45 of 365 Be My Valentine

Most of the people who know me very well know I'm not a romantic mushy gushy person. I don't really see what all the fuss about Valentine's Day is, but I'm in the minority in my family. My husband has given up on buying me fancy gifts a mushy throw up cards. At some point when our kids were very small, he started buying them little gifts for Valentine's Day. They look forward to it each year. This year my husband left for work and came home about the time I was taking the girls to school to surprise them with their gift. My oldest is not in the picture because she was getting all jazzed up to see her "real" Valentine at school.

44 of 365 Ice Cream Ice Cream We All Scream For Ice Cream

There is only one sound in the entire world that brings my children out of their TV, iPod, laptop induced comas and that sound is the music of the ice cream truck coming through our neighborhood...

Hard to believe that a week ago we were dealing with record low temperatures and now the ice cream truck is showing up in our neighborhood.

43 of 365 Another Season Done

As a mom of two girls, I wear many hats at various times of the year. The hat that I love to wear most is the Gymnastics Mom and Basketball Mom hat. Fortunately I get to watch my youngest participate in gymnastics year round, but only get to watch my oldest play basketball 10 weeks out of the year.

This year she tried out of the Jr. High basketball team and was accepted on the "A" team. It was a rocky season, but the team finally pulled together the last 3 or 4 weeks and ended up winning 2nd place in their bracket.

On another exciting note, my daughter decided she wants to try out for a select team. Her Jr. High coach seems to think she will make the team. She will be attending try outs for the next 3 Saturdays. Please pray that she does well and pray she doesn't reinjure her ankle during try outs.

42 of 365 Scraping Ice White Trash Style

I actually took these photos over a week ago and never posted them. See in Texas it doesn't really snow or ice over too much so we are very unprepared for this kind of weather. After staying home from work for two days, I decided to try and drive to work. I warmed up my car for over 30 minutes and the ice was not melting so my dear husband decided he could help...

Yes...those are flip flops he's wearing in 10 degree weather. Yes...those are plastic shovels (we used those at the beach a year ago) he's using to scrape the ice. No...I didn't not make it to work that day.

41 of 365 Orgasm In A Bottle...Fake or Real????

So this is the latest and greatest craze in hair product. My hairstylist raves about this stuff and used it in my hair last week. I have to admit, I liked how my hair looked but doesn't your hair always look good when the hairstylist does it? So anyway, today she finally got this fantastic product in and announced it on Facebook to all of her clients. I told her I would be by the salon to buy a bottle. Then I asked how much. I won't disclose the price just because I don't want people to think I'm totally crazy for shelling out that kind of money for powder. But my statement to her when she texted me the price was, "This product better give me an orgasm when I put it on my hair!!!!"

39 of 365 Up In Smoke

Yesterday when I was driving to work, there was a HUGE warehouse fire. The smoke was awful and when I drove home at 4 pm, the building was still smoldering. Just driving through the smoke, I had a hard time breathing so I can't even imagine people having to breathe the air constantly in the surrounding area

By the way, I wouldn't recommend taking a picture while driving...LOL
