Home from North Carolina
Well - we made it back. We had a great time and visited a lot of race shops! We met some really nice people, but also ran into a few not so nice. The hotel was not the best, but cheap and had a pool, so it served its purpose. I think all of the boys (all 4 of them) had a great time. We met Kevin Harvick at an autograph session at the Charlotte Nascar Speed Park. I also bought some scrapbooking stuff from the Scrap Shack in North Carolina. It is so cool especially since Dale Earnhardt Jr's sister is part owner of it. I am on the mailing list - how cool is that?? It was very cool, and I will try to add a couple pics shortly!

On our way to North Carolina
We leave tomorrow morning for North Carolina. We will be back next Friday. I will post when I get back to let you know how things went. I am very excited - we will be going to Nascar Speed Park, touring the race shops, and even to see a Kannapolis Intimidators game. Have a great week!

Updated Links - woohoo!!!
I am very excited! I was able to go into what I call the BACK END to update this site. I changed the title Links to My Favorite Links, and added several of my favorites. MOPS is an organization for mothers of preschoolers, there are links for Strayer University and for online Christian Courses. I also added ING Direct - a great online savings plan and Earth Foundation, which the boys' school uses for a fund raiser that helps to save the Rain Forest. As I learn more, I will continue to update, but for now all I can say is WOOOOO HOOOOO!!
Toby Keith Concert!
The boys and I went to see Toby Keith in concert last night at the Nissan Pavillion. We met up with Sandi, Jerry & Crystal. I also saw Christy and Dave there. Shooter Jennings and Leann Womack opened for him. He did an awesome show! We had a great time, although, I wish the kids that go, wouldn't use the concerts as a reason to get wasted and act like fools. I know concerts are more for adults, but my kids love Country music, and they have the right to be safe at a concert. There was a couple of really nice people sitting behind us, but there were also some very roudy, obnoxious people around as well! Anyway...the show was great. The 5 mile walk to the car, was ok, the hour and half wait to get out of the parking lot....so uncomfortable. All in all, it was a good time!

What I know about BLOGS
I have heard the word BLOG before while listening to the news....but have never done anything with it before. We discussed it at work the other day after I told a co-worker I needed to create one. Basically it seems that people can use it to keep in touch with family members....a cool idea...I absolutely love! I also understand that some people abuse it and have gotten in trouble for stuff that has been written. I don't plan on posting anybody's secrets. The main reason for this BLOG is for a class...but I have tremendously enjoyed playing around with this and am looking forward to learning how to change some stuff. Look for updates during the next 10 weeks as I learn more about this type of thing! I think I am going to like this E-Commerce class. Meanwhile...enjoy the pics of the boys. I would have put more...but you would have gotten bored since I have 175!! Thanks for visiting. Let me know if there is anything you would like me to add or how to create your own. It was so super easy to get this far! Have a great week and I will be talking to you!
The Beatley Family
My name is Bobbie Beatley. I live in Middletown, VA with my family. My husband, JC, my sons - James Jr., Randall, and Jeremy, and our cat - Grace! James and Randall are 8 year old twins and about to enter the 3rd grade. Jeremy is 2 years old and keeps us all on our toes. I have created this site for a class and also so everybody can see what is going on in our lives. I work full time in Sterling, VA. In my "spare time" I like to scrap book and am getting in to searching geneology records again.
