Ahhh...

New Blog clothes! I like to change stuff around once in a while. Also, if you'd like me to add you to my Blog Stalker, leave your blog link in a comment. I'm looking for new blogs to stalk!

Not much going on today. We're goin' to the bow club for the league. Big shock, huh? Seems like we're always there. I'm actually shooting really well. Figures, since we're about to change everything so I can go to stronger limbs. That's ok though. I'll be able to shoot longer distances and get in some of the fun outdoor tournaments next year.

Here's a layout I did last night for Justine (bellbird). It's her daughter Alyssa. I had a blast using her photo!

Crappy Weekend

So like, Friday night I spent in the ER. I was having a terrible pain in my right side, and of course thought it might have been my appendix. So, I went in to get it checked. The ER was the busiest I've EVER seen it. I've never waited more than half an hour to get into a room, but this night the wait was three hours. Fun. Luckily the pain went away after some IV fluids and dose of Potassium, as my K was pretty low. Not cool.

Anyway, all is well, and I'm back to normal.

Andrew did really well at the State Shoot this weekend. He didn't win a medal, but now he's nore determined to practice harder and get better for next year. I shot my best game ever yesterday afternoon. I was pretty geeked.

The girls and I are going to walk around their new school today to get a feel for where things are. School starts September 5, which is Cora's birthday. She's excited to be going to school on her birthday this year.

Welp, I'd better get this done so I can start on the laundry. YAY!

Friday, August 04, 2006

Friday again!

This week flew by! The girls had VBS, and I was commissioned to be a leader for Cora's class. We had a total blast! I had a few kids who were in my Sunday School class. A bunch of fun. I'm sure tired though.

Tomorrow is the State Shoot at the bow club. I'm going to help out with the shoot, so I'll be gone all weekend. Andrew's going to shoot in the tournament. He's pretty nervous, as he's never shot in a tournament before. I told him he should go for it.

Not much else going on this week. Busy and boring.

A Very Worthy Cause

Manda Bean's mom was recently diagnosed with Ductal Carcinoma (Breast Cancer). Over 60 designers teamed up to create this kit to help pay for her treatment and other expenses.

Please buy this if you can. I lost my dad to cancer, and I want with all my soul for her mom to beat this devastating disease. It's only 10 bucks, but it all adds up. Please help.

Tuesday Night Chick Flick



Watch Sixteen Candles this weekend, then join us for some girlie fun!

We're Home

Ugh. I had a huge post written, but then Firefox pooped on itself and it's gone. Grrr...

Anyway, we had a good time in Colorado. We stayed in a small town outside of Boulder called Nederland. Andrew's sister Theresa and her new husband live there. He owns a business called Door To Door Organics. It was a really rustic, pretty town.

The wedding was at the Wild Basin Lodge in Allenspark, CO. Gorgeous rushing river, and the wedding was held on a little platform next to the river. It was a gorgeous day.
The girls were flower girls. It was moving to see the pride in Keith's eyes as he walked with his only daughter.



We also went horseback riding in Roosevelt National Forest. Cora and Sarah each got their own horse and had a blast. They were led by guides, but they didn't care.

Now were home. I'm SO glad to be back!

I have more photos on Photo Bucket if anyone wants to see them.

Goin' To Colorado

I'm leaving tomorrow for Colorado for a wedding. I'll be back Monday! Later dudes!

Do Nothing Hang Out Day

That's what today is. We've been on the go every day for a couple weeks now. It finally caught up to Cora, who had a total meltdown yesterday. So today is Do Nothing Hang Out Day. It's 9:30 AM, and Cora's still conked out. Guess someone needed sleep, eh? Poor kit. She can go and go, but when it catches up to her, it's not pretty. We're gonna play outside a bit, watch a bit of Lord Of The Rings (the girls LOVE this), and sit on our fannies.

Sarah got her glasses Tuesday. They're just SO cute on her! I'll have to snag her to get a few photos. She's still on her photo strike, so we'll see if I get anything. Maybe I'll bribe her with a popsicle! :)

We leave for CO on Thursday afternoon. A three hour flight to Denver. Monday I have to find some "stuff" for the girls to do on the plane. I need to go to the library and get the next two books in the set I'm reading. None of us have ever been to CO, so we're looking forward to seeing the mountains.

