Anyone up for a good laugh?!

I just saw this on a bulletin on MySpace and HAD to post it here, it will have you all rolling!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An elderly Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her voice, "I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car!"

The four men didn't wait for a second invitation. They got out and ran like mad.

The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shopping bags into the back of the car and got into the driver's seat. She was so shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition. She tried and tried, and then it dawned on her why... For the same reason she did not understand why there was a football, a Frisbee and two 12 packs of beer in the front seat!

A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces farther down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the police station to report her mistake.

The sergeant to whom she told the story couldn't stop laughing. He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun.

No charges were filed.

If you're going to have a Senior Moment, make it a memorable one!!

Distant cousins

I have looked back on Cherrie and Trina's blogs and noticed some "Family pictures" that were very interesting! Then Raine posted an interesting picture a few days ago. So I thought I would join in and post some photos, hehe. We must be some distant cousins to them, well, except for Cherrie's family, we're obviously close ;)

HEHE, on another note: We have had awesome weather for a few days now, but it is back to being cold :( We're supposed to get snow in the afternoon today. It rained all night, and the wind scared me, I'm always a little nervous with strong winds, I always think a tornado will hit. There actually was a tornado yesterday in western Oklahoma. I really shouldn't worry though, God won't allow anything to happen that's not supposed to. Hope you all have a good day :)

Bubba

This is my handsome nephew, Shane AKA Bubba. He is 20 years old today. He is currently in college to be a history teacher. He has only had 3 girlfriends (that I know of). He only dates seriously. Whoever ends up with him will be a lucky girl, he has a heart of GOLD! I became an aunt at the age of 5 (with Shane's sister, Stephanie) and Shane was born when I was 6. I can't believe how fast these years have went! I'm just so happy to be a part of his family, he's a super GREAT guy!

It's a small world!

Yesterday was a BEAUTIFUL day here. It was in the upper 60's so I decided to take my kids to the park 2 blocks away from our home. Taylor rode her Heely's and Blake rode his bike around the park on the sidewalk, and I sped walked to keep up with them. After we all had walked/rode around for a while, I let the kids play on the playground. While Taylor was playing, she found a little girl that was in her class last year. They played together so well, and she just seemed like a sweet little person. After a while, the little girl's mom came over and just started visiting with me. One thing you all may not know about me is I'm so shy and won't really start conversations, but if a person initiates conversation, then I'm very friendly and outgoing. Unfortunately, it is usually other people that break the ice. (In fact, I met my best friend, Beth, because she was brave enough to come and visit with me, which I'm SOOOO thankful for ;) Anyway, back to my story, hehe. So I visited with this person for a while. She had another little girl who was a toddler and she was just keeping an eye on her while we visited. I don't really have many friends outside of church, so I really didn't see us getting to be GOOD friends, but if I ever saw her at the park again, I planned on saying hello to her. Well...today I went to a very sweet sister's funeral today. Her name was May Myers. Nice lady! She was one of the sisters that I scrapbooked with. Anyway I went to her funeral and when May's family walked in to sit, there was the lady from the park. I couldn't believe it. She is linked to our church! I don't know if she saw me, but if I do see her in the park, I plan on telling her how I knew May. I got to thinking about things after that. I could have just kept the conversation to a minimum and I could have maybe acted unfriendly. But you NEVER know who is linked to our wonderful family of brethern! We definitely have to be a light to the world. I just thought it was neat :)

Fever

Baby fever keeps on getting worse for me! I had Taylor almost 8 years ago and Blake almost 6. After Blake was born, my marriage with Ryan got VERY bad. I decided a long time ago that I didn't want any more kids because I wasn't sure that we would stay together. He was always gone, and spending his time with VERY "wrong for him" people. Also, Ryan and I have always struggled with money and I just didn't think that we could afford more children. So, it may have been wrong for me to feel SO against having another baby, but the truth is, I did. I was very much against the idea of another baby. Well, in September, our marriage COMPLETELY turned around. But finances were still horrible. At the beginning of this year, we both started really getting into Dave Ramsey (a debt free plan). And we are completely for it, and trying to achieve a debt free life. So what I'm trying to say is the two reasons that kept me from wanting a baby are not reasons that I can use anymore.
Honestly, I am always happy (every month) when I'm NOT pregnant, so I really don't feel like I'm ready yet.
I have a LOT of CLOSE friends having babies right now. It also seems like a lot of people that had babies when I did, are now having a second set of children. A lot of people waited a few years between kids, and I see that happening to us. I have been around a lot of babies recently and like I said, the fever keeps getting worse and worse ;) Ryan and the kids are all dying for me to have another baby. I still would like to wait a while longer. I really want to lose some weight before I put more baby weight on, but I think sometime in 2009 or 2010, we will more than likely have another baby. A part of me dreads it, but another part of me is really excited to have another one. But who knows what will happen. I am praying about it. God knows what is best for us, and he knows my heart. So I am trusting him to make it happen IF and WHEN it should happen.
