Well, I've done awful with my a picture a day. So I will need to try this again next year.

Today was a busy day at Jacob's high school car wash. We ended up raising almost $1200 though. Now if he'll make the team again this year.

Shelby has out grown her orthodotics so we had to go visit the foot doctor. Well, she for sure needed new inserts. Plus he said that her growth plates hadn't closed yet. YIKES - she's in a men's 9.5 to 10.

This weekend was full of soccer. Both girls participated in the Classic FC Spring Cup while Jacob had a scrimmage. Here is Morghan playing with the Chaos team. This is not her regular team. They asked her to play with them because they were going to play up to the U-11 bracket which meant 2 more players on the field. Morghan had a nice time.

2009-02-22T09:30:00.001-08:00

I've decided that instead of just sitting at soccer practice that I would dig out my cross-stitch that I've started a LONG time ago. While it's light, I cross-stitch and then as the light goes away, I read. This is a part of a project for Shelby. It's a fairy butterfly. I'll keep you updated with the progress.

This is from Sunday's game in Phoenix. The storm that was moving through Arizona hit us in the afternoon. We didn't get much rain or any snow in Albuquerque, but we did get a TON of wind. It was like a dust bowl out at the soccer complex.

This was some of the weather Mark drove through on his way home Sunday afternoon. I'm glad I didn't go. Jacob, Morghan and I had a nice weekend here.

38-365

2009-02-16T13:52:00.000-08:00

Although these are pictures from the Arizona tournament Shelby was at, I was doing the same thing with Jacob here at home. But Jacob didn't get to play under the lights. It was very cold in Albuquerque this weekend.

37-365

2009-02-16T13:47:00.000-08:00

This is a picture from my Aunt Florence's porch. The farm across the road has some cows. I know if we had brought Rosco he would have loved those cows. Today was a busy day of funeral preparations for Grandmother. I'll miss you grandmother!

26-365

2009-02-02T06:57:00.001-08:00

This morning I got a call from my mom saying that Grandmother was not doing well and that we should head down to Roswell. This is a picture outside of Encino. The kids and I couldn't figure out what the smoke was from. It didn't smell like a fire. Who knows what it was.

25-365

2009-02-02T06:55:00.001-08:00

Today we had a birthday party for the girls. They got to go bowling with several of their friends. They sure enjoyed it!

24-365

2009-02-02T06:53:00.001-08:00

I don't think I have a picture with just me and the girls. So Jacob got to practice his photography skills for our photo shoot.

2009-01-08T17:38:00.001-08:00

The never ending pile of laundry. I think Shelby hasn't done laundry in several weeks--she sure had a TON of clothes this week.

2009-01-07T14:50:00.000-08:00

Last night Mark started replacing the disposal. The disposal was installed, but it didn't get hooked up. He didn't buy all the parts he needed. Am I surprise? No!! So he comes home today and starts working on it again. Well, lo and behold, he still doesn't have everything. I just hope he can finish it up soon because we can't run the dishwasher (which of course needed to be run before this happened). He also now needs to replace the board that was underneath the sink because, as you can see in the picture, it is now ruined.

6/365

2009-01-06T18:48:00.000-08:00

While Mark was gone over the weekend, I noticed a pool of water underneath the sink. I got to looking and figured out that the disposal was leaking. Tonight, after he got home from work, he looked at it so we could go get a new one. The old one ended up getting a whole in it. Very strange. So this is our new disposal still in the box.

Monday's are guitar lessons for Jacob and Shelby. Jacob plays the electric guitar in addition to the acoustic guitar. Both of them love guitar. Jacob got a new song today, Stray Cat Strut by the Stray Cats and then Shelby got Classical Gas by Eric Clapton.

So far so good about keeping up. But, hey, it's only the 4th.

Today's picture is of the first snowfall of 2009. I'm sure it won't be long before it's all gone.

2009-01-03T18:38:00.001-08:00

Why a tea pot? When the weather started getting cold, Morghan got in to a tea/cider/hot chocolate kick. For Christmas, Mark and I decided to get her a tea pot. She LOVES to make tea for everyone. So on a daily basis we get asked, "Do you want me to make you some . . ." Gotta love her.

2009-01-03T16:30:00.000-08:00

A remote you ask. Yes, the second one for the week. Our other remote is dying. The first one wouldn't let you work the television, but it would the satelite. The second, just the opposite. So now I need to return the second one. Today I went and got a third one. And yes, the old saying is true--third times a charm. Thanks goodness. DH will be happy when he gets home tomorrow night.

I am starting a new project for the year. It's called Project 365. I am to take one picture each day for a year.

This is my thoughts on day 2.

I am not a cat person. Never have been. Then why do I have 5 cats. Ask my cat-loving husband. This is a picture of my favorite (if you want to call him that) cat, Sammy. He always has a dumb look on his face. Poor thing.
