Thursday Thirteen #50

Thirteen Random Things about Qtpies7

1.I have a senior this year. Ugh! I am so proud of him and so not ready for him to grow up.

This is one of his senior pictures. It is my favorite.

Next year I'll be displaying a picture of him in his Air Force uniform. THAT will make me tear up for sure!

Drew is a smart, responsible, and caring Christian young man.

2. I'm nearly done Christmas Shopping! I am! For the first time ever, I have gotten close to done at the beginning of December. Of course it was easy this year because I enter a million contests and my winnings will make several great gifts, and I have earned some additional money and gift certificates that I was able to use for gifts.

3. I'm babysitting today and the kids are nutso! I was hoping, in vain, that their cold medicine their mom said to give them would make them sleepy. Who was I kidding? Not that it is just them, Trinity is right there with them.

4. I put my tree up. Ok, Donnie put the tree up, but I wasn't going to put one up until the day before Christmas, and I certainly wasn't going to have a real tree. But we have a real tree, and it is up already. Not decorated. The Tree Adventure

5. Online school is tough. Hate it. I loved online college, I hate online public school, because high school they did school with a teacher, but 6th grade they are making ME teach, when it is "online" but not really. Just the assignments are online. If I wanted to homeschool, I'd homeschool without their deadlines and stuff. Won't be doing this again, even if it does come with a computer.

6. I want to have a baby!

7. Actually, I want to have twins.

8. Even after 7 kids, I haven't learned the rule about not saying something or your kids will make you a liar. Open Mouth, Insert Foot
9. Diet Dr. Pepper is the best!

10. I'm in a stamping club, and we make the cutest little projects each month and take turns being the hostess. When the leader said she was having trouble getting volunteer for December hostessing, I took it since I am the newbie. It was the best sacrifice I've ever made, lol. We had an amazing amount of sales and I got so much free! That helps me a lot because I am starting over.

11. Walmart.com is the best place to order prints. I love Snapfish, too, but Walmart is great because I can get the size pic I need for my Wall-o-pics of the kids, and they offer portrait packages, like an 8x10, 2-5x7's and 27 wallets for under $7! Oh, yes, that IS amazing! And with in store delivery there is no shipping fee, but the delivery is FAST.

12. Samuel can climb now. He seems to really enjoy climbing on my dining room table to take all the candles out of my center piece.

13. There is a LOT of snow in Minnesota with lots more on the way. I hate snow. I hate cold. I hate going outside. But, I'm not going anywhere. My husband loves it here, and we have family here.

It's only a season, it's only a season, it's only a season.........

Happy Thursday Thirteen!
