Racing!

Ahhhhh racing. I really do love it! Most people dont know that about me. I love to sit at home on a Sunday afternoon and watch it. Indycar and Nascar. Both are so exciting! It bugs me when people say oh whats so exciting about watching cars go around in a circle, but its much more then that. If you know all the strategic moves it makes it very enjoyable.

I really wish I could have gone to the Indy 500 today, but I dont have the money to buy tickets. So I will just have to sit at home and listen to my radio to see what happens. Maybe I will do that while laying outside in the sun and get tan :-)

Raining On Sunday

Love this song and its so fitting for todays weather

March Madness

I felt like the tile was appropriate for how March seems to be going for me right now. Didn't we just celebrate Valentine's Day yesterday? This month has gone by fast! Knowing that March is almost over that means April. April showers bring May flowers (and birthday presents) Which means that summer is so close I can smell it! Im ready for warm weather! I just got back from an AMAZING spring break trip to Florida and it was a blast. I got to hang out with my good friend Jennifer, who lives down there. It was so nice to finally hang out with her in warm weather. We stayed with Michelle Captain in her home. I am so blessed that she let us stay with her. It saved us a ton of money not having to pay for a hotel. The beach was nice and warm (minus the wind) and most days were warm. Did I mention it was WARM! ahhhhhh It was a much needed vacation!

Basketball is also on. I cant remember. How many Indiana teams were in the sweet 16? Thats right 2!!!!!! And Congrats to Butler for making it to the Elite 8! My good luck wishes are for you tonight Purdue!

P.s. Its FRIDAY! Enjoy the weekend!

Can I Please Sing Like Her?

Gotta Love Those Cats

I think they are pretty great. Well, I sure hope I do considering I have 4. Now im not as good as a story teller about little critters as my cousin Katie. Yes, I am calling her my cousin because I dont want to get into that technical cousin-my-marriage stuff. Shes married to my cousin, that makes her my cousin, end of story.

Annnnnyway! Last night I'm in my room getting ready for bed when I notice one

of my cat had something in his mouth. You know how people always say "If you have a mouse; get a cat" Well, its totally true..... Yes, my cat had a mouse hanging in his mouth, still alive.

Now I'm a softy when it comes to animals, I dont like seeing them hurt or dead no matter what kind it is. I use to have pet mice and loved them. But this kind of mouse I was not to crazy about to have in my room.

So I tried to get my cat to let go of it so I could trap it in a cup and set it free (no I didnt want to kill it) but that didnt go according to plan and it got lose again. Thankfully all my cats ran after it so I never lost sight of where it was *side note, I'm screaming and on a rolling chair this

whole time* I was finally able to trap it in a door between my room and the laundry room.

So I slid a piece of paper under it and set it free!!! My cats didnt understand that it was gone and continued trying to find it the rest of the night. I was finally able to sleep peacefully knowing that this little critter was not roaming around my room :-)

THE END

p.s. My cats totally rock!

My Christmas Post

So I was going to do a fun post about our fun night at the Clark's house. But everyone else did it and pretty much everyone that reads this blog is my family or knows my family. So instead ill just post something Christmas-y.

I LOVE wrapping presents and putting pretty bows on them :-) here are some of my "creations" And yes i made them myself they are not pre-made bows that i just stuck on there :-)

Also, here is a song that I absolutely love by Rascal Flatts.

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

The Best Man I Have Ever Known

This is was my middle school Bible teacher. I still see him often and he always brings a smile to my face. And every year I get a special letter from him. Its about time the world got to know the man that touches 2,500 students hearts.

Thank You Mr. Stroup!

Take a few minutes and watch this video. I cried my eyes out.
