The Dollhouse is done!

Remember the dollhouse well she is done (for the most part there is some detail work to be done)

Johnny glued each individual shingle just  look at all the detail
I just love her I am planning a contest involving this beauty next week so be sure to check in
Having a better day today just in a funk this week I feel like I am walking around in circles getting nothing done. Going to see Andrew this afternoon I will be sure to take some pictures he is growing like a weed.

Hugs

I am a little OCD

The Kittens

Introducing Elephant aka Ellie



Scooter aka Scoot
Bootsy Collins aka Boots

They were a week old on Sunday they are so cute we love them, Ellie is the leader her eyes are open they other two are working on it. The kids are getting attached I am alittle worried.
BTW: The driving age in Georgia is 16 but you have got to have your learners for a year and a day and Brinsley did not get them until Feb. so she will be almost 17 before she drives which I am perfectly happy with lol!

Hugs,

Brinsley didn't want the big party for her 16th but she did want us to take her out so we kinda of surprised her with the whole family going out to eat plus some friends and minus one of my sisters and two of Johnny's brother's.

Brinsley is not happy with the singing to her

But she was a pretty good sport (my daddy is laughing it up in all the pictures).Tracey's back, Me, Reese the Bff, Brinsley, My dad, My mom, Robyn, Nick, Shelley and Aaron you can't see them, Johnny's dad, Johnny's step mom, Noah, Laura Beth The back of my head lol

Prom Tag

Ok folks you know this means I love ya'll because I can't believe I am doing this tag thanks Jen
just kidding this was my Jr. Prom no I did not marry him, he was my boyfriend until I met Johnny. I could not find any of Johnnys prom pictures but he actually went with one of my friends. Ok I don't know what I was thinking with the hair or the dress and yes I look twelve (I was 17). Now ya'll all know why I look so young still and so much like Brinsley.


Ok here are the rules:
❶ Leave me a comment guessing which Year this photo was taken...(yes the wrong guess might hurt our friendship...LOL...totally just kidding!) I will post the correct year in a few days after a few guesses come in...how fun!

❷ If I TAG you...DIG up your old Prom picture...post it and lets guess the date too...(if you really are that self-conscience and don't want us to know the date...maybe we can guess the decade?)
If you are married to your Prom date let us know!
If you are not...try to post a Prom picture of your Prom & a second picture of your husbands prom too...let us know where each of your Dates are now...and their relationship status!! (and of course YOU are way cuter than his Prom date!)
If you are Single...let us know where your Prom date is now!

❸ I am gonna TAG some people...and then those taggers need to keep it going by tagging 5 other people! I can't wait to see all of your pictures! Fun huh!?

Ok I am tagging

April @ Straight for the heart

Liz @ Tidbits From Liz

Kami @ No Biggie

Lindsey @ Learning to be a wife

Ok this was so fun! Thanks Jen!

This is a test

Outside my bathroom window

I was in the bathroom aka kitten nursery at the moment and this is what I saw out the window so I had to run grab my camera. We have had rain and thunderstorms for two days I am feeling a little cabin fever coming on...I have a lot of projects going on I have been trying to finish but really I just want to crawl on the couch with a quilt and nap or read.

Kitten questions: No we are not keeping them all if I lived in the country maybe but we are slap dap in the middle of town.

But Noah has named them I know this is not good the grey one is Elephant (don't ask), the other two are Booties Collins and Scooter. Where he came up with these names I have no idea I think Booties Collins is a jazz musician I don't know.
I am out going to get something done and resist the call of the couch.
Carrie


Update: Last week I won a 20 dollar giftcard from Target at a giveaway over at Kally's guess what was in the mail yea I can't wait to spend it thanks Kally!

I am a bad mommy

We didn't go looking for a kitty Caleigh just found us and we love her she is alittle crazy so she fits right in...well this little hoochie kitty got herself preggers. So Easter morning she had three of these cute little things in my closet. Now do ya'll remember what my closet looked like well needless to say I had to drag everything out to get to them.

She is such a good little mommy I was concerned that I would be taking care of her babies but she is so good!
I feel like a bad mom to Caleigh but I didn't even know she was old enough to have babies because she so little. Well she has a vet appointment coming up soon!
