1 - 2 inches of snow in Colorado Springs?

Consider this my vote for a new weatherman, LOL
Went to bed last night with a warning of “1, or maybe 2 inches of snow from small showers” and awoke to find this scene at 10 AM! the challenges of eBaying in the Springs!

My current project


Sorry I’ve been delayed with working here – this is my garage – stuffed to the top with inventory that needs to be listed onto eBay for the Christmas sellling season! Yikes!

We Lost – but they are winners to me

I love watching my sons play football and it’s been cool watching Thomas help out assistant coaching this year with Kirk’s team. Now I want only to watch my son Ken and DIL Jamey coach a game and I’ll be a happy mommy.  This was a bad game for our team – we didn’t play well, the refs didn’t ref well and we got beat very badly. This was the after the game ‘pep talk’ from Tom to Kirk.

eBay Live

That’s me in the purple with my friend Marriane from AZ and the CEO of eBay John Donohoe and the VP Lorrie Norrington – all wearing hats and T-shirts I designed :)


April Trying to eat a Sandwich


Eating here is always an adventure and you will usually have some adoring fans . . . . 

Around the Dinner Table


Not the best photo but April tried to get us all in. Sitting around the table eating hamburgers, Pasta salad and sweet Tea. 

Jonathan’s 18th Birthday

Well today is Jonathan’s 18th birthday – pretty amazing. I looked all over my hard drive and don’t have any recent photos so that’s pretty sad and I need to fix that. . . . but for now, here is Pedro, Jon’s lizard. Happy Birthday Sweetheart.

Thomas and Sammi

We were sad that Thomas chose not to return to Faulkner this year but it has been nice having him around the house – Sammi was happy to see him too :)

Football Saturday!


Considering that our offense didn’t take the field for the first SEVEN minutes – we did good to win 54 – 28!

the top photo is Kirk playing defense which he loves to do – I believe this is where Tyler Thorne got one of his interceptions. Tyler had a 300+ yard game and was fantastic on both sides of the ball.

Second photo is Kirk pitching the ball (probably to either Tyler Thorne or Joey Moore!)
