It will probably be awhile now before I blog again! We are headed to Florida for Thanksgiving! We are going to a family members home in Clearwater, Florida...Dave and Lucy Burggraff (Cory's cousins) and then we are going to Sea World and Disney World!!! We are soooo excited and Gavin is so super excited to see all the characters!! So be looking for some pictures from that....I'm sure there will be a TON!!! We love you all and hope ya'll have a Happy Turkey Day!!

I got tagged...

So I got tagged...twice actually! By http://whitelygirls.blogspot.com/ (Lindsey) and her lovely husband Rocky http://apacherocky.blogspot.com/ . So now I have to write 7 random or weird facts about me....so here it goes!

1: I played a country western singer in the musical "Footloose" my senior year of high school!

2: I share my birthday with my Grandpa Joens....my "twin!"

3: I used to have really long hair! I miss it! Sometimes I really wonder why I ever cut it in the first place....?? Ever since I first cut it after being that long it has never been that long again....*sigh* maybe someday! (It's kinda hard to tell...I had to scan all these pictures...it was the days before digital cameras...or at least before I had one!)

4: This may not come as a surprise to many....but I have had my hair MANY different colors....sorry I don't have pictures for this...I'll have to dig them up from somewhere. But I have had yellow, light pink, red, dark brown, black low-lites,.....and 3 of those were all before I went to beauty school!!! Now, I think I'll just stick to blonde...it's more me! (No blonde comments....DAD!)

5: I sang "The Rose" (all by myself) in front of my whole school (about 2,000 plus people) for the winter formal coronation. I wasn't really scared at all because I couldn't see anyone....just blackness...so it made it easier!

6: My sister and I are very random....we like to make up our own songs, and we also make up our own renditions of songs already written. We also have a christmas tradition where we put EVERYTHING we got for christmas on and take pictures.

7: When I was little (I think I was like 7? Mom, you'll have to confirm that) I ran into the back of a truck on my bike. My sister and I were racing...her around one block and I went around the other. I was too busy looking down at my feet and not watching where I was going. *SMACK* I slammed into the back of a truck. I didn't get knocked out or anything...but felt the blood instantly and started screaming for help! Luckily my cries were heard by the owner of the truck (who was a paramedic). He and his wife came out and tended to me until my mom heard it was me and came running through the yards! We went to the ER and they sent us to Childrens Hospital....I ended up with a bunch of stitches and a HUGE goose egg on my head to show for it!

Okay....so now I have to tag 7 random people....however 3 of the ones I was going to tag already have done this....so I will do as many as I can!

My mini project for Gavin's room

I have been wanting to make this for Gavin's room since he has been born, but never got to it until last weekend! I'm so glad I did it! It was very easy to do and a very inexpensive decoration! I will be making one for the next baby too!!

I will make one for anyone who wants one! :0) But there will be a fee! I am a professional now!
