wish him luck!

I felt a little crafty last night. I made this layout of Ava and I. I love the photo and just wanted to get some of my thoughts down on paper. I will say I think my paper scrapping skills, or lack there of leave a lot to be desired. I am trying to just let the pages go where they will and have fun doing them. Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Happy Saturday!

Wednesday ramblings

I have decided to quit working by 5 every day. I was so tired of the kids eating so late. They probably need something more nutritious than frozen pizza. We all know I am not into cooking but I was feeling pretty bad for them. I will say that have never complained once. It has helped with my stress as well...I actually felt like picking up my camera today. That doesn't happen much these days. I do miss it though. I got a few cute one of the Ava and Chase and our cat Molly...I am planning a trip with my friends Cathy and Michelle. They are going to get to meet Ava. She is very excited. That is all for now. Have a lovely day!

One week

Not much new or exciting...Just work and home and repeat.. Ava is growing sunflowers. She is so excited watching them sprout up. Here are a few pics of them one week apart. See how riviting my blog has become! LOL

A little update...

I have not been blogging so much lately. I am so busy at work and not geting home until 7 so I am pretty tired these days...Last weekend we went to Chicago. Made a trip to Ikea. Got some new things for the boys rooms. Hope to get things assembled this weekend...No trip to Chicago is complete without a visit to American girl! We have been but Ava had not. She took her Bitty Twin "Quinnie" (she named her herself LOL) She had her hair done and had a great time...Not much else exciting going on here...

I'm Back!!

My computer has been under the weather. I was so relieved to learn that all my data was OK. It was hard to be without it for almost 2 weeks. So that is why I have not been blogging.

Since I last posted,we have adopted 2 baby goats. Daisy and Katie. They are so sweet! We are having so much fun with them. They were born on February 10. They have to be bottle fed twice a day. Ava really loves feeding them. My only regret is not getting them sooner. We love them so much! Hope to post again soon!
