Show Me Your Deathday

I received my book yesterday and as Shaun wanted pictures of our Deathday here you are: Alyssa sleeping next to her copy. I could not resist the combination.
Release date is today so go and get your copy at your local book store.

A new widget...aka Book Release

First let me say again that I am sorry I have been absent this work, family and School combo is kicking me really hard right  now so time for me is limited but I did want to do a post for a friend of mine.

I have never known anyone famous or a "writter" for that matter but on June 15, 2010 I can mark that off my list of People to know.  On June 15 Deathday Letter will be released and that means that Shaun Hutchinson will have published his book and I am so excited.  You can head over to his blog Deathday Letter and check it out.  Also if you want he is having a contest or 2 to win a copy and I have also listed it on the side bar to buy from Amazon. 

I have known Shaun a long time, but kinda lost touch for awhile but I am so happy for him and I know he has worked very hard on this project and I am sure he is working on many more to come.
Congrats Shaun just waiting on my copy  :)

Sorry its been so long.

I know all  my readers have been neglected and I am sorry for that I am trying to keep up with all that is going on.  Between kids home and school I am kinda overwhelmed.  I am trying and I will try harder for atleast a post every other day so we will see. 
We had a busy weekend past with my mom's birthday and a Graduation Party those were fun and the kids were all so happy to be out and going all around. 
I just wanted to let everyone one  know that we are doing great just busy.  School is coming to a close and then it is going to be 1 more at home and it will be crazy between work and school and trying to occupy them.  We will manage somehow.

Ciera came home from school today and brought her belt for Saftey Patrol. We are so happy for her it is such an accomplishment for her. So come next year we are in 5th grade and she will be making a trip to Washington DC all by her self with her classmates. She is so excited all she needs to do is keep up the good work!
