GOOD MOTHER MOMENT............................................................................................



I just wanted to share with you one more reason why I deserve the Mother of the Year Award.

Chris and I took seperate cars to church today, but we left at the same time. We were on our merry way and me being the speed racer that I am zoomed up to Chris and noticed that he only had 4 kids with him. I did a quick scan through my car and I only had 1 kid in my car. I came to the quick realization that I had left ..........................................................

This sweet little face at home-----------------AGAIN! Yes, this would be the second time that he has been forgotten. So bring it on..... you know I deserve it!!!!! :)

PS Judson on the right was left, not the baby. I think that if I were to leave the baby, I would just go ahead and have myself committed to the loonyfarm!

LIQUID GOLD BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You cant really tell from this cruddy picture, but this is 48 ounces aka 6 cups of Homemade Hot Fudge. MMMMMM! So dang good. Tonight is the final Road Show Performance for our Stake and the kids are having a party afterwards to celebrate.
I offered to make my Hot Fudge Sauce to go over brownies and ice cream. So good. I was licking the pan afterwards and I think I am officially in a sugar induced coma! I am getting my sugar fix in this weekend before the big "D" day Monday. UUUUGGGGGG!
I am ready to shed a few pounds. My jeans are starting to fold over when I bend over. Do you know what I am talking about? I am sure all of you skinny minis out there dont. Oh well!!

It has been a crazy week. I am pooped!! I feel like I have been on taxi driver overload. "take me here" "I need be here at this time". That is my pet peeve. I hate to be overscheduled. I love to live life at a even pace. I guess it is only going to get worse as these kiddies get older.

My back is feeling a little better. I have been to a Chiropractor a couple of times. I am not sure if he is helping, but at least when I go, I dont have any kids hanging on me and I am getting massaged and relaxation for an hour. I only feel like a whiner after I have been sitting for awhile and it is time to get up. I feel like I am 90 years old!!! It sure has helped me appreciate my health a little more. Speaking of health. I got a call this week from our life insurance company wanting to schedule me a physical appt. I was like "what the"???
I called Chris to ask him what was up and he said he was upping my amount. Should I be scared? I told him that usually when that happens, the wife ends up dead or missing!!!! Too funny. I am sure he just wants to make sure he has enough money if I die to hire a HOT Swedish nanny. I think I am going to put in my Will that he can only hire a yucky, old lady with moles to help him. I am bad, I know.

Well enough babbling. I hear my sweet little Dennis the Menace waking up from his nap. I better button down the hatches before I get him out. :)


Speaking of hatches..........What did everyone think of Lost last night????????? I swear that the writers are all on some crazy drugs when they are writing the story lines -----Whacky!

I AM BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! I cant believe tht it has been this long since I have blogged. I have been sooooo out of the loop this past week. My mom, sister and niece have been here and I also had a freaky injury. So freaky. I am not sure how it happened, but I tweaked my back out on the day they came! Talk about a bummer. They probably think I staged the whole things so they would have to be my slaves while they were here.
It all started last Thursday. All was honkey dorey during the day with me cleaning and getting ready for them to come. I got uin my car, headed to the airport to pick them up-all still fine. I get out of my car-still fine and then I go to help with their luggage and KABLAMMMM! My back decided to take a vacation and not let me know. I hadnt even lifted anything, I had just bent down slightly and I couldny go any farther, I could barely walk back to the car to drive home. So weird. I have NEVER had any kind of injury before. I have been in pain for the past 5 days The first few days I could hardly move. I felt like I wanted to just crawl in a whole and die pretty much. I felt so bad for my company. Each day it has gradually gotten better. Today I am getting around good, it just really hurts when I bend and pick up things or turn. BITES!!!!!

Ok, I wont bore you any more with my old lady body stories anymore. We did have a good time together. We shopped and ate and listened to Two 4 year olds fight and bicker alot, but we had fun. I managed to get around. I was hopped up on my moms Celebrex and Motrin for most of the time and tried to keep up with them. Here are some pictures of the past week or so. They are of Landons Bday and my moms Bday, Chuck E Cheese, Tomatinas (Yum) and Hana Japan (yum) . My big rump even managed to get in a few pictures-----Diet day is Monday. I am going to start up the Adkins diet. Oh how I am dreading it, but just trying to keep my yapper shut and not eat is not working, so drastic measures will have to be done :( Wish me luck and I hope I dont go postal that day. I might need some words of encouragment to keep me sane. LOL I am excited to catch up on blogs. It has been hard to sit down for long periods of time so now that I am feeling better, I am sure I have alot to catch up. I am sure someone is knocked up or something exciting has happened. Have a great day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LANDON!!!!!!!!!!

