Snippets



This is what we saw the last night we were in Gatlinburg. I never could get very good pictures of the scenery because it rained all day the first day and the second the sun never really came out for a sunrise. So this is what I got....still absolutely gorgeous..looking at it right now makes me want to go back.



My precious princess! Here she is all bundled up at Nascar Speedpark. I just love this little bundle!



I can't put into words what this picture means to me. This is my dad and he is truly my hero. He and I have been through the ringer together through the years but amazingly we have come out to be such good friends. This man means more to me than I can verbalize. I cherish this picture!!!





This is sooo cool! It's called the Cool School Computer made by Fisher Price and it connects to my computer. I got it for Jacob to practice his letters more at home since he will be at kindergarten next and I really don't feel as though he is getting enough of it at school(that's another post for later) There are several stations they can go to on the computer such as music,art,numbers,letters and they can even take field trips on it. The coolest thing is that it has a pad off to the side that you can put templates of the letters under and trace them...Get this though...it shows up on the computer screen so that they can see what they are doing and how their letters look. I just think this is the coolest thing!

Nothing particular to post about today so this was just a bunch of snippets I had sitting aside. I am going to get my Halloween pics loaded onto my computer sometime today...I'm a horrible mother that I haven't done that yet. Those are to come soon!

that scenery pic is beautiful!

that game looks cool... I love educational computer games for kids and giving them the opportunity to practice writing and seeing it on the screen is major incentive

LOve the picture of the view. Beautiful! Frame that one! I saw that game last night at Toys R Us. I was thinking about it for Kolby for Christmas. Would you give it 2 thumbs up?

Thanks for stopping by my Blog...I am so happy for you to follow me....it's amazing how "normal" our lives actually are when we start looking into the lives of others....we are quite a bit alike except for the "Tutu" thing....
:-) maybe someday for me! I've been reading your blog for awhile behind the scenes so I thought I better quit lurking around and make myself known as a follower! Hope you don't mind!

Thank you :) I did it myself through scrapblog.com - it's really simple! My suggestion is to do a practice one with a pre-made layout so you can get the hang of it & then make a real one with a blank layout! Unless you're computer savvy - then you can just jump right in! Let me know if you need any help!!

PS - I love that picture of ur little girl! She's a doll!

The sunset is gorgeous and the kids are precious as usual. Sweet picture of your son and grandpa. I miss my dad so much (it's only been a year), and I treasure all the pictures we have of him.
