Another Hot Day at the PooL

Here are some photos from another day at the PooL.


Taylor just had to take a photo of herself, it actually came out, didn't think it would.


Penny and Travis say cheese!


The girls doing their nails after we got out!


And believe it or not, a photo of me in my swimming suit, yuck! This is what i'm best at.

ChiLLin in the PooL

Here is what we did yesterday. Chilled in the pooL. Here is Haley and Taylor having fun. We plan to do the same thing today too.

It just a relaxing summer day yesterday, very hot and humid as the rain/thunderstorms did chase us home, but we got a good 2 hours or more in the pooL.

Hopefully today we'll have better luck. We are planning to meet my best friend and her kids at my mom's house to swim again. I think we'll soon be water logged out from swimming this week. But.........what is summer about? Stay CooL everyone!

3 Generations

3 Generations

Taylors Grandma sent me some photos which I requested because we don't have any of her and her great-grandma, here are some photos of 3 generations, They turned out so great!

Granny, Taylor & Grandma (above)

ReLaxing in the PooL, love to do it! and not get my hair wet! Laugh!

Poconos Raceway

Poconos Raceway Trip

Steve and Greg went to the Poconos on Saturday to watch a lower version of Nextel. It was a class lower than Busch but they were able to get in and see the Trucks for the Nextel race which is today, Sunday. Plus, experience a little bit of the racetrack and racing with a little less crowd. They had fun and here are some photos Steve took:

My Favorite Bartender

This is my favorite bartender Tarrah.........isn't she so cute? We went out last night & just happened to have the camera in my purse, started flashing some pics.........she'll love me for this one! Love ya' girL!!

Last Softball Game

Last Softball Game of the Year

Taylors last game of the year was yesterday Wed. July 19th, finally we got the game in after numerous cancellations from thunderstorms and weather issues.

Here are some photos to share:

Taylor being coached on by Coach Caldwell, the coach for the older girls.

My 1st photo of the night (above), and I got the catch by Taylor. I was so excited that my digital camera even caught the action photo. Great catch!!!!

3-5-7-9 who do we thinkS mighty fine? WILDCATS!

The girls at the end of the game getting ready to cheer the other team and say thanks!

Good year Wildcats!

Scaredy Cat

I guess Smokey, our Cat, was afraid of a huge thunderstorm we had earlier tonight. He always hides wherever he can find a hiding place. Unfortunately, since we put our window AC's in we close the upstairs bedroom doors and he cannot hide under the beds or upstairs. There is NOWHERE downstairs for him to hide except under the sofa, and he gets stuck and cannot get back out.

Here I put him under the blanket on the sofa and he stayed put but found himself a peek hole to see out, what a SCAREDY CAT! Now we know where that name comes from!

Poor Smokey!!!

Last Softball Game of the Year

Last Softball Game tonight, yeehaw! Will have results and more photos tomorrow or later tonight! Due to a bad thunderstorm with hail and high winds, heavy rains tonight - the game was rescheduled and cancelled after sitting in our cars for 20 mins hoping for a break in the storm, not!

Vacation Trip 2006

Here is our Vacation Photos from this year. We just got back from Kings Dominion Va. Boy! we had fun but it was hot & humid.

Taylor took a friend along, Lynsi which was a blessing so she had something to do all weekend while we camped at the campgrounds. We rented a cabin, with AC of course, I'm not crazy camping in 90 degree weather ya' know. The KOA campgr0und in Fredericksburg Va was so nice. The Swimming PooL was great, almost right next to our cabin, the showers/bathrooms were practically brand new and very clean. WE had a great stay there.

We visited Kings Dominion amusement park about 30 mins from the campground and had a 2 day pass for the rides and Water Works Park. It was great to come home though and sleep in our own beds. It was a long weekend but we had a great time, here are some photos I'd like to share:

Taylor Learns to Mow

Taylor learns to mow today, but of all days --- 90 degrees and humid? Poor thing, the ice water is ready to go when she comes in........How hot!

The FinaL Countdown

Just a Daily Entry

Nothing new to put on my blog the past 2 days so just journalling today. Got up this morning feeling a little on the nasty side, we went out last night and stayed out too late. Of course, we act like we're 21 again and we're not. But we had fun! Got some grocery shopping done, a few orders and even ate some KFChicken. ummmmmm yum!

The band plays tonight locally, not sure if we're going or not. Actually Steve will go but the location is so small and I don't care for that place too much, no place to sit, usually standing room only so I must stay home or head to the Red rock for a bit. Who knows. Its been a quiet day doing really nothing.

