So many things.......

So many things have happened since I last had a chance to post anything....and I don't have long now.
But - there are a few things I want to mention so I don't forget about them, or when they happened. I like being able to use my blog as a timeline for reference....

Brittni just got back from Boston.  She's never flown before - so this was a first. They went for Rob's work. The company he works for was nice enough to fly them both out there & put them up for a week. It's an experience she'll never forget & I am so happy for her. My little girl has really grown up.

Eddy & Desiree are having............A GIRL!!!!!  At her last doctors appointment they told her if she didn't have her before then, they will induce her on Dec. 7th.  Wanna know something crazy?  Hunter was born Dec 8th, 2009,  Davin was born Dec 9th 2011 & BROOKLYNN LEANN will be born Dec 7th, 2012.
So we'll have 3 grandbabie's birthdays in a row in December, then Christmas immediately after that - wow!

We had a 70th Birthday part for Big David.  SO many people showed up! It was a lot of work, but since he'd never had a birthday party before, David wanted to make it special.

And - WE celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary June 30th.  David threw me a surprise party at Beaver Lake.  SOOOO many of our friends and family came & brought stuff & really helped David pull it off.
He took me for a boat ride, and when we got back, all our friends & family were standing on the bank cheering, and they'd hung a huge banner up that said Happy 25th Anniversary David & Tammy!  In all, I think we counted about 70 people that came! And since it was over 100 degrees that weekend, that says a lot about how many people love us!

WE just got back from Cancun!  This is the 4th year in a row that we've been able to go due to contests at my work.  We had a blast, but it was just too short this time. We didn't get there til late Thursday, and our shuttle picked us up at nine Sunday morning.  Oh well, you can't complain about a totally free trip! This year they even had a contest inside the contest where we could win "Cancun Cash"...and I qualified for a free excursion for me & David, plus won the "Excellence Club" package. It is so nice to work for a company that really appreciates you.  September 7th was my 8 year anniversary.  As hard as sales are, I wouldn't be anywhere else.

David had a heart attack on August 15th.  YES - a real, live heart attack.  He had 3 blockages, and one of them was 100%.  They put stints in. It was a real scare - and if I wasn't in such a hurry I have a whole blog post I could write on that. But - bottom line is we've changed our lives - dramatically.  Low carb diet, no beer, exercise...really trying to be health conscience. And so far, so good.  One day at a time as they say.

Alrighty then, I have to get back to work.  Just wanted to put some stuff down so I wouldn't forget.
Til next time (and hopefully it won't be months from now).....me

The Post Below

I found this post below that I wrote over two months ago....as I read it I thought how funny it was that it seems so long ago....had to go ahead & post it so I won't forget that time in my life.  Just wanted to note that so it doesn't confuse anyone reading here now.

A Post

A few things to note: I'm pretty sure we will be moved out of our house in Centerton by next weekend. This weekend will be spent at the cabin hooking up the electric & start work on the water/well/pump. Dog pens need to be built. Current house needs to be packed. Utilities in current house will need to be notified at some point. And - I need my head to get wrapped around all of the changes. I think I may be in denial! But not in a bad way. I just feel like we are in limbo because we aren't settled in one place. On the weekends, we sorta live at the "Cabin". I'm calling it the cabin instead of the camper because it reminds me of our goal! During the week we live in this huge monster of a house - get up, go to work, come home, watch tv....I haven't been packing. I HAVE sold quite a bit of our furniture & stuff I don't want to store. But the packing - taking down all the pictures, packing up stuff I don't use on a day to day basis, I could be doing all of that at night, after work - but I'm not. I'm just floating along, like I have all the time in the world - I don't! But it will get done. It will all happen. It will all be okay!

Hunter-man & Peepaws First Fishing Trip

Still not able to blog like I want to, so many things are going on in our world, but alas, no home computer prevents me from sharing on here.  What I HAD to share, is that David took Hunter fishing for the first time last Saturday. He figured out real quick that a two year old is a handful, and maybe it's a little too soon to do any serious fishing with him. But it's the first of many I'm sure.  And I wanted to make sure I got it on here.
Til next time....me

I LOVE My Boys!!!

Blogging.....

Will I EVER get to blog regularly again? At this point in time, I am not so sure! We are moved into the "cabin" and it's going really really good. I LOVE it there - which surprises me. I think David does too. The one down side is that we do not have internet. Our computer is actually in storage along with most of our belongings. I have SO much to blog about - so much to say. But alas, there is no time. I thought I would be able to keep up by blogging on my lunch hour, but one thing I am finding is that if I am sitting at my desk during lunch, then I am working - so that's out. I don't know when I'll get back to it, but hopefully I will. I just wanted to check in here & let anybody who cares know - I'm still here - we're still alive. Til next time (whenever that may be).....me
