Hello All! Yes! The Dayton Relays was rained out! The most anticipated track meet of the year and we had barely started finals when the rain delay was called! For me it was kinda bitter/sweet. Those that know me, know that being out in the rain is not my thing!... Continue reading

Hello All!!! This was one of the longest track meets ever! We were late and therefore missed most of the field events. The events were ran very slow, with seemingly ten minutes in between events. We ended up having to leave early because we just couldn't take it anymore! However,... Continue reading

Trying to continue with the 10 Things Challenge with Shimelle Laine...it was so fun last month that I thought I'd try it again this month. I love to show pictures on this blog, but I don't want not having the "perfect" pic to discourage me from participating this month so forgive me. I decided this month I will share 10 Confessions about myself...whew...here we go... 1. I LOVE HARD 2. I have a bit of ROAD RAGE 3. I absolutely LOVE chocolate! 4. Sometimes...when I drink PEPSI...I burp out loud (on purpose)! 5. I'm flirty...;-) 6. I have this need... Continue reading

This is my first time participating in Shimelle Laine's "10 Things" challenge. I guess it's a challenge, maybe, I'm not sure, but anywhoo...I'm giving it a try! The idea is to share 10 things on the 10th of the month...anything you want, it doesn't matter, just has to be 10!! I was having difficulty trying to decide, but I thought since I'm an educator and school starts next week I'll share 10 Things I'll miss about SUMMER!! Here we go...in no particular order... 1. The pool. Although I'm not a swimmer, my boys absolutely LoVe the water!! I'm going to... Continue reading

to scrapbook!! I thought that I would be scrapbooking all summer long. That hasn't been the case though. The summer didn't start off too well as our family had to deal with the pain of losing Lemerial. She had been fighting brain cancer for some time and God stopped her suffering by calling her home to be with him. I'm not truly ready to blog about the whole experience just yet...another day. However, it has shown me that we MUST continue to perserve the memories of our families. It's so important that we tell our stories, no matter how small... Continue reading

Hey there!! It's been a while since my last post. I've had a lot going on in my life, but finally here I am. I am participating in the Summer Card Camp with Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner. I thought this might help me get in the groove. Unfortunately, this is the end of week 3 and I'm just now posting a card!! Sad I know! I kinda added a color to the combo because I didn't really see any other way to color those leaves and I really wanted to use this Penny Johnson stamp! Hope you like it!!... Continue reading

The Lady Wolves didn't let the guys keep all the spotlight! They came home as STATE CHAMPS in the 4x100 Relay. We weren't even a favorite or pick to win this event, but the ladies pulled through! I couldn't have been more proud of their performance! There are only running... Continue reading

Happy Mother's Day to my Mama...Ruthie!! Seriously, my Mom is the best mom a girl could have! She is truly RIDE OR DIE!!! No matter what happens she's always had our backs and supported us; even when we made no-so-smart decisions. I'm so very thankful and truly honored to call this woman Mom! She's my #1 cheerleader, my BFF, like I said, my ride or die chic!! Thank you Mama for all you do and all you are. I am a better person because of you! …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. On another note…. This is definitely a Mother's Day to remember!! My baby... Continue reading

This was a two-day track meet that turned out to be some of the best days we've had (weather related) to run in this season. A little rain here and there, but no where near the low and rainy temperatures we've had previously. For that we're thankful! The kids have... Continue reading

Wow, I haven't blogged in a while over here since I've been so busy with the track blog. So I thought, what a better time to start up again than to share a project; my first project of the month! YAYYY!! I'm so excited about National Scrapbooking Day this weekend! Hopefully, I will have time to create something awesome…or maybe just catch up on Project Life; which I've yet to share. Soon.
