Happy 17th Birthday Leah!!

Happy 17th Birthday to our daughter, Leah!! She is away this week with the church youth group at Impact which is held at Lipscomb University. We miss her and are sad she is not here to celebrate today but she is with lots of great friends who I know will help her celebrate today!

We love you Leah Rae!!

P.S. I just love Leah's picture that they had made at Mayfield's just recently with the dance team! We can't believe our baby is going to be a Senior this year! Time sure does fly!

Senior Pioneerette Yard Sale! Ends Saturday!

I am sorry I did not get this posted earlier in the week!! I know one of my faithful blog friends asked me this morning why didn't I have it on here! I have no excuses except for lack of time and energy!!

We are finishing up Saturday, June 13 with our Senior yard sale. We are doing this to try and raise money for our 4 Senior dance team members who are trying to raise money to help out with their trip to perform in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade in November.

My oldest daughter had the opportunity to do this when she was a senior and it was a great trip and educational experience as well.

Come on out tomorrow to 102 James St. behind the ball fields! There is lots of things for everyone esp. clothes (name brand) for all ages. Some that have not ever been worn. We will be there until noon!!

If you can't make it tomorrow, we are planning on having one sometime in August when school starts with some fall clothes as well.

Thanks for all your support!

I am burning at both ends!!

Hey everyone!! I just can't seem to get caught up and un-busy for a few minutes to blog any at all but I am trying in the few minutes that I have before I am on to the next commitment!

Next week I will be totally out of pocket. Maybe by the end of the month I can sit, relax and blog for awhile!

Hope everyone is having a good summer! Watch for those storms!

Annual Pioneerette Yard Sale!

The Annual Pioneerettes Dance Team Yard Sale is this Saturday, June 6 at Bobby Ray Elementary. The time for the yard sale is 7:00 a.m. until 2:30 p.m.

There are 20 families participating with lots and lots of name brand clothing, household items, all kinds of shoes/purses!

Everyone come out and find some great deals!!

Whew been busy around here!!

Sorry I have been out of the blogging world for a few days! It's the end of the school year plus dance recital week and I have been swamped with last minute things that need to be done or get done!

Hopefully, I will be able to post a picture on Thursday of the Red, White and Blue bows that Leah is selling for the dance team.

Some of you have already ordered and thanks so much! I will be getting in touch with you soon on when to deliever them.

Congratulations Leah!!

This past Saturday was the annual end of the year Pioneerette Dance Team picnic and awards presentations.

The awards the girls receive are voted on by their team members. Leah was awarded "The Best All Around Junior" member of the team for the 2008-2009 school year!

Congratulations Leah!

These are the upcoming Senior Officer group for the dance team next year. Leah, Kayann, Allison and Laci. They will be a great group of officers! They have been friends for a very long time and bring a lot of dance experience and leadership to the team for their Senior year!

Congratulations girls this is going to be a great Senior year for you all! We are looking forward to having another National Championship title under our belts!

Happy 17th Birthday to my niece!

Happy Birthday to my niece, Chelsea who turned 17 actually last Thursday but we celebrated her birthday on Sunday with the family!! Chelsea and my daughter, Leah are only 6 weeks apart in age. It has been fun watching them grow up together and I can't believe that they will both be Seniors next year!!

We hope you had a good birthday Chelsea! Don't spend all that money in one place! Love ya bunches! Aunt Susan

P.S. for those of you who don't know we have a running joke that Chelsea looks more like my child than both of my children looking anything like me!

Red, White and Blue Bows are ready!!

I will have a picture to post tomorrow of the bows for you to see.

The dance team is once again selling their Memorial Day/4th of July bows.

They are still $6.00 per bow.

Leah sure would appreciate it if you would consider buying from her. This sell not only helps the dance team overall but also helps Leah.

Thanks again in advance. Just leave me a comment and I will get them too you ASAP!

Thanks again everyone!!

Thank You!!

