IT'S BEEN AWHILE

ya it's been kinda crazy around here. i'm sure you can all relate! so let me give you a quick run down.

1.these lovely pictures are of a friend we had come visit us the other day. and let me tell you-I HATE SNAKES!!! thank goodness i wasn't the one who found it. my mom and sister did. of course i called craig right away. i was not going to deal with this by myself! he's talking to one of the guys at work that has a snake. he was explaining to him what it looked like. ya well to me it looked like a snake, so get it out! i snapped a few pics and then quickly went inside. he called me from outside letting me know he needed some help. ya right, so i sent my sister out. they were finally able to get it inside a container for craig to take to his buddy at work. craig mentioned that they had it held out and it was over 4 ft. long! YIKES!!!

2.kameron has been playing spring football all this week! it will be lots of football from now until the end of the season in the fall!

3.kelsey is feeling a lot better! she's been having problems with an allergic reaction and had some testing done. she starts allergy shots sometime in june!

4.aliya has kept me on my toes! she has recently insisted that she will no longer use a glue stick, "no way!" she is loving the elmers glue in a bottle! and her favorite thing to say to get my attention is, "mom eyes up here" ya i think she's had a bit too much of school!

5.i've been cutting wood like crazy! had some special orders to fill for devine memories customers. then i'm trying to get stocked up to get them ready for sale to "YOU" so excited about this! i have a ton of ideas i can't wait to get done. hopefully i'll have a few things up for you very soon.

6.since convention i think i lost my thing called creativity! ya know that dang creative block??? have you ever been through that? i'm sure you have. this one just seems to be lasting a lot longer then normal. hmmmm. any suggestions???

7. my sister is in town with her 2 cute little boys! i've seen them a few times (one of them being the day of the snake!) we've got a few more get togethers planned! i so wish they would move back here! i miss her when she's gone!

8.been in a spring cleaning mood lately! well actually it's called get rid of everything mood! once in awhile i go through these moods where i just get rid of almost everything. it's really good because i feel so good when it's done yet then i end up getting rid of something i needed.

well many other things going on with the school year coming to a quick end! i can't believe how fast this school year has gone by! this summer is going to be a fun and busy one! i'm sure in a few months i'll be looking forward to school again! i need to remember to enjoy these times because b4 long they will be gone and they won't be back!
