Lily's Championship
We went to go see Lily's softball game on Saturday. Their first game was at 9:00. If they won that, they played another at 1:00. They won. Woohoo! Go Lily!This is after the first game.

We also got to see some of Jack's soccer game and they pwned the other team (Jack's word).
Some of the team
So, if they won the 1:00 game, they played the undefeated team at 3:00. They won. And then went on to BEAT the seasons UNDEFEATED team! W00t underdogs!First Place!
Michele and her MVP
After 3 games in a row, she still has a smile.And btw....what a phenomenal softball player Lily is. Her pitching was spot on and she was a champ at first base! That must be why she was voted the MVP! That's right!"That was the most exciting ball game I've seen in a while," said Craig. I have to say I agree with him.
Blogging
So, I told a friend of mine and hubby's that I had started a blog. When I said that it's still coming along, he compared blogging to tending a garden...it takes a lot of work to get it to blossom. How funny, I had no idea how right he was! I think I've changed the layout, format, pictures, and words at least 10 times (I've only had my blog for about 5 days now).

My time with BA
So, here's a quick synopsis of my short time with Barratt:
First day, meet Ashley. 3rd day, Ashley has a baby and leaves me for a few months. I get Jen set up with Gmail chat. I get to talk to Kelly twice before she leaves (but fortunately I'm cool enough to go to dinner every month - Yay!!!). We have our Christmas party. Lots of people get layed off. Ashley comes back. Hilary gives me my new name badge and I lose it 5 minutes later. More people get let go. We have to clean models and water the plants now. More people get let go (including Hilary - good day for her, sad day for us) and I get "Not Technically" layed off. I find a new job. :D
Our name
Why is it when people ask me how I pronounce my last name I say "Byu-cha-lye" and they say "BOO-cha-lye"?
How Nikki got her name
The first time I held Nikki, she fell asleep with one eye open. It reminded me of a spy, very cautious - like she didn't quite trust me. Although I've never actually seen the show, I could only think of La Femme Nikkita - so Nikkita she became.
My mother-in-law is the best!
So, a couple of weeks ago hubby and I went out to dinner with my Mother-in-Law. I called her a Bitch and she called me a Whore. Good times. (I love you Jan!)
