Party Time!

Yes, I realize I'm a bit late posting this one but hey what can I say, I'm not a very good blogger! Sorry. But better late than never right?! Here are some pics from my little boys b-day party.

He recently turned 5 years old! Wow! He is my third child and he's already 5!!! Dang, is my hair turning gray yet? Anyways, he picked a soccerball theme. So I made him a soccerball cake and cupcakes:


As for presents He got $5 from my sister,

A bug explorer kit from our friends:

& his father and I got him the movie "Bolt" (which was quickly set aside), a soccerball outfit (which was cool but what's in the big bag??)) And we got him a yup, you guessed it, A soccerball!!! He's was super excited, loved it!

Won't let his sisters take it outside now because "they'll get it dirty!" Wow, Austin worried about getting something dirty?? We may have to take him to the Doctor!! lol. Anywho, he had a great birthday party and thanks for letting me share it with you!

Swine Flu - Pandemic or Conspiracy???

I am so sick and tired of hearing about the swine flu. Everytime someones sniffles now everyone thinks they have swine flu! I found this on Yahoo! News.

Developments on swine flu worldwide

Key developments on swine flu outbreaks, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, World Health Organization, and government officials:

_Deaths: 29 in Mexico and two in the U.S., both in Texas. One of the U.S. deaths was announced Tuesday; Texas health officials said a woman with chronic health problems who lived near the Mexico border died this week. Last week a toddler from Mexico died at a Houston hospital.

_Confirmed sickened worldwide, 1,884: 942 in Mexico; 652 in U.S.; 165 in Canada; 57 in Spain; 27 in Britain; nine in Germany; five in Italy and New Zealand; four in Israel and France; two each in El Salvador and South Korea; one each in Austria, Costa Rica, Colombia, Denmark, Guatemala, Hong Kong, Ireland, the Netherlands, Portugal and Switzerland.

_U.S. cases confirmed by CDC or states: New York, 90; Illinois, 82; California, 99; Washington, 58; Texas, 41; Massachusetts, 34; Delaware, 33; Arizona, 49; Oregon, 21; South Carolina, 16; Indiana, 15; Colorado, 10; Michigan, eight; Louisiana, North Carolina, Maine and New Jersey, seven; Missouri and Nebraska, six; Florida, Nevada, Ohio and Wisconsin, five; Alabama, Connecticut, and Maryland, four; Hawaii, New Mexico and Virginia, three; Kansas, New Hampshire and Tennessee, two; and one each in Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Utah.

_U.S. health officials said Tuesday they are no longer recommending that schools close because of suspected swine flu cases since the virus has turned out to be milder than initially feared.

If it's "milder than initially feared", why the panic?? Just the other day a friend of mine seen people walking around St. Joe with Dr masks on. Like that's really gonna help! Some claim that is a government conspiracy to get more Americans to go see the Doc and pay the outrageous bills that that entales! But as for me IDK which I believe, how bout you?? Pandemic worth worrying about or conspiracy not worth paying for???

Decisions, Decisions...

As you will be able to see from the photos below my house is in desperate need of a fresh coat of paint. (or two!) There is a hold-up however; we can't decide what color to paint it! There are three houses around mine and all of them are yellow! So yellow is out. Think the hubs wants to go gray and white but I'm not a big fan of gray. I thought maybe white with black trim but hubs wasn't too crazy bout all white! So PLEASE if you have any ideas on what colors would look good on my house, let me know!!!!

Here's the front:



And this is the side you see when coming down the road:



As you can clearly see in these pics, there is an immediate need to get it painted!! Not only is it green and pink; but the paint is peeling off! It looks absolutely awful!!! Thank you all for your suggestions :)
