I have been seeking some inspiration to motivate me. I have found a few new projects that I am excited about and seem to be getting quite obsessed with.. I have not done any major painting since we left KY and I did so much there that i have been burnt out for 2 years- at least that is my excuse. Well now I am ready. I am finally ready to do some fun and sassy room makovers!!!!<br />Hannah is wanting her room Zebra print with pink accents. I have been looking online at all sorts of ideas. Some things are way way to wild, or bright, or just plain tacky. I did find a few sight that had some neat ideas though. Check these out and let me know what you think.<br /><br />Ella and Macie are sharing a room again. We tried giving them their own rooms but it just didn't work. They ended sleeping together everynight- so rather that fight it we just moved them back in together. They want their room pink and green. Something like this.<br /><br />Carson is still loving automobiles, planes, trains, and monster trucks in particular. So we are staying with his car theme. Found some cool pics of a brick wall with graffiti that I really like. Only problem is that I don't know how to write graffiti.... Maybe I will have to practice.<br /><br />I will post some before and after pics to let you know how I am progressing. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. If you have seen anything at stores that you think might add some pizzaz to my room ideas let me know.<br />I am also going to try my hand at tiling. I am going to tile my kitchen backsplash. I am a little overwheled though....":}{+>?">..;. My brain is spinning with all the tiles to pick from at the store. It seems that the biggest part of tiling is deciding on a pattern to do. I could also use some creative brainstorming ideas on tile patterns. If you have tile in your kitchen let me know what it looks like. I am still in the brainstorming phase of this project. Maybe I just need to corner a Lowes employee and make him help me till we have a pattern decided on. That is what I will do!!Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-18388080058055271312009-04-06T07:15:00.000-07:002009-04-06T13:16:56.552-07:00New Mrs. Scribbles Blog!!I am so excited!

Thank Heavens!!!! It wasn't so bad, and I actually learned alot about my eating habit. I think I lost about 10-12 lbs. I am not sure because I didn't measure or weigh beforehand. Jeff and HAnnah both notice a big difference. I just figured better start now or I will never do it. All I know is my jeans are mush looser and my belly roll isn't hanging over my pants anymore!!!!!! YAY!!!!!! NO more Belly roll!!! I am totally increasing my fiber everyday and really limiting my dairy and sugar. I feel so much better without those two things. Now lets just hope I can keep it off. It is kind of crazy how you don't crave sugar if haven't had it in a while. I still like my sweet treat after dinner, but I just chew gum instead. It's all psychological for me I guess. I don't know if I will do it again, but it was nice to try. It is hard cooking for my family and for me at the same time.Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-77923799688012079412009-01-11T13:29:00.000-08:002009-01-11T13:54:55.930-08:00Detox???? What the heck????I have decided I am going to start the new year off doing a detox. I am now 5 days into it. I really didn't know much about a detox or cleanse. This will be my first time to try this type of thing. WHy? you ask. Well, I heard they are very beneficial to your overall health. It can help jumpstart your metabolism, help eliminate yucky toxins from your insides- which help you feel better, and loose some weight. The key to this detox thing is the food you eat. you have to drink 8 glasses of lemon water or tea a day. YOu can only eat foods that are RAW. That means fruits, vegies, and grains that don't have anything added to them. I can add lemon juice, herbs, vinegar and olive oil(very sparingly). These 5 days I have really been sticking with it and staying focused. I always thought I ate pretty healthy. This compared to what I eat now, I ate horrible. I definately feel like I have gone back to basics. I ate a cucumber the other day and it tasted so good. It didn't have anything on it- no dressing, vinegar or salt to spice it up. I am really noticing how yummy food tastes without all the "stuff" on it. An if anyone know me- I like "STUFF". The more yummy stuff on my food the better. It has been kind of nice to taste food by itself and not mixed with a ton of other flavors. <br />I will admit I have been craving sweets and treats and yummy dinners that I cook for my family every night. I makes my mouth water to smell pizza, popcorn, and roast cooking and I can't have any. But this detox only mast of 10 day. I am half way there. Then I go back to eating what I love. EVERYTHING! Just kidding. I am hoping by doing this I can keep up some of these good eating habits. Keep the fiber food high on my menu each day and lots & lots of water. <br />If any one has any words of advice or encouragement let me know. So far no one I have talked to has done a detox. <br />So far so good. 5 days down and 5 to go. I'll keep you all posted.Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-82005118368476703102009-01-08T07:24:00.000-08:002009-01-08T08:48:30.115-08:00Funnest Christmas Ever!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQlwFlLuvOYXfZIdSWX5CEGvmgTf3Xe6adBPknYjiK1SS-YgLyTtfmfSuMjtkA7n0pgmlmywA4S8hx4zOHz75CcFzHCseC2P5Cu5WMBagB5EPthwl00dWET07YdrwbAj9sw9HUdkua2J2Y/s1600-h/momma+camera+028.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 335px; height: 220px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQlwFlLuvOYXfZIdSWX5CEGvmgTf3Xe6adBPknYjiK1SS-YgLyTtfmfSuMjtkA7n0pgmlmywA4S8hx4zOHz75CcFzHCseC2P5Cu5WMBagB5EPthwl00dWET07YdrwbAj9sw9HUdkua2J2Y/s200/momma+camera+028.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288953677303243746" border="0" /></a><br />We had a great Christmas! It was a little crazy but we had a good time. We started out our journey in Lexington to spend time with Jeff's mom, dad, and sister. We always have a wonderful time there.

