I just love these pumpkins, I wish you could see them. They are very prim & very Grubby and are just wonderful. Go to my ebay listings and take a look!! They are big and weighted very heavy so they won't fall over very easily. They are duck's cloth with stars stenciled on them and then sanded primed and baked at least twice. They are great, I will hate to give them up!! Now I need to get busy on more goodies!! Have a great weekend and be Safe!!!
Blessings, Joleen

Happy Birthday Brandon!!! 9 years old today!!!
My boy turned 9 today!! Makes me feel really old, I guess I am though!!! lol It was like Christmas for him, he could hardly sleep and was up very early today. So we opened one present before breakfast and then by 9am he could hardly stand it so we opened the rest. He got a Nintendo DS and a new movie, so he is a happy camper today!!!
He starts school tomorrow so he is taking advantage of his last day of freedom!!

"I Believe"
A Birth Certificate shows that we were born,
A Death Certificate shows that we died,
Pictures show that we lived!
Have a seat . . . Relax . . . And read this slowly.
I Believe...
That just because two people argue,
it doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
it doesn't mean they do love each other.
I Believe...
That we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.
I Believe...
That no matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt you every once in a while
and you must forgive them for that.
I Believe...
That true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.
I Believe...
That you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.
I Believe...
That it's taking me a long time
to become the person I want to be.
I Believe...
That you should always leave loved ones with loving words.
It may be the last time you see them.
I Believe...
That you can keep going
long after you think you can't.
I Believe...
That we are responsible for what we do,
no matter how we feel.
I Believe...
That either you control your attitude
or it controls you.
I Believe...
That heroes are the people
who do what has to be done
when it needs to be done,

I Believe...
That my best friend and I,
can do anything,
or nothing
and have the best time.
I Believe...
That sometimes the people
you expect to kick you when you're down,
will be the ones to help you get back up.
I Believe...
That sometimes when I'm angry
I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me
the right to be cruel.
I Believe...
That maturity has more to do
with what types of experiences you've had
and what you've learned from them
and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.
I Believe...
That it isn't always enough,
to be forgiven by others.
sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
I Believe...
That no matter how bad your heart is broken
the world doesn't stop for your grief.
I Believe...
That our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,
but, we are responsible for who we become.
I Believe...
That you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret.
It could change your life Forever.
I Believe...
Two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.
I Believe...
That your life can be changed in a matter of hours
by people who don't even know you.
I Believe...
That even when you think you have no more to give,
when a friend cries out to you
- you will find the strength to help.
I Believe...
That credentials on the wall
do not make you a decent human being.
I Believe...
That the people you care about most in life
are taken from you too soon.
I Believe...
That you should send this
to all of the people that you believe in,
I just did.
'The happiest of people
don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the most of everything.'
Thanks to my friend Mary for sending this to me!! I needed it!!!
And all my sweet prim sisters for all their love and prayers while Ashley was in the hospital, I am truly blessed!!!