Tomorrow I'm going with my sister-in-law Lara, her friend Betsy, and Lara's dad Larry up to Larry's family farm. Lara wants me to take Senior portraits up there, and I'm going to finish Betsy's portraits up there as well. It's beautiful, with lots of cool stuff. Plus I don't have to take the girls, so it's like a mini-vacation. I was going to go up tonight, but remembered going up North on Friday in the summer is a BAD idea. Everyone else is also traveling, so I'd be in LOTS of traffic. So I'm going to wait until early Saturday morning.

Welp, I'd better get this done; Lord of The Rings awaits.

Here's a sketch if anyone's so inclined to use it.

Ugh...Monday

I hate Mondays. I just can't seem to get moving. Today's pretty laid back. Cleaned the living room and am getting some laundry done. The girls are running wild around the neighborhood with their friends. Bawahahahahah! Cora is carrying the Walkie-Talkie so that I can check in on them. She thinks she's cool. I'm SO glad she does.

Sarah had her annual physical this morning. She got tested for Anemia; she wasn't happy about that. She was tough though. I mean, who LIKES having blood drawn?

Andrew took the girls camping this weekend. I took advantage of the solitude and saw Pirates 2. Not a bad flick. I liked how the end went straight into number 3. There were some pretty funny parts. A preview for The Guardian looked really good. It stars Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher. Ashton is actually a decent actor. It comes out in Sept. Guess I'll have to see it. Talladega Nights looks pretty freaking funny as well. I don't usually like Will Ferrell, but this movie looks great. I've been to Talladega, AL a couple times. Very interesting to see a NASCAR race. Yee Haw.

TGIF, Baby!

It has begun. Cora is SUCH a girl. I can't even imagine how it will be when she's a teenager. I took her school clothes shopping today, and it was just too funny to watch her flit around the store checking stuff out. She insisted I take her to the mall. That's never a good sign. We had a good time hanging out together. Sarah didn't want to go, so she spent the day at her Aunt's.

Less than two weeks until we fly to CO. The girls have their dresses, but I need to go shopping for mine. Something light and comfortable. Luckily it's not a really formal wedding, and I can get something pretty and comfy.

So, it's almost 10 PM on Friday night. The girls are watching Fellowship of The Ring. They love those movies. It's so funny; the movies I think would maybe be too scary for them they love. I thought Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire would be too dark and scary. Nope. Didn't faze them one bit.

Andrew's taking the girls camping tomorrow morning. Woot! Not sure what I'll do. Watch chick flicks, scrap, and sit on my behind. Can't beat that!

Wonderful 4th!

We had a great day yesterday. Awesome parade in the morning. The girls had a lot of fun. We had a cookout with Andrew's brother's family in the afternoon, and then went to see the fireworks. That's always so much fun. Not sure why, but sitting in the grass with a thousand other people waiting on fireworks always really drives it home for me. I'm SO lucky to live in this awesome country. Maybe it's watching everyone else just enjoy being together makes it so awesome for me. The 4th of July has to be one of my favorite holidays. I love the USA!

Sarah needs full-time glasses. Luckily she's far-sighted, so she may very well outgrow needing them.

Let's see...what else. Got some layouts done the past few days.

Bunch of stuff on this one. Papers by Angie Briggs; Doodles by Fee Jardine (Her doodles are da bomb!); Stamped Alpha by Jenn Star; Blue flower by Amy Knepper. Fonts are Carpenter and Pea Elizabeth.


This one is from Heather Roselli's "Growth Spurt" kit that will be releases at The Digi Chick tomorrow, July 6. This kit totally rocks the house. You know you want it.

Poor, Neglected Blog!



Wow! I haven't ever gone this long without updating. I've been CRAZY busy the past couple weeks. Thought I'd take a break and give the blog some lovin'.

