They tied Kenai today, so not a complete loss of points this weekend!

Carson's team lost 3 games this weekend so far. So they are not doing to well in the win column, but at least I got a couple of good shots of Carson!

I've been tagged!

1. I cry every single time, I mean every single time I watch any of those Baby Story type of shows. You know the ones where they show the birth.....but yet I didn't cry when I saw my own children for the first time. Maybe I was in shock, or in pain from the birth, I don't know, because my boys are my entire life right now, but that is sorta strange.

2. I have MVP-Mitral Value Prolapse...a mild form of it, diagnosed in the hospital when I had Carson. My heart will beat really irregulary, or skip beats at times. I found I can control it with no caffeine, or less caffeine. No coffee or caffeine soda for me, but that doesn't stop me from chocolate!

3. I played UAF volleyball with 2 teammates who have been on Oprah & Dr. Phil. One for a sex change operation and the other for marital problems. A 3rd teammate years later, killed a retired police chief and then killed herself. I keep wondering if any of my other teammates will make TV or the paper??

4. I have worn a St. Christopher's medal for my necklace since around my sophomore year of college.....about 20+ years. My husband and kids don't have to worry about jewlery shopping for me very much. I must get it from my Dad.

5. I take flight anxiety pills every time I fly. When I was at UAF for volleyball, we landed in Denver one time, and a plane had just recently crashed there, and it was pushed off to the side, still smoldering. Then a friend of mine from UAF, his brother was killed in a small plane crash. I never wanted to fly again, and in fact didn't for about 11 years or so. Then September 11th happened, and I heard about the guys who stopped their plan from crashing into the white house, and I know it doesn't make sense, as many then feared flight travel, but I felt braver for some reason because of their actions. I also knew my older boy would be starting to travel for hockey, and I didn't want to miss his games. My Dr. prescribed the pills....easy going every since.

6. I collected Beanie Babies. haha....I admit it. Have a gigantic storage box filled with them in my crawl space. Anyone want to buy them? My sickness with them, carried over to my parents and my sister in law. I'm sorry I spread that to you! haha

7. I'm afraid to drive over bridges. I'm not talking about little overpasses, or the cushman street bridge in Fairbanks. I'm talking the big ones. Like the one in BC, I think at Fort St. John.....OMG, it was metal grate bridge and super high....I panicked, froze up and stopped the car. Derek had to come back over get me. (we were in seperate cars) I only have this problem if I am the one driving....when I am not driving I just look straight ahead and yell at whoever is driving to be looking straight ahead and not over into the water. I have this problem on or around cliff edges as well. My grandmother didn't like heights either...I probably get it from her. I don't like walking over bridges either.......ack!

Lucy-your next!

Our 14th family member is soon on her way.....

This a youtube video of my 8 year old niece Maggie playing in her very first basketball game. I think she scored 8 points. She is #5 in the light green jersey. She is a very good soccer player, but now has a new love with basketball! Soon I will have pictures of her new baby sister due any day now!

Okay, I just had to do one more. He learned this one today. Can anyone guess what tv show theme song it is? It is our one of our families most favorite shows.....Sorry for the long upload and be sure to pause the music at the bottom of the page again.
