short and Sweet:)
Well since my post yesterday was a little on the longer side i will keep this one short and sweet... I have been up for a few hours already and I am making another PhotoScrapbook for another blurb book:) Im soo excited! but I can't tell you much more than that because it will be a gift book.. And that person may or may not read my blog so I am not going to chance it. LOL anyway.. I am using the layouts from the Quick Page(QP) Exchange and so it is going so fast but I am journaling on it too so that slows me down just a tad.. and fixing the photos too.. Sooo I hope to get the book done by this weekend.. (since its a long one) LOL :) BUT!!!! today is nice out so I am going to mow... The next three days it calls for rain so I best mow today.
I have a hanging upside down tomato plant.. anyone else have one of these? I am not sure how to do it.. but I have been watering it regularly and it just doesn't seem to have grown much.. Do they not grown very much? let me know if you have any hints tips or ideas. I am clueless. I can grown them out of the ground but thought i would try this for this year.
I AM SOOO EXCITED to give you this download. :) Because these are always my favorite. :)

SOO I went to my Brothers Graduation last weekend. OHHH that was so much fun! I told him I wasn't going to cry for your graduation but DONT EVER get MARRIED!!! LOL Yeah, Well, then I ended up crying anyway. LOL My brother is also really sad that school has ended too. I think he just realized how much he is really going to miss his classmates. They were a REALLY REALLY close class. It was a class of 30. Yes that may seem small but my class was 40. We are from a SMALL town in the DEEP MIDWEST! LOL :) Anyway.. So I have taken alot of photos of him and hope to get a Album done for him soon.. I dont think he has had a chance to miss school much yet so I dont think I need to be in TOO big of a hurry:) just before I hit 50 right? LOL I shouldn't laugh its coming faster than I thought It would. :)

Wow We had alot of weird weather as of late.. Yesterday we went to Curtis' Track and Field Day. This one they actually run and do the long jump and such. The last one they played games like roll the tire and the Feed Sack Race.. Well, We went last night and it was cooling off from the high 80's and was getting a bit chilly... the Clouds were rolling in and getting darker and closer and Lightening and Thunder and Well we ended up going home in the middle of it.. I was getting nervous so it was GREAT that we got to go home... LOL :)
Guess what else happened? Well it turns out I am NOT the only person in Nebrasaka that does Digital Scrapbooking.. LOL I met one of Curtis' Friends Mother and she.. Automatically took me as a scrapbooker. LOL She seen that house I made for Curtis for school and knew I must be into something like it. LOL Anyway she is a Creative Memories Consultant.. And she showed me her book she just got printed out. LOL I guess they have get togethers and everything. Anyway.. sounds Pretty cool:)
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE for leaving some love to LVMOMMY:) I am sure she will love to read about all the prayers and everyone thinking of her! :) BEAR HUGS:)
And I also Hope that Cheryl is doing much better too. :) BEAR HUGS:)
Gosh, I have so much to do.. OHHH If you haven't, You need to go to Let's Scrap and get in on the NEXT Quick Page Exchange.. Its really easy.. You just use anything from one of the kits that are Free at Let's Scrap and you Make a Layout.. but you leave a Transparent opening for pictures... Then you save it in .png format...