What may you ask has been so time consuming that I haven't had time to update my blog. Well, I have one word for you.... VINYL.<br />I have been busy learning to use my new vinyl machine. I have been having such a great time hanging signs all over my house, doors, mirrors, and car, that I have been completely neglecting <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYxbh48w72kWi9zu6Qf_s_91gjCniBbeNV5QxugAsyJp-aHg1OKsBEc5RhcpQ2C3AzPj8tTVjrtXiokmE0A4_TV392YIVXsghQANPBNfn2a5CuhDZNrcGfyosaAUtINb_Fr2mq90PHASKO/s1600-h/nov.08+091.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 163px; height: 103px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYxbh48w72kWi9zu6Qf_s_91gjCniBbeNV5QxugAsyJp-aHg1OKsBEc5RhcpQ2C3AzPj8tTVjrtXiokmE0A4_TV392YIVXsghQANPBNfn2a5CuhDZNrcGfyosaAUtINb_Fr2mq90PHASKO/s200/nov.08+091.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281150837682152706" border="0" /></a>everyone and everything. It is ok with me but my family is getting a little irritated and if any of you know my hubby he is one high maintenance man (he has needs). Jeff thinks I have become obsessed but it isn't true; I am just excited to play with my new toy. I don't think it is too much to have vinyl in every room of the house....

