Valentine's Day Surprise and the Rodeo!

Happy Valentine's Day a day late! I've been swamped lately with helping Craig with stuff for the company and getting all the Valentine goodies for the kid's classes, that the days are just flying by lately.



Valentine's Day was awesome! I've been wanting a new phone for about a year and on Valentine's Day I got my new phone............a Blackberry Curve 2, in red! I was laughing because I just found out today that my friend, Mandy, also got one. So I guess we have a new toy to play with, don't we! I'm new to all of this techno stuff, but it sure does look like fun. I think it will help with Craig's work as I can have his emails sent to my phone if we are going away or something. So I'm totally excited about it!




I spent all day Wednesday baking cupcakes and cookies, so although I love both, I don't have much use for either right now. ROFL We spent the afternoon signing cards and packing their little goodie bags for their respective Valentine's parties.

On Friday, the kids had the day off from school because the Rodeo is in town! Yippee! We do not get President's Day off, no sir. We get Rodeo Day off and the kids get into the county fair for free. So guess where the kids and I spent the day, yep, the county fair! It was actually pretty calm and nice all day, so they had fun. We ended up staying later then I had wanted. Craig got finished with work and met us out there and brought us jackets. So we walked around and let the little one ride some rides. Then it got too crowded for me as I do not like crowds. So we left and went home. I did take a picture with our youngest on the little horse ride, so if I can figure out how to get it from my phone to the computer, I'll post it! LOL



Hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day and is having a great weekend!

What an awesome new phone- you'll love it! That is too funny that your kids get out of school for the rodeo! Here in Arkansas, there are schools that get out for craft fairs and opening day of hunting season!!!

Thanks for coming by my blog. nice to meet you. this is the info on the song...

His Strength Is Perfect
Steven Curtis Chapman

I can do all things
Through Christ who gives me strength,
But sometimes I wonder what He can do through me;
No great success to show, No glory on my own,
Yet in my weakness He is there to let me know . . .

CHORUS
His strength is perfect when our strength is gone;
He’ll carry us when we can’t carry on.
Raised in His power, the weak become strong;
His strength is perfect, His strength is perfect.

We can only know
The power that He holds
When we truly see how deep our weakness goes;
His strength in us begins
Where ours comes to an end.
He hears our humble cry and proves again . . .

(chorus)

I did paint my classroom..black and green. The cream walls were not working for me hahahhah
