The Fiber One muffin mix is so good!! Wesley has no idea these are good for him. I make them with applesauce and egg beaters. They are great and they are only 2 points, (if you do Weight Watchers). </p><p>The other find of the day is the brownie mix. Just follow the directions on the box and yummy in your tummy!!! By the way I top one brownie with Chocolate Cool Whip and what a TREAT!!!! For those of you that are on Weight Watchers its 2 points for the brownie and 1 point for the Chocolate Cool Whip. </p><p>So Delicious!!!!

They all went PARA SAILING!!! I stayed in the boat with my brother, neices, my dad and took a ton of pictures. They all had a great time and next year I will be doing it too. The first picture is my mom. I was so proud of her letting go to wave!! The next picture is Kelly. The girls really had a great time seeing their mom "way up hi over the trees." The next picture is Wesely. He did really great. I was a little scared he wasn't going to do it because he went last. The final picture is of John. He was flying over our boat and I zoomed in as much as I could and got the perfect picture.</div><br /><div>Everyone had a great time either para sailing or following their boat around taking pictures. </div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-18487717607803914862009-04-16T22:53:00.004-04:002009-04-16T22:57:24.973-04:00How I made Newt Gingrich Laugh<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh51MEG9vBgctSh7KbSPqPWSINlRXqlQ6CzX8PFL_9YIY5El_FF1Uq1xKSMV9DLN8BlsamnItaGH9aw3Ni6csJljDb77HgLJKY1SVXJkcvp5nb7nu63WXKhmYGKYbt6j8GzCyhqXM23fw/s1600-h/IMG_0824.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325488565422020338" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh51MEG9vBgctSh7KbSPqPWSINlRXqlQ6CzX8PFL_9YIY5El_FF1Uq1xKSMV9DLN8BlsamnItaGH9aw3Ni6csJljDb77HgLJKY1SVXJkcvp5nb7nu63WXKhmYGKYbt6j8GzCyhqXM23fw/s320/IMG_0824.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div> When we were in DC at Christmas we met someone famous. We were looking at all of the Christmas trees that surround the huge tree that is the national tree. Every state has a Christmas tree that is decorated with items that are specific to that state. For example the Texas tree was decorated with small paper yellow roses inside a clear ornament. </div><div><br /> Anyway, it was very crowded and John saw Newt Gingrich standing next to him. John had Wesley on his left side and he nudged him and pointed to Newt. John and Wesley began talking to him and before long got their picture taken with him. I came over because I couldn’t see who they were talking to because of all the people. This is the conversation that I had with Newt Gingrich and his wife, I even made them both laugh!!!<br />I was telling Newt that I thought he was great and his wife said “do you even know who he is?” I looked at her puzzled and I said “yes, he is Newt Gingrich the former speaker of the house.” He smiled and she said “well you wouldn’t believe the people that think he is Phil Donahue.” I said “Oh my heavens no! He doesn’t have any horns or a pitch fork!!! “ They both laughed genuine laughs and said it was nice to meet me!! </div><div>And that folks is how I made Newt laugh!!! </div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-83324511798126062222009-03-29T16:45:00.008-04:002009-03-29T16:51:39.049-04:00Sunday was a beautiful spring day in NC. We opened our French doors that lead out onto the back deck. We wanted to let the cool spring breeze flow through the house. The neighborhood had lots of sounds going on; someone mowing their yard, kids outside playing in yards, and dogs barking. Emmie loves to go outside but never wants to go alone.

Well at least not where we are. On Sunday evening we almost didn't make it home from Kentucky before the bad weather came rolling in. We were home maybe thirty minutes before the snow began falling and boy oh boy did it fall!! We woke up on Monday morning to the announcement of school closed for the day!! We missed two days of school and the third morning a delayed start, YAHOO!! I have always loved spring and fall in my yard. The beautiful flowers and colorful leaves.