Let's see. We found out that both girls need glasses. Cora needs them for reading, and Sarah needs them all the time. The good news is that they're both farsighted, which is likely to correct itself since they're so young. We're hoping that's the case. They both, of course, had a fun time picking out the perfect frames.

We went camping last weekend. It wasn't too bad, even though I DETEST camping. It wasn't horrible, but I won't be going back any time soon. The girls and Andrew had a lot of fun though, and it was fun to watch them. Andrew's trying to sweet talk me into going again, but it ain't happenin'. We were up on Andrew's stepfather's land up near Weidman, MI. We stopped by his farm while we were up there, and hung out there for a while. I got some great shots of Cora. Sarah wasn't havin' anything to do with the camera. She's on camera strike, apparently. I did get one of her eating a marshmallow.



She ate about half a S'More, then wanted just the marshmallows. Crazy kid...everyone knows that camping is all about the S'Mores!

Here are a couple shots of Cora.





I've been pretty busy with photos all week. I wrapped up all the headshots for the Fenton Village Players this week. They're doing "Once Upon A Mattress" this summer, so I've been getting all their headshots and their publicity poster all done. Pretty big job, but fun. Last night as I was leaving I got a rousing rendition of the Birthday Song. That was pretty cool.

Yeah. I'm 30. My birthday was June 26. Not sure how I feel about being 30 yet. Ask me in about 10 years. :)

Not sure what our plans are for the 4th. Probably just parade and fireworks. July 4th has to be one of my all time fave holidays. I just get filled with pride to know I live in this awesome country. Sure, we're not perfect, but darn it, America rocks. Wouldn't want to live anywhere else. I'm also proud that I'm forever a part of the tradition of the military. I can't even express how thankful I am for the men and women who fight and die every day to keep this country free. God Bless America.

Sunday, June 18, 2006

Wow!

It's been a BUSY few days! Wednesday night I caught some crazy cold, and have been feeling like crap the past few days. Did that slow me down? Nope! Thursday morning, both girls had baseball practice. They both had a BLAST. Sarah's playing on an instructional T-ball team, and Cora's on a Squirt softball team.



Thursday night I started taking headshots for a local Theater Group that my brother-in-law is the producer of. I'll go back a few more times to get the entire cast. They're doing Once Upon A Mattress.

Friday was the Engagement Party for Andrew's sister Theresa and her fiance David. They came in from Colorado. They're getting married in July in CO, and we wanted to have a party to meet his family (whose from PA), and for the people who can't make it to the wedding to come and congratulate them. It was a lot of fun. After that was over, we all went to Andrew's mom's to hang out with Theresa and one of their cousins who they haven't seen in years. They seemed to have been really close when they were kids. Hopefully we can keep in touch with them, as they only live an hour away. Theresa was really surprised to see them.

Saturday was the Big Fat Spangler Birthday Party. There are MANY June birthdays. We had a party for James, Sarah, me, Andrew, Janet, and Jessica. We only sang the Spangler birthday song once, thankfully. It can be pretty raucous.

Today was Father's Day. Andrew got breakfast in bed, and then we went to Andrew's dad's house for a while to hang out before Theresa and David went to the airport.

Today's been bittersweet. I'm glad Andrew enjoyed his day, and got to spend time with his dad. I miss mine, though. I've been trying all day to be strong and not break down. It's Andrew's day and I don't want it dampened by the way I feel. I miss my daddy today.

Hump Day!!

Both girls have been home this week since school's out. Gonna be a LOOONNNGGGG summer! :) Tomorrow, both girls have softball/baseball practice. I think they're both going to love playing.

Getting my bedroom organized. Man it was a MESS!!!! I'm going to go dresser shopping tomorrow and find a new dresser for our room. The one in there is OLD! Time for some new stuff.

Andrew shaved his head tonight...BALD. I've never seen him bald before, but I'm diggin' it! I doubt he'll EVER do it again, but it's cool he gave it a shot this time. People are going to FREAK out when they see him. He looks so different. Cora doesn't like it at all. She was not pleased when he showed her. I'll have to sneak a pic or two and post it...he's going to be very stingy with the photos. Terd.