Trying to prepare for our mini-vacation trip this week, we leave on Thursday and come home Sunday to Kings Dominion in Va. Hopefully the weather will hold out.

Have a nice weekend!

Just Live it Up

Just Live it up and be yourself. Why not!!!!

Summer is here and here are some things I'd like to do before summer is over:

1. Throw another party in my back yard, why not - we've already done 2 and that was before July 1st.

2. Make some jello shooters

3. Take a weekend trip, just Steve & I.

4. Gamble in a casino

5. Go skinny dipping just once, who cares where!!!!

6. See my friend Shana at least once, yes! at least once. I miss her.

7. Bleach my hair again, actually that's getting done this week or next.

8. Get a pedicure, have the gift certificate, just have to do it.

9. Get into a bikini --------YEAH RIGHT! that's a laugh.

10. Treat my daughter to a manicure, pedicure and pampering her for one day.....just her and I.

11. Oh, yeah and throw Steve overboard somewhere in the ocean, (that's a joke but thought you'd like it)*

We know # 9 won't be done, so just for laughs...............have a great summer!

Happy 4th of July

After a Night of Drinking

For Party GirLs onLy: If your not a party girl , do not read!!!!!

THINGS CRAZY GIRLS LIKE TO DO AFTER A NIGHT OF DRINKING

1. I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHERE MY PURSE IS

2. I BELIEVE THAT DANCING WITH MY ARMS OVERHEAD AND WIGGLING MY BUTT WHILE YELLING "WOO-HOO!" IS TRULY THE SEXIEST DANCE MOVE AROUND

3. I'VE SUDDENLY DECIDED I WANT TO KICK SOMEONE'S ASS AND HONESTLY BELIEVE I COULD DO IT TOO

4. IN MY LAST TRIP TO PEE, I REALIZE I NOW LOOK MORE LIKE A HOMELESS HOOKER THAN THE GODDESS I WAS JUST FOUR HOURS AGO

5. I DROP MY 3:00 A.M. VILLAGE MARKET SANDWICH ON THE FLOOR (WHICH I'M EATING EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT THE LEAST BIT HUNGRY), PICK IT UP AND CARRY ON EATING IT

6. I START CRYING AND TELLING EVERYONE I SEE THAT I LOVE THEM SOOOOO MUCH

7. I GET EXTREMELY EXCITED AND JUMP UP AND DOWN EVERY TIME A NEW SONG PLAYS BECAUSE "OH MY GOD! I JUST LOVE THIS SONG!" IT SUDDENLY BECOMES YOUR "JAM"

8. I'VE FOUND A DEEPER/SPIRITUAL SIDE TO THE GEEK SITTING NEXT TO ME

9. THE MAN I'M FLIRTING WITH USED TO BE MY 5TH GRADE TEACHER

10. THE URGE TO TAKE OFF ARTICLES OF CLOTHING, STAND ON A TABLE AND SING OR DANCE BECOMES STRANGELY OVERWHELMING

11. MY EYES JUST DON'T SEEM TO WANT TO STAY OPEN ON THEIR OWN SO I KEEP THEM HALF CLOSED AND THINK IT LOOKS EXOTICALLY SEXY

12. I'VE SUDDENLY TAKEN UP SMOKING AND BECOME REALLY GOOD AT IT

13. I YELL AT THE BARTENDER, WHO (I THINK) CHEATED ME BY GIVING ME JUST LEMONADE, BUT THAT'S JUST BECAUSE I CAN NO LONGER TASTE THE GIN

14. I THINK I'M IN BED, BUT MY PILLOW FEELS STRANGELY LIKE THE KITCHEN FLOOR

15. EVERY PERSON THAT I WALK BY I, I MUST KNOW THEM SOMEHOW, AND ENGAGE IN A CONVERSATION BEGINING WITH HEY, I KNOW YOU"

16. I TAKE MY SHOES OFF BECAUSE I BELIEVE IT'S THEIR FAULT THAT I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WALKING STRAIGHT

17. DRUNK DIALING/INSTANT MESSAGING ALL YOUR EX BF'S AND FORMER CRUSHES, YOU WONDER WHY THEY DON'T ANSWER EITHER!?

18. I START EVERY CONVERSATION WITH A BOOMING, "DON'T TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY BUT..."

19. I FAIL TO NOTICE THAT THE TOILET LID'S DOWN WHEN I SIT ON IT.

20. MY HUGS BEGIN TO RESEMBLE WRESTLING TAKE-DOWN MOVES.

21. I'M TIRED SO I JUST SIT ON THE FLOOR (WHEREVER I HAPPEN TO BE STANDING) AND TAKE A QUICK NAP.

22. I BEGIN LEAVING THE BUTTONS OPEN ON MY BUTTON FLY PANTS TO CUT DOWN ON THE TIME I'M IN THE BATHROOM AWAY FROM MY DRINK

the Short Do

How about this short do? Taylor came home from the hair dresser last night as Steve took her and will never happen again, and this is the results? yes or no? I didn't care for it at first but its growing on me I guess.


