What is an Octogog?

This is way too freaking cool! Although Lexa probably wouldn't get to excited about Octodogs yet, because she doesn't even know what a hotdog is, she will surely get a kick out of this some day! Just slice and boil.

Click one of the pictures for directions!!! So awesome!

Wolverine

OMG! I love Wolverine! And now there is going to be a prequel to X-Men all about him!

"It will center on the origins of the superhero with animal-like reflexes, an alloy skeletal system and the ability to heal from virtually any wound. The film will trace Wolverine's past as he discovers the world of mutants and, ultimately, the ominous Weapon X program, which turns people into living weapons." - USA Today

"He's a good guy, but not necessarily a nice guy." - Hugh Jackman of his character, Wolverine

Logan will be testing my patience until May 1, 2009 when it hits the theaters.

I'm In Love

Warning

So this is the cartoon that has the Muslim world in an absolute uproar and trying to assasinate it's artist. I still don't even come close to understanding that culture.

What's Better Than Free Pizza?

We decided to go out for dinner Friday night and ended up getting a free meal because the waitress lost our ticket. This is my first video upload with blogger instead of YouTube so give me some feedback!

Angelina Jolie Visits Iraq

Thursday while Angelina Jolie visited Baghdad expressed a feeling of urgency and concern for the displaced Iraqi people saying, "I don't see borders...I see lives and I see children and this is, you know, an environment where there is a war but there is a humanitarian crisis. And they have to be addressed simultaneously. We can't wait for one to end to then finally take the time to address the other, it has to start right now." Click here to read the full article.

Let's just hope she doesn't Turn out like her - or any other celebrity for that matter - unless she turns out to be the white Oprah - cause then she'd have mad money and want to give me some.

There is a new ticker today too. For the PBC. If you don't know what the PBC is then you are totally not cool!

I have enabled you to make comments without being a member now. So feel free to make comments on the blog posts.

Who will win Super Tuesday? Do you care? Does it even matter?

Need I say more?


BTW, wasn't this just the coolest commercial during the Superbowl?

It's a brand new day

I have to let everyone in blog land know that I have been totally not in the mood to blog for the past few months. Just the thought of spending the time to post something made me want to turn off the computer. I think I've been slightly depressed to be honest. Don't get all twisted - I'm doing great and love my life - I just lost someone very very close to me in November and the Holidays were mildly bareable. That and a good dose of the winter blahs and I just don't feel like spreading good cheer with my blog? I hope everyone understands - but if you don't - too bad.

So this post is going to catch everyone up on my life for the past three months!!! Let's rewind to early November. Lance and I went to a fancy shmancy dinner benefit in Rogers for the Circle of Life Hospice. It is a great cause - both of my maternal grandparents used their services and it just makes the family and the loved one feel better about the ending of life.

I hope we go again next year; I promise I won't drink too much wine.

Hmmm, what happened next. I think I might have to back up a little more and post a Halloween picture of Lexa. She was a cute sunflower! We also got a professional picture at Bedford and it turned out great!!! I've had to check my calender to see what all happened in November and I just remembered that we bought a house for my Mom. It's not much but it brings her back to Arkansas and I LOVE that! We painted some of the rooms inside and did a little fixing up - with more to continue when the weather warms up a little more. November was a very busy, sad, trying month. I lost some one so very close to me and I'm still having a difficult time dealing with it. NEshmoo, lets get to December. Cyndy's Birthday!!! Happy Birthday Girl!!! Love ya LOTS!!! Christmas parties and family get togethers!!! Lexa finally figures our how to tear the wrapping paper off the boxes! And she's been growing so fast!!! This picture is of us at Lance's work Christmas Party. It's always a good time - but watch out for Steve's cat when you go over there - it literally tried to claw a woman's eyes out!!! Oh and for Christmas I got Lance a Dewalt Power Tool (can't go wrong there) and he got me a digital picture frame!!! It rocks! I love it! Lexa got clothes and puzzels and some toys. That girl loves books!!! She is perfectly happy when someone is reading her a book and sometimes she will just sit in the floor with a little stack of books and flip through the pages - it is the cutest thing. (must get a picture of that for you to see) Also during December, Lance finished the fireplace mantel! It is beautiful!!! Oh, gosh, I must back up and let everyone know that our good friends Josh and Melanie had a baby on November 29th! They live in Texas so we haven't seen her yet, but we are planning a trip to see them sometime this year.

What a doll!!!

There were a lot of baby announcements in December!!! I guess Valentines Day 2007 was especially nice for many. :) My lovely friend Laura Saunders had a baby - and I must apologize because I can't remember any of the details.

Ok, January. Wow. There is nothing interesting on my calender for January. I will say that Lexa Starting walking between Christmas and New Year's Day and has been getting into every freaking thing since! And yesterday we had a full on snow day and I got some great pictures of that. We got almost 5 inches!!! WOW!!!

SMACK!!!
