Ok- so funny story!!!!

My apologies everyone! Remember my post on my son's skateboard wipe out? Well, story stands true but...pictures aren't of him. ROFLOL!!!!! When I found the pictures on the computer I was frustrated because I had been asking him to send me pictures so that I could post them on my blog. He had sent me one on his phone but it didn't turn out so good so I never posted. Then last night I found these pictures and assumed they were of his wipe out. But this morning I was looking more carefully and remembered his wreck was at night and he doesn't keep his keys on his belt loop AND he is much TANNER than in the picture. HMMMM.... guess what? One of Cory's friends had a wipe out too and those were HIS pictures! Too funny! Anyway, you can still feel sorry for Matt and the picture with the "paddle" at the bottom of the page really is of Matt.
Oh Boy- I really messed up good this time!

Can you say OUCH?

Well- All the men in my house are obsessed with their skateboards. Cory had one before we left to go to Cali but Rod and Matt both bought boards when we were there. Matt's friend Jasper had to join in the fun too. This is the collection of boards that you see as you enter my front room. Yes, It has become the MAN ROOM. It seems like every night they go out late to go boarding. Remember- we're in AZ! Nobody in their right mind would do that in the middle of the day in August!

Anyway, not long ago Matt came home pretty late (I was already in bed) wanting to know where my camera was. I was dead asleep and mumbled something incoherent. An hour later I got up because there seemed to be a lot of commotion going on downstairs for that late at night. Apparently Matt was going down a hill and went full speed into a sand bag and of course went flying. Here is the damage...





I'm not sure but I think the board won this battle!
He has now resorted to using this when he goes out...

Boys NEVER grow up! Gotta love 'em!

The winners are...

Well, choosing the winners for my Pay it Forward contest was easy! I only had 3 people enter so I don't have to feel guilty about not drawing someone! :) So, the winners are Cary, Jan and Bren! Send me your snail mail addys so I can get your goodies to you! (Bren I think I have yours LOL) Thanks! Now it's YOUR turn to Pay it Forward! Enjoy

Pay it Forward...

My sister in law Bren posted this contest and I'm all over it! You are supposed to pay it forward if you are the winner but I wanted to do it anyway-regardless of whether she draws me or not! This is a way cute contest. We all need a little reminder to do something nice for someone else every once in awhile. So- here's your opportunity...

All you do is leave a comment on my blog (to this post) and you are entered. I will draw 3 names from all the comments and mail you a surprise-something I made from the heart. If you are one of the winners, you need to then do this same contest on YOUR blog - draw 3 names and send them something (bought or handmade), and so on. In other words….Pay it forward! Does this make sense?
I will draw a winner on Monday, August 4th, 2008 and announce the winners that day!. There will be 3 winners. If you are one of the 3 winners, you are responsible for keeping this contest going. If you do not win it doesn't mean I don't love you and feel free to carry on this contest—win or lose.
Only catch? You must have a blog.
ready…
set…
GO!

SYTYCD--- I'm SO disappointed!

Ok- laugh at me if you want but my son's girlfriend has got me hooked on "So you think you can dance." We watch it together almost every week (much to my son's dismay I might add!) Anyway, I really don't get too involved in the realty shows but I do watch American Idol faithfully and now this is my second season watching So you think you can dance. Oh yeah- and then there is Dancing with the Stars! LOL Hmmmm...maybe I get more involved than I think. :)

Now I realize that leaving the voting on these shows up to the public rarely gives us the results we expect but last night I was SO upset when Will was voted off! He is such an amazing dancer and I was so mad! Alyssa and I claimed we may not even watch anymore (although I'm sure we will break down) But, GRRRRRRRR I was upset!

Anyway, just had to vent and get it out of my system! I'm good now! :) Anybody else out there watch the show?
