    Little Elmo

    Well, I never thought I'd be posting something like this for a LONG time!! We have a new addition to the family, Little Elmo.

    Elmo is a 12 week old (as of the 23rd) beagle puppy.. we got him a week ago and he has been a sweetheart!! he has been a nonstop sidekick with Snoopy.. he has not left her side since he has come into our home.

    It wasn't a intended thing to bring another
    puppy into our home. we felt complete with our 3 cats and 3 dogs but circumstances brought him into our home and we couldn't be happier.. ALTHOUGH HE IS OUR LAST!!! we can't handle another animal in our home for a LONG LONG LONG TIME!!!

    So here's a picture of Elmo alone and then another picture of Elmo with Snoopy and Puggly sleeping..















    In You, I found Me

    This song I am not sure who sings it or anything about the singer or the writer, It was on an email song that I heard back in April, When I heard it I loved it and asked my sister in law if she could help me find the song down on paper or something, so she found the song and emailed it to me but didn't tell me who sings it or anything and I wanted to share it with everybody..

    IF someone knows who sings this song or the writer will you please let me know so I can post it on here who sings it as they deserve the credit for this song!!



    "In You, I found me"

    I was lost, lost and all alone,
    With an empty heart and soul,
    Then you became my home.
    My life was filled with every wrong,
    An endless night so long,
    Then you became my dawn.

    Chorus
    You opened up the door to your heart, and I walked through,
    In you I found the power to be strong,
    In you I found a reason to belong,
    In you I found how great a love can be,
    And in you, I found me.
    My world was caught in a raging storm,
    My sails were ripped and torn,
    Then you became my calm.
    Like a bird with broken wings I cried,
    Had nowhere left to fly,
    Then you became my sky

    Chorus
    You opened up the door to your heart, and I walked through,
    In you I found the power to be strong,
    In you I found a reason to belong,
    In you I found how great a love can be,
    And in you, I found me.
    And now I'll never fear the past,
    I know how long we'll last,
    We are forever.

    Chorus
    You opened up the door to your heart, and I walked through,
    In you I found the power to be strong,
    In you I found a reason to belong,
    In you I found how great a love can be,
    And in you, I found me.
    And in you, I found me.

    IT'S OCTOBER!!!

    Alright so it's already over half of Oct. but at least I'm posting now :) I've been asked by several people when I'm gonna update again so here I am!!!!

    Everyone in the family has been very very busy. Since my last post, Robert and I did go to Gatlinburg for our anniversary which I must say we really really really enjoyed our time away. It has been a LONG time since Robert and I actually went out away from home and staying a motel. 4 years to be exact but we still really enjoyed it.

    We went up to Gatlinburg and got stuck in traffic due to the old car shows along the strip so the traffic was awful and going 3 miles to where we needed to go took us over 3 hours to get to the motel geesh!! but we finally got through the traffic and found our motel. We stayed at Microtel and it was really nice and really wasn't what we expected but it was still very nice. After we checked in we went walking to figure out where we were gonna eat at for supper.. we settled on Shoney's and from there we went walking some more and we ended up at Baskin Robbin's 31 Ice Cream place and got a cone.. we walked up the hill back to our room where we settled in for the day.

    The next day we went to Dollywood when they first opened and it was really really nice. I was sad though.. they had a real pig that they had up on a roasting thing and it turned and turned all day long roasting.. when we got there the pig was still pink and i felt so bad for the piggie.. by the time we left it had turned to a crispy brown color.. I love eating BBQ but still to see the pig roasting made me sad. We went on several rides, walked around the park at least 4 times all the way around the park finding things to look at etc. Finally about 3 pm we left the park and Robert started to drive.. it wasn't long before I fell asleep.. He was wanting to go on a drive and show me things but I was so worn out I fell asleep so he turned the car around and headed back to Clinton.. I felt bad falling asleep but I was so sleepy!!

    Before we went to Gatlinburg, Robert had to work that day so I went to Tori's Volleyball game and it was really intresting to see the game. I had never been to one of Tori's game and she wanted me to be there so I went.. it was really neat and I'm hoping that she'll be able to continue to play sports and maybe HOPEFULLY I'll be able to go to a game if there's one on Saturdays. It's hard to be able to go during the week when the game is on weekdays when I am just getting off work but would like to go to her games more often. and I was VERY VERY proud of Tori!!

    Robert is still loving his job and I'm glad he is.. He's so much less stressed than he was at his last job. and he'll be at this job 6 months on the 30th.. Soon i'll be saying he's been there a year!! time has been flying by so fast!!!!

    Work for me has been going ok, we've been stressed a lot lately at work due to a lot of changes that they want us to do and it's hard to change over to the way they want us to do the work but I am getting there!!

    Christmas is just almost 2 months away!! Is anybody ready for it?!?! started your Christmas shopping?!?!? I'm REALLY not ready for Christmas!! It feels like it was just last month we had Christmas!!

    BUT before Christmas we gotta celebrate 3 birthdays!! My granny's birthday is on Oct. 31st And THEN we have my sister's birthday and Mine!! ours is in Nov. so we're getting old!! :( I'll be 32 years old!! seems like just yesterday I was turning 21!! see I like I said.. Time FLIES!!!!

    I think I'll be posting
    a song here next, So I'll close this post for now.. See ya next time!!
