26th Annual Louie Run

The Louie Run celebrates 26yrs this year!!

Sunday, May 3rd at the Lake County Fairgrounds featuring

The Fabulous Thunderbirds! Check out their site !

And as always the awesome Burnt River Band will be there too!!

If your in the area stop out, you all know I will be there. I am actually headed there in a minute to help get stuff ready and TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY we have all worked so hard on!!

Oh and just a side note, The Burnt River Band has been with the Louie Run for the whole 26 yrs! And they also play at Louie's old bar every year on the Friday of the weekend of the run!!

Only $10 and you get a day of fun, great food, and get to help a good cause!!
Seeing the bands are included in the $10!!
And see THOUSANDS of bikes!!!
Also Louie Run is non profit that means after they pay for the run itself EVERYTHING ELSE goes to different charities!!!

::Momma Brag Moment::

Ok sooo...I must take a moment to brag on my kiddos!!
They are growing into such cool dudes!
Both boys GOT STRAIGHT A'S!!! WOOHOOO Two kids with 4.0 gpa.
HOW THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN? LOL

I tell ya, They are smart buggers..and boy do they come up with the funniest shit too..lol

Oh and my 12 yr old Josh, was just in the paper, again, for another Principals award!!
Both boys have been in their a few times..I will have to scan the photos for you guys!

And one of my most proudest Momma moments, Josh, all on his own too, has decided to take on the challenge of Spanish 1 for HS credit next year in 8th grade!!!
The kids going into 8th grade next year get the option of this..The requirements are that you must have a 3.0 GPA and an A in Spanish right now..Which Josh has both!!

He filled out the application all by himself and wrote some great paragraphs about why he would be good for this class and how he will achieve to do well in it.

YAAY!! GO JOSH!! We are all SOOOOOOO PROUD OF YOU BUDDY!!!

Thanks so much for letting me take a moment to brag on my boys!!!

Chris Brown removes himself from KCA nominations...

TMZ.COM SAYS.........................

Chris Brown is officially letting Nickelodeon off the hook, and taking himself off the list of nominees at the upcoming Kids' Choice Awards.

In a statement, his rep says:
"Chris very much appreciates the support of his fans and the honor they have paid him in the way of nominations for Favorite Male Singer and Favorite Song.Unfortunately, the controversy surrounding the incident last month has shifted the focus from the music to whether he should be allowed to be among those nominated. While Chris would like to speak to his fans directly about this and other issues, pending legal proceedings preclude his doing so at this time. Once the matter before him has been resolved, he intends to do so."

***********
Good to see him doing the right thing for once!!

Please Sign This Petition!!

Please sign THIS petition to have Chris Brown removed from the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards!!

As a parent I feel I must do my part to show my children right from wrong and that hitting women, or anyone, is not right and if you do there should be consequences!

As someone that survived domestic violence, I feel I should stand up for women everywhere that are to afraid to do it themselves!!

So please help me by signing THIS petition!!

Thanks so much!