Yet Another Busy Weekend

Wow...the weekends in June are BUSY! Yesterday I took my nephews to their soccer tournament. Both boys did really well. Then we went to Lara's boyfriend's Open House(graduation party). That was pretty fun too. I was exhausted after all the hoopla, so came home pretty early.

Today was the first of three Club Championship Shoots at the bow club. The highest 2 out of 3 score in each division is declared the champion. It was the first time I'd shot 3D targets before, and I had a blast! The girls shot really well too. Here's Cora showing off her kill. It's about as in the middle of the heart as it can get!

Last day of school

It's Cora's last day as a first grader. I just know she's gonna get off the bus crying. When I dropped her off at the bus stop this morning, she said that she'll probably be crying when she got off this afternoon. I told her that was perfectly ok.

Sooner or later this next week I've got to go and get my driver's license renewed. I don't think I've ever had a license renewed. I've either lost it in a river, gotten married, gotten divorced, gotten married again. Soooo...this will be the first time I've had a license for 6 years in a row! Whoopee!! :)

Anyway...short post today. Gotta get busy.

Lata!

Tuesday, June 06, 2006

Mmmmm...Bug Dope...

Yup. I smell like bug dope. I was at the bow club today and sprayed "Off!" on myself and Sarah. I was supposed to take her to shoot the course today, but it didn't happen. The moron who was supposed to relieve me at registration never showed up. I will not type what names I called him. Let's just say that it's not for ladies' eyes. :)

It's been a BUSY day. Cora's school had their Field Day today, so worked the morning shift in the Cupcake Walk. It was a lot of fun. Sarah and I ate lunch with Cora before we had to jet to the bow club for registration. After registration, I had to jet to Fenton for a production meeting of the Fenton Village Players. I'm their staff photographer this year, and they're beginning production of Once Upon A Mattress. My Brother-in-law is the Producer, and he's got his poop together. I like that. Now all I have to do is figure out when I can do cast headshots. He wants them done by the end of June. Shouldn't be a problem. My evenings are pretty free; it's my days that are slammed. Such is life in summer. Now I'm sitting at home waiting on my tea to get done boiling. Got my living room clean of clothes that have been on the floor since Friday waiting to be put away. Apparently I'm the only one capable of such a feat. The clothes fairy is slacking. Sigh...

Cora's done with school on Thursday. I promised her we'd go eat at Red Robin that night. I've never been there before. Anyone know if it's good?

Father's Day's coming up. Not sure how I'm gonna feel that day. First Father's Day without my dad. I miss him more than I can even describe. When we got our new car last week, I briefly thought: "I should call him and tell him about it". Then reality set in and I realized he's not here. But I know he's watching. I can just feel it. It makes me smile to know that. Anyway...give your daddies a kiss on June 18. They deserve it.

What else? Not much else going on around the Spangler abode. Guess I'll get some prom photos edited for my sister-in-law before she sends the mob after me. If ya wanna see them go here.

Later, taters!

What a Weekend!!!


Our bow club had a State Shoot this weekend. Archers from all over the state came and shot. It was a total blast to watch this; it was the first outdoor shoot I'd seen. I was running the "kitchen". We had a grill out there on the field. We made a considerable amount of money. The fun part was watching the professional archers at work. There were quite a few REALLY good shooters. An amateur who is a member of our club broke the state record today. That was pretty exciting.

I am SOOOOO tired. We were on the go nonstop both Saturday and Sunday. Cora has a field trip to the farm tomorrow, but I talked her into going to see a movie with me instead. I guess we'll go see Over The Hedge, but I really want to see Cars. Unfortunately it doesn't come out until Friday. Bah.

Ok...I'm too tired to keep writing, and I have a couple homework assignments to finish tonight.

Here are a couple photos from the weekend.

Dude, Where's my BLOG???

Hmmm...I went to my blog this morning and everything was messed up. Totally weird. So, I decided to start over. I'll slowly put everything back up in the next couple days. Darn it.

Holy Humidity, Batman!

