How to Train a Dragon Review
Well it's just me and the kids tonight. Hubby went out with his best friend to celebrate their bdays. Hubby turned 30 on wednesday and Hubby's friend turns 30 next week. Hubby was really looking forward to it. So me and the two kids are watching movies. Just finished "How to Train a Dragon". We all loved it. I would definitly recommend it as the movie to watch. My youngest is allmost 3 and the movie was a little scary for him, but my nine year old and myself loved it. So i would recommend it for ages 4 and up.

My Favorite Websites
OK, here are the websites I cannot live without:
1. www.myspace.com
-This is how I keep in touch with a lot of my friends.
-I also love to play sority life and yoville on there
2. www.facebook.com
-This is how I keep in touch with my friends that aren't on myspace
-I love the scavenger hunt and hatchlings applications
3. www.powerpets.com
-I love this site. It is kind of like webkinz type thing, though you don't have to buy anything to play on it, and it is a bit more involved.
-I have been playing on this site for years, so I over a million power bucks. I think it is the only place online or offline that I don't have to worry how much money I spend. lol
4. www.webkinz.com
-Ok, the whole reason I got on here was cause of my daughter. She has tons of webkinz and I wanted to be involved in her online activities with hovering, you know what I mean? So when I came across a bogo for webkinz i got her another one and picked up one for myself.
-Though I have to admit, I kind of enjoy it!
5. www.freestufftimes.com
-Ok, I love free stuff. Who doesn't? I even run my own freebie group. But this site is one of the best. I love it!
6. www.giveawayoftheday.com
-Another freebie site right? Well everyday this place gives away a different type of computer software. I have got all kinds of useful things from them. My favorite is the photo morphing software.
7. www.spiralfrog.com
-A free, legal, music download site. They've got tons of stuff to choose from! My favorite type of music is country, and it is actually pretty difficult to find free country mp3 downloads, not here though!
8. http://majman.net/fly_loader.html
-Ok, this is gross and disgusting. It is also very addictive. It is a virtual flyswatter flash game. The point is to swat as many flys as you can as quick as you can. It's a good time killer
9. http://www.i-am-bored.com/
-Ok, if you are bored as the web address suggests, this is the best place ever! They've got videos, games, pictures, etc... All kinds of stuff and the are updated throughout the day, everyday, so you pretty much never run out of something to check out on here.
10. http://www.conceptlab.com/simulator/
-This is weird, stupid, addictive, and interesting all in one. How many websites can do that for you? It is a simulation game, simulating if you worked at McDonalds.
Ok, now that you see where i spend most of my time online, you can see that I have issues. lol
So if anybody has a link to free online therapy, send it my way!!!

Time Marches On.
The baby is finally in his own room! He is 13 months old. First I kept in our room longer due to his heart monitor, but he was ready to be in his own room. So we cleaned out the storage room and turned it into his bedroom.
It is so great!!! I can roll around in bed with having to worry about waking up the baby!!! Two nights ago was the first night he was in there. He woke up at 3am and it took me till almost 5am to get him back to sleep. Last night though he slept through the whole night!!
One one hand, I am so very excited. But on the other I am a bit saddened to realize that my baby is not really a baby anymore. He is a toddler and he grows more everyday. Heck, my daughter is almost 8 yrs old!
I tell her I am going to stop feeding her so she will stop growing (a joke of course) and she laughs and says, "Mom, you can't do that. I'll just starve to death".
I know, even if we don't want it to:

10 Thing I can't live without
10 Things I can't live without
(well i probably could, but I don't want to)
1. Mints
I cannot stand to have bad breath. I am literally addicted to mints. I go through almost a pack a day sometimes
2. My computer/Internet
It is my lifeline to the rest of the world
3. My family
I do not know what I would do without them
4. My comfy around the house sweat pants
There is just something about coming home and putting them on that just oozes relaxation
5. Music
It is the spice of life
6. Garlic salt
I love this spice, I add it to almost everything I eat. (now you see why I have the mint addiction right? lol)
7. Books
I love to read. It is one of my favorite past times
8. My camera
I love to take pictures. Thank goodness for digital cameras, other wise I would probably be going through two or three rolls of film a day!
9. My girls
I have met some amazing women lately thanks to the internet. And even though I don't know these ladies in real life, I don't know what I would do without them. They are my best friends.
10. My memory
I love looking back on events throughout my life. Births, Marriages, heck, even some very interesting family vacations! I have to say that the family road trip to south carolina for my brother's graduation from the Marine corp was absolutey hilarous! But that is a story for another time.

Photography and me


OK, I'm really interested in becoming a photographer of sorts. Though I'm not sure if my skill is anywhere near good.
Above are two of my favorites that I have taken. The first I call, "A close up with Ben"
It is of a cat names Benny that my Aunt owns.
The second I call, "A Portrait of a Squirrel gone bad"
It is of a squirrel that I took a picture of on my honeymoon.
I plan to add some new pictures every week or so now to help improve my skill. Just wait and see what I come up with next!

The weather around here.
I just wanted to share with you all why I am in such a hurry for spring to get here. I took this picture about a week and a half ago during the ice storm. As you can see by the yellow building, the picture was not taken in black and white. It was also taken in the middle of the day, yet look how dark it was. That was the ice that just now has melted. Well most of it anyway.
COME ON SPRING!!