I have been making Christmas presents for friends and family and having so much fun! My garage looks like a tornado hit. I hate having to clean up everytime I sand something. What a hasssle. I keep telling Jeff it is his job to keep the garage clean. That man doesn't listen to me very well. It is still a disaster. Now I am bribbing my kids to help me clean it. Money always motivates.<br />I will be adding products to my blog as I make things, so if anyone wants anything just e-mail me and let me know. I will start doing this after the holidays.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh73S6auTLyebrOMD-hWqGPuYMswnCEFjZ5tjGAyAJ27aTp5B08Dmp9w8SDNeGUPknbRviUYPEPhgAknRvyiHSaV7HECZLRV6j8fp0Lnvz04Em77Un6mNKgfbQpD0V2IoylXv7fx6R9ZdZv/s1600-h/nov.08+092.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 162px; height: 120px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh73S6auTLyebrOMD-hWqGPuYMswnCEFjZ5tjGAyAJ27aTp5B08Dmp9w8SDNeGUPknbRviUYPEPhgAknRvyiHSaV7HECZLRV6j8fp0Lnvz04Em77Un6mNKgfbQpD0V2IoylXv7fx6R9ZdZv/s200/nov.08+092.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281150823796437506" border="0" /></a><br />Some other things that have been going on around our house... Jeff just had a heart cath done a few days ago. He's been having some wierd things happening lately and went in to get looked at and they said his triglycerides were way high, blood prussure was too high, was having trouble breathing, sleeping even more than usual, and feeling dizzy and faint. He did a stress test that came back bad so the doc wanted to do a heart cath to make sure there was no blockage to his heart. After the surgery, the doc said everything looked great!! His heart is super healthy! This is great news. Now we just need to get Jeff excersizing. This isn't easy for him because he's always been so skinny. Maybe a little cardio will make him feel better.<br />He has also been working on a new project. He's very excited. We aren't saying much yet, but I can tell my closest freinds right???? He is making a canner prototype. A what??? A canner like we use to can out food storage. He is making his first one over Christmas. Now that Jeff works with all these over seas suppliers he has connections to access all the parts he needs to make them affordable to everyone. We are going to try to market these so every family can afford one. Wouldn't be nice to have one to use whenever something goes on sale, to buy a bunch and add to our food supply a little at a time. After we make our first and work out all the glitches we are going to start marketing them. Have no clue how to do this, but we will figure it out as we go.. They are going to be similar in size to the Kitchen aid mixer. There are several people here in Alabama that are so excited about this and wanting to be involved in some way, we just keep telling them- lets make the 1st one and see how it goes. We will need investors soon enough. Anyways we will keep you all posted about this project. I keep telling Jeff I will make the logo out of vinyl for the machines- he laughs at me.Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-67836639927829683492008-11-12T08:47:00.000-08:002008-11-12T09:12:37.062-08:00Getting OlderI just had my 33rd Birthday Friday. I don't feel like I am getting older. I don't feel like I look alot older. BUT.... there are some changes occuring that I don't feel like have control over!!! First, my BODY!!! What is up with my body. It isn't doing anything I want it to do. I have always enjoyed workingout and staying in shape, but It doesn't seem like it helps as much as it used to.. My "ham-hocks" are determined to have a mind of there own and they have decided they are never going away!! Why do women have to battle the buldge so much. It is an exhausting game and never seems to end or get easier. So for now I will keep drinking my protien shakes,eating almonds, and running through neighborhoods for exersize (cause I am too cheap to go to the gym these days). Kind of boring i know. It not about variety, it's about lookin good in the mirror. Right??<br />Second, my kids. Are they getting bigger and I am staying the same. I sure hope O haven't changed as dramatically as they have over the past few years. Hannah is as tall as me. She can out smart me in a debate, and look so cute I am scared to send her out in the world. Carson will always be my little man. HE thinks I am wonderful 24-7. I think the Lord blessed me with him- to help me remember I am of worth. He makes me feel loved and adored. My sweet Carson!! It has been a gift to be a mom, now that I am thinking about it. Ella and Macie are still so sweet and loving. Definately not as sassy as their older sis. <br />Security and financial wellness. Does anyone have this right now?? I wonder... Jeff has a great job right now. They love him at work and he is valuable to them. The auto industry is so fickle right now. They just cut down over time which stinks cause that means less in our checks. We are just glad to have a job, but everything seems tight. Tight and uncertian.. Groceries are out of control expensive, co-pays are higher, water and electricity are going up. Sometimes even a good job isn't enough these days. <br />These are just my 33rd birthday thoughts. Just typing out loud. We will see what differs next year. This year I am just happy with my little family here in Alabama with nice house and good job. This moment is good. I am going to live it for all it's worth!!!!Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-21834570976969056352008-11-12T08:09:00.000-08:002008-11-12T08:37:21.306-08:00Finally some Halloween Pictures!!Our Halloween was full of school parties, church trick-or-trunks, and neighborhood jumping for candy!!

Callie don't be mad. Okay, I am here in Alabama. I don't know anyone, there is nothing to do, and I am tired of unpacking boxes. I am really bored and kind of lonely so I decided I needed a change to spice up my life a little. What change you ask. Can you tell by the pics? I went to walmart and picked up a box color and dyed my hair. I have never used a box color and didn't know what to expect( but that is what made it exciting). I couldn't decide lighter, darker, redder so I started talking to a girl who was also getting some color at Walmart and she thought I should go lighter, so I did. I don't know if I regret it yet. I don't know if I like it or not. It's not so far from the color I already was. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7uD-GK41AU_iGGiCuAdZ30nNGVAuhqyhk81cqgjosp6gZBC-JjEhyo7wvwNsQK1HleufdjwK3YRaHuuq_4mpdBM4_hB9m3YF4_EDtjdxSM6p2Wd46NQ0Dv020BRFYXxNYiLu21_GqjQ-i/s1600-h/hair+003.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7uD-GK41AU_iGGiCuAdZ30nNGVAuhqyhk81cqgjosp6gZBC-JjEhyo7wvwNsQK1HleufdjwK3YRaHuuq_4mpdBM4_hB9m3YF4_EDtjdxSM6p2Wd46NQ0Dv020BRFYXxNYiLu21_GqjQ-i/s320/hair+003.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5261897827983573522" border="0" /></a>It did make it a little more stawberry blonde.