Call her Tyler for a while, no just joking! Joke from her cousin Katie, she's still my cutest little pumpkin!

Ugly Toes

Just a friendly reminder, it's that time of the year again.

Please raise your BIG TOE and repeat after me:

And for God's Sake if your second toe is longer than your big toe you should have some cosmetic foot surgery before you EVEN THINK OF WEARING ANY TYPE OF OPEN TOE SHOE....

As a member, I pledge to follow The Rules when I wear sandals and other open-toe shoes:

1. I promise to always wear sandals that fit. My toes will not hangover and touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the sides and tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.

2. I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact and chip-free. I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.

3. I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow.

4. I will shave the hairs off my big toe.

5. I won't wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend/co-worker/mother/sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it there.

6. If a strap breaks, I won't duct-tape, pin, glue or tuck it back into place hoping it will stay put. I will get my shoe fixed or toss it -- no matter how much it hurts.

7. I will not live in corn denial; rather I will lean on my goodfriend Dr. Scholl's if my feet need him.

8. I will resist the urge to buy jelly shoes at Payless for the low,low price of $4.99 even if my feet are small enough to fit into the kids' sizes. This is out of concern for my safety, and the safety of others. No one can walk properly when standing in a pool of sweat, and I would hate to take someone down with me as I fall and break my ankle.

9. I will take my toe ring off toward the end of the day if my toes swell and begin to look like Vienna sausages.

10. I will be brutally honest with my girlfriend/sister/co-worker when she asks me if her feet are too ugly to wear sandals. Someonehas to tell her that her toes look like they've been dragged behind her car on the way to work and no sandal in the world is going to make her feet look good.

11. I will promise if I wear flip flops, that I will ensure they actually flip and flop, making the correct noise while walking and I will swear NOT to slide or drag my feet while wearing them.

12. I will promise to go to my local beauty school at least once per season and have a real pedicure (they are about $20 and worth EVERY penny). I say spend another $20.00 and get an even better one.

And finally . . .

13. I will promise to throw away any white/off-white sandals that show signs of wear . . . nothing is tackier than dirty white sandals .. . .

For all our sakes, please don't keep this to yourself - pass it on to all your girlfriends! :)

Happy Birthday Corinne

Happy Birthday Corinne!

Hope your day was filled with smiles and laughs and good things for you!

We miss you Lots!

An Old Friend

An Old friend ...........I found an old friend of mine after 17 years . You'll never guess where, so I'll tell you --- MYSPACE.COM

Very strange place but you can put your HIGH SCHOOL and graduation year in, and they will list everyone there, so I did a search under the year 1989 graduation and she came up. Although it took me 2 days to believe it, cause her photo is totally not the Dawn I remember from school. So, after my mom and I looked and stared at it, compared it to our year book grad photo, I decided to email her. In 1 day I heard back and IT WAS HER!!!!! WOW!

That's so great, now we are exchanging emails and talking about our past 17 years.....what a long time to catchup, that's oK, cause we met in 1st grade and we were best buddy's all through grade school and even into high school, we kind of never stopped talking but around 10th grade we kind of parted a little bit, and weren't such great friends the last 2 years in school but we still talked and all. Haven't seen her or heard from her since June 7th, 1989 and now we're email chatters. So cooL.

Brings back memories again!

She is doing so well and lives right here in the same city as I did, we never left York. So, maybe someday we can meet and chat face to face.........what are good friends for, even after 17 years of being apart.
I'm so glad I found her!

Baltimore Orioles Game

Baltimore Orioles Vs. Washington Nationals and we won! Orioles that is.
Steve & Taylor went to the game on Friday night in Balitmore Maryland. Taylor has a blast, as some photos below to share. They didn't get home til almost 12:30 midnight that is. It was kids night and Steve's been wanting to take her to a game.

MySpace.com

I finally did it, I have a page on Myspace.com thanks to a friend who talked me into it. Tarrah a good friend we see on weekends when we go out talked me into it. So take a peek at my page and view some photos I will update weekly or when I get a chance, having a weblog and myspace pages is going to keep me busy busy!

