To all you 'hopeless romantics', and "LIFETIME MOVIE" lovers, I came upon a great one today. LOL Rob kept asking, "Why are we watching this again?" If you have Comcast, go to "On Demand" and click on "FREE MOVIES". It's called "STAR STRUCK" and it has Kirk Cameron in it.
If you want to know what this song is from, head on over to Robbie's new blog. I promise your life will never be the same again. (Oh, and leave him a comment so he'll feel loved). :)
Whether we like it or not, summer is over and it's time for school. Today was Logan's 1st day of 2nd grade and I seriously can't believe it.... so weird. He had a great first day... one of his best friends is in his class and he really likes his new teacher! Here's to another fun year of reading, writing and arithmetic!
A way to journal some things you have done or not done in your life. All you have to do is copy the list and bold what you have done. (Select the list, CTRL-C copies it, CTRL-V pastes it into your blog, select the list and CTRL-B bolds everything, then do CTRL-B again and everything will be un-bolded and ready for you to play.) I added my own info in parentheses. Feel free to delete those on your own list.
