pictures

jam tagged me in a picture tag challenge

and oh boy do i ever love the picture challenges

i was so super excited ....
but then i realized that i had not moved any of my pictures over from the my old computer to my new laptop (that my flake gave me as a going away present!)
i thought long and hard about how i could get the pictures from the old computer to this computer....
to be quite honest it seemed a little too much work for me
so i thought about not doing the challenge...
but really is that possible?
could i just pass up a picture challenge?
the answer...no!
ever since the first time i did a picture challenge
i can't get enough of them....
(not to mention the last time...that i tweaked the challenge a little bit)
i just love these picture challenges
because i love pictures
and the memories they bring back
so i just had to do it!

so i thought one more time about how to get my picture files and then i remembered...
snapfish
i went to my snapfish account and did the challenge using those folder
....smart huh?

i was even more excited that jam had two photo challenges in the same post,
so i got do to the same! :)

first folder, tenth picture

that is robin .... and norman kellum's head
i was down visiting robin a few years ago,
there was a big storm, which blew mr. kellum's head off his billboard.
robin's store is right beside the billboard and his head was in the parking lot when we got to her store the morning after the storm.
too funny!

sixth folder, sixth picture

that would be me
with a kid's football helmet on
at an ecu football game
one of my friends bet that i wouldn't wear the helmet to the game
so you know i had to wear it, and wear it with pride!

thanks jam for tagging me in this picture challenge!

i'm tagging who ever wants to take the challenge on,
just leave me a comment to let me know you are doing it,
so i can come over and look at your pictures too! :)

random

its ok to be random from time to time
and this is one of those times for me
--------
random part 1
jam tagged me a few days back with a picture challenge.
the fourth picture in the fourth folder challenge
since i had already done that challenge a few weeks ago
see here
i tried to come up with a new way to complete the challenge for her
you know like 5th picture in the 5th folder...
or something
then i found myself looking through pictures....
and trying to figure out....why i shouldn't post them all....
i have so many favorite pictures......
i guess that is why they are all somewhere in a frame....
looking back at me daily
:)
so i decided to post a few for you!

this is me and my best friend robbie
playing outside
on a hurricane day
(you know, its just like a snow day, except you are out of school because of a hurricane instead of snow!)
we had a blast that day! :)


this is me and the flake
sitting on the stoop outside my old apartment the day i graduated from uncg.
it was a great day
for oh so many reasons
either way, i adore this picture
i have it sitting on my desk at school...to remind me of how special each god given day is


ahh what a great day!
:)
getting married to my flake :)
surrounded by our loving family and friends....
what could make it any better than this?!?!
in my case...
it would be...having my daddy be the one who marries me and my love! :)


ahh relay for life
i was there with my team from school
and our theme was something to do with disney
but for some reason we had a lot of swimmy things
so i felt the need to wear the floaties
one problem
i couldn't put them on, when they were inflated
so flake decided to blow them up for me....once i had them on!
the reason i love this picture....
other than it is cute
is that my friend amanda told me...that by seeing this picture, she knew flake was the one for me! :)


fourth of july
before the fire works
at roaring gap country club
i still can't stop laughing
as all of us....
walked up to the club....
with our tarp
and our cooler of drinks
seeing the looks on all the "classy" people
who were dressed like they were going out for a night on the town
with their fancy table to sit at
:) it was completely awesome!

i could totally look for pictures for days! :)
thanks jam for letting me share memories with all of you!
-------------------

random part 2....
the other day i posted .... would you rather
i loved reading all your responses!
:) they were so great!
baby steps asked what my answers were....
so .....
here they are
would you rather eat leftovers or eat a school lunch?
leftovers.....but if i got my choice i would eat pb&j ever day! :)

would you rather use the kiddie bathroom in the classroom or hold it?
hold it.....
as much as my urologist would hate to hear that....
i hold my pee until 1:05 every day.....
unless it is a "stone passing" day....
then i go like 30 times a day! :)

would you rather tie shoes or blow a nose?
99% of the time ...... i don't do either!
:)
mean?!?!
probably!
for shoes....i say....ask a friend to help you
for noses....i'll coach them through it....but the only time i help hold the tissue is if they are having a bloody nose....

would you rather use liquid glue or glue sticks?
personally i think it depends on the project at hand....
but when it comes to the kids....
i want them to use liquid glue.....just so they learn the concept
but ..... i do give them a choice from time to time .... depending on the project! :)

would you rather sit in a little chair or on the floor?
either is fine
it depends on what they are doing
i sit in the chair if we are all at a table
or on the floor when we are working in a group
i don't care either way
however i find it very funny when parents come in to talk to me, and i have them sit in a little chair....
most of the time they look at me like i'm dumb!

would you rather put things away the right way or allow the kids to do their best?
i let the kids do it all the time, i mean, if they made the mess, they clean it up...right??
about once a month, i pick a specific center to go into .... and will talk to them about how we should clean it up the right way....
but other than that....i let them do it
and .... for the most part....they clean things up the way i would like, because of a lot of modeling on my part at the beginning of the year! :)

i said a few post back that i wanted to make my own blog awards
i've been busy doing this!
