We went to Union University yesterday with Christian and Megan (her friend whom she is trying so hard to convince to go away to school with). Joey and I were so impressed. Now granted, it is a Christian college. We met with one of the Biology professors and the first question he asked Christian about was what God was doing in her life. She thought that was very cool. They went on to discuss the Biology department and what she could expect while she was there and also how UU could prepare her for getting accepted into a great Physical Therapy program following graduation. When they were done with the meeting he asked if he could pray with her, I wish I had a picture of that scene (only a scrapbooker would understand that!) Christian was so excited after we left. I think she has her mind made up already, but we are going to Murray State on Saturday and they she wants to visit UT @ Chattanooga too. But UU will be hard to beat. Our concern is that it is a private college therefore very expensive. We have discussed how we will help her as much as we can but she will have to get some loans and we hate for her to have that on her shoulders as she begins a career.

I forgot to mention earlier.......I HATE Playdough!!!! OK, I got that out, and now I feel better. Now I'm going back to scraping the little playdough particles out of the carpet.
I finally committed to Weight Watchers today. I've been meaning to go for quite a few weeks now but something always came up. I had really been blaming it on Lillie, thinking she wouldn't behave if I took her with me. But I took her with me today and she was so good. Then we went for a walk on the Greenway, which she really enjoyed because it was so darn pretty out. Lots of mom's with strollers today, so I fit right in. Hopefully, I'll take control of my life again. I feel like I'm not really "ME" anymore.
Tomorrow, we are going to visit Union University with Christian. Then on Saturday, we are going to Murray State, which is where Joey went. This college searching process is so exciting to Christian and Joey and I are enjoying watching her move into this next stage of her life.
Oh yeah, I loved the movie last Saturday: Failure To Launch. It was just my kind of movie. A cute little romantic comedy. No violence. Really no suspence. Just a light funny movie. So go see it if you get a chance!

Just got home from my LSS Class Preview Party. I've been workin' like a dog on class projects for the next 3 months to show today. It went pretty well although I would have like more people to come. I think alot of people are on their way out of town for spring break. But anyway here are some classes I came up with:
Baby Album in a Day! 20 page album that will highlight each month of baby's first year. Image hosting by Photobucket
Not Your Ordinary Easter Paper Bag Album! just a fun colorful mini album made out of gift bags Image hosting by Photobucket I wish I had a picture of the inside because it's kinda interactive. The other class I'm teaching is called Simplicity. The concept is to do Simple layouts and really get some scrappin' done...5 simple layouts each month. sorry I don't have a picture for this one.
Well, Joey and I getting ready to go to the movies. Gonna go see Failure to Launch . I let you know how it is!

Ahhhhh!

That's all I can say. Ahhhhh! We got our new mattress yesterday and last night we both had the best nights sleep we've had in a very long time. I love it. It's very cozy and soft and comfy. The pillows are wonderful too!
Gotta work today. I have to teach a class this morning, then we are putting out new product the rest of the day. I like it when we are busy with customers and busy putting out the new stuff. Maybe tonight I can post a picture of Lillie's B-day.
Have a great day!

Okay, okay, I'm blogging today.

Sorry I'm such a blogger let down. It's really bothering me that the entry below (my pirate name) isn't centered. Arrrr, I can't get it right. Oh well, what's going on with me? ? ? Today is Lillie's 3rd birthday. We celebrated at Chuck E. Cheese last night, which was her third time to celebrate a birthday there. But I must say that last night was the most enjoyable of all parties... no kids! Just our immediate family and 1 of Amies friends. Oh, and no uncomfortable adult situations. Lillie's dad's family did their own party with her this year. It was sooooo much more enjoyable than past parties! I wish I had a picture to post but my digital camera sucks and the battery was dead when it was time to go to the party so I had to use my film camera. I'll get the pictures developed today and post one tomorrow.
Other big news here in the Davis household.....We bought a Select Comfort bed last friday. Can't wait to get it...it's in trasit from S. Carolina. I'm tracking it on UPS. We have to currently own the worst mattress ever. It was an expensive one but it feels like we are sleeping on the floor. We got new pillows too and have been using them which has helped our sleeping experience a little bit. I'll let you know how great the new one is.
I gotta get going working on class projects. I'm behind as usual and have to have them all completed before tomorrow. I'm such a procrastinator.
