MARY KAY!

I have been trying to schedule to have a Mary Kay consultant visit me for a while now. So she finally got to come today. Her name is Amanda. She is my dad's best friend's wife's daughter. ;) She came from right outside of Memphis to see me. Well, Jacob and I put some stuff in storage today and I found two picture frames. I decided to get them out of storage and use them. So I went to walmart and printed two 8 x 10's of David and got some matting and some black spray paint. I came back and spray painted the frames and put the pictures in them. They were so cute. We were trying to hang them and one of them fell. So I picked it up not noticing that it was broke. Jacob was looking at it and seen that the edge was coming apart, so we got a hammer and I hammered it back. FIXED! Well, I was cleaning the glass and Jacob came over and just barely touched it to scrap something off of it and it broke. A perfect break from top left corner to bottom right corner. Then Jacob decided to make some tea for us ladies. So he was putting sugar in the tea container and had the top off the canister and the top fell on the floor and shattered. GREAT! Since Amanda was coming I decided to invite Linda over. Linda and Amanda showed up around 4:30. She explained to us a little about the products and then we did some demonstrations. Honestly, it is hard for me to be happy with something. I just am not impressed with many products. But Amanda let us try to Mineral Foundation, and I LOVED it. We then put on some Eyesicles eye shadow and I loved it also. I was very happy with all of the products that she showed us. Well, she left and Jacob and Brandon came to the house. We barbequed hot dogs and hamburgers....yum. It was a good day.

Tomorrow is the 6th grade graduation mass at work. I am excited. I am excited for the kids really. I remember all of my graduations and I remember how happy I was. I hope it turns out good!

Trip to Memphis


Today, we took a trip to Memphis to see Sean, Laurel and Mackenzie. They are the ones who showed me this website and so I decided I would try it. I had a really good time(like always). We got there about 11:30 and sat around and visited. Then they took us to a cemetary where the Crystal Shrine Grotto is located. That was really neat, not to mention that somebody was taking Bridal Shots. We then left and went to the cancer survivals park(or something like that). That was a lot of fun. We walked around and looked at the flowers then went to the lake where, of course, Sean and Jacob had to harrass the geese. We then decided to go to the "eat more chicken" restaurant. Jacob and I had to wait longer because our food was taken by another customer(whom probably did not pay, just decided they were hungry). After that we went back to Sean and Laurel's house and just visited. I learned how to play guitar hero while I was there and also learned how to do some dancing game! Sean made some Black Bean Enchiladas which were really yummy. It was a great day and I got to see a lot of pretty things. The trip home was long......like always, but we made it! Hopefully we can make it back to Memphis soon.

Sean harrassing the Geese(although it looks like he is trying to run from them, he was actually jumping at them)
