Day 50

Saturday, February 19, 2011

Today, I picked up Mom and we went to Castle Rock Factory shops looking for new bras for me.  I ended up only getting one, because I REALLY had to have one, but was pretty sure I could get them cheaper online.  I did find a good deal on shoes for the boys (I hope they fit) and some school uniform pants for Riley.  It turned out to be a pretty good day with Mom.  We hit Archiver's on the way home and did their make -n- takes.  I came home to freshly cleaned carpets.  Our carpets are the wrong color for a house full of boys, but because we aren't ready to replace the carpets, a good cleaning always helps refresh them!  Thanks Babe!

Day 49

Friday, February 18, 2011

This is the way I spent my Friday night.  Ron worked late, so I set up my cropping stuff and grabbed the little DVD player and had a Julia Stiles marathon.  Problem is, I watched 3 movies (that I had seen multiple times before), and only got one layout (almost) done.  That is not a real good track record for getting albums done, but the movies were GREAT!

Day 48

Thursday, February 17, 2011

Today Mom and I went to some thrift stores looking for some good deals.  Mom found a book of how to make Lego things for Riley (complete with parts) and an ice cream ball for Zach.  I wish I would have had a camera when I gave Zach the ice cream ball!  He was so excited!  (He had helped make ice cream at school using one, and really enjoyed it)  Riley and I made this balloon powered car from the how to book.  He thought it was pretty cool!   I think Grandma made a few great purchases today!

Day 47

Wednesday, February 16, 2011

Well this is how I choose to spend my Wednesday evenings right now!  I am hooked on this show.  I just love Raylan Givens (aka Timothy Olyphant)!  It really is a great show if you like the bad ass good 'ol boy home town cop kind of show!

Day 46

Tuesday, February 15, 2011

Today's POTD is of the beautiful earrings and necklace that Ron (and the boys) gave me for Valentines Day.  I was pleasantly surprised!  I didn't expect anything this nice!  Once again, Ron did a great job!

Day 45

Happy Valentines Day!  Today I kept very busy making things at the last minute!  I had a good time doing it, so that is what counts in my book.  Today's photo is of Riley going through his valentines from school.  Actually he was eating all the candy that came with the cards.  I must say that his Valentine that I made was a huge hit!  Everyone LOVED it!

Day 44

Sunday, Februay 13, 2011

Today we went to Zach's area basketball tournament.  They had two games to play for the day and both were done by noon.  The games were both very close, but the team pulled it together and won both games.  They got gold medals and will go onto state competitions from here.  Very cool for them!  They were all so happy! Go BUCKS!
