I was tagged by several friends on facebook to write 25 random things about me, so I thought I would transfer it on over to my blog.

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

The kids came home today. They had so much fun at Mimi & PawPaw's and the best part is, it snowed! Mom said the boys were in it the entire day yesterday. Kensley loved it too. Here's some pictures. I've got some video I hope to post soon too.

Man it's cold outside

We have snow! Okay, granted, it's not much, but it's white & covers the grass (mostly). I wish I could have seen it coming down, but I had to give it up last night at 1:15am & go to bed. The kids are still at my parents & they called last night very excited that it was snowing there. I hope they got enough to go sledding because my parents have a great place to sled.

On another note... I had my massage yesterday. One word... fabulous! This is the best massage therapist I know. If you are in the Shelby area, you need to check her out....http://simpletouchmassage.com/index.html

Silence

The kids are at my parents for a couple days. Woo, hoo!!!(... did i just type that out loud?) Seriously, I love my children more than anything, but everyone needs a break once in a while. I feel like a better Mommy when they come home because I've had a refresher. So I am fully taking advantage of this long weekend. Last night Corby & I went out to eat & saw a movie with some friends & it was fun. It's been so long since we've doubled dated... without kids. This morning I was standing looking out the window while eating my yogurt & I said, "it's really quite in here" and Corby said I had a huge smile on my face. Speaking of this morning, we had snow... but only for about 5 min and it didn't stick, but it was really pretty looking out the window for those few minutes. Okay, so for the rest of my agenda, I'm cleaning out junk stuff, finishing up a card job I've been working on, going for a massage and having some friends over for supper. And, I get to sleep in for the next couple days... glorious! My parents will probably be wiped out when they bring the kids back & I'll be ready to take them on again (that sounds like some kind of ball game or match... hee, hee!)
