Tu(n)esday . . . the wait is over

Ok so Im going to be lazy today with Tu(n)esday and pick a comical song. Im sure I may receive some negative feedback for this but Im just now geting to post at 9:30 or so. Its been a long day at the beach then some traveling and grilling out when we got home, kids baths me showering and so on and so on . . .

So, the comical song for this edition of Tu(n)esday is a song from the old HBO show called "Kids in the Hall". The song is titled "Daves I know". So check it out . . .



I know, its not the greatest comical song out there, but why should I go with the obvious Weird Al parody when you've probably never heard this song.

Next Tuesday will be a full featured post for Tu(n)esday. Lyrics, video, my thoughts on and how the song impacts me. Please dont let this post discourage you from checking out future posts.

Quick post - Headed to the Beach

I know, its Tuesday and Tu(n)esday post will come a little later in the day. We are packing up the kids and headed to the beach. Kind of a spur of the moment deal so I dont have alot of time for a long post right now. I am excited because it will be the first time I go surfing this year. Hopefully there are good waves.

Check back later today for the regularly scheduled Tu(n)esday post.

Birthday Moments Countdown

Well, today was my birthday. It felt like just another day, nothing special. I am now 28 years of age and physically I feel 40 yet soulfully I feel 18 still. I have had an interesting life but after 28 years I feel very blessed. God has definitely had His hand in my life and I am thankful for all He has done.

On to the purpose of this post . . . Since it is my birthday I thought Id do a countdown of my 5 favorite birthday moments.

5. 22nd Birthday - One of my friends found out that I used to love Scooby Doo, so they decided to get me alot of Scooby Doo stuff. Scooby Doo Monopoly, playing cards, stickers, a magnet, and a stuffed Scooby Doo. I opened it all at Sonnys with everyone that wasnt with our group looking at me like I was an idiot.

4. 17th Birthday - I played baseball and for some reason the only Wednesday game we played all of high school fell on my 17th birthday and it was in Gainesville. We left school early and got home around 10:30 that night. When I got home it was just me, my family and my best friend in high school. It was a crazy day but it was fun and a good birthday. By the way we lost, bad.

3. Today - My stepson made me a card that said Happy Birthday and I love you with a truck drawn on it. He said he wouldve drawn a Corvette on it but he only knows how to draw trucks. It was really sweet - made me cry.

2. 19th Birthday - A very rough time in my life after some things happened in our church, all my friends came over and hung out almost all night. It was alot of fun and I loved it. It was a good time. We had about 25 people packed into our living room.

1. 5th Birthday - I got a puppy for my birthday and I was really excited, until he wouldnt stop barking at me and my friends and I hit him on the head with a hammer. Yes, a real hammer, right on top of the head. He didnt bark the rest of the day. Just hid.

Year after year passes but memories will still be there.

Friends, food and a fuzzy little bear

Today was quite a day. First, the doctors office with Blake getting four shots and Logan getting his finger pricked for blood. It was crazy. Kids screaming and crying. It was tough. Im not a fan of needles but I did ok, jsut felt for them and their pain.

Second, I went to lunch with Mike and Daniel. Had a great time. It was good to have some chill time with the boys and get some good food. Moe's again. Last night and today, wow homewrecker is becoming a likeable term.

Thirdly(?), we went to dinner at some friends house. It was my best friend in high schools older brother and his wife, whos younger sister was good friends with Kristie, so it was pretty cool. They too have four kids so that was cool to let the kids all have fun and hang out together. We had hamburgers, corn on the cob and some roasted potatoes that were really good. Overall, had a great time and got to catch up on things.

Lastly, we went to Ollie Koalas with the kids so they could spend some time with their dad. It was a little awkward but it was good. Things in that department and progressing and getting alot better. Had fun myself. Loaded a card with a few bucks and played the basketball game and the shooting game. Felt like a kid. Had a good day.

The name game

Upon hearing the news that two others have now named their dogs Chloe, we have decided to change the baby's name from Khloe Lavonne to . . . (suspense) . . . Kelby Reese Holmes. She is going to be my angel Kelby.

Tu(n)esday

Ive wanted to start a weekly post featuring a song on some sort, but I didnt want to just steal Music Monday from Brad. Tu(n)esday will be a weekly post on Tuesdays featuring a tune that I like or means something to me in some way. Fittingly I am updating my Ipod and adding some songs and cds to it. This week there will not be a posted tune, however I would like to refer you to a band that I really like. The Band is The Wrecking. They have two music videos on Youtube which I am posting for you to listen to. Next week will start the regular postings of Tu(n)esday.






Remember, check back weekly for new posts on Tu(n)esday and keep looking for the other new posts that will soon be appearing.

Tomorrow is just a day away

Tomorrow. The first day of the consistent (hopefully) posting. Tomorrow and every tuesday will have a music theme. More on this tomorrow.
