Hello girls!

Hi there! I am taking a minute from my yard sale to stop in and say Hi:) Its so warm and wonderful outside; I have enjoyed spending 7 hours a day outside, sitting in the sun, listening to the birds and watching my babies run through the sprinkler... oh yeah and making some $$! My yard sale business has been slow this year but so far I've made almost $150!! Yahoo! Sold a LOT of old clothes; now we can get some new summer clothes!!

I'll be back tomorrow for Scrapbook Sunday!!

Enjoy your weekend too!

never enough time...

Hi girls! Just wanted to drop in this morning. I am having my annual yard sale tomorrow and Saturday. Then we are off to my in-laws cottage on Sunday to celebrate Memorial Day with a cookout. Monday, Brian and I are taking the boys shopping for more summer clothes; these kids are outgrowing everything! So lets hope I make some good money at my sale the next 2 days; cause momma would like some new bermuda shorts too!!

I might not be back to post till "Scrapbook Sunday" before we take off for the lake. But I want to wish you all a wonderful weekend:) I hope you all are having nice weather; its gotten hot here in Indiana-- 83 degrees today, thank goodness there is a lovely BREEZE!!

Chat with ya soon ♥

My 1st Mostly Wordless Wednesday!

These things like "Mostly Wordless Wednesday" always seemed fun, so I joined in!

Here is my youngest at almost one and a half years old!
Dreaming of a field goal... touchdown...?
He is a big boy now- 2 years old, 3 feet tall and 38 lbs!!
He WILL be our LINEBACKER!!

I love to get pics of the kids when they are sleeping;
you never know what they will be doing:)

P-A-R-T-Y time!

Hi girls! Whew, its been a busy day! I am looking forward to tonite... my best friend Valerie was chosen to host an American Idol party from Houseparty.com. Tonite is the finale on American Idol which I have mentioned that I am addicted to. I ♥ Adam Lambert, the rocker guy above!! But... I have recently really began to like Kris Allen, the cute lil swooner (shown below). They both are very talented and unique in their musical abilites!!

At the party tonite, a sales rep from a Ford dealership in the area here is bringing by a 2010 Ford Fusion over to her house for us to test drive!! The Ford Fusion is the car shown in all the American Idol videos this season!!

She also received some party favors to share with us. We have to "vote" for who we want to win! We'll also watch the finale, snack and chit-chat too!

Should be a fun night! I'll post some pics tomorrow.

If you'd like a HEALTH update on me, please read my recent post on my other blog, PHAT BOTTOMED GIRL. I have an "UPDATE" from the doctor!!

If you watch Idol, who has your vote... Adam or Kris??

Be back tomorrow...

My 1st BLUE Monday!

Today is my FIRST Blue Monday post! Please head over to Smiling Sally to find links to even more gals and their Blue Monday posts:) On Blue Monday posts, you can show photos of pretty, funny or even UGLY! blue things in your home!

Since I am the only girl in a home with 3 other "boys" (well, one man too!), I know I have LOTS of blue around here!!

My 2 year old Gage wears his blue very cute on this day, enjoying a morning ba-ba; which I am trying to break him of!

To respect the manliness in our home, I decorated our bathroom with a Nautical look; so here are some blue lighthouse wall hanging from in there.

Here is my oldest son Gavin's blue (and yellow) room with his new BLUE outer space bedding that was a birthday gift last year!

Here is my BLUE watering can planter on my front porch; it now has flowers inside of it this year:)

When my little Gage turned 2 last month, we had a Blue's Clues birthday party for him! Talk about some BLUE!!

These sweet blue decoupage angel ornaments were a Goodwill find for my Christmas tree this past holiday season:) Can you believe in just less than 7 months, it will be Christmas again? Where has 2009 gone??

Thanks for joining me today:) This was fun; I have been wanting to join Blue Monday's for a couple weeks now and am glad that I jumped on board!

Hugs,
Noelle ♥

SCRAPBOOK SUNDAY: KITTY TALES!

Welcome to Scrapbook Sunday! This week I am showing a "Kitty Tales" Scrapbook that my oldest son created for pics of our cats!! He is a cat lover and this "project" was something to occupy him while mommy worked on her scrapbooks!! LOL He actually enjoyed working on his little album that my mom had bought for him;
don't you love the fuzzy cat tail that is on the side of it??

I "cropped" the photos for him so they would fit on the pages in his album, which is a 4x6. He added all the stickers on his own and did his own writing too. I think he made this 2-3 years ago so he needed a lot of help spelling too.

This one is my favorite! I love that he added the little pacifier sticker to baby Maxie's mouth!!

Bath time and our cats look like drowned rats! haha

He wrote "I love cats" and drew his own cat- awww!

Above is a rocket he created out of paper and added a little pic of Maxie to it! My Gavin is pretty darn creative, eh??

Yes, Miss Maddie does act like a queen on a throne when she lays on CLEAN LAUNDRY!!

This page is so funny! Gavin wrote "Pee You" on this one because Maddie is sitting there with her mouth open! LOL Do your cats do this? When they smell something they don't like, our cats will sit there with their mouths wide open!!

So cute and sweet, little Gavin cuddling Maxie when she was a kitten!!