If the babies are <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">asleep</span> on the couch you can say burger, and before you know it they are sliding across the floor to the door that leads to the garage, that has the car that will take them to the burger joint!! The barking begins when we get close to Sonic. They wait patiently with intent faces while the burger cools just a little. They even slobber just a little in anticipation! When they finally do get to eat they are so <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">excited</span> you have to give very small bites because Andy tries to swallow it whole. The best part of the day is when all the burger is gone we get kisses all day long.

The problem with most people is that they don’t make time for the most important meal of the day. Well, I have the most perfect breakfast of champions that is ready in less than TWO minutes!<br /><br />What to do! Spray the inside of a small bowl or coffee mug. Add one egg beaten or ¼ cup egg substitute, one wedge of laughing cow cheese, salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap. Microwave for one minute. Stir and microwave for 30 seconds. Taa-Daa!<br />You can put on a piece of toast or just eat it out of the bowl!!You have a healthy breakfast in less than TWO minutes!!</div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-63102649935991750662009-02-14T23:31:00.010-05:002009-02-14T23:54:15.851-05:00My Valentines<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJPZyN2cVEK_YwPT6LgCDfagsPegWPeVPVcuDPB2XBiloRyn7WniU9YAZObIN8-Z8D1-6E7GGMTrkUWP6UXzjzCw5S_r3m3zImzjjImXNkXEpdv57cANc7bVkHrcy0re-4-tKyaRKvjQ/s1600-h/CIMG1328.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302877505841212754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJPZyN2cVEK_YwPT6LgCDfagsPegWPeVPVcuDPB2XBiloRyn7WniU9YAZObIN8-Z8D1-6E7GGMTrkUWP6UXzjzCw5S_r3m3zImzjjImXNkXEpdv57cANc7bVkHrcy0re-4-tKyaRKvjQ/s320/CIMG1328.JPG" border="0" /></a> <div>On Monday people will ask what did you do on Valentines Day? I will reply that it was the most perfect day to me but probably would have been boring to you. I spent the day with my best friend/husband sharing laughs and smiles. We did absolutely nothing! We did go to the movies only because it was a beautiful sunny day and we wanted to go outside. I know, you went outside just to go to a dark theater on a sunny day?! What did we have for dinner? POPCORN! It was soooo good!! How did our day end? Wesley called to tell us Happy Valentines Day! That is what every mother wants..an unsolicited phone call from her teenage son, just called to say I love you mom!!! </div><div>Thank you my two wonderful men for a great Valentines Day!!!</div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-54390818220826543412009-02-08T16:00:00.007-05:002009-02-08T16:12:38.721-05:00Is it Spring Yet?This weekend in Nc has been just perfect weather wise. The weather has been mid 60's and will continue to that for at least another week. That has gotten me dreaming of my favorite time of year. Last spring we had a mother robin build a nest in a basket of flowers on our deck. It was perfect for me because I got to watch this mother and her babies every morning and evening after work. It gave John and I so much joy to watch this little family. I really hope and pray that God will place another little nest outside my bathroom window again this spring. Here are just a few of the wonders we were able to watch for several days last spring<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH7ucFVQonl_wTHyfBOZeu-x8bh43iUimKoNuCgg4qaEm_QeI5wAOiHS5h5WoO7xllcdN2RTg7J5reM-PunmaiNgcFekK1z0DXicraq0ATkWZ1AievC-19H8W5Om7kqkKQ7zsWaX4rwA/s1600-h/Sept+08+007.