Alright so.. I realized that it has been awhile since I have updated you on the Family:)
Curtis is doing GREAT.. tonight I guess we have Track and Field day.. I just seen that today on the calender.. OMG I am charging up the battery to the camera and getting things ready for that. They didn't send anything from school so I am going to call and see if they are having it or what. I am assuming so but dont you think they would send a paper or something reminding the parents??? I am lost I guess. LOL HE is getting big and is Mom's boy.. I was going to show everyone a picture of him and Erin fishing but 2 of them are dark and the other one there is a branch in the wrong place and there is a little plumbers crack in it.. LOL didn't figure I would share that with the world.. curtis... Pull up your Britches!!! :) He still is 6 but acts like hes 12.. LOL.. He went to his friends house the other day.. without mom and dad!!! I KNOW huh? :( hes growing up.. that was his first day to go to a friends house without us.
Kyle is doing great.. he Acts SPOILED!!! he is fully potty trained and takes 2-4 baths a day... I sit down for a little while and turn around and hes getting back in the bath tub.. I guess we dont have to worry about him smelling or not liking the water or taking baths but come on.... dry off a little before you take your next bath!! LOL :) He still has a horrible time sleeping at night.. and mom gets the lovely duty of waking up and refilling his cup and then hoping he goes right back to sleep.. but sometimes he just doesn't.. :( AWFUL HUH!!! Who would have thought a mother gets less sleep than Than anyone in the world.. LOL
Clint.. well... he is doing GREAT at potty training.. he has 3 wonderful teachers.. Except the part where I get to fall in the toilet at 3 in the moring in the pitch black.. yeah.. they could work on putting the toilet seat down.. TURDS!!!! Anyway.. he is talking up a storm.. and he says alot.. but the funniest I think so far.. is "KYLE JACOB NO!" ..... LOL he yells at his brother all the time.. and he says Kyles full NAME TOO! :) LOL HAHAHAHA
Erin is full steam ahead with fertilizer season.. and is gone all day. I dont get to spend any time with him or anything. :( this is the worst time of the year for me OHHH and harvest.. I loose my best friend and he is sooo crabby all the time because of being tired. SOO I seriously loose my best friend at this time of year.. this is why I wanted him to get on full time at the post office before.. but he has no desire to do anything but work at the coop anymore. Either way he is overworked and definately under paid.. he does so many jobs and if they ever had to replace him they would have to hire at least 2 people, a oilchange, tireman, general laborer.... and a propane, truck driver... He just needs to learn to say no to all the things he takes on but he is too nice and always wants to make everyone happy... all this being said.. He only spends about an hour with the boys because they go to bed not long after he gets home.. and sometimes in bed before he gets home...
ALRIGHT ENOUGH OF MY RANT AND FEEL SORRY FOR ME POST> LOL But I dont have any place else to rant other than to my mom.. LOL :) SOOOO

But he can't right? Because The explosion happens 2 days after the election. Hmmm I think Hero should have killed him, but I dont know how he did... He broke the sword, but the Future Hero still has the sword.. so someone fixed it for him. I know.. Confusing. LOL :)

Yes I missed out on blogging yesterday.. I am sorry about that. BUT I do feel much better. :) Not only that but the horrible storms out here in tornado Valley were horrible.. There were many!!! And My prayers to those that have lost family and loved ones from the devastating tornados in Kansas.. My prayers to those that have lost all thier possessions and properties to the tornados.
SOOO... We had family down to visit Yesterday, so we went to visit them.. we wish we could see them more often.. the kids have so much fun with them! :) WE LOVE YOU GUYS! :)

Misscommunications!! LOL
NOOOO NOOO NOOO... LOL i am not pregnant. I was telling a story.. sorry for not being clearer.. I meant to say.. This cold I have is bad but not as bad as when I was preg.. LOL :) SORRY!!!! (now you prolly jinxed me and next week I will prolly find Out I am preg.. LOL)
Still under the Weather
Alright Still not doing any better. But I think i am at the plateu before it gets better. And Shell Reminded me that BEING pregnant and having this is sooooo HORRIBLE.. My last 2 boys I got really really sick.. Similar to what I have now but much worse. SOOOO bad in fact that I had a horrible temp and I almost lost my middle son.. I was put on temporary bedrest and given that medicine to stregthen the part (trying not to be graphic) that holds the baby inside of you.. because he was wanting to come out... Anyway, From that point on i have been disappointed in the progress our scientists have made.. How can you put a MAN on the MOON... And not have medications to help Pregnant woment that are sick, in pain, etc.... HOW? we have the technology to do all sorts of stuff except to make womans preganancy just a TAD bit easier? turds!!!!!!!
