Sad mixed with fun and Love!

I am afraid my dear bloggy friends that I must start this post off with some sad news. I hate leaving on a sour note so I want to start this way.

Yesterday at 2pm I found out a friend of mine passed away. Ben was 24 and I ment him and his family when I was living in Texas. He went to the same church as me and we were in the collage and career class for sunday school together. Was an awsome guy and really loved the Lord. Yesterday morning he was cleaning one of his guns and somehow it was still loaded (not sure all the details) the gun went off and shot him right in the heart. He died on the spot. My heart sank when I heard the news:( Please keep his family in your prayers.

Second sad thing....Steelers lost the Super Bowl. BUT......We did well, and we did make it to the SuperBowl unlike some other teams! So I guess I can smile!

Well...Its Monday so I really must get on to some happy things! Lets start with

I got my third hole on Saturday!

I really, really, really like it! I thought it would be allot of pain getting it done, but it really was not all that bad! I was impressed!

Well..on to the next thing!

I am in on this amazing Swap and Challange:

And today is day Number ONE!

When I need some me time I {LOVE} to...

hmmm...well..there would be several answers to that question :

1. Go for a LONG walk

I love walking and just enjoying nature, its so relaxing

2. Taking Photos

It just seems to calm me down, helps me look on other things

3. Watch a movie

So relaxing

4. Blogging, for real, it helps!

And one other fun thing:

Yep..I did not get linked up last week and was actually kinda bummed..I missed you guys!

So welcome to any new people! Sorry this post was kind of a downer!

So ready for the weekend!

This young man is AMAZING! Why? Well, he plays for my favorite NFL Team, he loves the Lord, and he makes some great football plays!

And this man, he is awsome! He may be the coach, but he is so calm at games and asked the Lord for wisdom!

yep, my Steelers!

and yes, Im a number 7 fan!

Well, as y'all can see im rooting for the Steelers to win the Super Bowl! Been a Steelers fan all my life! So excited were playing Super Bowl for the 8th time!

So, the Super Bowl is one reason why I am so ready for this weekend!

A few others, well, lets see...

This week has been kinda crappy!

People in the office and there family as well. Just treating people nasty for no reason, well, mostly treating me that way. Ya, not fun.

Its been snow snow snow all week, so we have been getting allot done in the office, but everyone has been cooped up here in are property and the nerves are running thin!

But..A few things to cheer me up!

Its is the weekend! And its gonna be a good one! Super Bowl Party at my Aunt and Uncles house! Im baking homeaid bagels right now (i will share the recipie if it turns out!) and Im getting my third hole done tomorrow! Will get pictures!

Ok, In other news, I will have several post up this next week. One will be on the Fundraiser I did! I closed it and we got $25 dollors donated! Im major excited.

Also, keep an eye open...I have a givaway thats going to be on next week!
