I'm stylin' now!

So, I had my bow custom painted in December. Craig painted the riser and the stabilizer to match. Right after this, I got two new stabilizers and an extension for my main stabilizer. He took those Sunday night and painted them to match my original paint job. It looks SOOOOOO awesome! Thanks, Craig! You ROCK! I shot really well last night. I had a couple arrows where I thought "What the heck???" but other than that, it was a good night. Wonder how I'll do tonight? We shall see.

Oh! Check out what Heather Roselli has coming out at The Digi Chick on Thursday!!! This kit is SUPER cool!


And the Emoticon Add-On to go with it! This stuff is da bomb!


Here's a layout I did with it.




And my girl Fee has a bunch of new stuff coming out as well! I'll just show her kit:




Make sure you head on over to The Digi Chick on Thursday to pick this schtuff up!

Anyway...it's still cold. I'm still waiting on spring. Have I ever mentioned I HATE winter???

Welp, I'm off to get under a blanket! Happy Tuesday!

Spring Break!!!

Yeah...whatever...

I'm off of school for the next week. It's snowing. Bah. The girls are still in school though, so I've got the house to myself. Boy am I gonna clean! After I finish this post, of course *wink*...

The National Archery Association National Championships are this weekend. Cora's shooting Friday night. I'll be sure to get a lot of photos, unless I'm coaching her. Andrew gets SOOOOOOOO freaky nervous when she shoots in tournaments. He's not able to focus enough to coach her. So, I step in in these situations. You should see the poor guy. He looks like he's ready to throw up or pass out. We can never tell which one. Heheh...
I don't get as nervous about her shooting. Of course I want her to do well, but let's face it; she's only 7. She'll be shooting against 11 and 12 year olds who are much taller than she is...Yes, size does matter. If she is taller, she can pull more weight. If she can pull more weight, her arrows will fly faster. If they fly faster, they are more accurate. This tournament is mainly for experience for her. She'll get to see other girls shooting recurve, which she doesn't see much of. There are FIVE of us at our club who shoot recurve. Me, Cora, two other older girls and sometimes Sarah (she's not as into it as Cora, and only shoots when she feels like it. Hey, she's 5).
Anyway...Cora's a bit intimidated about this tournament since it's the "Nationals". If anyone would like to send her well wishes, leave a comment and I'll send you her email address. She'd LOVE some warm fuzzies before the tournament! I'm SO proud of her composure and maturity. It's hard to remember she's still a little kid. She's also going to be shooting at another national tournament in Lousiville, KY at the end of March. I'll be shooting in that one as well. That's gonna be SO much fun!

Ok...I'm outtie...

Have a great week!
