Candle By Night

Yes, I will admit it. I turned 30 today and I am not afraid to say so. LOL :-D I have seen people write about things they have accomplished or big events in their lives, facts about them, on their birthday posts. For instance, someone that turns 21 will list 21 things that have happened in their life. So, just for fun, I thought I would do that too. (Not in any particular order) 1. Gave my life to God on August 31, 1998. (Not something I earned...but a gift for anyone who asks) 2 . Learned to play the piano (but forgot most of it) 3 . Learned to play the flute (forgot most of that too) 4 . Played varsity basketball my freshman year of HS 5 . Played varsity volleyball my junior/senior year 6 . Ran track in high school (Hurdles...and hated it...but at least I did it) 7 . Got my driver's license 8 . Learned to drive a stick shift 9 . Lettered in Academics my freshman year of high school 10 . Learned how to use a sewing machine (in High School) 11 . Grandma Krumme taught me how to cr...

We are still alive and just like everyone else we have a lot going on. :-) But I wanted to share pictures for all of our family and friends that have been waiting patiently. (I Know...I know...I don't post enough.) First up is a picture of Special K of course! :-) I can't believe she will be 7 weeks old tomorrow! "Who...me?" "Yeah...I know I'm beautiful!" ;-) And this is the time of year to buy things for the children that they don't normally get. One of those things are nuts in the shells. It is pretty interesting to watch. Just as long as you pay attention in case you need to duck. Many nuts went flying across the room. LOL Oh well...this only happens one time a year and they have a lot of fun with it. Plus they learn there are more than just one kind of nut. :-) Next up is Little E as "Dee-Doe" Can you guess what is going on in this picture? Did you guess it? Yes..I did give the children two bags of kisses to unwrap. I know..I am nuts, b...

I know...what a title to start off with right? I was lucky enough to do another review for Timberdoodle and this time it was for the " My First Brainbox " and a Hot Rocket . ( *** Disclosure: Mama Buzz and reviewers, received a complimentary copy of this game and rocket for review purposes . **) Price: Brainbox- $17.00 From Timberdoodles Website : Do You Have a Young Child? If you have a young child, My First BrainBox should be in your home. With 55 sturdy picture/question cards, it will be a game that can be used for many years, in many ways. Springboard to Developing Observation Skills For a very young child each charming illustration can be a springboard to developing fundamental observation skills. If you don't know what to ask, use the questions on the back as your basic starting point. And because most of the colorful illustrations in My First BrainBox are of familiar scenes, the next step would be to have your children study the picture and tell you a story abou...

I found this video while I was looking through old posts....still just as funny. :-)

Boy...once again I do have a lot to catch up on. So I will make this as short as possible. :-) First up...instead of calling the newest addition Baby K I am now going to call her "Special K." Her uncle started calling the sweet one that and I think it's a good idea. :-) So, first up are a couple of odds n ends pics. I just can't get enough of Special K. She is absolutely adorable and it's even cuter to capture funny pics of her. ;-) Sweet E.....still as sweet as ever. :-D Little E usually has his Dee-Doe (Diego) backpack on these days. He enjoys looking at books too. On Thanksgiving day we headed down to my parents home. It was so good to get to see my Sissy (I have only seen her 2 times this past year) and her Fiance (and it had been about 2 years since I have seen him!). This picture leaves much to be desired. Half of us are in the shade and the others are stuck "squinting" in the sun. Won't even go into how bad I look......so...next pic please.......
