Funny Story...

My two nieces, Chloe (6) and Lily (3), found a new toy one day. They took a full bottle of Lysol and sprayed it all over their bodies and sprayed it in the air and tried to catch it on their tongue. (Not the funny part!!) They used half the bottle of Lysol playing this game. Luckily they didn't get sick from it. My brother and sis-n-law sat them down to talk about how bad it was for them to do this. They told them it is very dangerous and it is like doing drugs; you never mess with cleaners because it can kill you. They talked for a long time (trying to scare them a little I think, so they wouldn't do it again, or anything worse like drink it). Well... later that same week Chloe's kindergarten class happened to be talking about drugs. They were going around and talking about how bad drugs are and such... you probably remember the drug free weeks in school. When it was Chloe's turn she stood up and got this very serious look on her face. She said, "Well guys... I have only done drugs ONE time. I thought I was going to die. It IS bad stuff." I am sure the teacher was shocked and didn't know whether to laugh or freak out. A phone call to my sis-n-law came soon after I am sure, but everyone in the family just die laughing at this story. If you know Chloe, she is very serious and I am sure was trying to tell the kids "from experience" don't do drugs!!

ACU Homecoming

I win!!! I am the first to post about homecoming... probably because I didn't have to travel, but I look forward to everyone's posts.

Ok, so I am always surprised that when you get good, old friends together, it's like you see and talk to them everyday. I love my girl friends and roommates from ACU and I wish we did get together more often, but when we are together it is like we go straight back to those college days. We laughed... a lot, joke around, catch up. I just love it!!! And love them!!! I think in less than 24 hours we already had inside jokes and other conversations I will not mention... I will let someone else explain "blog stalking", who peed there pants where from laughing, and what crazy things we did (stealing club signs and "sneaking" out), BUT ANYWAY, I just can't explain how much fun it is to get together with friends.

It is crazy to think it has been 5 years since we graduated and left ACU. It is so strange to see everyone with kids or pregnant. Instead of talking about the cute boy in our Science 101 class, we are talking about how the delivery went, diaper rashes, who is crawling, walking, being potty trained, and when we are going to have the next kid and start all over again. I love how life has changed... and stayed the same. There is still stress, late nights, frustrations, disappointments, and of course excitement, happiness, success, and lots of love. There is just different things that bring about these feelings and situations. We are all in a different stage of life now, not necessarily better (although a husband and kids have to be the best thing in life), just different. Anyway, I am beginning to babble, so it was SO GREAT to see everyone and bring back fun memories from college. I love you all and look forward to the next time we get together and take the walk down memory lane.

NOW for the PICS... (this is only a few, more on myspace if you have it)


GATA breakfast and the girls from my pledge class.

Kylie and Me... I miss her!!!


OK, this picture is so funny. Look at the action in the photo. Not one is looking at the camera. I laughed forever when I actually looked at their faces and what they are doing. SO CUTE!!


The ROOMIES, I love so dearly!!! They are the best!!!

Faith's First Birthday

Here are some fun pictures of Faith's birthday party. Some are from the Abilene Performing Arts Center and some are from our house. It was a really fun and tiring day. She seemed to enjoy all the attention. I guess they all do. She didn't like the cake at first because we haven't given her any sweets until the cake. BUT of course she grew to like it rather quickly. She got a lot of gifts... a lot of little people which she loves... and tons of other stuff. Anyway, just wanted to share the pics. If you have a myspace, then there are a lot more pictures on there.










Born to be a Wildcat




Here are a few pictures of Faith in her first Wildcat outfit. I hope you will be seeing her in one of the upcoming ACU todays. We will see!!! Just wanted to share.

New Season

OK!!! So I hope I wasn't the only one with a schedule this week for the new TV shows. I am interested in what shows everyone is into. My list is Criminal Minds (my favorite!), dancing with the stars, Shark, Cold Case, NCIS, The Bachelor (who's from AUSTIN!), According to Jim (so funny), Numbers, Ugly Betty (Love this one too!), Cane (good newby), Vegas (a new addiction). I know, I know, it looks like I have no life but TV. I am not usually this bad, but the first shows of the season are so good. Let me know what you are addicted to these days!
