Friday was our scrapbooking night. I managed to get 2 pages done and a few cards, I have about 40 more cards to make to have my cards ready... I better get busy :o) The pages that I did turned out awesome and took me forever to do. I will take pics and post them on the pics part of my page, and the cards also took me some time and turned out pretty cute too. Hopefully I will have some time in the next few days to get more done, so that I can get them sent out in the first part of December. If only I had more time....
We have most of our Christmas shopping DONE!!!! WHOO HOOO!!!!! We went to Old Navy to get some clothes for us all, and then we went to Toys R Us and managed to finish off our older 2 except for their games to go with the GameBoys. We bought our oldest son a scooter, helmet/knee pads/ elbow pads, a couple of games, the Hulk movie, the Gameboy Advance and accesories, and blanket... our oldest daughter got the Gameboy Adavance and accesories, Barbie with a baby, Cabbage Patch Kid, Disney blanket and a couple of games... our youngest daughter got a Cabbage Patch Kid, magnadoodle, care bear, Leap Frog Cash Register, Care Bear Castle and the Disney blanket. We still have a few things to figure out on what to get her and the our youngest son has been the hardest, we got him a Fisher Price shape bus that is really cool :o), Leapfrog see and learn driver, disney blanket and Thing1 and Thing 2 from the Cat in the Hat. I have NO idea what else to get him.... I even have it all wrapped and ready for the tree (which is not even up yet) We finished my MIL and SIL (scrapboooking stuff for them, they were easy to take care of!), now we have my mom, brother,Step-FIL, nephew and BIL... My brother is going to pick a watch, so that is easy, my step-FIL is going to get a shirt and tie, my BIL is going to get DVD's and I have no idea what kind of thing we are going to get my nephew, but it should not be too hard, I am thinking Super Heroes or GI Joe for him. My mom is going to be the hardest but I am thinking maybe a maincure, pedicure or a massage for her. Then of course there is what I am going to get my hubby, I have NO idea what to get him yet... He is soo hard to shop for!!! I have a little while yet to get his stuff done...
On Sunday I decided to go to church with my mom. It is a Korean church and is rather interesting. They have a translator for those of us that do not speak Korean and the student pastor gave a short sermon, which was pretty good, and then afterwards they had a huge feast of Korean food and Thanksgiving dinner. It was really good. Then we went to the Korean grocery store to buy my grandma her stuff to make Winter Kimchee which is going to be awesome!! :o) My poor husband will never come around me again!! Hubby hates the smell of the stuff and hates the smell on me, so he tends to stay away :o( But the stuff is soo good that I cannot stay away from it :o)
Jeff, is under the weather and will be posting at some point, but has got the crud that is going around and is pretty sick, so he will eventually show himself... you just have to get the old, feeble folk time to heal :o) (just kidding Jeff!!)
Today is my dads birthday so we will celebrate by taking him out to Red Lobster and giving him his birthday/Christmas present. ( an awesome red Farm-all tractor from the Franklin Mint) Then tomorrow is a trip to the hospital for my girlfriends son who is going through his second ear surgery, poor baby has gone through soo much already and has been such a champ about it all!! He was born without his right ear and they are constructing one for him out of his cartilidge and skin. It is what they call a cauliflower ear right now. They did the initial work the first time, this one is going to actually give him an ear, they are going to do a couple more skin graphs and stretch out the cartlidge and put the skin on it and he will then have an ear... Last time he was in the hospital for several days because of how sick the meds made him, so we are expecting a few days this time too. They are hoping he will be home for THanksgiving, but I highly doubt it. He has to be able to hold down food for a certain amount of time before they release him, which makes sense... So, I will be up there tomorrow and probably Wednesday to visit with him.
The Rams managed to pull off another win in overtime, which again is credited to JEFF WILKINS.... You are the SHNITZ WILKINS!!!! He managed to tie the game for us in the last 4 seconds of the game then managed a great field goal in Overtime for the win!!! 49 yards... Impressive WILKINS!!! :o) Of course the refs had some really crappy calls!! There was one against Tinoisamoa for some BS call of excessive cheering, or whatever it is called, which they did a replay and there was nothing there, so that cost us, then there was one for one of our guys putting his arm up to block the sun, I have no idea what the call was called, but oh, well we still managed to win, Bluger did throw 4 interceptions, one of them turning into a 70 yrd touchdown for the Cardinals. There is the fact that we lead the league in turnovers... 32 most in the League, wow... that is something to be proud of :oP BUT, we are in FIRST place in our Division, so that makes me really really happy :o) Next weeks game is here against the Vikings, then the Browns, seahawks, bengals and then finally the Lions. I think that if the guys get focused and not too confident about their game then we should be able to beat the rest of these teams. Minnesota will probably be our biggest competition, Browns should be an easy win, Seahawks will be challenging, Bengals will be pretty challenging and then the Lions should be a gimme for the Rams... Hopefully it all goes our way and we can make it to the playoffs and the Superbowl!!! :o) The Blues are also doing good, we are still in first place, which is awesome :o) We are 12-5 and 1 point ahead of the wings... hopefully we can hold on to our lead and keep doing good!! :o) Oh and of course hubby is extremely happy that the OK SOONERS are still undefeated, and number 1. They beat Texas Tech 56-25.
On to other things... I really did not want to talk about the Michael Jackson thing, but I am going to say SHAME ON THE PARENTS!!!! WHY WOULD YOU LET YOUR CHILD HANG AROUND SOMEONE LIKE HIM???? He had charges against him 10 yrs ago for child molestation!!! SHAME ON YOU for letting your child near that monster!!! I do not care that he is rich, famous and has that Neverland playland... it is the same concept of offering a child candy to get them where you want them, he just did it on a much grander scale.... I think that Michael Jackson needs to be castrated and kept away from all children!! But I also think that the parents should get into trouble, your child is NOT worth the risk!! Just because he is famous and has money does not mean that it is ok to put your child at risk!!! KNOWING that he had those child molestation charges against him 10 yrs ago and managed to settle out of court does not mean that he is an ok person!!! SHAME ON THE PARENTS!!! Shame on Michael Jackson too, you sick, NASTY, horrible person. Shame on him for preying on innocent chidren. He needs to be put away for good! Ok, done with that... just had to get that out of my system...
the VA jury decides that Muhammad needs to be put to death with the DC sniper shootings... glad to hear. Capital punishment is a good thing. OK, I think that I am done for now... I am sure that I will have more to update later on... How was everyone elses weekend??
