Well what's been going on...

What you think of my new Background!! I love http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com it's free and very cute!! Thank You for allowing me to change and make my Blog cute and not boring!!

Well you know when the Cat's away the mice will play.... Mom and Dad left town for a couple of day's. So we are not really acting busy at all. I'm trying to find out how to make a spooky veggie tray for Carson's first school Halloween party. It's tomorrow, last min thing. I really wanted to do something special for him. But all I'm coming up with, the kids would prob. not want to eat. We are talking about three year old's. They are picky eater's anyway. So it will prob end up being a simple veggie tray. Anyway Halloween is tomorrow, and the costume that I had picked out for Carson he won't where!! I had it in mind, to not really spend alot of money on a goofy costume this year. I mean twenty dollars for a thing to where for one night. How crazy!! Anyway I come up with a construction worker. You know, shirt, jeans, and toy tool belt and a hard hat. We had it, no money and simple. But noooooo, he wont where to tool belt nor the hard hat. So my mother, bought the little guy a Thomas the train costume!! Spoilt I tell ya!!

So that's what we will be doing tomorrow night. I have a list of about 10-15 houses to trick or treat!! Mainly the older people at church. We save the big Trunk or Treat for last!! They have games and prizes for the kids. I try to get to everybody, but since it's on a Friday night, Carson doesn't have to be in bed early! The sad thing is mom and dad won't be able to see him in his costume!! Oh well, that's OK, we will be taking a bunch of pictures.

Carson went to Aunt Sissy's church last night and carved a little pumpkin!! He told me he took out the inside, because it represented sin!! He said he put a smiley face on it, to represent a smiling face for God. And he put a candle in to represent the light we should shine for God. How cool was that, I mean who would have thought of that!! So we will be lighting our pumpkin tomorrow night to shine our light for the world. Happy Halloween!! Be safe and Have some good fun!!

Ok...I'm Thirty!!

I know, it's been a week since I blogged. Well this week has been crazy at work. Our computer system decided to go on the Fritz's!! So haven't' had time to blog!! Anyway, just letting you know what happen on my b-day, well nothing really!! I'm now a week older and I don't feel any different!! I celebrated my birthday by putting together our Hayride at church. It was soooo cool, we generally have a small group. There where 41 people there and 12 of them where children. So the hayride, had about 25 people on it. So that was pretty exciting. Carson fell asleep on the Hay Ride. It's really hard when your parent's are in charge of an event and you have to tag around with them. So they are there for the preparation plus the event. So my little man did not have a nap all day. But we where glad everyone had a really good time.

This week was pretty calm in the Roush household, until Wednesday!! You see even though we work for my Mom and Dad. My husband still doesn't have a work truck. We never really have pushed the ideal of him getting one. So he has to drive his truck!! Well Wednesday at noon, he got rear ended pretty bad. He went to the ER, to get x-ray's and cat scan. He as a neck sprain, other than that he is pretty sore. We found out yesterday it's going to coast over $6,000. to fix the truck (way more than what the truck is worth). The frame bent and major damage to the back. I really don't know what is going to happen. What really gets me, is we had only two more month's till we paid the thing off!! We have been very excited that it was fixing to be free and clear of money!! Also it get's me really tick off at the guy, he wasn't even paying any attention of what he was doing. He didn't know he even hit David, until the airbag came out and hit him!! Plus the guy that was riding with him, had a warrant out for his arrest!! The little s-10 wasn't even his truck. It belonged to someone else. Plus the cop told us that he keep lying about some thing's. Luckily there was insurance's involved. Otherwise we would have been up the creek without a paddle!! We just Thank God that nobody got hurt.

I hope everyone else has had a good week!! Please pray for David and I. We are singing for a benefit singing tomorrow night. I'm very nervous, because it's outside. I'm just worried I won't here our music. Anyway, just pray that we will be able to spread God's Work through Song!!

Hope everyone will have a good weekend. God Bless!!

I'm 30 today!!!!!!!!!!!!

One More day till I turn 30...

Yeah!! Well it's just about here!! I Just really don't know how to react!! I walk in at work this morning and well let me just say it is raining the number 30 over my desk!! I've got a sign over my desk that declares I'm Over the Hill. I have a balloon with the number 30 on it. There are white and black streamer's hanging over my desk. The balloon's say Still Wild at 30!! I tell you what!! I do not feel old. There is so much that has happened in my life, and I don't know why I'm trying to feel different. It's just a number, a age, everyone will approach, this point in there life. So right now I'm just going with it, I'm turning 30!! I feel like I'm in one of those group session's saying...Hi, my name is Amy and I'm turning 30!!

Anyway one last memory I have, before I put my birthday memories to rest. Is when I turned eighteen. Where life as a Teenager ends and life as an adult begins. So Here is my last memory as a teenager.

