Wow it's been almost a month since I posted on this blog.. Hmm don't really know if I like the new background. I miss Sid. ): Speaking of Crosby did any of you watch the US spank Canada at hockey yesterday? Pretty sweet!! It was kind of sad because that was the first time I yelled against Crosby.. But whatever I guess it just means I'm to patriotic.



Did any of you notice the USA snowboarding outfits? They were nice.. I was so jealous and go figure Burton's not selling them anywhere. :-(





I love the pants.. The Jacket and pants or both Gore-tex. Let me know what you think of them? Cool? or not so Cool? Watching all the boarding was killing me. It made me want to go boarding so bad.. It brought back some good memories.. :) :(

As usually i don't got much to post. Life has been real busy. Working five-tens right now, which should turn into six-tens sometime next month. Ya not looking forward to that.. There goes my summer.:( I'm also studying to get my journeyman card for plumbing.. Talk about boring... It's really hard for me to sit down and study for it.. So please pray for me. It will be a big relief if I can get it done soon.. I'm really thankful for my job. God has blessed me beyond what I would've ever imagined.

Last week the church had a sweetheart banquet for valentines day. So there was a couple little kids that we got to babysit at my house..


This Little guy is named Orren. Hmm don't know if that's how you spell it.. He was so cute and sweet.. I would've just held him forever.

He was crawling by the couch I was laying on so I picked him up and laid him on my lap and it for some reason he just laid there and started laughing. I wanted to keep him... Oh well some day I'll have my own. Hopefully.. OH Ya by the way I got to hold Logan again today.. That little guy is adorable.. He's so small and I love his black hair. I'm so happy for Mike and Kassandra.

This is Joy and ya as you can see I didn't get a vary good picture. She's kind of on the wild side so just getting this picture was hard.
We had another little visitor too. We found this puppy scratching at our back door. It was really cold out and he was covered in ice sickles. So us being dog lovers let him in to warm up. AND YA the next thing I know he's in bed with me!! ;-)
We found his master the next day. I guess he had been missing for four days when we found him.
I guess I'll end this post with a this really cool movie.
This video shows the winner of " Ukraine 's Got Talent", Kseniya Simonova, 24, drawing a series of pictures on an illuminated sand table showing how ordinary people were affected by the German invasion during World War II. Her talent, which admittedly is a strange one, is mesmeric to watch.The images, projected onto a large screen, moved many in the audience to tears and she won the top prize of about $130,000.00She begins by creating a scene showing a couple sitting holding hands on a bench under a starry sky, but then warplanes appear and the happy scene is obliterated.It is replaced by a woman's face crying, but then a baby arrives and the woman smiles again. Once again war returns and Miss Simonova throws the sand into chaos from which a young woman's face appears.She quickly becomes an old widow, her face wrinkled and sad, before the image turns into a monument to an Unknown Soldier.This outdoor scene becomes framed by a window as if the viewer is looking out on the monument from within a house.In the final scene, a mother and child appear inside and a man standing outside, with his hands pressed against the glass, saying goodbye.The Great Patriotic War, as it is called in Ukraine , resulted in one in four of the population being killed with eight to 11 million deaths out of a population of 42 million.Kseniya Simonova says: "I find it difficult enough to create art using paper and pencils or paintbrushes, but using sand and fingers is beyond me.. The art, especially when the war is used as the subject matter, even brings some audience members to tears. And there's surely no bigger compliment."
Please take time out to see this amazing piece of art.
