My how time flies!!!

I have been busy getting ready for my daughter's visit and time is just flying by. They will be here this Saturday and will stay until the 19th. I am so excited to see those beautiful Grand-babies!! Before they get here I want to get some Spring cleaning done, so I have been busy doing just that. James has been working on a video shelf for the living room and I am so hoping he gets it done before they get here!! Also want to re-caulk the tub/shower so it looks nice again. I'm trying to get my letter out for my crop on the 24th, but that has been hard to get to for some reason. So today I really need to do that. Then it has been so nice here that I just want to get out in the yard and do some work too. So hopefully today I can go out for a little while.
We got rid of the rabbits last night! A really nice dad got them for his son. So hopefully they will have a good life with them. We liked having them but J is just a little young yet to take care of them and so Daddy and Mommy had to do it. Was starting to be a real pain. Anyway, kept the cages so maybe when he is older and wants them he can get more. Daddy still has Spike (his goat) and Mommy and J have Freedom (our dog) so that is enough pets for now!!
Okay now for my ScrappyChatter friends here is a little of the blog challenge since I haven't kept up with the daily...so I'm catching up
Here are 4 in a row!!
First... things I am reading right now. I daily read my Bible. I want very badly to keep up with this but sometimes it is a challenge. I get up a half hour before everyone else just so I have some alone time to do this, but sometimes I get off track and have to check email first!! lol I also love reading romance novels so right now I am reading a good western romance by Susan Mallery. I love her books, especially her Desert Rogues series.
Second... 3 dreams for the future. My biggest dream would have to be a house. We live in a small 3 bedroom, 1 bath built in the 1950's. I've been here for 16 years now. I moved in when I married my late husband and now that James and I are together I just wish we could move into one that is ours. We are planning on buying some land and building someday. I can't wait. We even already have some plans for the house and he wants a big shop. So we are praying that someday we will be able to do this. Another dream for me would be a real honeymoon. Somewhere fun or exotic. Not sure where though as James doesn't want to fly too bad and I really don't want to get on a boat!!! Hmmm...this could be a problem!!! Third dream that could actually turn into a reality...catch up with all my pictures!! Have all my scrapping up to date. That would be an awesome thing to get done!!!
My favorite hobbies other than scrapping...well that's actually pretty easy. I love reading, sewing, working in my yard and decorating. Romance is my favorite read because I can get into it fast and it takes me away from everyday life. Sewing has been a past-time since I was in High School. I even made my own jeans when I a teen. Now I like making things for my guys and the grand-babies.
Fourth blog thing....I do NOT have a tattoo, nor do I think I will ever have one. Although I have thought about it a time or two. HH wants me to get my belly button pierce though and had given that some serious thoughts but I don't get into pain. I've heard it is painful!
Well that's it for me for now. Maybe I'll get caught up tomorrow. Yeah! Right!!

My daughter got her belly button pierced and she said it hurt less than when she had her ears done! I don't know how that's possible, but that's what she said...
