Traffic Light Humor

I love laughing hysterically in a car by yourself!  I tried really hard to not look like a stalker as I snapped the picutre, but I really wanted to show it to Ryan.  Hope you had a happy Monday!!!

The stache

As you can tell from the previous post, Ryan went on a few hunting trips during the month of January.  During this time he seemed to have forgotten how to shave.  I don't know if he was just going for the rugged look, or if he thought it helped with the camouflage. He did finally shave after hunting season was over. I always enjoy the fun we have when he shaves his beard. Here are a few pics from the different "looks" of Ryan. 
Ryan decided to wear the mustache to work.  This time he seemed to be trying to fit in with the surroundings in Bessemer.

Free Gift Cards

I don't know about you but I love Google. Whenever I do any searching online I always go to Google.  I recently learned about a new search engine that gives you money for searching online.  Swagbucks is an online search engine that rewards you for searching online.  I almost have enough for a Starbucks gift certificate!!!
It only takes about a minute to sign up.  There are no hidden fees, credit card numbers, or phone numbers requested.  After signing up, you are credited 3 points to your account.  Then download the toolbar and every day as you're searching online, you earn a few more points. After only 45 points earned, you can get a free Amazon gift card. Or at 50 points, you can get a Starbucks gift card. There are dozens of other prizes, too.

Now, you might be thinking, "What's the big deal if I only earn a $5 gift card every month?" Well, you're right, $5 isn't that exciting. It's something, but that's only the beginning. You see, your earnings will exponentially multiply when you refer others.

Do you know anyone else who searches online? Well then tell them about send them your referral link, and you'll not only instantly earn more points when they sign up, you'll also earn points for the searching they do online.

Tell lots of folks and you're well on your way to funding your entire Christmas budget with free gift cards from Swagbucks.  I don't know about you, but that sounds pretty sweet to me! So what are you waiting for? Go sign up here!

A little fun and a little work

Here are a few pics from my trip to the Florida Educational Technology Conference in Orlando.  I  had a fabulous trip and learned A LOT!!! I walked away very overwhelmed, yet excited.  My favorite part was being with the other technology specialist in the system. We don't get to see each other very often, but when we do, we have a blast!  Thanks ladies for a wonderful trip and for all the laughs!!

Davis Neely

I'm  a little late in posting these pictures, but I thought I would share our newest member of the family.  Our godson, Davis Neely, was born on December 30th.  He is just the cutest little guy.  Jennifer, his mom, and I have been friends since we were little.  Our mom's have been friends since Kindergarten so we are like sisters.  I stayed with their other son Noah the day Davis was born.  He was so excited about getting to meet his little brother.     Davis, Noah, and Jennifer are all doing great. 
We spent the past weekend with them at the farm in Blount Springs.  It was very very cold so we didn't get out much.  The guys braved the cold and hunted.  Jenn and I did get out and chase the cows in the four wheeler and we even had some snow flurries.  Maggie enjoyed playing chicken with the cows. She didn't really understand why they wouldn't chase her.  We had a wonderful relaxing weekend just hanging out.
