In here, life is beautiful.-Cabaret

Chad and I try to go to Abingdon, VA to see a play every year at the Barter Theater. It is one of my favorite places to go. The town is so pretty and the actors at the Barter are wonderful!!!
This year we saw Cabaret! It is my favorite play we have seen so far. My husband said he still likes Dracula best!! I do think we were probably the youngest people in the playhouse that day!! LOL If you dont know anything about Cabaret then all I will say is its definately "mature" themed! The gasps from the little old women were so funny!! I'm sure they were thinking "Well, I've never!!!" LOL
The actors were so good! They made the play so enjoyable and the standing ovation was WELL deserved! I would highly recommend this play, it ends in Novemeber so take a drive up to Abingdon and enjoy the show!
I LOVE plays!!! I wish I could see one every week!






Does it really matter so long as you're having fun?--Sally Bowles

Well I finally did it.....

I actually decided to go on Facebook Vacation! I was on it way too much and decided to detox myself. I went three weeks without ANY FB!! I am getting on to share pics and see what my friends are doing but NO MORE having to be on FB everyday...my life is way too busy for that!!!

More and More Cross Country..GO BULLDOGS!!!!

4th race of the season was at Hardin Valley Academy! It was a good course for the kids to run but NOT spectator friendly at all! We saw them run by at the beginning and then saw them run through the finish shoot!!

More Cross Country..GO BULLDOGS!!!!

3rd Race of the season was at Melton Hill Park. It was a good run and we all got some exercise hiking to the course and back to the car!!!! LONG walk!!





2nd Race of the season was at Cove Lake State Park. It was a tough course!! But the girls did great!!!

The Mudroom

We decided to turn our old coat closet into a mudroom. I took pics of the entire process but we decided we only needed one computer in the house so we put mine away. We thought we had backed up all my photos but realized it copied my husbands files OVER mine!!!! So now I have to try to recover ALL my photos off my hard drive. No time for that right now so all I have are pics of the finished product!! We painted it to match the playroom. The inside of the door has basket weave trim. I found the bench at Homegoods! LOVE IT!! I think it came together rather nice considering how long it actually took to complete this "SMALL" project!!!

Brady's First Playgroup

My friend Becky just moved to town and is starting a weekly playgroup. Brady had never been to a playgroup before. He had such a good time and it was really nice for him to be around another little boy!! Hes surrounded by girls! LOL

He enjoyed playing with his friends Alex and Alyssa. Cant wait for next week!!

Cross Country! Go Bulldogs!!!!!!

Abby joined the Cross Country team at her school this year. Tuesday was her first race and it was pouring rain and chilly!! What a way to start the season and her very first school sporting event!!

She did great and had such a wonderful time!

The elementary school girls run 1 mile.
Abbys time was 8 minutes and 42 seconds.

She had fun even in the rain!!! Go Bulldogs!!!!
