BIGGEST LOSER here I come...

I joined a gym a few weeks ago... STOP LAUGHING! I have really been going too. I have loved it. I joined Lady Fitness and I love that they set you up with a personal trainer, take all of your stats so you can see your success, there are no men there to feel intimidated by, and they have TONS of different things you can do (ie: classes, machines, etc). I already feel like I have gotten my money's worth. However, I am going to earn it back! They are sponsoring a BIGGEST LOSER competition that goes for 8-wks and get this...the winner gets $1000.00. That is right, ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS. I mean do you know how many outfits that would buy? I might even take a little trip with the money once I win it. I love the show on TV, but I think that it is funny that I just sit and watch it and think I am going to change, but never do. The competition starts on the 24th and goes for 8 wks. Every week they give out other fun prizes like a free month of tanning, $100.00 gift certificate to a salon, a box of chocolates (just kidding), etc to the weekly winner and then award the overall winner money at the end. I am SO motivated. Good bye sweets and diet coke and HELLO GYM and WEIGHT WATCHERS. Wish me success, and send me your good Karma and any pointers, I will need them. I will try and keep you updated, maybe even a before and after photo in my black sports bra, NOT!!!!

My little lady in red...

I can't believe that my little girl can go to preschool this year. It has just all of the sudden hit me. She will be 3 in July and preschool will start in the fall. My Mom wasn't kidding when she told me she will grow up FAST- I have mixed emotions, but she is already excited. She tells me all of the time, "Mom, I want to go to COOL." I love her SO much! She looks so grown up, to me, in this photo.

Shrek 3-d with Aunt Colette...

Carlee got a Shrek 2 movie for Christmas and with it was a bonus movie in 3-d. So she took advantage of her Aunt Colette who gives her whatever she wants whenever she wants it and had her put the movie in and watch it with her (with the glasses on, of course). Carlee was in heaven she had her Aunt Colette watching one of her favorite movies with her while in her dress up. Does life get any better???

A few DEER neighbors of ours...

Tonight Carlee and I spotted some sweet little DEER neighbors. . . (Can you count how many there are in this photo?)

Lava's getting new slides in 2009!

We are SO excited! Over New Years we went to Lava Hot Springs and stayed in my parents little house. We were so excited when we saw parts that looked like a new slide sitting next to the road. After a little research we have discovered that Lava is getting new slides in 2009. WAHOO! They are going to go over the entrance to Lava Hot Springs and end next to the older slides that are already there. The wild waterslides will have a 60 foot vertical drop with a terminal velocity (max speed) of 38 mph! We can't wait!
