Some pics from the past couple of months!


The Easter Bunny cake! I always made this as a kid-- now I make it with my kids. They love to decorate it! They went for brown this year.... This picture is from the late 80's early 90's. Should I be bothered that my hair is just about the same now, except for the perm??
Jenny came to see me while I was in Orlando. Didn't get a dry picture!

Excited about this!! Have to go back next year!
I made a new friend at Universal....
Leah came to see too!!
My Mother's day cupcakes!


I got new flipflops for my birthday!

Ok- I think that is enough for now!! Hope you are having a great week. Everyday seems like the weekend for me now that the kids are out of school!

My {almost} Adventure!

I know, I know... It has been a while. But I am sure all 3 of you understand-- life gets busy, I get lazy--
So any way-- We have been busy with soccer, choir concerts (and trips to Orlando!), Scrap Etc. events, Mother's Day, birthdays (well, my birthday).... It has been a good couple of months. I have been subbing a lot, but still no job yet. But I need to remember that I am not in control of that-- I need to trust in God more. He knows what I will be doing Aug. 6th (first day back for teachers...)And that is all that should matter. Remind me of that if needed!!
So, I am sure you are wondering "What adventure, Carol?" So let me tell you!! I was at the Scrap Etc. Event, and one morning as I was getting ready, my roommate, Lisa and I heard a lot of noise out in the lobby of the hotel. Our room over looked the lobby, so we peeked outside only to see a ton of Paparazzi! Who could they be following?? So I lean out the window a little to look, and I see Robert Pattinson-- you know- Cedric Diggory and Edward Cullen!! How awesome! We didn't even know he was going to be there!! So Lisa and I hurry and get dressed and head out to see what we can see and eat breakfast. When we get to the lobby, we didn't see him, so figured he was gone. We order an overpriced hotel breakfast and sit down to eat. After a few minutes, guess who walks by??? Yep- Edward!!( That is how I like to think of him....)He is with a girl, and they go sit down at a table not too far from us!! We are so excited, but soon realize we BOTH left our cameras in the room!! Oh No!! But then I remember I have my phone, and a crappy cell phone pic is better than none, so we get up the nerve and head over to his table. I am just a few feet away, my mind going over what I will say to him, then, I roll over and see the clock. It is 6:51 AM. Crap it! It was a dream! But so real! SO Dang it-- I am not at a Scrap Etc. Event-have to wait for October for that. I am not eating breakfast with Lisa, but I will have lunch with her and Virginia next week, and no meeting Edward or Cedric for me. ever....:( {Lucy-- If you could arrange that meeting for October and make my dream come true, I will be your best friend!}

Ok-- more real stuff later. But I had to share my dream. Good night!

Not much going on.....

Not much to blog about... I have been subbing {no more poop or vomit!} It has been raining like crazy, and I am homesick, as usual. Maybe I should have gone home over spring break. I am kinda sad. But life [school- work- soccer practice- scrapbooking- LOST :-)- laundry {oh the laundry...}and dinner ] goes on.

MOVIES!

I love movies! I saw 3 today.... I really {heart} the dollar theater!!
I saw The Uninvited... very good!, then went back with Hannah and saw Bride Wars... worth a buck! And then, for the 4th time.... Twilight!! I love it, even though some Edward's facial expressions really crack me up when it wasn't supposed to be funny!And the bad acting sticks out more and more each time I see it. But that's OK!

I am going back tomorrow to see Bolt and Bedtime stories with the kids.

Have a great night and a good week.... I will because it is SPRING BREAK!!!
This is the first time that we haven't gone to FL or to NC. And I am not sure how I feel about it. It will be nice to just hang out and get stuff done around the house, but I am really homesick (it doesn't go away) and would LOVE to hang out with my parents,sisters, nieces and nephews. But I will be home in June.... My 20th high school reunion is this summer. I am that old. WOW.


I have lost 7 of those 9 pounds I mentioned a while ago. It should be more, but besides the movies, I also love chocolate and Dr. Pepper. I gave them up for about a week, now I have decided to cut back.But it is hard especially since Dove truffle eggs are in stores!! And we have left over cookie cake from Hannah's birthday party calling my name.
Ok -this has been all over the place.... I am going to bed!
