Seriously Late


So this morning started off great, the alarm went off and I was not even tempted to hit snooze. Probably because I had only been asleep a couple hours. Anyway, I was freezing so I laid down for what was going to be a few minutes only to be woken up at 8:20. Here is the things. Danny has to be at school at 8:00 and he and John Michael for that were both still sound asleep.

We all finallly got ready, and headed out to take Danny to school. We pulled into the school and Brandon signed Danny it at 9:20, then time to fly to Alabaster where I had a photo session to shoot some product shots. We were supposed to be there around 9:00, we pulled up to their house at 10:04. The good thing is we were able to get back on track, which is always something nice. It was not easy, but I did take the King of product shots with me, so that helped a lot. Thank you my love! The products were ver nice too. I love rosaries, and these were handmade, and so unique! If I cannot find Danny what I want to get him for his first communion, I plan on hiring them to make me some.

We took John Michael to lunch since he was so good, then to Wal-Mart as we are on a hunt for a bat still for him. No luck in Irondale either. Dizzy Dean I need to speak with you! If anyone knows someone who matters there, please send them my way! Thanks! We got Danny from school and headed to Meme's house so we could take some pictures of Brittany. She was going with her best friend to prom. They both looked gorgeous and I hope that they had a great time.

So I am officially exhausted. I am done with editing the pictures from Around The World in 80 Days, so watch the other blog for more information. Now onto weddings, products, sports, and proms.

Before I go to bed I will say a special prayer for you all. Please say a special prayer for my mom's health. While I still do not think she is going into much detail with many people, she is having some health issues and has some more tests on Monday and we are praying for positive results! Thanks everyone. Also, for any of my Facebook Friends...it was a rough start and it DID get better! I knew that it would! Thanks for caring!

Baby Bottle Boomerang


Good evening everyone! Well, I am writing this and am truly dead on my feet! I will be glad when I can get in bed and get a full 8 hours sleep. Heck I would be happy with 5 or 6. Oh well, it will happen one of these days.

So this morning we were running late. By some miracle, possibly a heavy foot on the right while driving we made it on time. In fact I did things this morning I would usually not approve of, but seriously people during rush hour DRIVE or stay home for a little while longer.

John Michael's class practiced for the big wedding coming up. I am really excited! I hope that the rest of these parents come through with the money so that I can get to the grocery store. I will send another letter home Monday if I am still missing some. I will probably just send it to those who have not paid, this way everyone else is not bothered with it, then again it might go to everyone since sometimes the kids realize one person has something that the others do not. We shall see what the teachers think would be best.

Danny had a great day too. They are getting busy and I still have to get these interviews typed up for his teacher...seriously I am not getting the mom of the year award this go round. Danny had a lot of homework and it was horrible trying to get it done. I would have rather gone swimming with a cat or even spent the afternoon with a chalkboard and nails. GRRR...we managed though.

He did bring home the baby bottle for BABY BOTTLE BOOMERANG. This is a fundraiser for Her Choice that the 8th grade is doing for their confirmation. I will be accepting change if anyone wants to help fill it up!

I am working on editing the pictures from Around The World In 80 Days, and I have to tell you I am cracking up while going through them. This was such a great night for Brandon and I both! Watch the other blog for updates and more information!

Well, I am off too bed. I hope that everyone has an amazing night and stays safe through this weather heading our way. Before I go to bed I ask that you all pray for one of my high school coaches son who was in a bad accident over the weekend. Thank you all! Prayer will bond us while here!

Ballpark, Birthday Parties, and Plays

Today was definitely a day and we literally were going non stop, but it was great. Except for the fact thatI forgot my camera for the first half of it. Go figure. I always have it, and today I felt a little lost.

We started this morning with John Michael's practice. It was a great one. We spent most of it making sure the boys knew where to throw the ball when they got it and teaching them to call time. This age is so much fun as they are constantly learning and you can watch them absorb so much. We are also working with finding out where they will play in the fied, and let me assure you that is no easy task.

After John Michael's practice we headed to Elliott's 5th birthday party. It was a Toy Story party and I hope that he liked his Buzz that John Michael picked out for him. His cake was so cute, and the house looked amazing as alway. If only my house could be that clean...EVER! I decided that we were drive by partiers because we could not stay but about 20 minutes. We dropped the present spoke to everyone and then left. It was seriously...hello, how are things, good bye. I hate that we could not stay, but I am glad that we were able to go. I hope that he had a great party.

We left the party to head to the ballpark where Danny's team had a practice game! They did amazing. I was so proud of all of them. We did not keep score, but it was definitely a great game!!

Brandon and I came home changed clothes, while the boys rode with Nana. They were going to get something to eat and then came to the house, but decided just to come on to the house. Nana watched the boys while Brandon and I went to the Birmingham Festival Theatre. Now I have lived here all 30 years of my life and had no idea about this theatre, but I am glad that I do now. He was videoing the play for the cast and I was taking photographs, and it was amazing. Defnitely a great 2 hours. Around the World in 80 days was the play and it was just great! There was nothing lacking. It was a great night!

Now we are home and I have a photosession to edit from earlier in the week, and this one. And we have yet to eat since breakfast. Brandon decided that we would stop at Wal-Mart and pick up a frozen pizza, which is cooking now. I am going to work on pictures, then eat, then work on pictures some more. Hoping to catch a nap.

Well, Before I do close my eyes I will be praying for all of my family and friends. So many times we all complain about how busy we are, and while it is true, we should be thankful for all that we have to do! I have decided to embrace the GO GO GO and Love it while I am Living it! I hope that you all do the same.
