My Cookie Monster

She does love having her picture taken, in fact...most days before school, she pretty much demands it, LOL!

It has been cold in Florida this week and I heard north of Ocala into Gainesville on up, they actually got some flurries ans iced over road conditions.
I also heard because of the lack of ice road knowledge, a lot of roads were closed.
Hopefully we won't see much more of it cuz even I am freezing...I know, I know. :)




These were all taken with my phone, so the quality is not of the camera.
I came down with the flu this week, and for real...haven't had one second of interest picking that camera up...sp please bear with me till I get back in the swing of it.

Some knitting and my beloved Asian green tea with honey...


Kody got another tattoo {his third} and so now all three boys have the same matching one. Soon as I can get them all together, I'll get some pictures. :)


Last weekend Mike had 3 days off, so we left the kids behind this time and took an awesome little mini vacation to Ormond Beach. We had the best time...but I think what I loved most was he planned the whole weekend and wouldn't tell me where we were going till we pretty much got there.
He's pretty cool that way.
Anyway...I have phone pics, if anyone wants to see them.

Well, with that...I have an ooVoo {video chat} date tonight with a man in a truck...so, pardon me while I get going!!

Take care everyone!!

XOXO

Sidewalk Chalk

During the weekend of our wedding out in Clearwater Beach, we were lucky enough to be staying in a hotel that was right next to the coolest sidewalk chalk competition.
Here's some of the artwork...it was absolutely phenomenal.










This one of Marilyn Monroe was gorgeous. The next day when it was finished I didn't get a chance to snap a picture of it. I saw it, but since I was walking past it with a wedding gown on...I didn't have my camera with me. It was beautiful though. :)


If you ever get a chance to visit Clearwater Beach...go for it!! I can't recommend it enough. There is so much to do, miles of beaches and everything is walking distance.
If you want to travel some and relax, there is a trolley that goes to every single hotel. It'll take you anywhere all day long for I think about ten dollars.
Personally..we didn't have a chance to use it, simply because there was just too much to do and when we did catch ourselves with some time, we walked.

Walked out to the best seafood restaurant ever, walked in the moonlight on the beach, walked from the hotel to the party boat and back again. yeppers...even though we were kind of rushed, for the most part...we made sure we took some time for us and the weekend was a blast. Lots of memories for sure. :)

Take care everyone!!

Those Two...

I swear when they're not pushing each others buttons...they are the best of friends. There's not much Kody won't do for her. :)


Here's one of Adri doing what she does best, acting like a goof. :)


Things are great here. Mike's been back out for a week now and has spent most of it up North in PA, WV and NJ...so, yeah...he's been feeling every bit of that cold.
Believe it or not, we had a low of 29 a few days ago...but thankfully it's now back into the more comfortable 80-ish category. That's more my style. :)
Anyway, he won't be back for another two weeks minimum. Three weeks out and three days in now. It's a crazy life, it's not for the weak, that's for sure.
Last time he came home he brought me back a shirt that says "There's only one thing tougher than a trucker, that's a trucker's wife" LOL...true!!

Have a beautiful weekend everyone!!!

XOXO

Twelve Years and Kickin'!!

Twelve years ago today and in true Kody style, he's still kicking the ass of the "C" monster.
Not only that, but he's about to graduate High school in five months.
Sigh...how can this be, I mean he was just 7, right?


It's been one hell of a ride, but with every year that goes by...I am more and more proud of the man he is becoming. :)

XOXO

Michael and Me

Despite being bittersweet, October 27th 2013 was a very beautiful day.
He really does make me happy.

Here's a couple more pictures of that day. My photographer/Friend took them but allowed me to edit them in more my style...and with all the madness of this family, it's taken forever...but, I'm just about done and ready to order my coffee table book. Times sure have changed, people just don't do albums anymore. :)




I still hope it's OK to blog about my new life and as soon as I'm a bit more comfortable with it, I'm sure I'll be back to blogging more often. :)

XOXO

Kim
