New Background

I thought I'd try a new background this month -- dark blue. I've been using the same ol' black all summer long, I really wish they'd have more selection for templates to use.......I'm so looking for something more summery or whimsical......

Happy Monday everyone!

In Memory of..........Red

In Memory of.............A dear friend of ours passed on Friday 8/8/08. While camping this weekend we found out by receiving a text about our dear friend, Red. He was a great friend who will be remembered everyday. He was owner of the Red Rock Cafe in Hellam, PA -who passed from a battle with cancer at age 51. We will miss you dearly and God Bless Rox and family during this hard time............

8-8-8

If you haven't taken notice today's date is 8-8-8, August 8th 2008 --- opening day for the BEIJING 2008 SUMMER OLYMPICS, we will miss opening ceremony but I'm sure it'll be an exciting night to watch on TV. 8-8-8 (that doesn't happen too often)
I also heard tonight after the ceremony on TV, Deal or No Deal hits a $1,000,000 million dollar winner!!!!! Wish I could watch that too, I love Howie! He is such a cutie!!!

We're going Camping

We're going camping --- and here are some photos from last year's trip in 2007 --I couldn't find my last camping trip pics at Sickman's Mill --- guess they disappeared in internet computer space somewhere. WE are hoping for a good weather weekend!

The kids (including Steve) playing and swimming in the creek, it was quite cool this year we went -at least in the water it was.

Camping

We are preparing for camping this weekend, doing last minute jobs, I have so much to get done and packages mailed before we leave on Friday --- my title word cutter machine has been down for over a week and its on overload working now that its fixed and back running, putting me even further behind on orders. We have to have laundry done and most stuff ready for packing by Thurs night cause I have to deliver almost 500 papers on Friday (filling in -again) for somebodys P.M. ROUTE, and my car will be packed full of papers, no room to prepack the car for camping until we're done delivering Friday about 5:30 or so..........

It'll be nice to get away this weekend, I think weather is looking ok, maybe a chance of thundershowers but nothing major -fingers crossed XXXXX. If its calling for rain, we won't go.
But I truly cannot afford to take a weekend off, my ebay store is so behind on shipments, so Sunday we may head home early -not sure - so I can catchup for a Monday shipment.

Have a great end of week!

what a Day!

All I can say today is WHAT A DAY!

DELIVERING OVER 700 PAPERS TODAY ON OUR PAPER ROUTE AND FOR SOMEONE ELSE. All I can say is I'm tired with only about 6 hrs sleep last night and it was a split sleep from 10pm-1:45a.m. and than again from 7:30a.m. til 10:30a.m. --- not much sleep. I'll be heading to bed tonight early.

I have a few new photos to add from our last softball game this past Friday --will upload and post those tomorrow. Have a great week!

End of Year Pizza Party

Our girls softball team(s) last night ages 10U, 12U and 16U had our annual pizza party -end of year awards ceremony and our 3rd annual Parents vs. Kids softball game. It was a fun night.
We had over 40-50 pizzas (yes, tons of them) and about 20 leftover, think they over bought this year and lots of drinks and fun foods.

I took some pics of the softball game Parents vs.Kids --- and of course the parents "allowed" the kids to win......it was fun.




The girls above are taking bats....all lined up ready to hit, they had like 30 girls (and some boys who joined in for fun) on their team vs. Parents (like 15)

Kevin up to bat while the girls in the outfield wait his huge hit.


And with all good sportsmanship -the end of the game "good game" line up for all.
