365: Week of Feb. 16

Starting to lose interest in this a bit, I'm not the only one, Carla is too. She explains it perfectly. I think it would be different if I had the kit. I'm almost tempted to put them in the album I was planning on originally but then if the kit does come I'd have to switch everything over. That's just more than I feel like doing. But for now I'm plugging along.

Bought Marissa's Communion Dress last week but with me being sick I never got to take a pic. I need to find a better place for it, right now it's hanging in our Dining Room. The Dining room is more of a catch all for us & we only use it a few times a year. We just aren't the formal type of people. And this is all I'm showing of her dress--gotta keep it under wraps until her Communion, but I have to say--she looks like a bride! Just beautiful!

Today Marissa's Brownie Troop had a field trip. The girls were all excited about it too! I volunteered to drive a few girls for a few reasons. 1. The trip would take place during rush hour on the way back & I'm just on the protective side. 2. Marissa was excited that I would be there. 3. The field trip was at AC Moore!! One of my favorite places!! After a tour around the store the girls went to the craft room & made a little project. Me? I scoped out the scrapbook aisle!! Amazingly enough I only spent $5--that's a record for me!

Thanks to reconnecting with old friends on Facebook, I decided to dig out some O-L-D, crazy pics from my past. I might regret posting some of these pics but I did re-live some GREAT memories!! Have I mentioned how much I love Facebook??

Marissa's backpack. During the week it stays by the door so we don't forget anything. I can not wait to get her a new bag next year, I'm just NOT liking this messanger style at all since she wears it low & it drags on the ground as she walks. But she loves that it's purple & has an "M" on it for Marissa (not really it stands for "Mudd"that's the brand name but she likes it anyway).

My Valentine roses are pretty pitiful now. They need to be tossed out. Such a shame they don't last longer...

After seeing how much Gianna loved playing with Marissa's Nintendo DS, we broke down & got Gianna her own DS. Suckers we know!! We figure it'll help on the plane for our April trip. The girls were all intense playing them all day long. Love that they share games & stay occupied.
