Yes, I screamed and not just because it snowed.

Video of the Day:
Grumpy Emily yelling at her mommy:


Well I had a very relaxing, enjoyable weekend. It was nice to spend some time with the kids and Jimmy, and we got a chance to go through some boxes in the basement. Jimmy took Monday off of work to spend time with Kaylee and Nathan. He took Kaylee shoe shopping and then he took Nathan to pick out a video at the rental store and to buy me some flowers. Aw... My boys love me!! Today is the first day in my 12 days of Jodi birthday surprise! Heehee.. I feel like it's Christmas!! Jimmy is so good about doing special things for me, not many husbands are. Our anniversary is coming up too, married for 8 years already I can't believe it. It feels like our relationship has really matured and I feel like we're closure then ever. The end of last year had some stressful times but we've worked through those beautifully together and it's almost like our relationship has been refreshed, it's wonderful. Tonight I've got a friend coming over to workout with me. It's much easier to work out with somebody. I'm excited to be in shape this summer, if the weather would ever warm up. This stupid weather, it was just snowing out!! Yesterday was a small taste of spring weather and it had to rain!! I wanted to take Emily on a walk in her new stroller. Boo!! Speaking of Emily she's been napping for the past three hours, sleepy girl!! She must be growing. The kids are home for spring break, I'm taking the time to work on Nathan's writing with him and having Kaylee read and write letters. It seems like there isn't much time during the day, it goes so fast.

Now onto the exciting news!!! I'm being published in a book!! Well not me but a picture I took of Emily! Actually if you want to see which one scroll down a blog or two, it's the one with her chewing on the easter egg wearing her white hat. I came across an opportunity to submit a picture online for a chance to be published in a book. Everytime I look at this picture of Emily I swear it feels like something you'd see in a magazine so I decided to choose that picture and give it a shot. I got a letter from the editor on Saturday. They choose the picture of Emily for it's composition and overall tone. They plan on publishing the picture along with a small bio on me in the 2008 best photography hard bound book! This is so wonderful I'm very happy. Yippee!!