HE was going to go by himself but at the last minute we decided it would be fun to all go. SO while he was dancing and mingling with Rickky Skaggs and Kelli Pickler, I was be driven bananas by my 4 kiddos. I decided to take them to the Opry hotel to show them where Jeff and I met. They were amazed by how beautiful it was. MAcie kept saying, "is this a hotel, it sure is pretty."

I showed them the garden bench Jeff and I sat on and chit-chated until Grandpa Swensen hunted us down and made me leave. They thought that was pretty funny.

The whole night I messed with the settings and made the kids pose over and over trying to tweek my settings. Hannah saw how frustrated I was getting and asked to see my camera and I kept telling her NO. Well I kept on taking blurry pictures all night. After a couple hours of that we decided to start walking back to our hotel and stop at McDonald for a treat. Well this is the annoying part!!! Hannah grabbed my camera and then said, "look mom, your camera isn't blurry anymore." Sure Hannah.... THen I looked and sure enough, she was right. What did she do??? She adjusted the second lens on my camera that I didn't know I had on there. My 11 year old just looked at me and shook her head. For about 6 months I have been stuggling with my camera and she fixed it in less than 2 seconds. What is the matter with me!!!!!!!! I am just glad my Hannah is such a smarty pants. I keep telling her she gets it from me, but I am starting to think she doesn't believe me. Anyway we all had fun and Jeff danced his hiney off.</div>Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-10516883538153546772008-10-09T08:16:00.000-07:002008-10-09T08:26:56.247-07:00Big Pumkin Day<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8bKU0Ts-DmGgSfLvc9ekheKSTxYVj-QPiiZNqjgpFDJxpY1SKTzxBjodVfxEeOEhsEo5PYg1Z-oB8NjE5YGbnJKeYHiKYw0e4GN3vBtoB-CC_llgRpU3iRwzT0CqyODzUDd8YK41Sds7H/s1600-h/pumpkinpatch08+004.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8bKU0Ts-DmGgSfLvc9ekheKSTxYVj-QPiiZNqjgpFDJxpY1SKTzxBjodVfxEeOEhsEo5PYg1Z-oB8NjE5YGbnJKeYHiKYw0e4GN3vBtoB-CC_llgRpU3iRwzT0CqyODzUDd8YK41Sds7H/s320/pumpkinpatch08+004.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255174489780200498" border="0" /></a><br />CArson's preschool went to the pumkin patch today. We had a great time. It was nice to spend time together. It was like a little date. We held hands and walked to each activity. HE rode the coolest little ponies, pet a bunch of goats at the petting zoo (they should have called it the goat zoo), jumped on a bunch of bouncing blow-up balloons, and took a hay ride to get our pumpkins. We had a nice little lunch and then left. IT was a fun day. He thought these bumpy pumpkins were wierd.Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-33979690700997220492008-10-02T08:28:00.000-07:002008-10-02T08:54:08.185-07:00Alabama Beach before the storms<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuW-OG2riCuocJKvMy7ZRLIzI6ko1jDqzGKJwdn0EtuLLGlaZ4SmgEfCUlOw-nFQCySDn4zo-RUVs8KEjns6iW_nCYUW6e4dPYnzWouhwh5hWSM5cp10EwlKlwM2XyWZW16_Rm8490umE0/s1600-h/macie+6bday+024.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuW-OG2riCuocJKvMy7ZRLIzI6ko1jDqzGKJwdn0EtuLLGlaZ4SmgEfCUlOw-nFQCySDn4zo-RUVs8KEjns6iW_nCYUW6e4dPYnzWouhwh5hWSM5cp10EwlKlwM2XyWZW16_Rm8490umE0/s320/macie+6bday+024.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5252583221015164450" border="0" /></a>We took the kids to the beach a couple of weeks ago. We had a blast. HAnnah practiced her splits in the sand (she wants to try out for cheer squad) and swam the whole time. Carson was like a little fish. We had to watch him like a hawk. Ella and Macie picked up shells to add to their rock collections. They had their little hind ends in the air most of the trip. I think that is MAcie's in the picture. It was beautiful weather. It was hard to believe that the hurricane hit the next day - full force.