Man, it's HOT! I wish it would rain and get it over with. It's SO humid and yucky.

We bought a new car yesterday. It's a Chevy Cobalt and it's Sunburst Orange. Andrew chose the color, if you can believe it. I told him I didn't care, but would have preferred the red. Oh well, such is life. We are supposed to pick it up today at 1.

Cora's going to the zoo today on a class field trip. She was SO excited this morning...you'd think she's never been to the zoo before. We went to the grocery store this morning and got her a disposable camera and her Lunchable.

The Skate A Rama was pretty fun. I was not aware that the kids had to bring their own skates, so the girls didn't skate. They didn't care though. There was a lot of other stuff to keep them occupied. The firetruck was there and it gave people rides in the bucket. They also had one of the hoses hooked up and was letting kids run through the water.

I think Cora has discovered the love of baseball. She sat up last night and watched most of the Tigers game. I had such fun explaining to her all the bits and pieces of the rules. I remember my dad doing that with me.
**Charlene....the Yanks are the DEBILS!!!!**

I haven't scrapped in a few days (GASP), but here are a couple that I did recently.



Manda Bean's "Bring In the Funk"





Sandra Boddington's "Stroll In The Park"

Remembering

It's Memorial Day. A day of remembering those who are gone. Remembering those who are still here, fighting for freedom. Showing appreciation.

I could only pray that if I was ever called to make the ultimate sacrifice, I would be brave and face it head on. That I would make my fellow soldiers and countrymen proud. I am SO proud to have been a part of our military.

I just want to say THANK YOU to every serviceman and woman. YOU are our country. I'll staunchly support you any chance I get. To those morons who protest at military funerals: ROT IN HELL.

It Done Come a Flood!

Ok...not quite. But man, we got some serious rain. We were under a tornado watch until 10 PM. Luckily things have settled down. I hate storms, especially with thunder.

Today was a pretty boring day. HOT and MUGGY. I love the warm weather though; I'd rather sweat than freeze any day of the week. I'm SO glad Summer's on its way.

Because of the crazy weather we had, the Skate A Rama that was to be held at Cora's school was postponed until next week.

10 things I need to get done tomorrow:

1. Finish hanging laundry
2. Finish balancing checkbook
3. Clean my bedroom
4. Empty Dishwasher
5. Load Dishwasher
6. Take two quizzes
7. Buy garbage bags
8. Clean off desk
9. Take movies back
10. Mail Andrew's release to company

Wonder how much of it I'll get done??? Hee hee...

Welp, I'm out. Later taters...

Neat Stuff!



I did this layout today with Manda Bean's Crazy For Clipboards kit found at Sweet Shoppe Designs.




I also designed the scotch tape holding the picture to the paper. Here is the tape if you would like to have it. Kinda different.

Download HERE.

Please leave a comment if you snag it, and PLEASE don't illegally share the link; send 'em to my blog to get it. Thanks.

Let's Hear It For The Boy!

My jam! :)

It's supposed to be warm today. Partay!

Guess what I got last night when the UPS man came? My Mother's Day present. Andrew got me the 580 EX Speedlite flash for my camera. I'm WAY geeked! I'm mainly a natural light girl, but this will definitely come in handy for a couple future projects I have in the works. I also got a huge backpack for all my camera stuff. I was running out of room in my other camera case.
My husband ROCKS!!!!!!

Ok...I posted a challenge on The Digi Chick. Blog about your favorite summer activity.

The girls and Andrew love to go camping. I do not. :)

I love to take the girls to the park and let them run around like monkeys. This summer they're both trying out baseball and softball, so we'll see how they like that.

Ultimate Round 4 Layout

Here's the link to my Round 4 layout. I'm lovin' it.

Soul.

Any love would be greatly appreciated!

Monday!

So like, I made it to round 4 in the Ultimate Digi Scrapper contest!!! I'm pretty excited; there was some VERY still competition last week.
This week's challenge is "freestyle". Just do what you do, and do it awesome! Should be fun. There are only 40 contestants left, and next week it shrinks to 7. Woah! Gotta bring it if I want to keep going.

