Snow!!!!!


My little house in the snow. I know that it is hard to see, but it's there. We had a little trouble getting up the hill, but we made it and I didn't have to walk any groceries up that hill! I hate to see the snow go way, we had 3 funerals today, 10AM, 2PM, and 4PM so no play for me. Boo Hoo. The girls went to a Cheerleading Clinic today and then came back to the funeral home to work for me and make a little cash. They do all the dirty work that I don't like to do.

Taylor and Gymnastics

Both girls started gymnastics yesterday. Mary Margaret did really well. Poor Taylor...she knocked over the coach while trying to learn a flip. Every time the coach turned his head, Taylor stopped working. Some of the exercises were knee slapping funny! Mary Margaret said that she felt like she was dieing this morning and that it hurt to even put on her shoes. Taylor was not suffering.

We are so busy at the Funeral Home.

Mary Margaret and Her Blonde Moments

Some of you know well how blonde Mary Margaret can be. She had a BIG blonde moment Monday night. It was storming and usually our lights go out during a storm...Mary Margaret was up front by herself, Taylor and I in the bedrooms...the lights go out. Mary Margaret screams....."Oh my gosh, what just happened?!?!?!" I think to myself, is she serious?...so trying to be funny I yell back to her "Mary Margaret, I think someone turned off the water!" She yells back...................................................................................................."Does the water make the lights work?"
This child will be allowed to take her driver's test next year....scary

Did I mention that she is trying out for cheerleading? I would like to point out that I did not discourage or encourage the cheerleading thing. She came home and announced that she had signed up to tryout. We went today to Dr. Jacobs to get her physical (nothing to that). I felt like I was signing my life away, signing all the permission's and rules and regulations. I believe I signed less paper work when we bought our house. Practice begins next week and the actual tryout is March 14 (on Taylor's Birthday). She loves this kind of stuff. I wish her LOTS OF LUCK!

This little adventure of Mary Margarets is going to cost out the wazoo...

Johnathon Update
Angela and Garrie left to take John back to Camp Shelby today. Yesterday I saw on the news that Camp Shelby was hit by a tornado. I haven't talked to any of them, hope they have a safe trip.

???????SNOW??????



Didn't I just say in the last post that Spring was here? Yesterday, 60 degrees at 5 AM, by last night at 6 PM it was 38 degrees and TODAY it is SNOWING......


I have to appologize to Tim, he said we were getting 4 inches of snow today...I said

"You are Crazy!".....HE MIGHT BE RIGHT!

Don't you know that the kids at school are loving this!....O, I wonder, will they let them out early...that could be a problem.

HERE'S TO SPRING AND WEEKENDS!!!!!!!

Mary Maragaret and John...he's trying his best to look MEAN.
Taylor and John. He's leaving for Iraq in a couple of weeks. This will be his last time home before he leaves. He too young to be going to Iraq. We had a big dinner with all John's favorites at the Butler's house.

Could it be Spring? The buttercups were blooming Sunday at my
mother-in-law's house!

The weekend was beautiful and way too fast! Saturday, 5 AM got up, washed and dryed 3 loads of clothes and washed every dish that I own (stetched a little, but really...these people I live with do not use the same glass twice! The dishwasher has thought about going on strike...just make more work for me later....ha ha yes, I am the dishwasher) 7:30 am went to Kernodle's and worked a little early Saturday morning, drove to LR, did a little shopping at the Park Plaza (never been to that mall, loved it!) in LR with Nicole, ate at El Porton (could be spelled wrong), watched a $1 movie, Veggie Tales, drove home, all in one day. Sunday, got up at 5 am, gave the kitchen floor a mop job, vaccumed, washed and dryed 4 loads of clothes, 9AM went to Kernodle's worked that morning till lunch...then went to the Butler's for the dinner...and then went home and SAT DOWN and tried to watch Oprah's Big Give...could not get into it, LOVED the Newlywed reality show!

Tonight I get to watch BRING IT ON, IN IT TO WIN IT. Those of you who do not know...that is the ULTIMATE cheerleading movie! Mary Margaret begins Cheerleading tryouts March 10, whoop whoop! I really should let them have DVD Players in their rooms...I wouldn't have to watch all these CHEER movies! Then I also wouldn't see the girls very much...so...no DVD players