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300536439967288658" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH7ucFVQonl_wTHyfBOZeu-x8bh43iUimKoNuCgg4qaEm_QeI5wAOiHS5h5WoO7xllcdN2RTg7J5reM-PunmaiNgcFekK1z0DXicraq0ATkWZ1AievC-19H8W5Om7kqkKQ7zsWaX4rwA/s320/Sept+08+007.JPG" border="0" /></a> Mother bird waiting for her eggs to hatch.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMeLi8YMCF5gNvuEJTOF8PsM6hCkXGWnFeLf-3ow2e7WkBMibMREcV1ApNVpN3fJYwM-MJiOXSJyKshP-EkYIl1Dmupka2_E36DmobUUjtzxa3RIEvBdRbcdw1iAsHxkSOG_4UcOTrqw/s1600-h/Sept+08+012.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300536254377181378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMeLi8YMCF5gNvuEJTOF8PsM6hCkXGWnFeLf-3ow2e7WkBMibMREcV1ApNVpN3fJYwM-MJiOXSJyKshP-EkYIl1Dmupka2_E36DmobUUjtzxa3RIEvBdRbcdw1iAsHxkSOG_4UcOTrqw/s320/Sept+08+012.JPG" border="0" /></a> There is three waiting for four.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaWnSH_KkOa_HVAO_ynHUAm0RoD_35HxhMufChuWHdABDUnKMi8xE5g_CpFrIfwYeSgGpcx_K5cDoQLR3_YKb37JCPgxTxEdickoOppbech0YIpoZ8Zik9AFtdom6kpo8tSQLcY_wGZQ/s1600-h/Sept+08+020.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300536021255458226" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaWnSH_KkOa_HVAO_ynHUAm0RoD_35HxhMufChuWHdABDUnKMi8xE5g_CpFrIfwYeSgGpcx_K5cDoQLR3_YKb37JCPgxTxEdickoOppbech0YIpoZ8Zik9AFtdom6kpo8tSQLcY_wGZQ/s320/Sept+08+020.JPG" border="0" /></a> Where is my mommy!!<br /><br /><br /><div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfQHcqqEoLpvl-bd_eY3-Q8b1xuMtizh36eIWItjCLxDj2zO1W13DMoEkcDE0_MuR3BFB-YcBxWR05noS6WJb3VKAV5y3bMlBUWkHZVuIz5qM9cxJffzz57rJn02exLviEUK_8t287VA/s1600-h/Sept+08+024.JPG"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKFkdb-OQcTsu4sUY0vyHxHFazPPj1YDA6S-nqF0V3HzaFqv9Rt93WzmS-1CKC52KrkSk-PsSTR2Eh43fGD4wAA6i2wkWwGTsfN9loAtobo12XM_6K3yzIIvEUEOXT9WA7-8KoOTnoYw/s1600-h/Sept+08+010.JPG"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdsFONyaKN_qKYvmtUpwIsb1lFN9nM1G1dn9_qVwc_cAYtVIoEda5ZgVR3mzGzpGSYJvVYtzl9V7TtiDOk0ylv6JL1sHTHZGrC5d7Mnw-m2Ov9EgDyI0XSUFofoR5zlvMJNVPZz3twKg/s1600-h/Sept+08+008.JPG"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-4194401793633880362009-01-27T18:31:00.003-05:002009-01-27T18:39:40.411-05:00Dreaming!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNrGZkYNT1OrBzowaZBulRH2aQLb6mfcFlXik3aV935Q6IfwjpMxMuz88JJToO5dVESuTZzvEJYPn3cYctzdgDRzS9Uu9SP32zJLzeC79sujzbDkhEcEMTBZ8NFrg8iiXHWLYOAczPbA/s1600-h/079.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296120936840831122" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNrGZkYNT1OrBzowaZBulRH2aQLb6mfcFlXik3aV935Q6IfwjpMxMuz88JJToO5dVESuTZzvEJYPn3cYctzdgDRzS9Uu9SP32zJLzeC79sujzbDkhEcEMTBZ8NFrg8iiXHWLYOAczPbA/s320/079.JPG" border="0" /></a> While we were in St. Thomas exploring the island on scooter John and I found this secluded beach.

It even has family photos in it that are priceless.</div><div>Then today, Friday we came home and one of John's Christmas presents finally arrived.