Sarah had her Dial 3 assessment this morning for kindergarten. She was a little anxious about going in the room with a bunch of ladies she had never seen before, but once she went in, she was fine. After, we went to Big Apple Bagels for a Breakfast BLT, orange juice and a Caramel Latte for me.

Watched The Great Raid last night. It was pretty good, but I'll have to watch it again so I can see it all...everyone else had other plans about me watching it. I love military movies, although the Thin Red Line was HORRID!!!!! It was like someone pushed a thumb tack into my eye for 2 1/2 hours. NOT an experience I would like to repeat. Stupid movie.

Here's a layout I did yesterday.

Friday!!! WOO HOO!!!

Welp, It's 8:30 AM. Sarah's still asleep. I'm waiting on the coffee to finish brewing. Once I have my coffee and Sarah wakes up, I'm going to shut this computer down and clean the house. The laundry is taking on a life of its own, so I'd better tame it and get it finished. I have to get the girls' summer clothes out and sorted to see what they can still wear. Fun day. It's raining and cold, so no outside.

The new theater in town opens today. They barely have the building done; there's still tarp on the front where there's no wall! How funny! It's supposedly the biggest cinema in the county, with a huge ticket price to match. Still, it'll be fun to have a cinema right in town. The DaVinci Code comes out today. I'm not sure if I'm going to see it in the theater or wait for DVD. I've read the book, and I have mixed feelings about it. I know it's fiction, but it throws into question everything Christianity is about. Not sure how I like that. But as a fictional body of work, it was pretty interesting. Wonder how the movie will be. Tom Hanks is my fave actor, so I'm sure he does a great job. I love that Paul Bettany is the Albino; LOVE him.

Anyone else watch ER last night? What a cliffhanger, eh? I won't spoil it for the people who haven't seen it. Freaky how it ended. All I know is that I cried like a baby last week when Gallant died. I LOVED his character. I really don't like ER's politics though. Just play the show, and leave all the war-bashing out of it. Do I care if the producers don't agree with the war? NOPE. I hate it when celebrities try to speak on issues, and think they're authorities just because they're famous. George Clooney can go drown in a sea of sand. Dixie Chicks too. I'M not ready to make nice. Wenches.
Ok...stepping down from my soapbox.

Ah...I feel better...guess if I can't vent on my own blog, where the heck can I vent?

Round 3 ends tonight at DigiScrappin.biz. Only 40 will make it to round 4. It would be nice if I made it, but if not, that's ok. I love my Round 3 layout, and can be proud of the layouts I created for this contest. Lots of fun.

Speaking of Fave Actors, I'm pretty picky with my favorites. I'm not sure I could pick 10 actors who I love to watch in almost everything they're in. I'll give it a shot:

1. Tom Hanks( Stupid is as stupid does)
2. Morgan Freeman
3. James Earl Jones (I AM YOUR FATHER!!!!!!!)
4. Heath Ledger (pre Brokeback Mountain)
5. Patrick Stewart
6. Cuba Gooding Jr. (Show me the money!)
7. Will Smith
8. Cary Elwes (As you wish)

Well, I got 8. I would watch every one of these men count toothpicks. Excellent actors.

*Sniffle*

Today's Sarah's last day of preschool...ever. In the fall she'll start full-day kindergarten, and I'll no longer have babies at home! Where in the world did the time go? They've grown WAY too fast for my liking. *Sniffle* I thought I'd be a sobbing mess last night at Sarah's preschool graduation, but I held it together. There were a few times I thought I might lose it, but nope. It'll be so weird not to drive into that church parking lot every other day. Wow...a true end to a chapter in our lives.

Will and Emma are coming over for the weekend. My and Andrew's niece and nephew. I'm looking forward to having them come hang out; it's been a long time. Will is 2 and Emma is 4, so it'll be fun to have a toddler around for a few days. Lots of photo ops!


Welp, Sarah is now signed up for T-ball, and Cora is signed up for T-softball. We'll see how much they like it.


Here's Sarah and her teacher, Miss Carol last night.
