Love my cats!

While I was making my bed today Poptart decided it was a great time to take a nap on the bed. I kept moving him so I could finish putting the flat sheet on, but he kept getting right back up there. I got sick of it so I just made the bed with him in it...LoL. After a while he had inched his way to the edge so I untucked the sheets to find a very disgruntled kitty! Of course once I had moved Poptart and remade the bed the ever photogenic Cricket decided he wanted his picture taken, too.

Camping 2008

Well, camping was definitely a blast! Maya and Dylan are so much fun! I am glad to be home though...I can't wait to sleep in my bed!!! I didn't take too many pictures because I was too busy having fun! However, we did go to "Trout-a-Rama" in Baldwin and I took a few pictures there. I made a scrapbook out of the pictures...check it out!
Love you all!

Haven't posted in a while...

I haven't posted in quite a while...I guess that is because nothing had been going on!! Scott is still working 60 hours a week...we see eachother for about an hour each morning and that is about it until Sunday. I guess now he is scheduled to work every Saturday until January...yuck!
I am going camping with my best friend, Jena, and her family this weekend. We are leaving tomorrow afternoon. I am excited...I have gone camping since I was in school! It is especially going to be fun to camp with Jena's kids...I love them to death!! I just wish Scott could come...the next weekend that he doesn't have to work I am going to steal him away for a mini-vacation! He definitely deserves it!! I will post some pics from camping sometime when I get home.
Hope everyone is doing well! Thanks again for visiting our blog! :)
Love always,
Amanda

Update on life....

I am so excited to say that Scott finally got his call back from General Motors...YAY!!!! Finally things are going to get better for us financially! He started this week Monday and has been working a lot of overtime. They are actually scheduled to work every Saturday until September! Since he is a second shifter we don't see eachother much but at least when we are together we won't be worrying about money and bills anymore.
I am starting to get a little burned out on the daycare thing...I'm just trying to figure out what else I would like to do with my life. The only job I've really had has been the daycare...I've been there since I was 18! I do love my job and I would miss the kids sooooo much but the drive is so long and gas is so much and I am just getting burned out. I was told about an opening at the pharmacy Scott was working at I am considering applying there...I just keep putting it off because I am still not sure I would enjoy that kind of work. The kids keep me on my toes and I enjoy being so active at work...anything less active would probably bore me to tears. I'll quit rambling now...lol.
I got the CDs with our wedding pics...they are fantastic!! I am working on a slide show type thing for our blog...hopefully I'll get it posted tonight!
We love you all!

Our cat plays fetch!

Anyone who knows us well knows that we LOVE our pets! And you would also know that half of what we talk about has to do with our pets. Well, I have a GREAT story for all of you animal lovers!! A couple days ago Scott and I were sitting on the couch watching TV and Cricket jumped up next to us and dropped his toy mouse into Scott's lap. Scott threw the mouse down the hall and Cricket bolted after it and brought it back. So, Scott threw the mouse again and once again Cricket brought it back. He continued this 4 or 5 times in a row!!! I thought it was just a coincidence until last night. I was watching TV and threw Cricket's mouse down the hall...can you guess what he did? I threw his mouse about 10 times and each time he brought it back to me!!! I always thought he was meant to be a dog!!

Awww..

Hey again! I am pretty addicted to this blogging stuff...lol. I was looking through my picture files on the computer today...I found this picture from when Scott and I first started dating. I can't believe how young we look...especially Scott!! I get a little teary eyed when I think back to when this picture was taken...so much has changed since then! I just can't believe how much Scott and I have grown up! We have learned together, laughed together, cried together and grown together. We are so lucky to have eachother!

This second picture is Scott riding Weasel in the spring of 2006. We were out at my dad's house and he wanted to try to ride a horse. Dad and Penny let him ride Weasel because he is so calm and good-natured. It was pretty funny because Dad made Weasel trot around the pasture while Scott held on for dear life. After Scott got down he informed us all that he had never ridden a horse before...oops.
I don't know if everyone has our email addresses so I added them to the right-hand column of this blog. Thanks for visiting our blog...we love you all!