We went to Build a Bear and each one of my girls built an animal they could not live without. We shopped some more and rode the carousal, we had a lot of fun!! Each day I spent with them was wonderful and very memorable for all of us.</div><br /><div>Everyday was filled with AWESOME dinners out (thanks dad) and lots of shopping. I had a list of things that I just HAD to get while I was there. Mission accomplished!! We ate way to much food and I probably gained 5 pounds while I was there, but it was all worth it!! My mom celebrated her 60th birthday on Jan. 19th!! My mom doesn't look like she is 60 years old!! I hope I will look as great as she does when I turn 60.</div><br /><div>I have been anxiously waiting to met two very important figures in my circle. The first little guy I was introduced to was Grayson! He is a very dear friends new son. He is such a good baby!! He was all smiles and very alert. I can't wait to watch him grow. He has two wonderful parents that will raise him to be a terrific little man. </div><br /><div>Another very important event was that I met my new fur brother for the first time!! He is just adorable and he shares his cute little name with my fur baby, both of our boys are named Andy. My mom named her new baby Andy because her other baby is Opie and that is the only logical name for the new guy. The picture above is mom, Andy (grey), and Opie (white). </div><br /><div>Well, I had a wonderful visit but its back home to Greensboro for me!! I will miss my family but I will return home soon!!!</div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-190250956951139232009-01-14T19:19:00.005-05:002009-01-14T19:32:10.058-05:00Vacation for Two<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-SX81syqGNfGOKdnwFp0zPPqfYJNTTXAPNZXOcPLp42Lh4W2y8Mo6WKWmwXnyHBCDfBC7YIalQb1qQX6fWdrcCQpkCsAc1Nn-UC6XQFdegYBjJhaRbXwd9pc2Tx45xdYfcYfkIQhZ6w/s1600-h/021.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291311363862325474" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-SX81syqGNfGOKdnwFp0zPPqfYJNTTXAPNZXOcPLp42Lh4W2y8Mo6WKWmwXnyHBCDfBC7YIalQb1qQX6fWdrcCQpkCsAc1Nn-UC6XQFdegYBjJhaRbXwd9pc2Tx45xdYfcYfkIQhZ6w/s320/021.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRHoljMP_uDQdYUmaBHC15AaH2jPMgwITV24sd2ea8JXpzu7Bz6HJNyxlJCxcNQY0bbKZG0rc5U-9ibeo_Gop1Q5nbQxcPCZhr7Of7fflL3mdWNeJod-NDEjtQi415Etq5dn0FU7dzzA/s1600-h/022.JPG"></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiitL9x5ANZiHJOGdPNsgwEPqnTtv_JktlWNVtXNGHbjsndsr4YhH4-vSxjzWikeF9nUnBahL7Ku-VwoGvb4V35qOnIahouknjGzcG6hslm6p-CNixERpmd6aSN5nbvUH3KGxlvQj9iSA/s1600-h/024.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291310822517671458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiitL9x5ANZiHJOGdPNsgwEPqnTtv_JktlWNVtXNGHbjsndsr4YhH4-vSxjzWikeF9nUnBahL7Ku-VwoGvb4V35qOnIahouknjGzcG6hslm6p-CNixERpmd6aSN5nbvUH3KGxlvQj9iSA/s320/024.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div>For the first time in 20 years John and I went on a vacation alone! We have always had Wesley with us and sometimes even other family members or friends. We love to travel and the more people the better. This time was different and we really had a wonderful time. We went on a cruise to Princess Cays, St. Maarten, St. Thomas, and Grand Turk. We ate a lot! Did a lot of exploring the islands on scooters, snorkeling, and just plain relaxing. Here are a few pictures of our trip, I will continue to post more in the near future. </div></div></div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-37549563665903877392008-12-31T21:29:00.002-05:002008-12-31T21:32:42.539-05:00Christmas Girl<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMwAAt53HFdZItroIzcIFSJwE68ksUezSewmlXt9lemRcOgeKIYC-bW3g-tGRUipcT8yC7x99HDUHoXxMpHIst2vZC9i3_qG5IAgGG3sGhMTcLUu2r2xu-lg_LqXC_uCJWTAF_i-z0-g/s1600-h/CIMG1881.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286147589799648130" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMwAAt53HFdZItroIzcIFSJwE68ksUezSewmlXt9lemRcOgeKIYC-bW3g-tGRUipcT8yC7x99HDUHoXxMpHIst2vZC9i3_qG5IAgGG3sGhMTcLUu2r2xu-lg_LqXC_uCJWTAF_i-z0-g/s320/CIMG1881.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>I don't want to forget my beautiful baby girl in her Christmas bows!!<br />Unfortunately Andy will not let anyone take pictures of him.

