Where did last year go??

Oh my goodness, where did the last year go? I don't believe that I missed a whole year.

We have been really busy and we have gone thru a lot. In March, my husband was let go from his job, but within 19 hours had another job lined up. So in April he started working at AST. He worked there when our son was born and I think that they were happy to have him back.

In May we started racing again. I was even going to race...but that didn't last long...I wasn't very good. But I knew with time, it would get better. I only raced three races and only had 9pts, but I had fun.

Don raced all year and finished in 3rd place again this year. My son and I didn't make it to the finals this year due to the weather, but we were able to see everything online and he was constintly calling me. He finished third place...but the last three were all from Martin. Really awesome!!! Next year we will do it!!!

Donny began Pre-school in the fall. Where has the last 4 years gone. How can my son be starting pre-school already??? He is loving it more and more. And he is learning so much. He knows a lot of bible memory verses...and he learns them on the first day of having it!!!

We spent Thanksgiving at home this year...it was very relaxing. And a great time with my boys!!! Christmas was also spent at home and it was wonderful!! I love having family time!

For New Year's we went to a friends house and played Euchre...I think that my husband and I are hooked. It was a lot of fun!!!

My next post will have pictures from this past year...I hope that you enjoy them!

Wonderful Shutterfly!

I cannot believe how much I love using shutterfly for various photo projects. In the past year I have gotten three photo books and I have gotten many photo card projects through them.

I have loved designing every single on of my books that I have made. The one book that sticks out the most to me, is the book that I made for our trip to Florida. I was able to use enough pictures to make it seem like you are right there. And everyone that has looked at the book loves it. I have had a lot of people ask me where I have gotten it and I have referred them to Shutterfly! I will include some of the pictures that I used in the book.

Monster Trucks!!!

This was a great Friday night in January. I am just happy that I was able to get over the stomach flu in time to go with my boy. We were both very excited! We have been watching monster trucks on tv, and never thought that we would actually see them in person. Before the show we were able to go out and get some pit passes for the day of the show. And Donny loved it. As you can see in this picture below, we were able to be right up close to the trucks!! And they are HUGE!!!!

We were also able to get autographs from the drivers and take pictures. Donny was usure at first, but then loved it. This is the best picture I got and he always says, "Mama, that is your favorite driver..." he drove a corvette that was turned into a monster truck. SUPER COOL!!!!!

Here is just one picture of what we saw. I mean really, I took like 100. It was sooo cool. I would love to get Donny to Ford Field though...it would be really cool. But we saw this truck do a vertical wheelie. It was AWESOME!!!! And as you can tell in the next picture, Donny LOVED it as well!!!

Do you see this face???? You can't tell me that he didn't enjoy seeing those huge monster trucks!!
