Omaha

Having fun on my girl scout trip. I was so excited to get to see my bestie too! She's so great-she got us good price for our hotel room so she met us this afternoon & has hung out with us all day! Girls had fun @ the aquatic center for a couple hours this afternoon but they closed because of lightening so we came back to the hotel & swam for a couple hours. Then the girls played games in our room before we went for supper & after supper we came back to the hotel & I had a blast being silly with my bestie in the pool! We even did syncronized swimming! Ha ha. I'm sure she'll post the videos on facebook! Excited about going to the Omaha zoo tomorrow!!! Plan is to be there from 9-5 & then come back to the hotel & probably swim in the pool some more!

*EDIT*
Making progress on getting ready for Saturday's Party!  Good thing H is willing to help considering it's HER party! :P  OH, and if you're in the area...come to Movie Time Video tomorrow from 10-1 for a carwash fundraiser...$5 a car...helps send kids to Washington DC next spring!!


I really wish I could get back into the grove of blogging again...Facebook is just so much faster & easier...LOL :P 

We have H's 13th bday party on Saturday...I can't believe she's almost 13...and it's her 1st boy/girl party.  EEK.  She wanted a "beach" theme so it's all going to be out around the pool and there's SOOOO much I need to do to finish getting ready. 

  • finish mowing
  • vacuum pool  not looking forward to this...it's COLD today!!!
  • roll out tarp & clean it off
  • move rocks so tarp doesn't blow away
  • put out tent
  • clean house (incase the weather doesn't permit the party to be outside...) almost done
  • put up new trampoline so noone gets hurt on current broken one

I need more days......then Sunday I'll be busy gettin Natalie ready for Girl Scout camp (her 1st time going). She goes on Monday for 3 days...I'm sad that I won't be able to take her or pick her up though as I am taking my troop to Omaha for the same 3 days. We've got a fun time planned though...staying in hotel in Council Bluffs, going to an aquatic center there on Monday, the zoo on Tuesday, & a museum on Wednesday then head back home. Should be fun...

What's new with me...oh yeah, WE HAVE NO CARS!!!!!!!!  DH's engine blew up so it's been out of commission for a few weeks now so we got to talking about trading van in on 2 new cars. We wouldn't get much $ for my van so then we thought that maybe he'd drive van & I'd get new car. Last week we decided to just put a for sale sign in van just to see if we get any bites. NO MORE THAN 10 minutes after we parked the van by the road with signs in it, someone pulled in, drove it & bought it...therefore putting us without a vehicle. Thank God both our parents have extra cars!!! So, now I have to find a job in order to make a car payment so I can get a new one...hopefully we'll get something in the next week or so...but we'll see I guess. Such craziness....

Well, I guess I need to get to bed...I really want to try to keep this blog up again though...summers are just SO busy with all the stuff going on (so much outside work to be done)

TTFN.....

Well, I sure don't get many footsteps anymore...maybe it's because I'm never on here...HAHA!!!  Between life and FB, I just don't seem to take the time to blog anymore...maybe someday my life will slow down???

H starts fundraising for her 8th grade DC trip next spring already...uffda!  I'm excited to hopefully get to go with her on that trip...I've never been there.  Next Saturday is the 1st fundraising she's participating in...we're doing a carwash Saturday at 9am by MovieTime if you're around and want your car washed.  I will be working with her as any hours I put in to work go towards her earning money too!  She needs to earn 100% of this trip or she won't be going as I can't afford $1600 for the both of us to go!   She's been busy this past week pickin rocks too with her grandma to earn money for DC also.  I think that's the most work she's done...ever! LOL

K has been struggling with a cough for about 5 months now and we're trying to figure out what's causing it...could be allergies or asthma.  She's excited for girl scout camp and our troop trip this summer.  And she's also busy with swimming, lessons, and t-ball.  She's also in VBS this week.

N is busy still with Karate...she's a green belt now!  We're taking June off though because of t-ball and VBS.  She's also excited for girl scout camp this summer. 

DH & I have been busy with building our pool area...planging bushes, building fences & decks, installing the pool & filters, etc.  It's been a fun project & with just a little more landscaping and cleaning up we'll be done for this season.  We have many more fun things we'd like to do with the area, but it's got to be done in stages (the checkbook said so)!  Our next step is to clean out a building so that we can get the junk cleaned up in the pool area...we have no place to put some of it as we had to tear down a building to put the pool up.

I've been busy running kids here & there, gardening, planting flowers, working, being a group facilitator for ALPHA, being on the worship team, and helping a family member edit a book she's writing!  I feel God's calling me to go back to school...I'm just trying to figure out exactly where.  I'd LOVE to learn more about biblical history, webdesign sounds kind of fun, I have really felt a calling to learn sign language to use during worship at church, and I've re-discovered a passion for "english" (communications type stuff) in editing this book.  So...not sure where that will lead.

I hope to put some pictures up of the pool area soon, but we'll see.  All the pictures are on my Facebook page...if you're on FB, look me up!!!  You'll definitely find me there MUCH more often.

Here's a video for your enjoyment...just a passion of mine...you'll have to pause or stop the music at the bottom of the page to listen to it
