"Race To Witch Mountain"

I took the kids to see "Race To Witch Mountain" today. Our first spring break outing. It was such a good movie. Lots of adventure & I ALWAYS love a movie with The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) in it. I'm a huge fan!! He's just so cute!! Ok, enough about The Rock & back to the movie. Bret was a little skeptical about the movie because she loves the old movie so much. She didn't think the new one could live up to it. (She's a huge fan of old movies.) But about 15 minutes into it, she says "Mom, I'm glad I came now". Yea, I knew she would be.
Highly recommended. Cody, Bret & Lola stamp of approval.

Friday was such a good day. My baby girl, Bret, has been working so hard all week long at a dance clinic getting ready for dance try-outs for her school. They had the actual try-outs Friday morning & we had to wait til 3:30 to find out if she mad the team. Scan to 3:30pm...SHE MADE IT!!!!!!! WOOT-WOOT!!!! She was so nervous & so was I, even though I tried to hide that from her. So get ready cuz I'm sure there's going to be lots of pictures after school starts next year. She is now a NJHS DANCER!!!

Also, another shout out to my sweet online scrapbook & blog friend, Marlene!!! Girlfriend, you come up with the coolest ideas!!! I love visiting her blog cuz she always has something that I want to try. Like my pretty name signature on the bottom? She shared this great website where you can get make one of your own, or two, or three. I LOVE this so much that I had to share with everyone. Thanks Marlene!!! You rock!

Baby Pictures

Ok folks, don't you just love it when you find old pictures of your kids, like when they were babies? I just ran across a cd that I had made for my dad a few years ago of my kids. I printed a whole picture album full of pictures to give to him for Father's Day. So I've been looking at these pix & their sweet little faces, and boo-hooing like a baby! Brings back so many memories. I miss having my babies, but I am so proud of the awesome young kids they've grown into. Just thought I'd share a few. I have to admit, they were the sweetest, most beautiful babies I've ever seen. (I'm not biased at all...promise. LOL!)

*This is one of my FAVORITES. I actually have this one in a frame sitting on my tv.*

*Bret about 18 months old*

*Cody when he was just a little over a year old*

*Bret about 2 years old*

*Cody after his 1st hair cut, little over a year old*

*My precious babies**

Aren't they beautiful? Of course they are!! Now, please don't tell me if you think they are not. LOL!!

Snow Day 2009

We had a wonderful snow day in Jonesboro this weekend that started out of nowhere on Saturday. The flakes were coming down so hard and they were huge! It started covering the ground pretty quickly. It continued to snow through the night & when we woke up Sunday morning, we had about 5-6 inches. Wow, it was beautiful. But it didn't last very long once the sun came out. It was pretty much melted away by late Sunday afternoon. Cody did get out for a little while Sunday morning & enjoyed playing for just a little while.
