A WHOLE LOT OF NOT MUCH.....................................................



I have been smack in the middle of a serious bloggers rut! I try to think of something exciting to post about, but my mind goes blank. I feel that I am just going through the motions of life and I am trying to stay afloat. I am in no way saying that my life is bad at all. It is just seriously in chaotic mode and I dont see it slowing down anytime too soon.

It doesnt help that I am a single mom during most of the week. I am doing it all and all by myself. I know, go call the Wambulance, because I am totally whining. People out there have it MUCH worse then I do, but this is starting to bite the big one!! Our house still hasnt sold. Not a huge shocker with the economy the way it is. I am ok in the fact that it is keeping me here in California longer, but it is getting old and Chris is tired of the traveling. Oh well...

I was on one of my many trips to the Sports Park today picking up kids from football practice and my sweet little Bowen asked me what was for dinner. I told him the meager choices and he asked me when we were going to have REAL food for dinner. WHAT??? He wanted to know why I dont cook anymore..... Gee, let me ponder over that one........ Good thing he is cute. :)

Here is a collage of some of the events from the past week or so. It is pictures from our Trunk or Treat last weekend and from the Pack Meeting last night. Landon received his Arrow of Light. So awesome. Way to go Landon!!

Well I am off to try and get my kids to bed. I have been going to bed WAy too late and I need to stop. Waking up at 5:45 to get Dallin off to Seminary is not that pleasant considering I had just went to bed 5 hours earlier. Dummy! Goodnight!

How do you spend your Friday Night Date night?????


Last night we had the chance to go and be street walkers for a day. It was actually alot of fun. There were about 35 of us and we got alot of support. Of course there was your occasional ice throwing, bird flipping and yelling, but all in all a good experience. We are all entitled to our opinions and I hope that I dont offend any of my blog buds out there. That is why we live in this great country, to have the ability to stand up for what we believe in.

Afterwards, we went to my favorite Indian Restaurant with Christine, Devin, Cheryl and Jim. Good times. Thanks Tristan for the yummy cookies and for letting me steal your photos off your blog! :)

I found this picture on somebodys blog and I had to share. I thought it was pretty comical----ENJOY!

Peace out!

I am out of here. I am heading to Utah for the weekend. I am so excited. I need this trip so bad! I am physically and mentally exhausted. I am in serious need of me time. I just hope that I come home to 6 kids still. Heehee. Lawson is into EVERYTHING! I kid you not. I cant explain just how into everything he is. Just in the past 2 minutes, I have gotten him off the counter, out of the garage and then I had to get him out of the bathtub where he just turned on the shower!!!! 2 minutes!!!! I just hope that Chris can keep his cool with him for the whole weekend. I am sure he will.

I am going to hang with my sister Julie and nieces and my parents. They are driving up to Provo today for my nieces bball games. I am just excited to shop and eat! Party!!

Ok, I need to get packing. I will check back when I get home--that is- IF I come home....... hehe

The Haps...........



Since I am knee deep in a PMS episode and getting my butt spanked by the raging hormones of my Aunt Flo this month, I am going to just make this post short and sweet (hopefully) so I wont seem like such a Debby Downer. I have been so stressed and crabby lately. I feel like I am so crusty and mean to everyone. Sorry to those of you who have had to be around me lately..":0
So here are a few of the events and "happenings" in my neck of the woods.
















Me and my hot man before our Anniversary date.
I always tease him that he looks like he is posing for a hostage photo.

















This little stinker who kicks my butt on a daily basis. He is
killing me, but I love him to peices.
















UUUGGG! I wont go into detail about this photo.
This was a "non-date" Homecoming Dance photo.
No he is not 16, and yes it is TOTALLY against our house rules
that you date before then. In my defense, there was a group of about 30 kids that all went
together. Does that work? We made it clear to this sweet little Amazon in the back of
this photo that it WILL NOT happen again until he is 16!!!!!
You would die if I were to show you what all of the girls were wearing!!!!!!!



GNO for Christine and Maressas Bday.
So much fun. We went to Tomatinas (grub)
and then some of us true party animals
went and saw Eagle Eye afterwards
Great time.


ok, I am going to take me some Advil for my
raging headache. Thanks Aunt Flo for another great
month! ;0

DISTURBING DIAGNOSIS********


Today I went to my hairdressers for my "usual". After I sat down in her chair for our normal consult of what I wanted done. I was srprised by an intervention of sorts. She told me that I was in need of more then a trim. That my hair was getting too long??? What??? I told her that I didnt think it was THAT long. Now granted it is just past the middle of my back, but it doesnt feel that long to me. She told me that she thinks I have "longerexia" and that I needed help. She told me that my hair was weighing me down. Whatev! I was dying. I thought that was the funniest thing I had ever heard.

Long story short, I succumbed to the peer pressure and she did cut. It does look better. It is still plenty long, but just looks a little more healthy and fresh. Still I am mourning the loss of my precious dead ends.....

I am writing my story in hopes that I can help anyone out there that is suffering from the same illness as I. If I can help at least one person out there I will be happy. So for all you "Longerexia" sufferers out there. There is help!!!!