The lobby of the hotel we stayed in was perfect for pictures. We had some loud neighbors our first night in the hotel so for the rest of our stay we got one of the Executive Suites!! It was so nice!! We had a corner master bedroom with floor to ceiling windows. The view was spectacular! The hotel was just two blocks from the metro and we rode it all over!! We really had a great time.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8izZfV5E9PlBmpKNoCTPcLmyH8FGcB96AsB9OWeDfi297EwA5CZU5Hyt6o_zhZz3MM18ZT4okksiWtOcS_22d6IWrRJZ6BIvpAgBuw_YncPOxWNKleGD728nnCODM7aiu7vHIF2Repg/s1600-h/CIMG1943.JPG"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-85810638283772279022008-12-31T20:43:00.009-05:002008-12-31T23:12:11.880-05:00Christmas Time<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiysFWfNS_r5UdC4h1SgcO1pia-vCLjGlZEjfsxfNZkkZgaruqjFm1psFoxuhDj6iZMuh-68jEgKQ0Eev19BnwAjNp0RSi91hQb2BiopUa6BH5nnk1bTaNRXttNubZgE89x0fFlbUOWag/s1600-h/CIMG1899.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286173086313643938" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiysFWfNS_r5UdC4h1SgcO1pia-vCLjGlZEjfsxfNZkkZgaruqjFm1psFoxuhDj6iZMuh-68jEgKQ0Eev19BnwAjNp0RSi91hQb2BiopUa6BH5nnk1bTaNRXttNubZgE89x0fFlbUOWag/s320/CIMG1899.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8o8hj5qsOZuC0xgcxjs_sIeThi4-2fNCAtJf-5feJISqoC6eYndcAvoyo5OHbKOveyl1oY3enVe-mRfpOgl7f3Ryg26qEIq4Ab4nA-rxDG3R5XHKQw4FNe88oDfTlhwvLilKR3VWS0Q/s1600-h/CIMG1912.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286172795130010866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8o8hj5qsOZuC0xgcxjs_sIeThi4-2fNCAtJf-5feJISqoC6eYndcAvoyo5OHbKOveyl1oY3enVe-mRfpOgl7f3Ryg26qEIq4Ab4nA-rxDG3R5XHKQw4FNe88oDfTlhwvLilKR3VWS0Q/s320/CIMG1912.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXmZFjzbqLAlow9PalTnZBVG4HD0iH2gW4rnUY3TtpIa15yXlThqhcBZoEdSqe5msXqxGR8-ocn_bZQSOeCMeCALesWosUy3Co6gNk7BSmbAmntSLyKTRwxYHGzdXfISfIdT_V4nMpUg/s1600-h/IMG00442.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286138413128170066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXmZFjzbqLAlow9PalTnZBVG4HD0iH2gW4rnUY3TtpIa15yXlThqhcBZoEdSqe5msXqxGR8-ocn_bZQSOeCMeCALesWosUy3Co6gNk7BSmbAmntSLyKTRwxYHGzdXfISfIdT_V4nMpUg/s320/IMG00442.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN9lr3azK7B7k6za_Q5eitVEI0VnhvbBRG_Poll3zTP7EmDZ-wyXLqRItAL00CvW_yyDbTGzLnANrMA-HOz5e6-PqoPZ8j78Mz4bs-U_YeGPsGa0vcyE2_14xoZDK5r0dQPvOYkdRocg/s1600-h/IMG00439.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286138249629671682" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN9lr3azK7B7k6za_Q5eitVEI0VnhvbBRG_Poll3zTP7EmDZ-wyXLqRItAL00CvW_yyDbTGzLnANrMA-HOz5e6-PqoPZ8j78Mz4bs-U_YeGPsGa0vcyE2_14xoZDK5r0dQPvOYkdRocg/s320/IMG00439.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAYnU7gr8yAVCFmitJ4oD5XqTVpifmg49NkOoleCatd3z79eP4dfiCqbA7yIF5UlMh59W7SJDOITCwqIStHg7WpmXogFNy6oMDkoV_pOi1jECB4z7w8FxMgEuh3d3DDdUYmqtIm_2bIA/s1600-h/IMG00438.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286137327236560018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 229px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAYnU7gr8yAVCFmitJ4oD5XqTVpifmg49NkOoleCatd3z79eP4dfiCqbA7yIF5UlMh59W7SJDOITCwqIStHg7WpmXogFNy6oMDkoV_pOi1jECB4z7w8FxMgEuh3d3DDdUYmqtIm_2bIA/s320/IMG00438.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><div><div><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">Its been a long while since my last post so if anybody out there in blog land reads my little blog, I'm sorry!