Today is my sweet Landons 10th birthday. Can I just tell you how awesome this kid is? I am so lucky to be his mom. Landon is such a great helper. I can ask him to do anything and he will go above and beyond what was asked AND without busting my chops about it to. He is a sweet brother, great student and a good friend.

I was teasing him a little tonight telling him about when he was born. I told him that he needed to be extra nice to his mom since he came zooming into this world so fast, I didnt get to have any of my "happy drugs", otherwise known as my best friend the epidural. I had Landon about a half hour after I got to the hospital. I was begging for an epidural right up until the last minute, but no go. He was even my biggest baby at 9 pounds!!! Can you say ouch?????!!! He was well worth the pain. I feel so blessed to be his mom and to have such sweet boys.

Happy birthday Lan-Man!!

So today I have been running around like a raging lunatic. My sister Julie and my mom are coming into town tomorrow and I have been cleaning this sty. On top of all of the cleaning, I have been making dinner, hauling kids here and there and making 36 jumbo M&M cookies for Landon to take to his class for his Bday. Chris pretty much went straight from work to YMs so it has been one looooooonnnnnnnggggggg day. I am feeling mighty haggard. Well I better get to bed. I will keep you posted on all of the partying that will be going on this weekend while they are here! LOL

"CULINARY CORNER"

So, since I am tired of seeing my big butt and hooker heels everytime I get on the computer, I decided to post something new. Not a whole lot has gone on this week. It has been the same ole same ole around here so I am going to post a recipe instead of my weekly play by play.

This recipe was served to us several years ago at a RS dinner. I loved it and have been making it for my family ever since. They love it!

Chicken and White Sauce

3-4 chicken breasts. (I use breast tenders)
1 jar of Classico Alfredo Sauce
1 package of sliced fresh mushrooms
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
3/4 cup of sour cream
2/3 cup of milk ( I put it into the jar of Alfredo and shake it around to get all of the sauce out. I know clever)
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp basil


Mix all but mushrooms and chicken together until well blended. Add mushrooms and then pour over chicken. Bake at 350 until bubbly and chicken is done. It all really depends on what type of chicken you use. We serve it over rice.


BAM! There you go. Easy and yummy. I hope you like it as much as we do. There is a reason why I suffer from "Dunlop Syndrome" Where your belly dun lops over your jeans. I enjoy the cream sauces baby!

I am finally posting pictures of my 4 inch hooker heels and my "good butt" jeans. I wouldnt go as far as saying that they make my butt look good, but they do help it look a little more perky. Yeah for spandex!!!!

I cant believe I am posting pictures of 2 of my worst body parts. I have a saggy hiney and Fred Flinstone toes. Good thing they are both covered up.

On a happier note I am happy to report that Lawson is finally on the mend. He is feeling better and I dont have to whip out the mop so much to wipe up all of his snot. EEEEWWWW! It is seriously so gross. Well I am off to bed. I am such a night owl. I am going to pay the price for my bad habit someday I know it. Good night...................

GOOD WEEKEND??????!?!!!!!!!!!???????



Well at least it started out that way. Friday was a fun day. It was Lucas' 4th bday. Hayden and Lucas are best buds and one day apart. We went bowling and to Chuck E Cheeses to celebrate. You know how much I love Chucks!! Friday night we had a GNO. It was our friend Tiffanys bday. She is the big 4o!!! I know--old:) I am glad I am not even NEAR that yet!! LOL We went to out to eat and some of us went to the movies afterward. It was alot of fun and very nice to get out and socialize with the girls.



Saturday went to hell in a handbasket and mighty fast. I was excited to kick back this weekend and enjoy conference, but instead, I pretty much stayed in my pjs and held a sick little man all weekend. No, not Chris! Lawson had a fever all weekend. Figures, isnt that the way it always goes? Fine all week and them BAM! out of nowhere comes the plague! So like I said, I rocked and held him ALLLLL weekend long. I have snot and drool all over my clothes to prove it!

He has been hopped up on Tylenol and medicated with LOVE. AAAWWWW, how sappy. It wasnt too bad actually. I rather enjoyed cuddling with what is probably my last baby. (sniff, sniff).



