Talent, Talent, Talent
Well, I'm back for the long overdue update!

Let me start with a picture of Mark Hall and the band members of Casting Crowns! The concert was Feb 7th and it was GREAT! I must say it was one of the best ones I have been to yet and I have gone to my share of concerts. This pic is SOC. I was so surprised that it turned out so well being we were so far away from the stage. Of all the pics I took, this was the only good one. The huge Jumbo-Tron focused on Mark Hall helped my picture turn out the way it did. I kind of like it! It will make a great scrapbook page along with the tickets, once I get back in the mood to scrap! lol

Things have been busy here with work, school and sickness on top of not feeling like I have had anything of importance to say lately. 2 weeks ago, E had the flu and I have been down with it the last 4 days myself. This stuff is just nasty. I am going to go back to work tomorrow and hopefully all will go well.

I got an email a couple of days ago saying my camera has been shipped! WAHOOO! It is expected to arrive tomorrow. I am so excited! LOL He needs a name! It must be a him since I feel like I'm entering into a new LOVE AFFAIR! hee hee I have butterflies. I am taking E for a photo-shoot at Elmer Thomas Park this weekend. Hopefully I will be able to learn a few things on this new camera from that shoot. I am so excited... did i already say that? I feel faint!

Tonight was E's talent show and boy did they do a great job. E and her friend A did a great job on their song. They sang "Holy" by Nicole Nordeman. It was just awesome. And with that said, I will leave you with the video of their performance. Enjoy!

*I can't figure out how to make the video show up here so here is the website to view it

They say if you dont like the weather in Oklahoma just stick around a day or so! 81 degrees yesterday and 39 degrees today! That's typical Oklahoma weather for you. Personally, I like it cold so I am not complaining too much about today.

Don't forget to vote! Go Huckabee!!!