Hanging out at the PooL

We hung at the pooL yesterday at my parents house with friends. Taylor and Bridget (below) were constantly getting water in their ears, every photo I took had one of them trying to get water out of their ears. It was soooooo HOT! It finally got humid here and we spent about 4 hours tanning and swimming. They had a blast!

Yes! Here is me, Taylor took this photo of me in my swimsuit in the pool. Probably the only photo you'll see of me on the internet, geez - cannot believe I'm putting this picture up. But here it is - me sunbathing and chillin' in the pooL!

1st Day of Summer

Its the 1st day of Summer and its hot. No humidity yet, but will be arriving by tomorrow in the low 90's and very HOT tomorrow, it sure feels like summer now!

I think we'll be spending the day inside staying cooL today as Taylor has a softball game tonight and heading to the pooL tomorrow.

Some photos to share below were from the other week when my cousins kids were chilling int he pool, although quite chilly water that day, they are kids and still got in! SUMMER IS HERE!

700 series, finally!

Steve finally bowled his 1st 700 series tonight at his league game. Yeah! for him. He was so excited and will see his name up flashing throughout the week on the flashing lights board at the bowling alley.

He was all excited when he came home tonight and I'm glad, something he needed to boost him up!

He almost bowled a 300 game tonight twice too. He had 9 strikes in a row, ending the 10th frame with a 9 and a spare........that's really disappointing but still a GREAT GAME! CONGRATS!

Balloon Fest 2006

BaLLoon Fest 2006

Today we went to John Rudy Park for Balloon Fest '06. This was the 1st year we went. Our band played there too which drew us there to begin with.

I included some photos below of the band playing in the 90 degree/humid weather. I felt so bad for them, it was so hot. Our neighbor told us at 5:00 it was 97 degrees. wow! I'm still trying to cooL down and I've been home now for 2 hours.

FDP (above) playing their tunes as a hot air ballon in the background starts to blow up.

Although that hot air balloon in the background never made it in the air, it fell over and they finally started to fold it up at 8:00 when we left.

Happy Fathers' Day Dad

Happy Fathers Day Dad

The latest craze in Scrapbooking.......TEAR BEARS. How cute they are! More designs to come.

EEG Day

Well, its only 7:22 a.m. and we've already been up and about for 3 hours. What a long morning it'll be. Taylor has her EEG Test today at the hospital for her seizures, and we (or she) is only allowed 1/2 her normal sleep time last night. After staying up til 12:30 (midnight time) and getting 4 1/2 hours sleep, we're dragging........She's already been on the computer for an hour this morning, watched TV and doing chores now. Once we return this morning, should only take us 2 hours at the most, we'll be heading to bed for naps. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.................

I'm ready for bed now.....ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

That TripLe PLaY!

Yeah! we beat the Hellam Sparks, that's all that mattered last night at the softball game. We beat them 6-8, very close game. This is our or should I say "my" rival team.......we cannot allow the Hellam Sparks to beat the EYARC WildCats. Cannot happen. Although it almost did last night. oops!

Taylor had a triple out.......yes! a triple out, very rare in softball or anywhere. She caught a fly ball playing 1st base, then ran to 1st base and got the runner out, afterwards throwing the ball to the pitcher or to the 3rd baseman, not sure on that one because it was so dramatic and exciting, and they got the 3rd baseman out that ran home.............yeah girls! Either way, it was 3 outs in 1 play.........yipee skippy! You go girls! What a great game!

Sam Lewis State Park

We all got together yesterday, Sunday to visit with family and friends. My cousins are up to visit from Florida and South Carolina for the week. No better place to meet than Sam Lewis State Park where the kids can run free and adults can sit and chat. We had a great turnout. More than expected showed up to eat and visit.

Here are some pictures of the kids on the see-saw. They had a great time on the rocks (or as they called 'em the "mountains.") and on the playground area.

It was a slightly windy day but we had a great time and all went well...........we are so glad to see our famiLy as some of them we haven't seen since 2001 and the kids below, well.........3 out of 4 I haven't ever met, what cutie pies!

Shelby, Annabelle and Austin play on the see saw here to the left.

Dougray is on the other side laughing on as the other 3 keep him from touching the ground.

The New Oxford Monsters!

Click here to view our website for the York County Junior Girls Softball League.




