Shopping Tip #1...Purse Safety

Christmas shopping is in full swing, I know this because I am a die-hard Wal-Mart shopper..and when it takes me more time standing on line to pay for my kids food stuff then it does to pick up a few hundred groceries, read all the celebrity scandal mag's at the register, eat a king sized Hershey bar one bag Bold Party Chex Mix and a Cola, pass out $5.00 worth of quarters to my two boy hellions for the arcade room, run back and pick up five forgotten items, get 24 photos developed, and set up my cell phone voice mail, my senses tell me...holiday shopping is alive and well here in sunny Leesburg.

Shoppers are buzzing and shoplifters and purse snatchers are around too. I haven't seen any yet..but they are there, I've been told.

Now, because my purse holds everything important in my life, gum, tums, strawberry lip gloss, glasses lens cleaner, 47 pens and highlighters {I know..I know, I just love them too much to part}, two to-do books, an unbalanced checkbook, 98 receipts, a polka dot umbrella and oh yes...my keys and wallet, I know I can't be too safe. It's mine, I'm keeping it and hell's to the no to all you Grinches out there, you ain't gettin' it.

What I do everyday, not just during the madness of the holiday rush, but all the time is a very simple way of keeping what's mine right there in front of me and not taken by some sticky fingered weirdo.

Now...while I don't have small young un's anymore this may be a small problem for those who do.
OK..so, very short and sweet...take the baby seat harness safety clips located right there on your shopping cart and clip the handle of your purse in them.
BaaDaa Bing, BaaDaa Boom..that's it.
Seriously..this takes 2 seconds and could very well keep your purse from being grabbed by some Scrooge who would love nothing more then to do some shopping with your hard earned cash.

BTW..I don't claim to be a professional safety expert..I just wanted to share what I know works for me. And, I've had plenty a man, woman and even a police officer tell me it's a darn good idea. Try it, please, for this here face...



LOL, see that..I knew you'd do it for him. :0)

Have a great night everyone!!!!

Love, Kim

It's Tomorrow Somewhere, Isn't It?

LOL, I should have known better..I really should have known. OK, I promise to never promise again, and that's a promise. :0)

So, yesterday was a busy day..no surprise. Last night the boys helped out with PWCST black belt testing, and that was really cool. Afterwards, while we waited for Kayara and Adriana to walk back from the Leesburg Christmas parade, Kolin had a few minutes to himself on a completely empty karate floor and of course, because Kolin is Kolin..he couldn't go without pummeling a couple training dummy things.

This is a pretty snotty photo cuz my speedlight {external flash} was acting like a snot, and he was moving way faster then me or the camera could keep up...so sorry about the quality, but ya'all get the idea.



It looks like Bear's Mohawk days may be coming to an end, as he has decided that he wants to grow his hair out long too. His decision made by a few brats in school that can't seem to take the hint "hands off the shunt". I'll miss that "hawk", but I'm sure one day it'll be back.

Welp, my friends and family that I love..let me get going and see if perhaps I can get a few snaps of Bear before it gets too late...or he leaves me to go toss a football around again.
Next weekend...Christmas pic's for sure, no matter what the little hellions say. ;0)

Have a great day everyone!!!

Love, Kim

Bad Blogger

Yep, I need a good ole' smackdown for being the worlds worst blogger this week. It's been a crazy week and between Dad Bear and I, we sort of barely made it through. All I can say is TGIF!!!!
I promise to get ya'all some new photos and some new blogging material to read tomorrow.
Till then though, it's pretty late so I'll wish you all a good night and I'll be talking to you tomorrow. :0)

Love, Kim

PS. Sheila, e-mail me!!! nikon4kim@gmail.com

Please, please help us get her to the #1 spot for Cat Country's Cutest Kid

She's number #013 and this is what her photo that was submitted looks like...



Thank you so much to everyone out there who helped us get her this far.
I'll update again real soon..I have got to go and help Kolin with some homework. :0/

Have a beautiful night everyone!!!

Love, Kim

PS. I can't pull that magazine on-line yet, I think it may be too soon. As soon as I can get it to show ya'all..I definitely will. Oh..yes, it is a local Lake County magazine..a really nice one that is huge, in full color and just beautiful.I am still in awe.

PPSS. You would not believe how many people {friends from our hometown here in Leesburg} that we know who are reading it and can't get through it without tears {Ahem..Michelle}.
That Kody Bear of ours..he has touched alot of lives. :0)

Kody's Magazine Article...

It's here and hot off the press today, Kody's full color, 6 pages long magazine article and it is AWESOME!!!!!
I had no idea it would be today, so, on my lunch break, as I waited for my favorite little coffee shop to make my pumpkin latte with a Coke on the side, I glanced over at the racks off magazines and his name just caught my eye.
So, I picked me up a handful and tomorrow, I'll be going back for more. :0)

Seriously though...the article was beautifully written, absolutely phenomenal, the layout was incredible with all sorts of silhouettes of martial arts, skateboarding and even the first two pages were that of an electric guitar with the body part being a cancer ribbon.
It is so Kody, soooooo Kody Bear.
They used all my photos with credits....which was incredible in itself. :0)
There are no words to describe it...so, I'm going to look around tonight and see if I can find a link to it.
It's a must, must see.

I really just can't get over how beautiful this article is, and the people who put it all together, we thank you a million, trillion times.

To celebrate, well..I wish I could say I had some shots of Bear, but I don't. Sorry, but I will within the next day or so.
I do have some of Kolin from the weekend. BTW, Kolin and Kaysha are both in the mag. too.

I little bit different editing for me, but I kind of think I like the toned down colors for there...





Have a BEAUTIFUL night everyone!!!!!!

Love, Kim
