Driving In The Car Yesterday....

We were coming home from a Costco shopping trip and the girls were kidding around with Daddy that they were going to wrestle him.

Claire- "I am going to take you out little man."

Talk about getting the giggles. Where did she hear that phrase? Could it be Spongebob?

I.O.U.S.A.: Byte-Sized - The 30 Minute Version

This is a very informative video about our national debt and what it means to each and every American. The information in this documentary is a must watch whether you are Democrat or Republican. It is truth, it is fact, it is scary.

The necessary changes that need to be made will effect all of us and we must all make sacrifices in order to get our country back to the strength that we used to have before Bush got into office. Yes, I know you all know that I voted for Barack Obama and that I can't stand Bush, but this truly effects each one of us and especially our children.

Please take the time to watch it so you have the facts of the state of our national debt. So you have the facts of how our country is in jeapardy of self destruction. So when Barack Obama wants to raise your taxes you will understand why. It is for the good of our nation.

Okay, off my soap box and now on to the video with you......

Down Time

I have been taking some downtime from life for the last week. I really need to get recentered and re-happified. This includes some much needed time with myself and my family. This time of year brings on the blues for me so some time in therapy is also a must. I will be back to my old self soon.

The New First Family

Ali Edwards had this photo on her blog this morning and I wanted to share it with you all-This is a quote that says it all for me right now.

I now have hope for my childrens future in this country. I don't think I realized that I was holding my breath until that moment that CNN announced him as the winner and the tears started to roll down my face. I continued to cry through his entire acceptance speech.

YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN!

Charity Auction Book for NCCS

These are the pages that I submitted for this wonderful cause. It is a group of us over at Etsy Cottage Style http://etsycottagestyle.ning.com/group/alteredartpassaroundbookfornccs. One of our members has a family member that has suffered with cancer and wanted to give back to the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship for all the help they provided her during their struggles with the disease. The Auction will be for a book that she will make with all of our submitted pages. It will take place on Ebay during the week of Nov. 20th. I will provide a link here at the time of the auction for those of you that are interested.