He says it pays to be an only child! Soon John and I are going on a cruise and we are VERY excited!! Here are some Christmas pictures. Wesley is on the high school basketball team and he has done very well. So one of his presents was a letter jacket, he LOVED it!! The other picture is of a pair of shoes that he wanted.

They are always near me and if I 'm up doing something they are right next to John. Emma, goes to get one of her many babies every night. She drops it on my lap and gives a cute little bark. That is her way of saying "hey! Lets play." Andy just watches and if we seem to be having to much fun then he will join in. There is nothing like the joy of having fur babies! Lots of love for everyone in the family. </span></div></div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-45798212453117632112008-11-08T19:04:00.002-05:002008-11-08T19:07:34.933-05:00GRUMPY DAYI have been very grumpy today! BUT..it’s not my fault!!! As I have mentioned before John and I like to explore on the weekends. Well today my wonderful husband woke me up at 5 am!! He never set the clock on his side of the bed back one hour! He was lying in bed waiting for me to wake up and he finally got tired of waiting at 6 (but it was really 5). I was so tired!! I got in the shower, brushed my teeth, went to the kitchen to get some water, and looked at the clock on the oven. It was 5:10!!!!! I ran back to the bathroom hit him on the arm told him what time it really was and went back to bed!! Well, once I’m up and showered I’m up!!! I could not go back to sleep!!<br /><br />I have been doing silly things all day because of my lack of sleep! I left my blackberry at home for most of the morning! I’m lost without it! It has my to do list on it and I had to do things without my list!! I have said silly things all day and getting words mixed up. I put food in the crock-pot and never plugged it in and got mad when the food wasn’t being cooked! Thank goodness it had only been about an hour.<br /><br />So how did I end my day?? I ate popcorn for dinner!!!! Not all butter kind the 94% fat free kind!<br />Next time I will not wake up unless my blackberry alarm goes off!!Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-84521003349334785362008-11-04T18:54:00.002-05:002008-11-04T18:58:29.349-05:00Spring and Fall<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbHHfqPCTD-ImoliufDH13whorgX9Xbx570_Pj9uPlpqWtuhvxertivrmbnEbcocDZ32MzORCMO2a_reqZ8HjIUmdXgafqvIWGV6zvfCu8e5k9izaLWJul3vTeXKrmBPPnjEAj2CLswA/s1600-h/CIMG1863.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5264955975334065426" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbHHfqPCTD-ImoliufDH13whorgX9Xbx570_Pj9uPlpqWtuhvxertivrmbnEbcocDZ32MzORCMO2a_reqZ8HjIUmdXgafqvIWGV6zvfCu8e5k9izaLWJul3vTeXKrmBPPnjEAj2CLswA/s320/CIMG1863.