The Haywards Missionary Adventures

Pinewood Derby! Sam usually lets the boys design their own car and then he cuts it out for them. However we waited till the last minute so Sam did most the work. Cody however painted his car and I believe did something to the wheels.(?) Cody's car came in Second Place! Yahoo! I actually didn't get to see the majority of the races because Brandon was having an allergy attack (his eyes swell shut) so I ran home for medicine. When I got back they were taking everything down and the kids were all running around like little crazy people. Rocket Ships... Another one of those waiting till the last minute. And I mean last minute!! We went simple with a skinny red rocket. And we WON!! First Place! (I'm not competitive at all) I have to confess that there were problems with the track. However, a wins a win, right? We had allot of fun! And my wish for next year is to not PROCRASTINATE!

Old Navy has Solid Color Flip Flops on Sale for $1 on the 23rd Only. I think there is a limit of 5 per person. Go early...Old Navy gets crazy with sales like these. Plus bring cash if you can because last year @ the $8 jean sale (Lakewood store)they demanded the kids have cash and couldn't pay with Mom and Dads debit card. (Long Story) Check with your local Store

I am NOT Photogenic!! Or at least lately I have not seen one Picture I like. Which gets me thinking... Do I really look like this in real life? What's on my upper lip? Ink...Mustache...connect the dots? Plus what's up with the face? Am I trying to look thinner...I'm a fish... a sad attempt of a kissy face. What's with the hair? I know I spent hours upon hours getting it just right and it looks like I stepped out of bed and left the house. And What are my hands doing in their pockets? Come on Cindy, Don't you know you look like a DORK! O.K. Why am I sideways? I mean really? Now here is a picture! 1st What's with the HAIR! 2nd the double chin has to go! And 3rd I could really use a new Bra! (One that lift's) What's with the Smile? Plus where did my upper lip go? Maybe I'm being to hard on myself. But is it to much to ask for the perfect picture? LOL ;)

This past Saturday I set off to JcPenny's to spend the $10 coupon they sent me. I had many ideas on what I could buy and started putting scenarios together. As I walked in the Store the thoughts of a new Dress wouldn't leave my mind. I finally found this 2 piece Jacket and Skirt that I just had to have. So I proceeded to look for my size..there were only three on the rack size 10..12..16. The size 12 (I don't like trying on clothes at the store and a size 12 is my average size) which is the one I wanted was missing the Jacket. I started to think that a dress was out of the question when I decided to go try on the 10 and to my sweet surprise it FITS (I will not be washing this in the case that it decides to shrink) LOL ! As I was buttoning up the Jacket I realized a button was missing! UGH ! With that little glimpse of hope I walked up to the Register and showed her the missing button she proceeded to show me the extra button attached to the Jacket and asked if this wa...

You know your a Redneck when... You patch up your tire with masking Tape! LOL ! Yesterday some friends of Ours noticed that we had a flat tire. We proceeded to look the tire over trying to figure out where the leak was. We tried to fill the tire with air when they realized that the valve had been sliced open (most likely from the hub cap). We had 2 options..1. change the tire to the spare or 2. temporary patch the hole and drive to the nearest shop. Let's just say Tape fixes everything!! We got a few chuckles from the gentlemen who worked on the tire. My sweet husband tried blaming me for the tape. But I stood my ground and set them all straight....I never would have used blue tape..I would have gone for something more vibrant like pink tape. The question of the Day is... What is the craziest thing you have seen or done?

I was looking through the pictures on my camera trying to figure out what I had. This particular picture I didn't take. But looking at it reminded me of Harry Potter and the dementors . And I thought Harry Potter was fictional. But I have proof that the dementors were at the Pinewood derby sucking the life out of these boys. LOL