She is 6 years old already. She is truly my sweet little lady! SHe woke up today so excited about her special day. When she got home from school Jeff had her a special surprise..... A new kitty. She has been wanting one for so long and the answer was always NO!!! What changed you ask??? Well, our new house is surrounded by Kudzu (a very irritating, fast growing, climbs up everything plant). When Jeff was mowing it down in our yard I saw several mice run off. Now, if there mice there are snakes and who knows what else. Yikes!!! The pest control man said that we need to get an outdoor kitty to keep the rodents away. He said it works great and is safer than chemicals or poisons. SO.. now we have a cute orange kitty. Macie is in love. Hannah thinks she is the boss of it and Ella just cries nonstop because she wants a kitty too.

In June we moved to Millbrook, Alabama. Jeff got a new job as Assn't Manager at Hyundia. It is a great job! He really likes it. Hopefully we will be here a bit longer than we were in Texas. We realllly miss Texas( at lest us girls do). We also miss all of our Texas friends. Even though we were only there for a year; we made soooo many fun and memorable friends!!!!<br />Well, this is where our journey began. <br />We moved into a small apartment in June while we looked for a house to rent. The girls went to Kentucky in July and spent almost a month with their grandparents, Roy and Gracie. What a help that was!! I went back to Texas to get us moved and rent out the house. After leaving Texas we met the movers in Alabama in our new rental. I spent the rest of the week unpacking as fast as I could cause I had to leave to catch a flight out of Lexington, ky to go to Idaho and see Sophie be born!! That was the most amazing thing ever!!!! I will never forget Seeing Sophie take her first breath! AWESOME!! I have had 4 kids but never have seen a birth up close and personal. Thanks Callie for sharing it with me!. After our Boise trip I came back to Ky to get the girls. We drove back to Alabama and started school 3 days later!<br />NEW NEWS:<br />We just bought a new house! It is beautiful. I found a foreclosure on my daily listing e-mail, so my realtor and I went to check it out and made an offer that night. We weren't planning on moving so soon. I DREAD packing and moving again so SOON!!!!! This better be the last time!<br />The kids also have to change schools again- they aren't too happy.<br />So this is where we are at. I'll keep you all better posted from now on.Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-12848008809692093482007-12-07T22:59:00.000-08:002008-09-25T17:35:21.746-07:00Address for ChristmasHere is our new San antonio address:<br />1904 clearbranch<br />deatsville AL,36022<br />I also need address for Christmas cards so send me a note if you all can :)Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-77162359204664069062007-12-07T22:15:00.000-08:002007-12-07T22:41:38.970-08:00We're moving to ALABAMA???!!!<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"><span style="font-family: lucida grande;"><span style="font-family: lucida grande;">So I guess we are moving. Again- So soon?? I am definately not looking forward to moving again!! The kids and I were getting into a groove here. We were making friends and going lots of fun places. We have really liked living in San Antonio. I can honestly say we have met some true life long friends here in such a short time. I just hope we fit in and find a groove in Alabama. Hundai (however you spell it) wants him to start either Jan 14 or 28th. I think we are going for the 28th. The company is moving us and we will live in furnished corporate housing for 3 months. Hopefully we can sell our house here quickly. Two house payments will be ugly!!! Jeff is really looking forward to his new position. He can't wait to be on 1st shift and wear kahkis to work everyday. Kind of strange for him- he's been on nights for 12 years!!!! He's sure has done his time. <br />All I know is we are going to try to make the best of our time left here in San Antonio. We are going to have a great holiday with our great friends and try to take lots of pictures to remember everybody. I know the Lord is guiding our path, so I trust that Alabama will be another exciting and special place that we soon will love. Please, oh please, let it be a good place for us........<br />We went to a Stake Christmas party tonight and had so much fun. I sang a song in the program with some friends and the kids had a wild time with friends and poor Jeff..... had to work.... The holiday is going to be so busy with all sorts of fun things. I'll keep you posted!!!!<br /></span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></span></span>Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550283701569053783.post-69812214561044631072007-11-22T18:18:00.000-08:002007-11-22T18:23:27.969-08:00Thanksgiving<span style="font-family: georgia;">We had a great Thanksgiving. All together we had 23 people and way too much food- crammed into one house. It was a fun holiday. Nothing is better than friends , food, and a football game. Jeff also got a call from Alabama yesterday to let him know that the job was his. He will be hearing more next week. That will be something to look forward to. I am excited to see what they offer him. Also we are trying to decide if we are going to sell or rent. Any advice? Let me know. Any person experienced would be greatly appreciated. Now to get ready for Christmas. Holy toledo!!!<br />I haven't hardly gotten started. SCARY!!!!!<br /></span>Parrott Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10610985309009255857noreply@blogger.com6
