Game Night

The other night we had a few friends over (The Shaubs and The Browns) for some chili and game playing. I made chili from a spice packet that I bought at Scott Farms here is Altus. If you come visit I will take you to the cute little shop that is filled with all sorts of dips, spices, and dinner kits that are made in Altus. Nick and I just found the place last week after I won a $10.00 gift certificate at Wives Club. The chili was pretty yummy but the talking with friends was even better! Yea for good friends!!!!


Nick and Isabella Shaub cheesing it up during game time.


Jason, Laura and Natalie during Cranium. (Which the boys barely won)




Ben and Jason relaxing in their victory!


Natalie and Isabella smiling through the painful loss!
I am counting on a rematch very soon. I am tired of hearing Nick's gloating!!!!!!

I've been tagged!

This is a blog tag game that is making the rounds. Here are the rules of the game:

  • Link to the person who tagged you. I've been tagged by Maria. (Who is one of my favorite 1st grade parents of all times with the cutest little boys!)
  • Post the rules on your blog.
  • Write 6 random things about yourself.
  • Tag 6-ish people at the end of your post.
  • Let each person know he/she has been tagged.
  • Let the tagger know when your entry is up.
I think this is pretty hard.... here goes nothing...

1. I am currently trying to teach myself how to sew. Sometimes it comes out great and other times it is a great addition to the dumpster in the alley.

2. I LOVE ebay. I did my entire wedding from ebay (wedding dress..new with tags, linens, center pieces, decorations, .....EVERYTHING) and then resold everything and made money off my wedding.

3. I played on a girls flag football team in college called...At least we are cute our freshman year (we lost every game but...at least we are cute) Then sophomore year we were Ugly, Junior year Uglier, and Senior year Ugliest. Yes, we did get better each year and even competed in the Nike flag football tournament in Dallas. The team even continued for a few years after we graduated they were called..more ugly.....

4. Every night is a theme night for dinner....
Monday = Seafood
Tuesday=Italian Day
Wednesday = Indian Day
Thursday = Japanese/Chinese Day
Friday = Mexican Fiesta Day
Saturday = All American Day
Sunday = Take your wife out to dinner day

5. I love to watch The Hills (sad isn't it!!) and I love my DVR!!!!

6. I love routine and follow the fly lady cleaning plan everyday, almost. :)

I guess those are 6 random things about good ole' me...now to tag...
