FREX - Making Memories

The smell of corn dogs, french fries and cotton candy is burning into your nose.  Screaming kids, cheesy music, and carnies yelling!

We took the kids to our location exhibition, the FREX.  So many memories are made here every September, and we want to keep those going.

Our oldest son loved the fast cars.....7 trips on the same ride is love.  We ate greasy food, bet on horses, went on rides and enjoyed all the craziness.

Those exhibitions are old fashioned but fabulous.  I fear that all those great memories are going to be forgotten with all of this technology. 

Are we going to miss out on these memories because we are too connected to electronics?  I obviously love the computer as much as the next person, however I feel that some people take them way to seriously.  Facebook, tweeting, texting and all the rest.  Some people forget how to communicate with people in front of them or activities that are outside, away from the technologies and that their glory.

This is a post from September that life interrupted.  The thought continues though.

Writing?

I love the thought of writing.  I also think I have these clever funny things to say and share but when push comes to shove I don't seem to have it.

This is my first post of 2011 and it's October 26th.  Cleary life has taken over!

I want to be as creative as I think I am in my head but there are so many things going on.  Sometimes I don't even know where to start.

So today, I start here.

I hope to be this wonderful mother who does it all, doesn't every mother want that.  I am in the process of trying to take over a family business, I have two beautiful boys, a wonderful husband but no time for anything!  Monday comes and then all of the sudden it's Sunday night again.  Where does everyone find the time to do those things you think are important, I just can't seem to get there.

Perhaps today isn't the day my creative juices flow but perhaps today is the day to turn on the press and see what happens.

Hopefully I will write again tomorrow or maybe next week but the goal is to write every week!
