Ok, here goes.........

So, I have kept some of my faithful readers waiting in the wings. It has been a crazy July! I knew it would be a full month. Also, I always have an order of internet usage each night. E-mail, MySpace, Facebook, then blog. I just happen to get stuck on Facebook a little too long!

I had to look back and see if I had blogged about the fourth yet! That's how behind I am.

The weekend following the fourth of July, Rusty and I went to Oklahoma for his grandmothers 80th birthday.
Here's Marley on the ride down sitting on the best blanket in the world, the North Woods Throw.
Rusty's cousin Tara has the cutest little girl. She is so smart and well behaved!


We had a great visit and I was glad we went down that way. I also had a PQ Party (sort of) at my bestie Tammy's house. It was a get together with old school buddies!
Here is Christina and her beautiful little girl Reese!

Here is a picture of the gang that got together plus my stepmom!

My stepmom (trying her damndest to hold Reese!), Angie and her beautiful boy Kannen (?sp), Erica, Susan, Tammy, Me and Christina.

After returning home we had a week at work then I left on Thursday with my bestie Leigh Ann to go spend the weekend in Colorado with our bestie Jen! Here we are in the mountains.
And again in the mountains. I love this next picture and have it two different places!

We also met up with the fourth member of our high school crew, Mandy, while in Colorado. She was able to join us for a day of shopping around while gabbing back and forth. It was so fun!

Jen, Leigh Ann, Mandy, and Me

Here is the Stanley Hotel.....................what hotel the book "The Shining" by Stephen King was based upon. The second making of "The Shining" actually had some shots here I believe.

This is a picture of a beautiful rose at the hotel. I love, love, love taking pictures like this!!


The "For Sale" sign is out of the yard and we are moved in. We even have the garage able to park in now. We desperately need to get our ladder access to the attic installed so we can store stuff up there. There is still lots to do but it will come slowly. No matter how much I would like to just get it all done now, it's just not gonna happen. Too much money!!!!!

On the subject of the dishwasher.........my husband spent the last two nights trying to get it hooked up for me. This is how long he was in the floor like that. Marley got tired of waiting for us to go relax in the living room so she just nestled right in.

Bubba was also waiting. He just happened to do so on a damp towel used to collect water that wouldn't quit leaking. We know now what needs to be done and hope to have it all hooked up this weekend!


Lastly!!!!!!!!! I got my new products and catalogs for the Fall Season of Private Quarters. Unbelievable stuff guys! I am so excited. I have to start hard and heavy on the calling and getting some parties lined up. I know it seems a little pricey but when you see, feel, and own it you know it is worth the price. Even my husband is a believer!
