Other hair pics

So a few weeks ago my mom came out to visit while Brent was in Mexico and she and I got our haircut! Jen at Goldwaves is so great!! :)

Here are the pics!! What do you think??

Haircuts

So some of the girls and I all got our hair cut pretty much the same week! So much change going on! It was fun! :) (usually my hair is not so frizzy like it is here!)



Jenn, Karen, Jen, and me!

Stepping Up

Well tonight I started a Beth Moore Bible study called Stepping Up. It's with some girls that I work with.

I don't mean to say I started it as in it was my idea, i just meant tonight was the first night.

So far the study is fantastic, but the first night always is, right?! We'll see how it goes from here. It's a shorter study, so this is good. 6 or 7 weeks. I get burnt out on the 12 or 13 weeks...goodness...that's a long time.

So anyway check it out. You might like it.

I'll keep you posted on how it goes.....

You might be a redneck.....

Move over Jeff Foxworthy!! HAHA!! Okay so not really, but our shower knob broke last night and the apartment did not fix it today, so it broke all the way today! Well we have a new saying for Jeff..."you might be a redneck if you have to turn your shower on and off with a drill!" HAHAHA! LOL!!! We can turn on the shower, just with the drill!! oh me...you gotta love it!!
Kinda gross looking now that it is broken! YUCK!!

Okay, the next day is was fixed, so we only had to use the drill one and a half days!! :)

Mom, Mexico and Haircuts!

You may not think that these three things have anything to do with each other, but they do!! It was my week last week! First of all Saturday Jan. 5 Brent left for Accuna Mexico for a week for a mission trip with the school. They got back yesterday. IT was a great trip! Below you can see a slideshow of some pics that Brent took. I was hoping for a different song and a few more slides, but I'm still figuring this thing out...so maybe next time!! I downloaded Rhasphody free trial...so hopefully i can get some good songs downloaded!

I went home for the weekend for mammow's 90th birthday! She had a great party! Then my mom flew home with me for a few days after that! We had a blast! Most importantly we both got our haircut!! Mine is really short and mom's is stacked in the back and angled down the side of her face! We are SO trendy!!! :)

Here's the sad thing...right now my computer is telling me that I cannot download the pics of mammow's birthday nor the haircuts! b/c it's not compatible with my computer! This is crazy, b/c the manual says it is XP compatible and we have XP!! Oh well, maybe Brent can figure it out! I wish we had an "IT" (Information Technology)group at home we could call and they would come and fix it right up like we do at work! I love the IT guys and gals, they know everything about computers!! I'm as tech-no savvy! :(

Well hopefully i'll get this figured out!
oh also Brent is meeting with the Power Team on Tuesday around 9:00ish!! Please pray for him!!!

Okay...gotta run....Brent is eating my cheese puffs!!
Enjoy the slideshow!!!

love,

2008

Christmas has come and gone. New Year's has come and gone. So far I'm not impressed with 2008. It has not been fun so far. However maybe things are perking up a bit. Tomorrow night - Thursday - Brent and I are headed to the Bass Pro shop with 2 friends to have dinner with the VP of the Power Team! YES!! We are so excited!! I was running up and down the living room after Brent got off the phone with his friend, Jme. (it's a good thing we cleaned it up!!)

As for Christmas pictures.....there are not many. I left my camera at the Colee's on Sunday and I forgot to get it Christmas night, so it was either Wednesday or Thursday till I got it back!! However, i got a new camera in the mail today!! It's GREAT!! We'll be putting pictures on here soon that I took with it! I do have a cute picture of me and my nephew though :)

I'm flying home this weekend and mom's coming back with me for a few days! YAYAYAY!! I'm not excited about flying. The planes are too small and too full. One time I flew American Eagle - let's just say i will walk before I fly with them again!!!!!!! The air went out about 20 minutes BEFORE we began descending and that takes awhile in itself! Then we just rolled to a stop at the gate, when the POWER WENT OUT!!!! This is not comforting nor appreciated! I'm pretty sure the angels flew us in!!!!I have no problems with the pilots, just the aircraft itself!!!

Well it's almost 10, so i'm about to go to sleep! I hope everyone else is having a better 2008!!!

The Five Phases

No, not of the moon, but of Brent! He has five phases that he goes through each day and they are as follows:

Working Brent

Studying Brent

Goofy Brent

(here he is playing the trumpet)

Working out Brent

and last but not least:

Sleeping Brent

Brent is so funny. He's a good student and a hard worker. I love him.

snakes, snails, and puppy dog tails......

That's what little boys are made of! haha!

Well there have 2 new little boys added to our family!

Ryder Andrew Colee and Destin Michael Cornhill

They are such sweet little nephews!

Destin was born 11/16. He weighed 6 lbs 8 oz and was 19 and 1/4 inches long.

He is so sweet and small. He's adorable. He's such a good baby. He gets a ton of love for sure! Michael and Brittany were really tired, but now they are doing great!

Here are some pictures a few days after he was born:

Ryder Andrew Colee was born in September to Drew and Brittany Colee. He has the most beautiful eyes! He's a chunk though! He was 8 lbs when he was born and he was early! Grayson loves his brother! He's so funny! Those two are gonna have a fun in a few years!

Here are a few pictures, Ryder is about 2 months in these pics:

Gray would not let me take his picture!

Yahtzee and Truffles

Well here we are and it's December 10! It's so wierd - last Friday it was 80 degrees and today it's 41 degrees!

So yesterday, Sunday, was a good day...first i made truffles with my friend Jennifer! I think I might become a candy maker! haha!! It was fun. We made oreo, mint chocolate, and cookie dough truffles! She made peanut butter ones, but I do not like the peanut butter truffles...it's too much peanut butter for me. - side note: i'm watching Deal or No Deal as I type this and the lady on there is Ridculous! i mean really never in my life have i seen such a crazy person! what a silly show! - okay on the important stuff!

After truffle making was over, we went Chris and Christy's house. Christy made taco salad. it was delish! YUM! Then we played Yahtzee! Everytime we play Brent wins, well Brent wins at most games, BUT tonight it was Christy's night on the first game she got not 1, not 2, not 3, but FOUR yahtzee's! This is a record! It was hilarious! Right before the the third yahtzee, she goes, " i think i feel another one comin' on and BAM! there it was yahtzee number 3!! haha! Her total score was: 530 points! WOW!! Your's truly got a whole whopping 239 points, i came in last. Christy's winning streak ended with the beginning of game 2, she had one yahtzee and 187 total points. :( And Brent went back to winning again. He won with 413 points, of course.
