Also I know this image is horrible, I think it may be time for a new scanner...but you get the idea!

I had originally planed on doing this last night but time got away from us and it was so late that I couldn't do it, I had to go to bed! So as Mr. K was running out the door this morning I put all the names in a bowl and he picked the two winners!
And they are...
Congratulations to Marie W at My Expected End and Jus and Kat from In Dylan's Memory!
Please e-mail me at ka_hall at att dot net so we can work out what you want in your frames and I can get them in the mail to each of you ASAP!
Also I wanted to say a Big Thank you to everyone that commented yesterday, it was so nice to get on and read all of your wonderful comments! And it made me realize how important commenting is and how good it makes you feel! For a long time now I have "lurked" at many of your blogs and not commented but after yesterday I'm going to do my best to stop lurking!
Make sure to swing in Our Lives Forever Changed today and see what Susan is giving away!
I found it at a local shop and it had a bow tied to the bottom but I decided I would change it up a bit so I added a crystal and two charms. One charm says love in English on one side and has the Chinese symbol on the the other side. The other charm is a frame.
Yes that's right I said winners! In honor of my Birthday this coming Friday I decided that I would giveaway two! Mr.K made me promise to let him help so we will put all of the names in a hat late tonight and he will draw the winners! All you need to do to enter is leave a comment!
Maggie got a new toy...it is her new favorite!
Maggie doing her best to look extra cute for the camera. 
Cousin Daisy Dog...letting us see how well she can behave after her schooling!
Maggie and Daisy, who are bestest friends, playing with the new toy! They ran all around the yard just like this for over an hour! 

So I have vowed to immerse myself in the planning and prepping and to think happy, Very HAPPY, thoughts!
Her brother Miles. Luckily Miles only stayed about a week, but even still there was a LOT of poop!
I have to admit I was really worried at first and thought we were going to end up with both Maggie and Miles if she didn't perk up but she did!
She has a duck that she caries all over the house and the yard. (I think Mr. K might have to take up hunting just so he can take Maggie!)
She waits "patiently" for her meals! Yeah right, but she sure tries! In this picture she is waiting for a carrot! And this morning she completely impressed my brother with her tricks! She has already learned to sit, shake, lay down and roll over! She hasn't fully gotten roll over, but she is very close! She is such a quick learner! If only she would house train that easy!
She likes to watch TV
But not commercials!

And she loves to sleep just like this! Doesn't that look comfortable? And even with the storm we had last night she slept the whole night for the very first time! Granted she was awake at 6am, but that was a lot better than 2am!
And I promise I will do my best to blog about things other than Maggie but right now there is not a lot going on! Hope everyone has a great weekend! It finally feels like fall here and I am super EXCITED, too bad Mr. K is working this weekend!




I remembered everything...except mine and Mr.K's cards! I felt so guilty, but it worked out just fine...I had several extra blank cards. 

The Balloons they went off with out a hitch...well most of them!
I have to admit it was really funny to watch Mr. K and T get them down!
After we watched the balloons float far far away, we went home for dinner and cupcakes.
We lit Birthday candles and started to sing Happy Birthday but I got a little emotional so we didn't. I really wanted to, but it made me so sad when I started thinking about it!
I really loved these Rainbow Cupcakes that Monica made for Jack so I thought I would make some for the girls!
Monica's turned out a lot better then mine but I still enjoyed making them and they were just perfect for the girls Birthday!
If I did not mention it before I really had a wonderful day with my friends and family and I am so thankful for all of you! And all of your support, it means the world to the both Mr.K and I!



And I'm not sure why but everyone LOVES this picture! 


And considering that they are located directly on the ship chanel, there grounds always look so pretty, had it not been so darn hot I think I would have talked Mr. K into a walk around the grounds, but when we left just after 1pm it was already 99ยบ, so we didn't!
