I have some family members & friends that want to do a sponsorship to my daughter's softball team so I directed them to my blog and attached our teams "donation" button for them to complete the sponsorship.
Unless....you have a company that would like to sponsor a 13U girls travel softball team...please go ahead and click on "Donate". :)
Otherwise just ignore it. Once they process their sponsorship I am going to remove the button.
Thanks and have a great day!

My crabby day :(
It must be "PMS" time for me cause boy am I crabby. It really hit me hard last night when I got home from work. Anything and Everything bothered me. I then realized that I had a touch of crabbiness on Sunday afternoon. And I can't stop eating. As I write this I am snacking on caramel popcorn and it's not even lunchtime yet. Ok...I give in it's that time.
I try really hard to catch myself when I'm crabby to warn my husband and kids. I tell the kids that it's okay to be crabby just admit it. It happens to everyone. We all have happy, sad, and crabby days. Just say "Hey look I'm felling this way today. No real reason for it. Just am." And guess what...we take that into account and we will leave you alone. Otherwise you get the "what's wrong" question over and over and over again until you just explode. And guess what....YOUR CRABBY!
Don't you just hate it when that happens! Hehehe!!!
Well, I hope everyone out in the blog world is having a good Tuesday!
Talk to you soon!

Back to Reality!
School is back in session! I took some time off of work last week to get the kids back to school and enjoy the peace and quiet in the house. I do love this time of year. J started middle school and MJ is now a sophomore in high school. J came home from school on the first day and loves being in middle school. She loves having a locker and changing classes. She is also looking forward to joining Drama Club. She is my drama queen. HAHA!
MJ, well what can I say, he is in his complaining phase. He claims none of his friends are in his classes and he doesn't get to sleep in anymore. Teenagers....UGH!!! He is playing football again this year so he is enjoying that and he is happy that all of his classes are right by his locker so he doesn't have to carry numerous books all over the school. Again...teenagers...UGH!!!
Last weekend we went camping in Apple Canyon Lake with friends for the last summer vacation trip. It was alot of fun and the weather was perfect. It has finally cooled off here in Illinois. We have spent most of this summer in a heat wave and drought. Our poor grass looks so dead. But the weekend was perfect. Our friends have a pontoon boat so we went on the lake for the day and went tubing and just relaxed. It was great spending some time away together with friends!

Wow August has begun!
I can not believe that it is already August 1st. This summer has just flown by. The kids go back to school in a couple of weeks and we still have so much to do. We haven't even started school shopping yet..ugh! I only say "ugh" because July was such a black cloud month for us. I am happy that it is August for that reason...I'm hoping that the horrible black cloud that was over our family is gone...knock on wood. Have you ever had one of those periods of time where just everything went wrong and it seemed like things just wouldn't get better and the hole you were in had no sign of light...that's how July was. I do thank God for watching over us in July (it was that bad) and keeping my family safe. I know that God and a lot of positive energy will make August a great month!

WOW!!! It has been one crazy month.
J's team went to the State Championship and WON!!!! That was a crazy weekend. We were in a heat wave with temps going over 100. Those poor girls were so hot but luckily they kept drinking water and no one got sick from the heat.
Next...onto Nationals. J's team ended in 5th place in Nationals! Out of 60 teams they placed 5th! GREAT JOB to the entire team. They played phenomenal!!!! I am so proud of J. This was her first year on a travel team and to go to Nationals is such an accomplishment. On another great note they were ranked #1 in our state prior to going to Nationals.
Previously I mentioned about gift bags we had to put together to give away to another team at Nationals. I decided to do a koozie. I found purple koozies at Michael's and then used white vinyl for the lettering.
Not bad. I like the way they turned out. :)
MJ also finished his baseball season. Now everyone has about 2 weeks off before football and fall softball starts. And in one month school starts. Whew...seems like they just ended the school year and we are already going back. It has been a crazy summer!!!!

(This koozie is purple but for some reason my camera flash is making it look blue.)