I just wanted to say thank you to all my friends and family who came to my "Initial Outfitters" party last Sunday!!

I could not believe everyone who stopped by and looked, browsed and bought!! Lori told me that my party was the biggest that she had ever had!! Wow!! Thank you all so much!

I am looking for everything to be here this week. I will be in touch as soon as I have it!!

I am also sorry that I have not been blogging lately! I have had a busy week plus I am still trying to get over this sinus infection that is continuing to drag me down and I don't have time to be down!!! Too much to do and this past week was busy, busy.

I finally gave up again and the doctor prescribed for me another anitbiotic, Z-pk, so hopefully it will kick in. I am soooo tierd of coughing and feeling worn out. I have had to continue to go but really felt terrible. Guess I can do some good acting!

Ya'll have a good week! I will be posting some pictures of the cousins reunion on my father's side that my mother, sister and I hosted today.

Keep your rainboots on!! Looks like more is headed our way.

Maybe we will get out of school on Monday!! LOL!

To all my blogging friends and readers! You're invited!

I am hosting a party on Sunday, April 26!!! This party has everything a women would want!!! Jewelry/engraveable jewelry; monogramable items from purses to umbrellas to hats to visors!! They even have engraveable things like trays and items that a guy would like. At very reasonable prices!

These things would make great graduation gifts and that is coming up by the way on May 22!! Mother's Day is coming up too!

The party is come and go so you won't have to commit your whole afternoon. Just come and take a look at all the neat samples of everything that she has. And believe me she has lots to show you. If you remember, Lori Steakley that is who is hosting my party. Yes I had her in class back when she was in the 8th grade if that tells you how old I am!! LOL! Lori is now a Hendrix and living in Dowelltown and teaching!!

Take a look at the pictures below and I am including the website for you to look at as well. If you would like something and can't make it to the party, let me know and I can place your order for you!

Happy Birthday today to my sister - in- law,

Carol!!! Hope you have a great day!

2 Important things going on tomorrow!

The Westwood Youth Group will be having a pancake breakfast tomorrow morning from 8:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. at Westwood Church of Christ in the fellowship hall/gymnasium. This is a fundraiser for Relay for Life.

The cost is only $5.00 and you will also get some of that good ole Goolsby sausage and a drink.

Also on your way to the breakfast, the Warren Co. Pioneerettes Dance Team will be having a roadblock to raise money to help support the team. This money will be used for costuming, choreography, camp and any other need the team may need. Your help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Yipeeeee!!!!

It's amazing what being on an antibiotic for 24 hours can do for you!! I am finally feeling much better and the head congestion is GONE!! Thanks everyone for thinking of me!!

Thanks Dr. C. your the best!

Well I went back to school yesterday and was still feeling pretty rough by the end of the day soooooo I broke down and made the appointment to go see Dr. C. I just about freaked out when he wanted to do a "flu test"!!! I thought please I can't have the flu now!! Well good news.... I don't have the flu thank goodness but a very bad sinus infection which has my head totally stopped up and a very congested cough.

With that being said and a low grade temp last night, I decided I needed to stay at home again today in hopes of feeling better. Needless to say, it hasn't happened yet. Hopefully, by this afternoon I will feel the effects of the meds!!

Have a good day everyone. It looks awfully pretty outside.

Bummer!

Well I have been lucky so far this school year and I have not been sick but on Sunday night I could feel the results of a bad cold starting to take effect!!! After church I headed to the drug store to get some vitamins to start taking in hopes that it would fight it off but last night I continued to get worse. So I had to take my first sick day off of school today. I really don't think I picked this up from one of my students. I think that I must have gotten the bug while I had a check up appointment at the doctors office on last Friday!!! I stayed in the bed today until about 10:15 then dragged myself out and took a shower. Feeling maybe some better but I am starting this coughing and having to clear my throat thing now! (my husband will love that tonight!! LOL) Oh well guess I will stop feeling sorry for myself and go watch TV and relax for awhile.
