Let's see how many people read my blog!

I recently watched a fellow blogger win a gift card for leaving the most comments.SO it gave me this idea.I will post a picture of something without giving anyone a heads up.The first person that can guess what the picture is will get a $5.00 wal mart gift card.If you by chance do not have a wal mart near you please let me know.Our town does not consist of much.We have wal mart,mcdonalds,burger king,big lots,and hmm not much else.I will run the giveaway until someone wins.When someone DOES win I will post a comment letting everyone know who the winner was.So let's get started.Can someone tell me what this is a picture of?

Hello outdoors Here we come!

It has been way to nice to be stuck indoors so the kids and I headed out last night.No we didn't do much.We went and watched Donald and his buddies race their r/c cars on the r/c track.It's not so funny to see them wreck at 70mph anymore since I know how much them little bity parts cost.I did however con the girls into letting me take their pictures.Oh it didn't take much conning.All I really had to do was say "Ashley sit right here for a second" then "Kelsey I want you right here for a minute".They cooperated very well.I'm looking forward to going to SpeedWay on May 21st for the Justin Stanfill Memorial.It's a once a year event and I like it.I got my Oprah coupons for my free KFC dinner.I spent a little longer then I wanted to last night just trying to get them to print then after they finally did print I found out our KFC is not accepting them because they don't have the grill it takes to make the grilled chicken "sigh".I made another banana split cake for desert tonight.It was much better then the first.The other lasted 1 day so I think this one will last barely through the night.Well I hope ya'll had a wonderful day like me.Come back tomorrow to see track meet pics of the kiddos.We are going to make it a full day event.They don't mind since they get out of school for it.

A Walk Down Memory Lane

This is 3 of my 4 nephews.I don't get to see them anymore since they have been adopted.I miss them and think of them daily.I can't help but to watch for them when I go to the store,park,etc.I hope they know I love them with all my heart and pray that someday we will meet up again.My sister gave them up for adoption due to hitting a rough time and not being able to give them the life they deserved.I would have loved to have gave them a loving home but since I already have 5 kids the state didn't think that to be a very good idea.I know they are in a loving home now and I know they are getting lot's of love.It's still hard for me to see pics of them without crying and I doubt that will ever change.I hope you enjoy this walk with me down memory lane for it holds a special place in my heart.

This is John.He is 2 months younger then Ashley.Kyla and I had the same due date but Ashley decided not to wait that long.When John was 7 weeks old his daddy broke his leg and the state stepped in and took custody of him.His daddy did get locked up and just got out at the begining of the year.John is 5 years old now.He was alway's so funny because he thought he was a big man.The poor child has spent most of his 5 years in foster care.

This is Austin.He was born February 5th 2006.I raised him from the time he was 1 week old til he was 10 months old.He will alway's hold a special place in my heart.I got very attached to him.He was the only one of the boy's I was able to bond with.

This is Carlos.I did see him from August til December 2008.I was able to take this baby pic of him and I let my sister take my camara to get the last pics for me.

This is Junior.He was the last of the boy's born on November 3rd 2009.This is the only time I got to see him.

HUMPH

Aren't they just adorable,loveable,kissable,and huggable?I think so!

I was having the perfect day.I woke up earlier then usual and got Kaden ready for school.Mom was here so I didn't have to get Ashley up to pack her out with me when I took Kaden to school.At 8:30 the little girls I was babysitting showed up (they are 1 and 3).I expected tears to flow when their grandma left but they stayed so happy the entire time.They was so happy go lucky.I could keep them everyday and not get tired of them.They were just adorable.I took lil one with me to get Kaden from school and he could not understand why mommy was carrying a baby and why the baby was riding in his carseat.He gave me the evil eye a few times but I know he still loves me.We made it home from school and started lunch and the girls grandma came and picked them up.I mowed the yard and took Ashley to school and was still having a delightful day.Ashley came in crying 2 times..the 1st was because the 9 year old neighbor kid hit her in the nose and the 2nd was due to the same kid hitting her on the bottom and leaving huge hand print welps.Yes that pretty much ruined my day and ticked me off.Then the neighbor girl's mother came to my door trying to cause trouble so I flat out told her I am putting up an electric fence and no trespassing signs.She kept trying to pick a fight so I slammed the door in her face.I get along with nearly everyone but not so much people like that.So now you know what killed my wonderful,spectacular,beautiful day.

Not Me Monday

Here we go again.Monday's never seem to pop up fast.I didn not have a wonderful time over the weekend.I did not pay my mother 50.00 to babysit all my kids so I could get a night away.No way not me..I love being around my kids 27/7 365.I did not take an attempt at baking a banana split cake and it did not turn out yummy enough to last 1 day.I did not keep Kaden home from school today because he woke up coughing and saying his head hurt.I did not give him tylenol and lay down with him and we did not wake up at 12:30 this afternoon "sigh".We do not have a meeting in the park at 5:00 tonight and i am not going since my kid missed school today "wink".Going to this meeting/get together would not mean I don't have to cook tonight.Erica would never have left a comment on one of my blogs that would have given me traveling dreams.I have not had this dream 2 times.I would never drive to Texas to find the above mentioned eating hamburgers with my cousin in a little diner.That just would not be the coolest dream ever.I have not gained so much weight my shorts don't fit anymore.I am not going to have to lose weight or buy new clothes.I am not still sitting here in my night clothes at 2:22pm.Well I think that tidies up my NOT ME MONDAY!Thanks for stopping by.
