Playing Catch Up

Friday, May 09, 2008:

I am done with school for this semester!! I am so happy to have a break. I won't have any classes until after the 4th of July. So, that means that hopefully I can get caught back up in other ares of my life; blogging, cleaning, etc...

I was able to take a break from studying last weekend to have some fun with friends and family. I already posted about the great Mom's Night Out. I now have pics of me with "Dancing Bob". I never could figure out how to load the video of his moves, but you can click on this link if you wanna see it. I HIGHLY recommend clicking on this link and turning your speakers on. Thank you to Rebecca for the great video! LMAO!http://s84.photobucket.com/albums/k38/lukeeley/2008/05-May/05-02-Ozbeet_GNO/?action=view&current=2008-05-02-Camis_Boyfriend.flv

So last Saturday, Wes, Hunter and Wes' dad were in a fishing tournament out at Lake Ray Hubbard. They didn't catch a single fish, but they had a great time hanging out with each other, and came home with some cool prizes. Hunter was excited to be the only one in the group to get a bite. A turtle, clearly unaware that they were fishing for crappie, got his minnow. While they were at the tournament, Grace and I headed to the White Rock Lake Festival. We met up with my friend Donna there, as well as my friend's Jake and Lea. By some crazy coincidence the same band that had been playing at my MNO, on Friday was also playing at the festival. It was the perfect day to hang out by the lake and listen to good music--and of course jump in bounce houses.

On Sunday, the whole family headed back to the festival. Wes had a pretty bad sunburn and was fairly miserable. Our air conditioning loving dog was also pretty unhappy. We got to see a few friends there, but didn't stay very long.

I was gone a lot of this week studying for my final exams. Thank you to all of my friends that helped out by watching Grace and either taking or picking her up from school for me. It was a HUGE help and I appreciate each and every one of you.

One funny thing from this week was when Wes noticed that one of Romo's paws was hot pink. He asked Grace if she had colored it and she said, "No. He must have got into my markers." Here are some pics. He was very embarrassed about it, and kept trying to hide his paw under his head while I took the pics.

And with Grace as she tells him to, "Smile! It's okay."

In other news, as I was beginning to take a sigh of relief and relax a bit after my finals, I got a call from my friend Susan to ask if I would be interested in being the treasurer for the Eagle's drill team. After very little thought, and consulting with my husband, I accepted the position. I already have a pretty full plate, but I just love the Eagle's organization and want to help out in anyway that I can. She has promised to help me with this task, and I'm just hoping that I can live up to their expectations. I will have a lot to do in the beginning as the organization has 4 different drill teams, and probably close to 100 girls. So, wish me luck..
