First Day of School . . .

So the little ladies headed off to school!  Cowgirl is now in 5th grade!  Can you believe it!  And little princess is starting Preschool.  I picked her up from preschool and she was so excited to tell me that she had soooooo many friends, she said, "I have one two three four e i o of them"  Well at least she is learning something :) Cowgirl is just excited to see her friends again, wear her new clothes and that she doesn't have any homework this week.

The Hydro-Seed . . .






They came and sprayed the "hydro-seed" in our yard today!  So exciting!  I have to say a big thank you to Dusty Poulson and GRASS PLUS they did such a Great Job!  They were such hard workers and so thorough on their work (even down to hosing off my driveway when they were done!)  Two weeks ago this was weeds and clay and now I can see it as a great place to grow (both plants and kids)!  he he he.  Exciting stuff!  Ya for lawn!  The kids are super excited and isn't it nice that the hydro seed is even green when they spray it to give you goose bumps about the idea of having a yard in.  They said it should grow in about 2 weeks and that we will need to mow it at least once this year!  YAY!

Ok so my little cowgirl turned 10 last week and boy is she growing up!  She choose to have a sleepover with a few friends.  We had fun with a cake and pinata and games, she got guitar hero for her birthday and MAN she is GOOD at it!  My hubby and I watched her play it last night and she rocked it!  Happy Birthday Cowgirl . . . I love ya tons!

I got my dream car . . .




Yes . . . it's a minivan!  he he he.  I tell you what . . . I don't care WHAT it looks like on the outside, it is HEAVEN on the inside.  With power sliding doors and space to keep the kids out of each other's arm reach . . . and the DVD player . . . Heaven I tell you . . . Heaven!  he he he!  I never would have thought I'd be the minivan driving mom but I am sure loving being one :)

Oh MY!


So Friday night (late) my computer freaked out on me for the LAST TIME!   I have had it with it and my photoshop was ruined so I talked my fabulous hubby into going to Best Buy and getting a new computer and I'll tell you what . . . it is Soooooooo Great!  I got a new iMac Desktop and it is the coolest thing ever!  It will be so great for my photography business and it is beautiful!  Okay okay, enough I know, but it is nice :)  Anyways, if you are ever in the market for a new computer, I strongly suggest looking into the Mac!
