Friday Blues

Yes, that's right... FRIDAY blues.

I walk out to my car with a big stinky bag of garbage. I'm already 5-10 minutes late getting out the door. What do I see when I arrive at my car?!?!

.... A FLAT TIRE!!

Once again, Mr. Wonderful saved the day. He dragged himself out of bed at 7am and came over to fix it. It's 9:00 and I'm still not at work... hopefully I'll make it there soon.

In the meantime, the BEST TOSS STUDENT IN THE WORLD is teaching all by her lonesome. The kiddos giving her a hard time will feel my wrath when I finally get there. No recess for YOU!

He's Here!!

I am officially an aunt... well, kind of. If anyone asks me who this BEAUTIFUL boy is, he is my nephew. My first cousin, Lori had the first grandbaby in our family on Saturday. We grew up across the street from each other in Waynesville and I have always looked to her as more of a big sister than anything else. That makes ME an aunt! :-) I have already cried and said thank you prayers that everyone is O.K.

So.... welcome to the world baby Boone! You are loved loved loved already and I cannot wait to meet you next weekend!!

On a different auntie note, I am finally posting pictures of Bradley and Maddie in their Halloween get ups. Bradley is the rooster and Maddie is the chicken. Mo (Megan) tells me this is the ONLY picture she could get of Bradley not screaming his head off. By the time I got there, they were out of their costumes!

Auntie Cha loves her cranky pants rooster and her silly pants chicken!!

Posting with Pictures

Yes, ladies and gentlemen... it's true. I have a brand new digital camera and I have not posted any new pictures. Until now.

The irrepressible Jennie Lynn Boone.... See? This is what happens when you play with your big sister's camera!

I am nearing the end of my first semester in grad school and looking forward to moving into my first apartment all by myself!! Move-in date is December 23rd. I will send out an SOS for big burly moving men in the near future. :-)

Nicole and I headed out to Wild Bill's... little did we know it would be a night full of SCARY cowboys. Not the cute ones.

Yes, little did we know there were NO cute boys at Wild Bill's, only the scary ones. Scary ones that follow you around the dance floor when you are CLEARLY trying to dance AWAY from them. You know what the worst part was? The scary ones don't even buy you drinks!! We did have fun and we will be headed back eventually. When we KNOW the cute boys will be there.

More to come later....
