Too Cute for Words

Guess Who's Learning to Drive???

Oh yes we have started this adventure!!!! She actually picked up really well. Her daddy is teaching her how to drive in these pics. He said she did really well. She only got a little too close to a fence, but corrected it easily. She only had to be reminded to apply the breaks when she came to an intersection.


Yes it's hard to believe our 15 year old can start driving now!! Oh my!!!


Well now we're going to have to start titling these "Adventures in Driving with Shelby". :)

1st Day of P90X!

Well this morning I was up at 4:53 a.m. Yes you read that right! Did the Core Synergistics and it was awesome! 57 minutes workout! Granted I couldn't do as many reps, but absolutely loved it! My favorite was the banana roll..... ha!


Yes I did this move this morning!!

Tomorrow is Cardio X. I will post about that later. It's only 43 minutes HA!!!

Can you bring it????

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHELBY!!!

Happy Birthday Shelby girl!!! She's 15 today!!! If you want to be technical she'll be 15 at 9:53 p.m. I love you Shebby girl!!!!

P90X Begins

Well after walking for 6 months (still going), and after working out with the Wii Active and Cardio Gold Gym, I have decided to start a new workout. This is called P90X. Some of you might have heard of it and some of you might not. My understanding it's called Muscle Confusion and you do something different each day for 90 days. This keeps from plateauing and keeps you interested.

So starting out they want you to take before shots. Then in 30 days, I'll take another set of photos, then 60 days, then the 90 days. You should be able to tell amazing results by then. I have researched this and looked at YouTube videos and I'm convinced this might really work!

I'm so embarrassed to show these pictures to everyone, BUT I need help in keeping me accountable. So please send me your comments and encouragement.....

These are the front pictures....




The side profile... (I had to keep reminding myself not to suck it in!!)


The back poses....




So now that I'm extremely embarrassed for showing these, I still hope you will support and encourage me on this new adventure. Hopefully I'll tough this out and you'll start seeing less and less of me......

Shelby Is Turning 15!

My baby will be turning 15 tomorrow. Seems like she should only be 5.....

Today we had a family birthday party. Next week-end she is having friends come over and go bowling, and that will be her other birthday party.

We made her birthday cake. Floyd tradition..... I think it turned out great!


Birthday girl and her daddy...... I think he's having a hard time seeing his baby girl grow up too. :)


Blow out the candles!! 1 - 2 - 3!!!!


Shelby blowing out the candles...


Here are a couple of pics of Shelby opening her cards. We realize that as they get older, they no longer get presents, they get money!!!




Robert and I got Shelby the most hilarious card. Shelby loves Happy Bunny and we found a card with it and it also involved farting.....


Can you see how excited she is????


My mom got her the coolest tights..... They're a turquoise, with black stripes, almost like tiger or zebra stripes...


Family was here and so was Shelby's boyfriend. Which is becoming something we're having to get use to. Her liking boys now..... Where's my little girl????

Happy Birthday Shelby girl! I love you more then you could ever imagine!! I'm so lucky to have you as my daughter.... Love, Mom

Go Eagles!!!

Tonight was Meet the Eagles night. Harley is a cheerleader this year and also in band. So she had to be there for both things. She did so good cheering this evening. Can't wait for everyone to come out and see her cheer. Such a HUGE improvement this year so far. Of course fifth and sixth grade she only practiced once or twice a week, and cheered at a game once a week. This year I have to have her to school by 7:30 - Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and she has afternoon practice on Tuesdays. So she is getting more training this year then before.

Ashley had my old sunglasses on. I had to get her pic.


The cheerleader herself.... They wore their spirit shirts and sophie shorts and cheer shoes, and bows today. Can't wait to get a picture of her in her cheerleader uniform.


Harley during a cheer.


And another one....


Go Eagles Go!!!

Shelby's 1st Day!

Today was Shelby's first day at her new school, Parkview. She doesn't know anyone and so we were both a little nervous..... :)

It was like starting kindergarten with her all over again. She seemed like she had a good day.

I took this pic of us this morning before I took her to school. Boy do we look alike!!!

Here's to the new school year, and new adventure!

Creative Thinking!!

Shelby can be so creative at times! ha ha!!! She has on her xbox headset with her cell phone strapped to it, so she can talk on the phone and play her xbox at the same time. Of course I had to get a picture of this!



She was a little irritated because I wanted to take her picture. I just thought she was so creative!!! When your blue tooth is messed up, this is another way of doing things! ha ha!!



Oh Shelby, what will you think of next?
