It's Friday!!!

Well, I did it again.  It has been a week since I last went on my blog. But it has been a pretty busy week so I guess that makes up for it.  Things are slowing down in our house.  Winters are quite quiet for us - no sports.  The kids are so busy with sports that we make them take one season off just to chill.  For my son that is winter and my daughter was fall but now that she is on a travel team winter will be her off season.  They need to relax and hang with friends instead of always going to a game.

We have one last football game tomorrow morning. I'm told it is for the conference title.  My son's a freshman so they don't do playoffs only varsity moves on but the freshman are 7-1 and my son has scored 26 touchdowns in those 8 games.  Go Hillman!!!

We spent last weekend (and I mean the entire weekend) at a softball tournament.  It went from 8am Saturday morning to 7:30 pm that night and 7am Sunday morning to 2pm Sunday afternoon.  My daughter's team took 3rd place.  They played phenomenal considering the short amount of time they have been together.  And my girl hit an "in the park" home run!  Here is a pix of the 12U Twisters with their 3rd place plaque.  Great Job Twisters!!!

October 13th!!

Happy Birthday to me!

I know I'm a day late but I actually stayed off the computer on my birthday. That never happens. I didn't even check emails...ugh...paying for that one today.  At least it's friday and should be a quiet one.

October 12, 2011

Wow, I can't believe I haven't blogged in quite awhile. It has been pretty busy in our house. The usual football, softball, and gatherings with our friends have kept me away from my crafting.  I have done a few things but again I keep forgetting to take a picture to post. Ugh!  I have to try and remember to do that.  I've made some cards for birthday parties, and for a friend that was ill and afterwards realized I never took a picture of them.  I enjoy making them but never think of posting them on my blog.

I can't believe it is Autumn already!  Where has this year gone!  I do have to say this is my favorite time of year.  I am a Halloween FANATIC!  I love Halloween.  It's probably because my birthday is in October that I just love this month.  My birthday is Oct 13th...yes sometimes it is on Friday the 13th.  And believe it or not those are usually my luckiest days.  And 13 is my lucky number :)  So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me! (Yes, I love birthdays too!)  I think everyone should be spoiled on their birthday (and I make sure my husband and kids remember that).

Hope everyone has a good Wednesday!
