WB journey pt 1

Well right now we are in Roanoke VA ! YAY , That must closer to WB. So far it has been a very good drive. 19 hours, lots of fun, little sleep. Tiffany and mark took turns driving and both did an amazing job. 

We have watched Newsies, Flushed away, and Bee movie. Listened to lots of music read Natalie a few books. 
Yesterday morning we stopped at a Mcdonald's to get some breakfast at about 7:00. 
Daniel was very obliging to help entertain us after the long night by fainting while standing in line for food! he had scratched his wrist when he got out of the car and when he looked down and saw the blood... well , he just melted. Poor thing. But don't worry, he was very comforted, he got an orange juice of his very own and got to sit in moms lap for a while. 

We only have 3 1/2 hours left to drive today so we should be there soon ! :D :D :D 

Hopefully I wil be able to get lots more posts in over the week, but you can allso follow our trip on twitter. My name is Amethyst180 or you can follow Mr. Hebert , Bearmark .

Something cute I was glad to get rid of.

The past 2 months or so we have found a few field mice in the house. We have *never* had mice in the house before so this was kinda a shock. Our cats have finally stepped up to the plate and started hunting them. Collin saw one of our cats with something pinned in the corner of his room. He went over to see what it was and it was a little mouse! Instead of letting the cat eat him he decided to let the mouse live and carried him out side to our creek a good distance from the house so he can't get back. I thought he was adorable and took a few pictures to share. :)

Texas Sunsets

We have had some amazing sunsets recently and I thought I would share some of the pictures I took.







My favorite :) below






Women Drivers

A friend posted this to FB and I thought it was just too funny not to share.
I would however like to put out the disclaimer that I don't think bad driving is particular to just women. I have seen really bad male and female drivers. ;)
Enjoy!

Squidoo ? What's that ?

Well what is it ? Honestly I am at a loss. I think it's like Wikipedia. No, it's like a blog. No, it's a way to earn revenue from adds. After reading up on it I *think* it's all the above !

I am interested in Internet marketing and a few people I follow have mentioned Squidoo a few times and said how you MUST have one. I haven't come to that conclusion yet, but it does sound like a neat idea.

From what I understand (please someone correct me if I am wrong, I just found out about this an hour ago. ) you write a page about any subject.They call these pages "lens" because everyone will see things differently. Your page can be a how-to or something factual. You think up a catchy name and tag it. You try and generate as much traffic as you can. You also have adds on the side. These adds earn you, Squidoo and certain charity's revenue.

Sounds neat huh ? I am going to give it a try and then we will see. ;)