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkclY0j4jTlBb-TWK-vFdBBHX9EEp8k3tfCZ6PuOxHVMhLe1qXprwbCNzYUaXjmAqGY3IQf6CMaw5x5l0GVmmYFDQ2YNJVzSPjn40zKBjRkOhWkJOE15vOcGiiwKtYg4pPWp5Dtg_rDQ/s1600-h/Sept+08+003.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5264955587000285026" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkclY0j4jTlBb-TWK-vFdBBHX9EEp8k3tfCZ6PuOxHVMhLe1qXprwbCNzYUaXjmAqGY3IQf6CMaw5x5l0GVmmYFDQ2YNJVzSPjn40zKBjRkOhWkJOE15vOcGiiwKtYg4pPWp5Dtg_rDQ/s320/Sept+08+003.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55242240087001240.post-6488493011836367602008-11-04T18:12:00.005-05:002008-11-04T18:20:07.882-05:00Beautiful Colors!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGPuG9Wkf-eiIde1NtK9Izeo5Pn6vbyC4RGybdvM3CdmVlPezVsqD0T3gcOfEZODtWU4AOiP_pa9xL1gymW53X6P70Bhlz6HmTAJx9OEifBnen4B4xZ4ff-YWgnBLBvz50e7CpVOHhxQ/s1600-h/CIMG1866.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5264946080449644098" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGPuG9Wkf-eiIde1NtK9Izeo5Pn6vbyC4RGybdvM3CdmVlPezVsqD0T3gcOfEZODtWU4AOiP_pa9xL1gymW53X6P70Bhlz6HmTAJx9OEifBnen4B4xZ4ff-YWgnBLBvz50e7CpVOHhxQ/s320/CIMG1866.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirxDLF0suFUTCqEjnsx0Gl_uyxYY1F6iezbCpJ0pTe7Onkt3LI9ZNe0QEIlzZ8yunciMisNgPKSXpdGTHetuH2L4gaU-HfPvnEDpP7oOXE5ccR5nRray7S6hDR53XuvxAbSgMI1t1SlQ/s1600-h/CIMG1868.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5264945794081329586" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirxDLF0suFUTCqEjnsx0Gl_uyxYY1F6iezbCpJ0pTe7Onkt3LI9ZNe0QEIlzZ8yunciMisNgPKSXpdGTHetuH2L4gaU-HfPvnEDpP7oOXE5ccR5nRray7S6hDR53XuvxAbSgMI1t1SlQ/s320/CIMG1868.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE-5NyJ04BPZJSf9DwhQCiDf_zTuCWPZSm-GhWgz7FHZgQl5Daq43l5yZPjJL7KrHKnUIsvqWI_yKP-4kl9vQdH_QkmCJCKVr8bOIPvopuYT5jWiD1xNzj9SjrxGnXOL7zLIq69OoEMQ/s1600-h/CIMG1848.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5264945478597073778" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE-5NyJ04BPZJSf9DwhQCiDf_zTuCWPZSm-GhWgz7FHZgQl5Daq43l5yZPjJL7KrHKnUIsvqWI_yKP-4kl9vQdH_QkmCJCKVr8bOIPvopuYT5jWiD1xNzj9SjrxGnXOL7zLIq69OoEMQ/s320/CIMG1848.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">I really miss my family in Texas but I love living in North Carolina in the spring and fall.

We were told that there was now a Columbine Memorial and we wanted to go visit the memorial. Even though we did not know anyone at the school we do have a connection. My mother in-law was <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">superintendent</span> at the time of the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">tragedy</span>. So we know about some of the pain that everyone went through and continues to go through almost 10 years later. </span></div><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">The memorial was very peaceful. It was designed perfectly. It really is a place to go for reflection. I can't imagine the pain that the parents are going through, or the students. The pictures are of some touching quotes on the wall. If you ever have a chance to go visit please do. </span></div></div></div>Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18206058650092799308noreply@blogger.com0
