VIKING VICTORY
Tonight was codys first game and and first victory!
Vikings played the Steelers and defeated them with a final score of 28 to 6!!!!! Woot woot way to go boys!
I have feeling that this year we have finally got our selves a team. A winning team. All the boys are very hard player and dedicated to the team and have a true love of the sport!
Cody is center and defensive endl and I might add is very good at both!!!! Next game is Tuesday night at 6.
I have to also add that tomorrow will be a quite day for me from Ray cause he will probably not have a voice cause he was the loudest dad in the bleachers! Even with his back hurting him in the worst way! Sorry no pictures but I am blogging from my blackberry and can't attach a picture!
Congratulations Vikings great job defeating those steelers!

I have been meaning to post these pictures of the kids for awhile now, but i have finally found the time. So Sorry for the delay.......
Cody's first day as a 6th grader and his first year in middle school.
Ashley's Senior Year. This is her last first day of high school ever, as she likes to say all the while making me cry in the process.

Welcome to the Family Gunner!
He was given to us my Rays step mom who has had him since he was 5 weeks old. He is now almost 2 years old in October. He is a very happy and playful Schnauzer that i have had now for about 2 weeks and have become every attached to him. He is a ladies man. he sleeps with me and Ray, loves everyone and go to the office everyday with us. He favorite thing in the world is Sonic Ice, and going to the banks 9cause they give him bones)
Ray
Everyone please pray for my husband. He has injured his back worst than ever before. He still believes (as most men do) that he is super man but i feel i speak for most wives in saying that our husbands are not superman. They are human like us and do from time to time get down in some shape or fashion. My husband feels that he can still lift mountains and needs no rest to relax his pain. Last week he purchased a rear end for his 1967 Camaro RS SS that he is restoring and we went to pick it up and he carried it all the way around the building to load it in the back of the truck. Even though it was in a smaller box the weight of this box was massive. I later ask him why he didn't ask for a dolly to put it on and pull around to the truck and his reply was as expected (I didn't know i was going to hurt my back or i would have.) Classic Answer! So now he is in bed and can't move even after going to the doctor a few days ago.
So everyone please keep him in your prayers.......

I am wondering what people think about about my employees sometimes! It amazes me how certain employees that have been with me for years and some for months can act like they just started or how they on certain days just completely lose all memory of their daily job duties! Granted we are all entitled to a bad day but come on several days in a week! This statement also sometimes goes for the kids but I expect pre-teens and teens to forget but not on a daily level like my employees! I have to Say that most days my kids are better about doing their chores than my employees are about doing their job! I give applause to my husband though because he is a true leader, he can deal with situations in a very professional way sometimes not a quite way but still professional not to where I stay quite and stew about stuff he says what's on his mind and doesn't give it anymore thought! I could imagine life without him
Opening Soon!!!
I am happy to say that i will be opening a store soon in my area for vintage, uniques, antiques, crafts & collectibles. i have decided to name it
The Eagle's Nest
i am set to open at the 1st of 2010 and maybe sooner than that it all depends if i can get everything up and going.
i will have enough booths of all shapes and sizes to fill a 2400 square foot area with enough room to add more as needed.
i will try and blog about my process as i go. at this moment i am working on a logo so i can start advertising.

Slamily Reunion
On August 1st & 2nd, 2009 we traveled to what was advertised to be the
GODFATHER of all CAR SHOWS!
The Slamily Reunion 2009!
It was held in Fort Smith, Arkansas. This will be the first car show I give a not so good review this year.
the first issue that i have with the show is that i feel that the location of the show was great. It was held at the Knights of Columbus Park on Columbus Acres Road. 
My problem with this is that you didn't know what time the event registration started or ended, what time the judging started, or the time that the awards were going to be presented. My next issue is the cost of the entry and the cost for spectators to come enjoy the beauty & the craftsmanship of these rides. Show entry was $30 if you preregistered and $35 the day of the show. Spectator entry was $10 per day or $20 weekend pass (where's the break there) no matter the age of the spectator. Needless to say their were not alot of spectators. The show was centered around the younger crowd (low riders) not really a show for the classic car folks. There were over 300 + entries and 95 % of them were lowriders. Granted those are always some awesome rides just some (not all of the entries) where loud and drunken smarties. 
They didn't care who was near when they dropped their rear ends and dragged across they gravel parking lot throwing gravel everywhere and hitting several cars and scratching the paint jobs. i was not a fan of any of that. It was suppose to have numerous hot rod magazines there, but in the end was announced that only one was there before the show only for one ride and it was pre-arranged. It was supposed to be a family event and to me it was just a druck fest with nothing for a kid to do, and really nothing for a adult to do either.
There was however one contest that ray did enter. It was the jalapeno eating contest.....
The prize was for a dvd in car system. He almost won by a half of second but the guy beside him finished before he did.
he suffered for a while afterwards but i'm proud to say that he did great concerning up until about a year and a half ago he wouldn't even eat them.
The folks that attended the show with us was my buddy Ray P. & Rick P. with there black 29 sedan truck.
and he won 1st for his class and also won best interior. which i might add had a misspelling on it award(although it was cool)
reunion is not spelled correctly.

They even started making up classes just to get rid of the awards.
Bob & Wanda Crass also joined us there and they won 2nd in there class.
