THE DANCE---------

okay the only thing missing here is you Krister---------- Notice my "cracker" wedgy before I started??? I did that just for you-------- For those of you who are not getting this whole thing check out Kris' blog. She found some old pics and stuff from GCA and there is a pic of us doing this stupid dance we used to do. So I got the girls to video me doing this tonight---

Can you tell I have been bored today???

Okay Roy and I have had momma and daddy's furniture for a long time now and only today did I notice this. I was putting some of Roy's laundry away and I saw these 3 pieces of masking tape. As I looked closer I could see it was colors of daddy's socks. This used to be his sock drawer and I guess momma got tired of him asking her all the time to go find him a certain color of socks. So she just took it upon herself to take care of that problem. I think she had shoe boxes in the drawer and she would put each color in each shoe box. Was George Murray spoiled or what??? Anyway, I just started laughing when I saw this and wanted to share-----And who wore maroon socks by the way???

MEMORIES!!

Okay Katie was playing with this the other day and I just had to post it. I don't know what grade I was in when I took this but I know it had to have been the greatest lunch box ever!! I know I must have had the thermos to match at some point. But can you believe the masking tape with my name is still on there??? What are the chances??? I can still taste that Carl Budding turkey sandwich, cheetos and snickers bar every day for lunch!!! Oh and the Kool Aid don't forget!! Donna Gail was such a health conscious mom wasn't she???? I am actually afraid to touch it for fear of poisoning from all the rust everywhere-----

KATIE'S FORT

Katie over the weekend had made this little fort in the living room. She had so many clothespins holding it together and God love her it was a mess. So Roy promised her on Monday he would redo her "Fort" and make it better. Well he moved it into our bedroom mainly because we were sick of looking at it as soon as we came in the door. And as most of you know I am so OCD about my house and everything being in order it was about to send me over the edge. So is this I might add but I can at least shut the door and not see it. Anyway, when she got home from school on Monday she saw it and you would have thought it was Christmas morning!! It is the little things in life I suppose. Anyway, thought ya'll might get a kick out it--------

The master bedroom!!!

WEEKEND

Okay this is not very exciting but hey it is a post!! Kaysi had yet another soccer tournament this weekend. Coach moved her up an age and she played on the U14 Gold team. Notice I threw the "Gold" in there. It was not just the U14 team but U14 Gold. Okay now that we have that clear she had 2 games on Saturday and 2 yesterday and the "Gold" team, the one Kaysi was on (did I mention that already???) won their age bracket. It is a good thing she got all her athletic genes from her mother. I mean do you know how many muscles it takes to do a herky jump?? or a toe touch??? Well let me just tell you it is not easy sista!!! So I am sure that is where she got all of her leg muscles from. Anyway, poor Katie B thought she was going to be bored out of her mind but thank goodness they had these bouncy houses and for $5.00 she could play on them all day long--- So that is what she did Saturday and Sunday---They also had this thing called the Gyro machine. You get in it and basically keep turning around upside down and every which way but all the kids loved it. Katie wanted no part of it though. Here are just a few pics--

Here is the gyro machine. Does that name just sound so foul to you????

My little star!!!!

We actually ended up playing the other U14 team in the finals but the "Gold" team won

(the one Kaysi was on, I think I mentioned that already though)

Do you think she has had enough soccer for the weekend??

Katie B in the bounce house!!!

NEW KITTIES!!

Our neighbors cat had kittens sometime early this morning. We knew she was getting close but Clare went out this morning and heard them all!!! I had told the girls we could have one as long as it is an outside cat. I DO NOT DO CATS!!! Never had them growing up and they really kind of freak me out a little. Anyway, they are the cutest ever. I don't know that I have ever seen them this little before. Katie kept talking about their "biblical cord". I finally corrected her after I had laughed hysterically several times.

NEW SHOES!!

Roy brought me home some new running shoes today!!! I was so excited because the shoes I had I have had for probably about 4 years. Not good for running. Anyway, I guess it is the little things in life when you get this age!!!
