I was tagged....DAYS ago :(

Okay....sooo sorry Lezel...http://thesafitribe.blogspot.com/...I just checked out your blog and you had tagged me a couple of days ago :( Loser Blogger I am!!! So, I think I'm supposed to go to my 4th picture file and pull the 4th picture out of it?? K, here I go...ahhhh, it's Connor and Brian...PreJake days. I guess that would make Connor even younger than Jake is now?? WILD! Don't know what they were watching...but such a sweet little photo that had totally been forgotten about :( Thanks for making me go into the old picture archives :)

And this is why blogging is so important to me....

Everyone (well, you know, all 6 of you whom I dearly love,) Kat, at http://www.sunshineandlemonade.blogspot.com/ (whom I have never met...but feel like if she walked into my house, we'd talk for hours..CRAZNIESS!) is in need of our prayers. It seems as though her husband had an aneurysm this past weekend. She too had just dealt with some crazy vertigo herself just last week. Her family is precious...two of the sweetest girls ever. I just read about all of this and am putting sticky notes all over my house to remind to pray for this family :) Will you please do the same? Well, I mean, pray...you don't have to put the sticky notes up everywhere :)

(Sorry I've been away for so long...just a lot of time on the computer...but not for blogging :( However, today...the boys are home because we got 1/8th of an inch of ice and snow for them to play in :) Amanda...I'm not sure if you are familiar with our measurements or not...but that is the tiniest of bits....but they are soooo excited :) Anyway, I am checking in on you all....still leavin' the love when I can :)

Everyone have a great day!

Signing Off...for a bit

Okay...all six of my peeps who read this thang I try to call a blog....my beautiful sister-in-law is in town to help with major decisions like fabrics, paint, stains, granite selections on the new house. We hope to get ALOT done...and have ALOT of fun too...so, I'm signing off for a bit. Wish me luck! Yes, we were supposed to go furniture shopping...but traveling in January is not the best of decisions right now...hopefully in April or May :) I hope to show you lots of our decisions next week!
Hope everyone has a great week! Just know, if I don't comment...I still love ya!

Bummer Sooner

Well, at the end of the day...I know what really matters. Healthy family, friends, food on the table...no National Championship...again, but, life is good. It's really good. And now, I will go and cry until next season :) I love College Football!

BOOMER SOONER BABY!!!!!!!

Okay, NO time to blog, or talk, or ANYTHING!!!! Gotta get my game face on! Although, I think I've had it on for awhile now :) Seriously, we gotta win this game tonight! If not, I'm not gonna watch ESPN for at least a year :)

Just remember ----LEZEL AND RICK----we pulled for your Cowboys!!! Are you gonna pull?? You BETTER not be wearing blue and orange today :( I love you even if you are :)


GO SOONERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOT MUCH TO SAY

Mac had a time with this tulle (sp?) ribbon (from Aunt Karen) and strip of bubble wrap. I have NO idea how he had wrapped it around himself like he did. The picture doesn't do it justice! We sure are loving our little puppy! (Sorry, try to overlook all the Christmas clutter from that morning!)

So nothing really exciting happening here at The Amy Clan. Just settling in after Christmas and all. Trying to get back into some kind of routine again :) Sure was nice staying in our pjs all day! But routine is nice too.

In other exciting news....I'm going furniture shopping next week with my FAVORITE sister-in-law!!! She's helping with the interior decorating of the new house and has super-duper taste!! Ought to be a reallllly fun trip. I'm really looking forward to it! We are going to North Carolina to some furniture mall (the name escapes me this second!) and it's supposed to be HUMONGOUS!! Surely I'll find something I like :) (and probably A LOT more!)

Oh yes! The other thing I was going to blog about.....I'm once again....making a pledge to myself.....to work out first/computer later. Soooo, if you don't see me leaving the love all around...you'll know why. I have GOT to get back into some kind of shape! Round is not the one I particularly care for! So far, I've worked out every day this week! I know, it's only Wednesday, but it's way better than how many times I've worked out in the past several months! So, just know, I'm still here....hopefully a little lighter and toner :)

Okay, so that's about it. What a super boring post. Oh yea, I've also pledged to learn how to do stuff on this stinkin' computer this year!!!! You know, like right-click and paste and stuff (I'm kidding a little...I do know how to do that, sometimes!) Linking and doing that thing you guys all know how to do...you know, where it just brings up all your blogroll and their latest posts...that might take me a little while...but I'll be there some day :) You would just LAUGH if you saw how I get around here in Blogland!

Okay, now, I think that's all. Hope everyone is enjoying this New Year!

Tooooo much Horton Hears a Who!!!

So, just a few things I thought were funny this last week . And if I don't write it down here...well, it just won't get written down :(

1) We got Horton Hears a Who for Christmas this year...the boys have probably watched 5 HUNDRED times. So, New Year's Day...this is what I hear over the monitor (YES, I STILL have a monitor...our bedroom is downstairs, their's is up. We shut all of our doors at night and then I can't hear A THING! And I don't like the idea of them coming down the stairs at night if they need something! Okay, done with that rant!) Ah yes, now where was I ???? So, this is what I wake up to over the monitor...."We are Here, We are Here, We are Here" being chanted OVER AND OVER!!! It really was funny!

2) On the way home from the grocery store...Jake says, "Mommy, I love you real high!" (With arms spread to try and touch the top of ceiling). Ahhhh!

That's all I can think of right now...gotta get some lunch goin'. Hope you all enjoy this weekend and get to watch a lot of football!!! (Lisa--I usually always pull for the Big 12 Conference...no matter what...but this year...I'm gonna root for your Buckeyes!!! Go Bucks!!)