Sunday, again much of the same. We all just hung out and watched conference and enjoyed each others company. Did I really just say that? I wouldnt go that far. There were times, when I wish I could just send them all outside to roam the neighborhood to get out of my hair. :) Chris made some yummy cinnamon rolls and homemade pizza. It was so dang good. Conference weekend is very fattening at our house.



I did enjoy what I could hear from the speakers. There was a moment when the kids were not being very reverent and I had to leave the room to get something. I remember thinking to myself "why am I even trying to watch it, I cant even hear anything they are saying" I then went back into the room, just as Brother Ballard was speaking. Did you just LOVE his talk?? It was wonderful. I just soaked in everything he was saying and my kids were actually listening at that point also. I cant wait for the Ensign to come out next month so I can read it.



Today I took Lawson to the Drs and just as I suspected--Double ear infection. He is now on antibiotics and hopefully going to be his usual self again soon. Well I am off to have some of our after FHE treat. It is a chocolate malt. Oh, my gosh, I actually typed chocolate male instead of malt. HEE HEE good thing I caught that. I think I smell a diet in the near future. Ihope everyone has a great night!

I know, long, boring and no pictures. Sorry.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAYDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Today is my sweet Haydens Birthday. He is 4 years old, I cant believe it. He is such a funny kid and so full of personality. He is always cracking us up. He hasnt always been that way though.
Many times has that kid been in the drivers seat of driving me crazy!! He has been my budding artist on most of my walls, tables and anything else he can get his hands on. His weapon of choice is never anything washable either. It is always Sharpies and crap like that. He could untie, unscrew, and undo anything, at such an early age too. I hate to admit this, but there were so many days when I dreaded getting up each morning. It felt like Groundhogs Day everyday!! All I seemed to do is follow him around from one mess to another!! UUUGGG! Thank goodness he has mostly outgrown that phase, and I now have Lawson who is taking over that job! That will be another therapy session for later !!:0





Here are 4 things about Hayden:

1. He has almost every line of the Cars movie memorized. He has seen that dang movie over and over again, but he loves to re-enact it every day! He lines up his cars on the table bench and acts out the first part of the movie. Maybe he is a future Matt Damen.

2. He LOVES LOVES LOVES to pray! He wants to pray all the time and never give anyone else a turn. Sometimes the others dont care, but he needs to share the blessings dude!

3. Loves to go to " Depot Home" ( that is what he calls Home Depot) with Chris. He loves to go anywhere with dad. Mom is chop liver when he is around:)

4. Hayden loves his brothers. He follows them around everywhere and is always saying "good job" or "can I help you" . Very sweet.

I feel so blessed to be his mom, he brings so much love and spunk to this household. Happy Birthday Haymaker!

HELP!!!

I wasnt going to post today due to the fact that I am on my deathbed today. I woke up in the middle of the night feeling like a Mack truck had parked on my face! Not only parked on , but ran over, did a few doughnuts and peeled out on my face. I dont know what the problem is but the point is, I feel like crap!!!

I have had a challenging few days. I need to get it of my chest. My kids are driving me nuts with all of thier bickering. They have been so snippy with each other and so dang sassy. I have been smothered by a baby with a nose, face and eyes full of boogars. He is so clingy and ornrey. Good thing these days are few and far between, but last night I was ready to run out of the house and do some SERIOUS retail therapy. :) I have not felt like doing any cleaning, cooking or anything domestic either. I am in a funk for sure.

Well, I know this was a dorky post, but I feel a ton better getting it off my chest. I am sure that my funk will pass. It seems like they come every few months. Is anyone else feel like this at times? I am sure you do. I would love some good advice. I know, I have not had a Diet Coke today. Maybe that is it!!! Have a great night!

I'M ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Barely. I survived Spring Break. I never thought I would, but I did. I have missed blogging and I am very behind. Chris' sister Dana and her 5 kids came to visit us for the week. That is alot of kids in my house! They all get along great, but it was a little nutty at times. Dana and I managed to get away without kids a few times. We went shopping at a few places and then to the mall a couple of times. Very fun.

For some reason, they would not go outside and play. Drove us crazy. It was a beautiful week, but no, they would hover around the computer, play Guitar Hero or just run around like a screaming bunch of Banshees, oh wait, that was us. No we had a fun time, really. My MIL and FIL came on Thursday and Danas husband Richard came to join the fun on Friday. So in case you lost count, that is 17 people in my house!!! '

Saturday, we all took the kids to the movies. SOme of us went to see 10,000 BC and the rest of us went to see Horton Hears a Who. Very cute movie. I would have rather of seen The Other Bolyn Sister, but I dont think that I would be eligible for Mother Of the Year if I took the kids to see that movie, now would I?