I call this team the New Oxford Monsters that we played last night, wish I had photos of them, but only 2 photos of Bridget (pitching) and Taylor (fielding) came out. I think those girls were growing too fast or too old for this team level 12 & under??? We all wondered. They were very tall and larger than our girls. But we lost, although the girls played quite well despite 2 of our pitchers getting knocked down at home plate cause the other team wouldn't slide..........what an interesting ball game. All in all the girls did well, we'll be prepared next time! Go WILDCATS!





Our game records stand as 1 win & 3 losses.

We survived!

Well, we survived the 1st day off school, was a little tough morning starting out but we made it. And how many more to go? Taylor asked me yesterday "Is everyday going to be like this throughout the summer?" and I answered "yep, get use to it." I guess she wants to be entertained and do things everyday but that's not possible. I have too much to do at home like eBay orders which I'm still so much behind on.

So, we filled out the playground play park program application yesterday and its going in the mail. I wasn't going to sign her up since she's older now but I asked her and her eyes lit up like "yes, yes." It s a park program only a few blocks away that the YMCA sponsers for 2 months in the summer from 9am-12pm every morning Monday thru Thursday. We'll try it out. I'm just afraid she's too old for it, but we'll see. Ya' never know until you try.

The bad part is the neighborhood kids are not home, parents work therefore they are too young to stay home by themself so they are off somewhere at a sitters and Taylor is home with no one to play with. We'll make it through, once the summer gets hot we'll be swimming and probably doing some activities here and there throughout the week.

6-6-06

Today is 6-6-6. What a strange day. Did you ever think about the day 6-6-06? Will it be a good or bad day? Is this just an omen or does it really mean something?

My social security # has the 666 in it and I'm still here living a normal life, bad luck? Well, not the best but I'm getting by.

What does it really mean? anything at all? the devil/satan/end of the world? Do you believe or not? Something to think about.

We will all know after today if we're all still here..........6-6-6 I don't think I'd want to be born on this day knowing I'd have to say my birthdate as 666 when someone asks. That's something to be grateful about. I don't believe in this terrible # but some do.

2 more days of SchooL !!!

Did I hear 2 more days of schooL? Yikes! The kids have only 2 more days of school or should I say 1 1/2 days because tomorrow they have early dismissal, which I never understood.....why not just have off? Guess they have to get that 180th day of school in.

I'm not ready to be off this summer with Taylor home saying "I'm bored", "What is there to do?", "Can I go here?", or "Can we go swimming today?"

But I think it'll be interesting.......my 1st summer off in years. Taylor has 2 weeks of fun activities /day camp we signed her up for, that's a little time to be occupied. And we are planning our vacation to Kings dominion amusement park for mid-July.

This year went so fast, and just to think she starts MIDDLE SCHOOL NEXT YEAR! YIKES again.

Our Yearly Yard SaLe

Our Yearly Community Yard SaLe was on Saturday (Yesterday), we spent all day watching our customers simply go crazy on things we no longer needed or junk.

The day started out very gloomy with rain. We put out some furniture, stuff that really didn't matter if it got wet. And waited on the other stuff until the rain tapered off.

We sat and sat and waited and waited until about 9:30 or so and finally the rain broke free and we were able to get it all out.

Watching people walk by with umbrellas, only the dedicated yard salers I guess. A few of them looking at us saying "Oh, a little rain won't hurt us." Nutty people out there.

Each year it rains on us somehow. We have lived here for 6 years or so and only 1 good year for the yard sale so far. Every other year it rains or is ugly weather. What bad luck. We sold alot of furniture and junk and we were happy in the end. Now I just have 6 bags of clothes to take to the salvation army dropoff today........I will not save clothes no more, its GOTTA GO!

Taylors Track & FieLd DaY

Taylors Track & FieLd Meet

Tuesday May 30th

Taylor had their track and field meet on Tuesday and of course it was so stinkin' HOT! those poor kids were just drowning in sweat and looked miserable. If it wasn't for water bottles and squirt bottles, what would they have done? We sat for almost 2 hours and got sunburnt. It was worth it, although having to come home and jump in the shower to cooL down. I think it was like 94 degrees in the shade.

Taylor is finishing her 200m Dash run (above) and did very well. I'm proud of her, it was a run 1/2 the track size. I know I couldn't have done it.

Just Looking at the kids (above) you can tell it was a miserable HOT DAY!

The girls (above) just finished their 50m dash and waiting for results. All the elementary 4th & 5th graders met at the high school track this day to compete against each other. Their are 3 elementary schools in our district and each school wore different colors (red, gold, blue) as our kids had their Kreutz Creek famous Blue shirts on. They all did a great job considering the muggy warm weather!
