Summertime!




We have almost made it...just a couple more weeks of school and then it's Summertime! One of my favorite times of year. Not because of the weather, I can tell you that for sure. Living in Texas, especially Houston it gets hot and muggy quick. Last weekend we went to Cassidy's End of the Year School bash. They hold it at a really neat pool that has slide and lots of things to play with. Cassidy's teacher was there and was so excited. Cassidy has had a wonderful school year and I am so thankful for Mrs. Juneau!


Until Next Post!

Error message

So I come to you in this post frustrated as I was just told by a mean error message that I apparently exceeded my limit of pictures and memory on my Picasa account that I have linked to my blog! UGH!!!! Until I can figure this difficulty out, I guess you will have boring posts...but please don't leave me for good. I will be back up and running in a couple of days...I promise.

Now I am off to figure out what pictures I can purge and what is a meaningful memory!

Mother's Day 2011



Today was wonderful. I am such a lucky woman. I have a wonderful, amazing daughter, and a just as amazing husband. Here is a look at some of my Mother's Day. What did yours look like?

Happy Mother's Day to all of you moms out there!

My Sick Baby

So instead of being at work right now, I am at the house listening to Nick Jr. on t.v. Wanna know why? Well, you are on my blog, so I am going to tell you whether you do or not. My little baby is sick. Of course my poor baby can't get an easy sickness. My poor baby has STREP THROAT!!! YIKES! Wish us luck as we try to go through getting her better without getting one of us sick. Luckily our household is small, so if we do all get sick, it it usually all done pretty quick. After one does of meds you would not think she had a fever of 101 in the doctor's office. She has such a high tolerance for pain. (Just like her momma). Anyway, she came home and told me that she was not tired, and was not going to take a nap and then proceeded to crash for about an hour and a half. YAY! Mommy got a break too.

Well, so much for my whinning, I guess I should get back to my child who is sick but surely not acting that way (as she is sitting in the overstuffed chair watching cartoons, eating a snack of coco puffs!) I know, but she is sick, she needs something to make her smile!



**Oh, before I go, I had to share this with you.

Earlier before the above mentioned coco puffs, Cas told me she wanted a little snack. She said, "I've been watching t.v. all day and playing with Bella all day. That's my story." Not sure now that I have written it again why I thought it was so funny the first time, but she has such a funny personality.

Well, I would say that next time I post I hope to have better news, but we are on ten days of antibiotics, so it should be intersting. Wish me luck!

Until next post!

Hobbies (not to be mistaken with Hobbits)

Do you have any hobbies? Do you enjoy something so much that you could quite your everyday job, and do your hobby to make a living? Do you often dream about your hobby? Am I crazy for doing all of the above. If yes, then I never do that. (Wink). My hobby is photography. I am sure I have talked about that before and I am sure that you have figured that out already. I actually started an external company (remember I do have a full time job for an energy company). My photography company is called 'Noelle Photography by Shelley Black'. Yep that's me. Here is my website for proof...www.noellephoto.com , when you go on the website, you can see some of the photo shoots I have done in the past. If you click on the proofs page, you will see what I have up. Or you can go to any of the sections (family, maternity, baby, children, seniors). Anyway, I have been thinking a lot about adding a little something to my blog with some of the nature and architectural pictures I have taken. What do you think? I have thought about adding a little something with those pictures to my blog. I have so many pictures it is not even funny. My honey had to buy an external hard drive for our computer. All for me. Crazy. I never knew I would find something to be so passionate about. Well, I will work on getting a button and putting up some pictures for Noelle Photography. If you want to look, you will know where to find them.
***Of course I was going to try to have a post without pictures, but since I was talking about them I thought I would share one of my favorites from 2010 of Cassidy. It was in Hilton Head, South Carolina.




Thanks for listening.
Until next post!
