Kingdom Bound here we come!

DANGIT! Oh I hate when I do that! I tried to select all my text and REMOVED my entire post! GRRR! Oh I hate it! We are going to be coming and going for the next few days to Kingdom Bound. It's a 4 day Christian Music Festival held every year at Darien Lake. I'm hoping to see Big Daddy Weave, Skillet and Newsboys. As we speak, Rebecca St. James is performing in Binghamton today - but I'm sad that she's not coming to KB this year.

In the meantime what the heck has been going on the last couple days? Well... lets see. Friday was REDICULOUS trying to get out of work. I mean crazy nuts. There are so many teeny details to share that I will drive myself crazy just thinking about what the heck Friday looked like sooo I'm not even going to bother re-typing it however lets just say that I should have been on the river at 6pm where my friends graciously invited me on the boat, and I didn't get there till almost 9!?!!!! They were sooo sweet to come back to the marina and get me but still!

Saturday I worked from 9-3pm. We have gotten funding to run a Digital Camera Class for 60 inner city kids. It's really just an intro to using cameras and then they go on field trips to take pictures. Then next saturday we will be teaching them to download their pics to the computer to then upload to Photobucket and finally to make a Blogger account that they will share all their favourite pics. Once the project is finalized - I'll share the blog with you all to see :) Please check it out as it'll just tickle them pink that they have visitors from all over viewing it!

What else? When I got home Tyler and I kicked butt and cleaned the downstairs of the house. It needed it. I still have to dust the furniture in the living room but other wise it looks really good and I'm feeling much better about being mostly gone this week without having to worry about my stank nasty dirty house! After cleaning Mary Beth called and asked if I did want to go on the boat again, so I took Malik out and oh my he actually went swimming in the lake, AND he went out on the tube! I am sooo proud of him for getting out of his control freak shell and so grateful to Brad for being so patient with him and helping him have so much fun!

Today we had church and afterwards ran over to Penney's for their 'doorbuster' sale which we missed because I ran into Bernie and Rhonda and got to see their precious new baby girl Faith. She's such a doll. So teeny! I ended up spending about $200 on Tyler for school, but he got several shirts, 4 pair of Jeans and 2 sweatshirts. So it was a good deal. I was thrilled when I saw that 2 pair of jeans he had picked out were marked down to $15.99 but then even MORE thrilled when I saw that they rang up as $8.99! YEAH! Now that's a good deal right? I Know! So that really helped take the sting out. Oh yeah I also got him another dress shirt (royal purple) and 2 purple ties. So really for $200 we made out like a bandit. All he needs are underthings and shoes and he is done.
Here are some pics from yesterday - I'm sure I'll have tons to post over the next few days :)