I actually had a hard time figuring out what to do for my 18th party. I mean it was going to be hard to top my sweet 16 party. So I decided to go back to the park, and just have all my girlfriends around. Mom was able to help me on this party (No broken foot). We had another cook out, and my friends went crazy. We danced, we laughed, we talked, and we just hung out. It was sooo cool. As I think about it, It was one of the last parties, where everyone came together and just had fun. So here are some crazy pictures of me and my friends!!

There are a few pictures of me at church. My Grandmother made me a Birthday cake and our real good friend Mrs. Dorthy Johnson surprised me at church. I also got a suitcase for my birthday!! It was suppose to be for my graduation, but they gave it to me early. I had a Senior Trip to Florida and no suitcase. The whole 18th Birthday kinda gets me sad. I was the only grand daughter that my grandmother got to celebrate turning eighteen. I had my birthday in October and my grandmother died in April!! But she lived life full just like I'm planning on doing!!

There is nothing I would take back or do different on my Birthday's, because it was a chance to celebrate my life. No mater what the number on the cake is or was, or the amount of people that was around. I think everyone should celebrate their life. God created you and you should celebrate the miracle of your life. Soooo That's what I'm doing, because the old lady hasn't sung yet. So look Out World I'm Turning Thirty Tomorrow!!

Three More Day's Left...

I can't believe it is getting soooo close till I turn 30. I got spoil yesterday for my birthday! We had to take Carson to Memphis to the Dr. (He is fine, Right Kidney is still small but it is growing, plus he was very good to go through the testing they did. He told us that the potty training will just take time because he is not a normal little boy. So Carson got a clean bill of health. Thanks for Praying for Him, we appreciate your concern.)

Anyway while we where in Memphis, we went to my favorite place to eat Olive Garden. I love Italian Food, the only thing is we don't have one at home. So it's a special treat, to get to go. Plus we went to Garden Ridge, Love it, Love it. It's a craft store, and it's in warehouse!! I got to go down 10 rows of nothing but Christmas Ornaments!! It's sooo cool!!

I didn't scan any pictures of my last birthday memories, before I was an adult. I will make sure and do that tomorrow. Since I only have a couple of day's left. So that's about what happened yesterday. My mom ordered my Birthday Presents online and I'm very grateful for her. It's getting exciting since I will be spending my birthday with people I love. Our church is having a weenie roast and hayride. I love it, outside, cool weather, and having fun! What could a girl turning thirty ask for!

Four More Day's Left...

Today, we are going to Carson's Urologist Appointment! To make sure that his kidney's are working OK. Please keep him in your prayer's today!! I know in my heart that everything will be fine. So I'm blogging early today!!

This Post is a major event in my life!! I'm blogging about my sweet sixteen birthday!! It was a crazy event in my life. My life was busy with event's in band and choir!! That was my life back then and the people I mainly hung out at that time, where music people. I spent nearly everyday and every weekend with them. Friends that where like family to me!! So it was no surprising that my birthday party had alot of my friends. When I say alot, I counted about forty people showed up. It was sooo crazy. Plus during that time my mother fell and broke her foot, so I had to plan and had to have other adults to help out. Even my pastor and his wife where there. I was also dating a guy at this time, His name was Joel Hollis I meet him at a church function of my best friends! I dated him for a month or so. Then I broke up with him. But he was a couple of year's older.

Anyway, most sixteen year old's usually get a car. Well I didn't even have my license yet!! (How crazy was that) It wasn't till after I turned sixteen that I got my license!! So No CAR!! But I got to redo and decorate my bedroom. At the party we played games, and had a cook out. It was at a park, so there was a bunch of craziness going on. One of my older cousins, almost got thrown into the Lake. The party lasted till about midnight, and everybody started to leave. But it was fun, and to top it all off. There where no drinking and nothing wild. Just crazy southern fun.

Well told you, it was crazy!! Just another birthday!

When I was younger, I lived for Birthday's, I just don't no how to react to

them now that I'm getting older!!

Five more Day's Left....

WOO!! HOO!! It's five day's till I get Older!! I'm blogging about my Thirteen birthday today. Ok, Let's just remember I was a teenager!! LOL!! During this time, I was in seventh grade, I actually thought I new everything!! I had the bright idea of cutting my hair very short. During the summer before I started school, my cousin and I decided to put lemon juice in our hair. We set out in the sun at the lake. It turned my hair very blonde. It was awful looking. You be the judge of my hair style in the pictures. I was in 7th grade band at that time. So all I wanted to do was go to the Football game and hang out with my friends. It was fun, we came back and had cake and ice cream. So as I look upon these pictures, it's a common question!! What was I thinking. And I'll I got for my birthday where clothes!! It's been good looking back and viewing how thing's and styles have changed. About me and the people around me!! Plus it's embarrassing!!
