Marshmallows and Blogs

I have to get pictures from my friend Cassie- aka Luci Lemon- from this past weekend! The boys and I drove to their house in Montgomery to hang out for the weekend. It was so much fun. We played on the zip line, they jumped on the trampoline and we roasted marshmallows. JB announced excitedly, and to my surprise, that this was the first time he was ever going to roast marshmallows! How did I let you get to be 7 years old and never roast marshmallows? I can't tell you how many S'mores he ate or how many marshmallows Drew burned but I can tell you it was exciting to see the fun they were having. I can't wait to post the pictures.

On other notes of beginnings, I have started yet another blog. Give Me 1,000 Kisses is where I hope to keep you updated on my current art project. Right now, I just have the how it started story and the instructions on what to do if you would like to participate. I have about 20 lip prints and need to get started. Getting started is on my to do list for this weekend. Along with cleaning up that place I call home.

I am working on a new project this year on something I started years ago. I am recruiting people to send me their lip prints. To get started, first send me your lip print applied to any kind of paper- copy, yellow pad, napkin, coffee filter, you get the picture.

Send it to:

Cheryl O'Pry

2701 Knoll Trail

Euless, Texas 76039

I will then turn around and send you a piece of art paper for another print of your lips. Then, I turn your lip prints into schools of fish.

So, go ahead.

Kiss some paper and send it to me at the address above.

Gettin' All Techy On You

Hey! Hey! Hi! (My new friend Margaret has me talking like that. :))

I have a new email subscription link.

Just scroll down a little bit and you'll see it on the left tool bar there.

If you put your email address in there whenever I update this exciting blog you will get an email letting you know. Isn't that cool?

I know this isn't anything new to you old time techy's but it's new to me because I just figured it out. Fun! We'll be adding to our fun blog site at Highlowaha so you can subscribe over there, too. New changes are coming for the site and you won't want to miss out on the fun.

Okay, so now go subscribe!

In my world everyone's a pony, they eat rainbows and poop butterflies.

While I was in my room last night, I could hear the boys laughing about something in the other room... something that had to do with a lot of burping. They finally come running in and JB performs for me and I couldn't help it. I know I shouldn't encourage it but it's just so funny. They say it's from Horton Hears a Who but I don't remember it.

He burped the ending 3 times before we got the camera out... 3 TIMES! Not counting the numerous times that he did it in the living room. And each time an explosive burp at the end. Nope. Couldn't get it on video and this one cracked us up today in review.

HooRay! Happy New Year!

Read about HooRay at Highlowaha.

The boys and I spent a fun evening at the Beeny's where after dinner we had a ball drop at 8 complete with hats, streamers, noise makers and a New Year toast. We are so lucky to have such fun friends.

We now have four days of playing with our new Christmas goodies and cleaning stuff up.