Later that night all of the adults went to dinner. It was fun to get out and spend time together without a bunch of cute snot nose kiddies in our faces.

Today I pretty much have been doing laundry up and out the Wazoo and cleaning up. I also went to Target. I was having some withdrawals from that place. I think they missed me also! It was very nice sending the kiddies out the door this morning. It was NOT nice getting up so dangh early though! After a week of sweet slumber, it was very rough rolling my rump out of bed. I for sure was not Miss Merry Sunshine this morning. Very crusty indeed.

Well I need to get going on dinner. I am going all out today. We are having some nasty dinner in a box for sure! I have not gotten my cooking wings back! Have a great night.

I was tired of seeing my last post and even though nothing too exciting is going on right now, I will post anyway. So grab that big old gallon of caffeine, because after this you will need it!

This weekend was actually pretty fun. Chris and I had 2 date nights this weekend. Friday we went out to eat and then to the mall---I Know-shocking! Not Chris' most favorite place to be. He always says that he would rather get an enema in public then to go shopping. Whatever.

He went willingly this time since Saturday he was making us go to his work party. Usually I am up for a party, but I was dreading this one. I am a jeans girl and other then church attire, I dont really have a fancy event wardrobe. I was able to pick out a dress, cute necklace and some HOT red 4inch heels to wear. They were so cute, but I felt like a total dork, walking in them!! Here is this 6 ft chick walking around in 4 inch heels and RED also. Oh well. I am glad that I have a tall husband so I could get away with it.

Saturday we just did outside stuff, got my nails done ( hate that) and then to the party. I felt bad leaving the kids 2 nights in a row, but they did great. Saturday Chris and I didnt even get home until midnight. Dallin had then all in bed by the time we got home. It is great having built in bbsitters.

Sunday was a great day. The kids got up and found their treats that the Easter Bunny left and we had dinner at Hollys. I hate posting this, but we didnt even go to church today. I felt horrible all day. We NEVER just miss church for no reason, but today we did. We just couldnt get up and going. We will probably all rot in you-know-where.

Today is the first real day of Spring Break. Can I just tell you that if today says anything, it is going to be a LLLLOOOOONNNNNNGGGGGGGGG week for me. I hope I am alive at the end of the week to tell about it. This is just a taste of what my summer is going to be like.

We were going to go to Vegas this week, but decided not to. Chris' sister Dana and her kiddies will come for a few days and then his parents will come this weekend, so that will be fun. A house full of 11 kids! What could be better?

Well I hope every one had a great holiday.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME TODAY??????!!

My food intake today:

Slimfast shake
whopper with cheese and fries, Diet Coke
HUGE handful of M&Ms
Large taco salad (hey, at least it is a salad)
1 more LARGE handful of M&Ms
Diet rootbeer

Which one of these is not like the other????? LOL

If it is true the you are what you eat, then I am a 6 ft tall pile of crap.

I am sure it because I have had a stressful and sad day today. I feel mentally and physically drained. Today I attended the funeral of a couple in our wards baby daughter. She had been in the hospital her whole 2 months of life. She was a sick little girl who couldnt overcome her illnesses. It was a beautiful service. They had a musical number of the song "Walk tall your a daughter" I guess it was the song that her mommy sang to her all the time in the hospital. I lost it! I was almost to the "ugly cry" I had to pinch myself so I wouldnt make a spectical of myself.
Really beautiful. Brooke, you guys did a great job if your reading.
Anyway, it made me want to run home and kiss my sweet babies and just sit and love them a little more today.

Well ok I need to get out of my fog and get something done today. I have my washer guy coming tomorrow. Oh goody, I get to sit home and twiddle my thumbs from between the hours of 8-12! Wish me luck!!

I HAVE A NEW NIECE!!

My brother Ken and his wife had a new baby last week. Her name is Abigail Artha. Isnt she cute?? I wanted to post earlier about her, but since nobody knows how to email or send me pictures, I had to steal this one off of my sisters blog.

Wow! Pink. That is a color that I never get to have at my house :(

Your Leprechaun Name Is:

Tweedle Potfiller

What's" Your Leprechaun Name?

I saw this on Crazymamas blog and thought it was too funny. I must say that the name is quite fitting, since the pot that I am always filling is my belly! :)

BROKEN WASHERS, AWARDS, AND SICKNESS...................OH MY!!!

