Fun in the sun and snow...

I've been reading the many posts on Facebook that express each individuals gratitude during this Thanksgiving season...and it's been interesting. I kinda felt bad that I didn't participate in the 30 days of giving thanks (or whatever it was called), but I haven't been in the posting...writing kind of mood...I've been in the "let's get together in person" kind of mood-which in turn left me too tired to write! Last Saturday Sam and I went to Wrightwood,CA...about an hour and a half east of L.A. for a little zip lining-the video says it all...

We met up with some friends-then hit the trail. It was amazing. The town itself is so far from what you'd think of when you think "Hollywood" that it doesn't seem possible that it could only be a hop skip and a jump from the city. It looked like a little Colorado mountain town...but no...it is definitely SoCal!
The craziest part about the trip wasn't dangling in mid air on a zip line but the thought of being on the beach just 2 days prior playing volleyball after a huge Thanksgiving potluck!

The stark difference of sunning near the ocean then freezing my booty off in the mountains is a true wonder. You know they say SoCal is the only place that you can go snow skiing and surfing in the same day...and now I know that's true. 
So...here's what I'm thankful for this year...
A great group of friends that are my family away from family...a wonderful city in which to live and a loving husband that didn't leave me to fend for myself when I fell on the ice in Wrightwood (you'd think an Ohio girl would know better)!

Our New Bedtime Bunny Tales Icon...You have to see this!

Not much to say today...but Sam just re-worked the Icon for Bedtime Bunny Tales...is this not darling?

Thanksgiving is close...and Christmas is right around the corner.

Funny how sometimes you have so much to say, while other times you are all out of words!

At the moment I'm listening to Christmas Music and wondering if I'm just wrong? How could it be wrong when it feels so right?? ha!

Today was a weird SoCal day...foggy, no, not smoggy, foggy. I should have taken a pic...darn, I've been lazy lately...not taking any photos. Anyway...can you believe how the time has flown by...it's almost Thanksgiving for Heaven's sake! Speaking of time flying, we are still working on Bedtime Bunny Tales. I think I told all of you that we hired a marketing company and they wanted some changes...then Apple rejected our free version...so we're trying to get it up and running! Can we run into any more problems!?!? Ughghgh!!! Sam has been pulling his hair out...trying to work with some new programmers (they're better than the first set of programmers but it's still programming!)! Regardless...everything will be ready before Christmas-I promise!

Did someone mention Christmas twice already? Yep, I did and I think if you haven't "liked" us on Facebook  this would be the time to do it. We are still giving away an iPad...and as soon as BTBT's hits the iTunes Store we'll begin the contest!! So, "like" us so you can get all the info you need in order to keep from buying your pesky toddler a tablet!

Why Penn State Officials Didn't Call the Police | Yahoo!

I haven't posted in awhile...

I don't know what to say. I've been battling it out on Facebook for the last few days concerning the Tragic Penn State Scandal. I can't talk much more about it. I'm done talking and I'm still reeling from some of the comments I've heard and that stupid riot at the University. I'm going to re-post my status up date from this morning...then I'm going to move on...but first...you've got to read this article...

Why Penn State Officials Didn't Call the Police | Yahoo!

The Penn State tragedy is nothing less than disgusting but this does give us a chance to find out who and what people value and then discuss. I was thinking...Paterno stood side by side with the pervert...knowing for years that he was not only raping little boys but he had set up a foundation for kids living in dire circumstances. The man was cunning and knew that if he preyed upon those who didn't have a parental voice that he would be safe, safe from a mom or dad's suspicion, safe to manipulate, abuse and take the innocence from the innocent.

Would you turn in a co-worker if you knew he was doing such a thing? Even if it cost you your job? How much is an innocent life worth? Do you have courage...and if not...how do you find it?

Let us all forget football, the legacy...blah,blah, blah and focus on the young men whose innocence was taken at such a young age. Find the courage...even if it kills you.
