MATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thursday, August 14, 2008

I was just putting pictures from my camera to the computer and noticed 100 pictures of things like the fish tank and the computer again. I thought that I had just never erased the pictures from last time Matt took my camera and took a bunch of pictures (see old post). But then I saw these and realized, No these are all new....


Kate's 6

Monday, August 11, 2008

Kate turned 6 last week. We had a few friends over for a pool party and then Grandma and Grandpa took us to Red Robin for dinner. I can't believe how old she is getting. Her favorite thing to do is read and she is getting so good at it. She got a bunch of books for her birthday and is really enjoying reading them. Another one of her favorite presents was an American Girl Doll from my friends daughter Kim. She saw a catalog for them a while back and has been asking for one. I have heard of them before, but know very little about them. When Kate showed me the doll she wanted and that it cost over $100 I thought "yeah right she's never getting that", especially since she never plays with dolls. Kim gave Kate her old "Kit" doll which is in perfect condition and all the accessories that go with her. Brandon took Kate to see the movie and she was excited to take the doll with her. I have been surprised at how often she plays with the doll and how much she loves it. Thanks Kim! Kate is a very silly girl and loves to make people laugh, especially her daddy. She loves school and can't wait to go back in September. She also has turned into a great swimmer. I was worried since both kids were afraid of the water at first, but now they both swim across the pool with no floaties.

My latest quilt

Saturday, August 9, 2008

My family room colors are brown and blue and when I saw these fabrics I was with my friend Chanel. She pretty much forced my to buy them, but I am glad she did. Here is my finished quilt that lays over the arm of my couch. Oh, and check out my curtains. My mom and I just finished them.

Bite Me...

Saturday, August 2, 2008

Last Friday night I went to a Breaking Dawn party for the last book in the Twilight series. For those of you that don't know what Twilight is, it is a series of books about a vampire love story, seriously just go get it. The reason it has taken me so long to post about it is because I preordered my book so I wouldn't have to go to Barnes and Noble and fight the vampire crazy crowd, mine arrived on Monday and I just finished last night, 48 hours for 750 pages. Yes it's that good! The girl who throw the party went above and beyond and it was a lot of fun. She had themed food and trivia games. My friend Debbie and I made shirts, they say Bite Me, Edward only please. And there was an appearance by Bella and Edward. Anyone else finished it yet? What did you think? I'm glad that we finally have closer, but I have to admit that every time I finished one of the books I am wanting more. Now I'll just have to wait for the movie in December.
