Well finally I am back, seems like my blog is the always the last thing on my list. I finally got done with the senior thank you cards for the businesses that donated to the "alcohol free" party. The seniors get together the night of graduation at the bowling alley, and they play all sorts of games, eat pizza, sing karoke, guitar hero, and win cool prizes from the donating businesses. It's a way to keep them safe for the night. Since the school mascot is Pirates, I bought this Changito set to make the cards. I had to make like 75 of them, and luckily they came together really easy. I took the image to work with me at the gym, and colored them in between helping customers and working out. Now I need to make another 50 or so for my daughters thank you cards for graduation gifts. Although I am using another image from the set. I might just get some use out of this set, since I still have two boys going throught the same school.
Life is pretty easy right now, I am helping Shaun with construction projects the rest of the summer instead of finding a part-time job, just seemd to make more sense this year. College starts next month, and then my time will be spent finishing up my last year for my ASN. I am sending Charlee off to college at the end of this month, and I'm not looking forward to that at all. I guess I wanted her to grow up and be her own person, I just didn't think it would be so hard to let go. Luckily she is just 3 hours away, and she knows people down in Butte. She is just looking forward to playing softball again. We already went to a pre-orientation and registration, and she is starting to get excited and scared all at the same time. Her schedule is pretty easy the first semester, which is really good, between having to work part-time and being able to practice and do homework I didn't want her to be too overwhelmed.
She has yet to delcare a major, which is okay. I think she just needs to find her niche. OKay so thats enough babbling, I got to go and get some stuff done. Catch up with you later!
Well here they are. I am beyond excited to have won the blog hop from

Another long time since I have posted. I am out of school for the summer, and have one year left to get my ASN degree for nursing. I plan on going back and getting my BSN and then my MSN, but lets just do one year at a time. I am so happy to finally have some time to myself, but I must confess I am rather bored with not having to study and write papers, and do clinicals. I need to find a job for the summer, well one that peaks my interest at least. I am working until July 8th at the gym where I work-out, but that is only to cover shifts for the personal trainer. It is not something I want to do full-time.
I can honestly say that this weekend in Butte for the Montana All-Star softball games were one of the funnest ever. It was so laid back and relaxing, although sightly competative. In the picture is Charlee (3rd from left), and the rest of her team. The teams were named after mines in Butte, and her team was called Team Steward. This was the first year and the whole organizaton deserves a round of applause on a job well done. Charlee's team took third place, but believe me there were no losers this weekend.
It's been a long time since I posted. Life has been crazy busy. But I couldn't pass up the chance to "toot" about my daughters (Charlee is in blue) selection to the Montana All-Star Softball games in Butte this weekend. She was nominated by her high school coach, and then picked by a selection committee, and that was from the entire state. I am super proud. She is hoping to get picked for a college scholarship to play softball, and has a good chance, since they alerted about 62 local colleges of the tourney. Another great news tidbit is that she was selected as 1st Team All Conference Pitcher this year. Not bad for her first year as a pitcher, she finished the season with 7 wins, no losses, and 3 saves. Also in the picture is Sarah (3rd Base), and Rochelle (1st Base). All Polson Lady Pirates, and all selections to play in the All-Star Games.
