Back to school

After a mad dash to move my completely ready room....here are a few pictures of what it looks like now.
My coat/backpack rack that I've had for several years now. This thing is a life saver!

Loads and Loads of kleenexes that will ALL get used!
We are brushing our teeth this year. And yes that is duct tape holding that hook on:)
Emma all ready by her desk with her super cute dress that Grandma Cindy bought for her on!
With her teacher, Mrs. Replogle!
Emma reported that her day was great and keeps telling me about small things that happened through out the day.
Colby unpacking his bag.
And with his teacher, Mrs. Frady. He loved his first day and is excited about all his new textbooks!
We'll see what tomorrow brings....

Two Great Discoveries

I made two discoveries that might change my life and I decided to share them with you.
Discovery #1: ALWAYS shop at Hobby Lobby on Saturday evening. They are getting ready to switch the signs over to the next week's ad, but still honoring this week's ad. Basically, you get two week's worth of great deals!! Did you know that?! Change my life:)
Discovery #2: When eating ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery...order the Monster Cookie. It tastes just like monster cookie dough. They make it with oatmeal cookie dough ice cream and mix in chocolate chips, peanut butter, and m&m's. It is the yummiest thing I have EVER eaten.....EVER!!!
So there you have it....life altering information!!

Picture Pickin'


Hello family~
Recently I had pictures taken of our family in a quick mini session. I am not ordering any wallets. This was more to just have a keepsake to hang on the wall. I will be ordering tomorrow, so let me know if you want anything!
I can't remember how to link so go here.....http://mrsreplogle.webs.com/apps/photos/album?albumid=9556423

Slippin'

I threw a surprise party for one of my bestest friends in the whole world. It went really well and she didn't know anything until we pulled into the driveway. The BIG surprise was the huge water slide her husband and Vance made her. It was awesome.
Here are some candids of the afternoon.
I have very few pictures of Colby because he was shooting down that thing all the time!
A family photo.
Emma finally warmed up to it.
Mom finally gave it a go.
Natalee of course loved it, but it sure was scary taking her and keeping her safe.
I think Vance went down a 100 times. He was the official tester.
Happy Birthday Corin!
