Well it was an extremely busy day at work, Irene and I did not even get to go work out!!! :( Thankfully she picked me up something to eat at my desk because I was not able to even leave to do that. But all in all it was a good day and I finished one of my medical records projects after 4 days and I was thankful for that!
When I left work, I went and picked up Kyle and then headed towards home. I stopped by a yahoo garage sale person's house and picked up a bunch of High School Musical purses and she is going to be so excited when she sees them! Once I got home, I changed into my workout clothes and headed out for our nightly walk. Grant, Austin, Jim and I with Kyle in his wagon. When we got back, I watched Wednesday's Young and the Restless while Jim was loading the truck for his trip this weekend. Then I made ground turkey tacos and refried beans for dinner. After dinner, Kyle got to play some more before he went to bed.
I then watched Thursday's Y & R, So You Think You Can Dance and two episodes of Judge Judy! hehe I then passed out and new nothing until this morning when the alarm went off.
Been busy most of the morning so far...but more about Friday later today! lol
Everyone have a great day and enjoy your lunch!

Do we see a pattern here???
Yesterday I stayed focused at work and got a lot accomplished. Irene and I went to the Peabody Athletic Club for our workouts during lunch and it was so refreshing! I did one mile standard workout on the eliptical while watching Judge Hatchett, then I moved right onto my beloved ab machine and did 75 more reps with 60lbs and then we hit the showers. We had to walk over to the bank and Family Dollar and then came back to the office. I had a weight watchers roasted turkey w/ gravy & garlic potatoes for lunch at my desk and plugged away again with those medical records!
After work, I headed out to Old Navy to look for our annual 4th of July t-shirts to take on our trip and to celebrate Kyle's 2nd birthday but left empty handed. Not a great selection this year and none of the shirts were in Kyle's size! So I will be looking for those elsewhere this year. :(
I then met up with Jim and the boys at the softball fields on Appling for Jim's softball game. It was a great game and we won 14-13! Go St. John's!!!!! Afterwards, the team went to East End Grill in Bartlett for a great dinner. I had a southwestern grilled chicken quesadilla and it was so yummy! The service could have been faster, but we enjoyed the fellowship with friends we have not seen in a while. After we got home and I had picked up Shelly & Ryan from the neighbors, we sat down with the kids about all the places that we have to pick from to eat while at Disneyworld and they each got to pick their top 5 in a "secret ballot". It was a lot of fun and then Jim presented them with the T-shirts that he had made with "Cacy Crew" on the front and pictures of the 7 dwarfs on the back and each of us had our name attached. Grant is Sleepy; Ryan is Sneezy; Austin is Bashful; Shelly is Doc (she wants to be a Vet); Kyle is Dopey (he knew he could not complain or be offended at the age of 2); Jim is Happy (inside joke from co-worker when coming up with this surprise for us) and yes, that leaves me as Grumpy!!!! Everyone knows that is not the case with me, but it did make me chuckle at the irony of it all.
After we got the kids settled, they decided that they wanted to get the leaves out of the pool in hopes of it being ready to swim this weekend and I watched "So You Think You Can Dance" and then I pooped out! (it was after midnight!)
Have a great day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAITLIN!!
Just wanted to wish one of my close friends a very Happy Birthday today....she is a young 24! Hard to believe there is 10 years difference in us, but she is the sweetest, most helpful person you will ever meet. I miss her dearly since she works out East now and I am still downtown. But we both love our jobs and that is a GREAT thing!
Luv ya girlie!
Luv ya girlie!
Yet again...
I was too tired to get on the computer last night so I am doing it now!
Yesterday I was super busy at work, but Irene, Kathy and I did go to the Peabody Athletic Club for our workouts during lunch and it was fabulous! I did one mile aerobic workout on the eliptical while watching Judge Hatchett, then I moved to my beloved ab machine and did 75 reps with 60lbs, then it was on to the arms with 25 reps of 40 lbs and I finished up with about 10 minutes on the stationary bike before hitting the showers. Came back to the office and had a weight watchers hamburger steak & mac-n-cheese for lunch at my desk and worked worked worked!
Went to pick up Kyle from my parents home and he watched Yo Gabba Gabba during our 1/2 hour commute. When we got home, daddy was waiting on us and I quickly changed back into my workout clothes and we went for our nightly walk. Boy my legs were feeling the earlier workout, but it sure felt good! We then had deli sandwiches for dinner and we looked over different details from Disneyworld that we need to get with the kids tonight so we can start choosing where we want to eat on our trip in a few weeks.
Kyle went down after our nightly bedtime routine without a hitch and then Jim and I proceeded to watch "Moment of Truth", "Hell's Kitchen" and "The Mole". Ryan and Shelly had been at VBS at the church down the street from us with the girls across the street.
I was completely and utterly exhausted, so I turned in after our shows and slept great till that dang alarm went off this morning!!!!! LOL
Have a great day everyone!

So the first night did not quite go the way I wanted...
Ok, so I had every intention to get on the computer last night and really do this thing right, and ...
We got home and I folded 4 loads of laundry and watched our tv shows after putting Kyle to bed and then I was just too durn lazy to get in the office on the computer and blog away.
I had a great day at work yesterday and learned how to file a Notice of Removal from one court to Federal Court. I kept busy for sure and felt like even though I was busy that I did not get a whole lot accomplished! Of course, we have to remember it was Monday!
After work, I headed out to Munford to meet my family at the Skating Rink for Shelly's Softball party. It was a long hot ride, because my air is acting up again in my van and we really don't have the time to get it fixed before we leave on vacation. They had pizza, sodas (diet for me of course) and yummy yummy CAKE! Kyle had a blast just running around the rink with all the kids that were skating. I got some cute videos and great pics of Shelly, her team and her coach as well as of Ryan and Kyle playing together. (will post pics later)
Jim took Kyle home while I got Shelly, Ryan and her best friend Harley together to head home as well. When we got home I changed clothes and we got ready for our evening walk. Kyle was in his wagon and we tried to take Mudzie, our new little puppy...
...but she was for some reason scared of the noise that the wagon made while on the pavement, so she got left behind at home. We then picked up Jodi (Harley's sister) along the way and she joined Kyle in the wagon. We walked a little over a mile and the breeze was great! Clouds were rolling in and it was getting dark because we got home so late from the skating rink. When we arrived home, Kyle got ready for bed and we had our normal family routine of our night-time prayer: "Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep, and if I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take. God Bless Mommy & Daddy & brothers & sister, puppy dogs, kitty cats, the fish and the guinea pigs. AMEN!"(of which Kyle then says: MAA MEN!) Then he gives mommy kisses and daddy kisses, tells mommy "luv you", tells daddy "luv you" and then one more round of kisses before getting into his big boy toddler bed with his blankie, cup of milk and his night-time cd on.
Shelly, Harley, Jodi & Ryan played and got to stay up until midnight. Jim and I watched Gladiators and the Bachelorette while I was folding clothes. The storm finally rolled in and we got a good couple of hours of heavy steady rain. My flowerbeds are very thankful. Then as Jim fell asleep, I watched my Young and the Restless before drifting off myself. Thank goodness for TIVO!
Hope you all have a great day at work and I will post more soon!

Hello Everyone
This is my first real blog besides me trying to do some on myspace. I think its a great way to keep people up to date with our family and to keep up with great friends too. I will try to keep this up nightly as a diary so-to-speak, but at least on the weekends if that fails.
Our family is looking forward to our trip to Disneyworld in a RV soon and I am currently busy at work.
