How could I forget!!!

For whatever reason I thought I had already shared with you all what my husband suprised me with this past christmas?!!?! He got me an upright bass!! It is gorgeous! I have wanted one for aVERY long time.... At first, some 10 years ago, I told him they are a gorgeous instrument, I'd love to have it in the corner of a room as a piece of ART!!! of course that's not realistic.....so, ya know, we didn't get one!

Last may, 2009...we went to a bluegrass festival with his family, and His uncle and I were just chatting away and My husband started to play a tune and his uncle joined in, I said, ok, someone tell me what to do on the Bass, and I'll play this one....I LOVED IT INSTANTLY!!...Apparently my husband was so impressed at how fast I picked it up, he purchased this bass the weekend we got home!!! So on christmas morning, I WAS IN SHOCK!!!!!!!!!!!! It is such a cool thing that he thought so much of how well I did. Makes it such a special gift....one that brings us even closer than we are. We play music together, practice together, and enjoy it so much!!!

The other night, we had some friends over and before we went out, we decided to play a few tunes, my first time playing in front of people besides him, and my father in law, who also teaches me when we are together....I HAD A BLAST!!!!!!! So, the pic you see above, that is my first pic playing! I'M SO PROUD!!! Ok....more to come, tomorow! I'm a bloggin' fool tonight!!!

Good night! FOR REAL!

Hello Darlin'....Nice to see ya!

WOW!!! It's been a VERY long time. Looks like last time I updated you folks was January!! YIKES!

Let me fill you in, I have been working, a few different jobs here and there taking up alot of this stay at home momma's free time. Then we headed down south on a road trip with our camper for about 3 weeks! Boy was the southern climate nice to us!!!! At any rate, I have BARELY baked anything, or sewn ....well AT ALL! But I did however take, brace yourselves, 1500 pictures during our road trip...Destination...DIGITAL SCRAPBOOK!!!

Yes I SAID DIGITAL!! Ok.... all of my family and friends scrapbook....but I guess I'm just not into cutting and pasting and all that jazz...too teidious for me. So....I went to a creative memories party at my best friend's house, and That girl did a wonderful job of selling me the $200.00 digital program!!!! Well, I have yet to install it and try it out, but it sounds like I will love it! so...those pics will be put to good use!

So....My good friend Callie asked me to blog, well several things I have posted recently and I have not gotten around to it.... but tonight I posted my first attempt at a frozen treat, and Here I am, per her request blogging it :) I missed blogging anyways, I just needed a good boot in the....fanny to get back on here and do it! Thanks Callie!!! So here goes....