So can I tell you how Manson my week has been?????? It has taken every ounce of self control for me to not hop back on an airplane for another girls week away. I have been talking to my sisters this week and we have all been saying..."a week ago today we were this or last week at this time we were here" etc...... but I instead am being a taxi driver, nurse, maid, chef and all of that fun other stuff. Hold on a minute while I find a HUGE container for all of my joy!! Just kidding. I wouldnt have it any other way. I was thinking this week to way back when (in the time of the dinosaurs) to when I was in 5th grade. I had a teacher who asked each of us what we wanted to be when we grew up. I told him "a model or a mom". Well since I didnt get the butt or face of a super modle like Giselle. I was blessed to be a mom. Ok, back to what I was going to originally post about. I swear I think I have blogger ADD. :)

Yesterday I went to the younger boys school for an assembly. Landon and other kids were awarded for showing Honesty at some point of time this month. It was cute. They had a slideshow and a speech from the principle and that was it. Loved it that it was short and sweet!

He looks thrilled

I have also had the pleasure of making 2 trips to the Drs office and 2 equally exciting trips to Walmart for prescriptions. Hayden has strep throat and Dallin has a sinus infection. Hopefully this will be the end of all the nasty cooties at my house! I snapped the picture of Hayden at Walmart while we were waiting for our drugs. I still had my camera in my bag and I am sure I looked like a total dork taking the picture, but who cares.

Hayden taking care of his "feminine needs"

This week my lovely Kenmore front loader (Sears bites the big one!) decided to take a little vacation on me. I called Sears to come out and fix it and of course they cant come until next Thursday!! Of course they cant!! They are too dang busy fixing all of their CRAPPY appliances! Ok, I got that rant out of the way! I am sure it will cost me an arm and a leg. I told Chris that if it is going to be costly, I want a new one!! I have only had it a couple of years, and it wasnt cheap, but I have not liked it one bit! We will see what happens. Well I am off to get clothes and stuff ready for church tomorrow. Ours starts at 9:30, and me not being a very gracious early riser, needs to get as much as I can done the night before.. I just got off the phone with my sister and they are coming out for a visit with my mom in April. Yeah! I am excited. Well have a great night.

I have spent way too much time trying to get these pictures in the right place in my last post, but I cant get it. GGRRRRRRR! Her are some of the pictures from the weekend O fun!

Swap Meet Fozen bananas

Back to Life, back to reality........................

Gotta love the 80s for providing a song for every moment of life! LOL

We had so much fun this past weekend, but I am EXHAUSTED!!!!!!!! We went non stop! Good times though. This is my 8th or 9th year going and I am so lucky to have Chris here to take the days off and take over my duties! They had a great time also. They told me that they had a "multicultural" weekend, pizza one night, Indian another, Vietnamese on Saturday and yesterday they made tacos. I dont think I was missed one bit.

I will try and briefly recap all of the shopping festivities. First of all the girls that go on our yearly trip are: Julie and Laura (my sisters) Kathleen and Liz (twin sisters) and Debbie.

Kathleen keeps us in stitches the whole weekend. I think she is the funniest person in the world. This girl needs her own reality show or talk show. I have known her since I was 11 or 12 years old. She use to tell me and my sister Laura that when Aunt Flo finally came to visit us, she was going to throw us a "coming out party" We were mortified. When that day finally came, we made my mom swear that she would not tell ANYONE! We really thought she would throw a big party. Pretty funny when you look back at it.

Thursday we ate dinner at Outback, I know it is nothing fancy, but it is our tradition and then we headed to a mall. I cant remember the name of it. We went back to the hotel and hung out and visited with each other.

Friday we headed to LA to the Garment or Fashion District. I think it is also called Santee Alley. It is basically a swap meet with stores. Pretty scary really, but some of the girls picked up some fun purses and bargains. We then headed to our favorite place, Fashion Island and ate at the Cheesecake Factory, we wanted Pf Changs, but the wait was 3 hours. I dont think so. We then went to South Coast Plaza Mall for more shopping. See what I mean by go go go????

Saturday we headed to the OC Swap meet for a couple of hours. It is another one of our yearly traditions. We love to go there and eat the Frozen chocolate Bananas. So yummy. We then headed to Fashion Island and had PF Changs. We were thinking about a movie, but were way to dang tired!

Sunday was the day we were all dreading! It is always so depressing thinking that we have to go another year before our next trip. It does go by fast, but still sad. We are not allowed to remind each other about how may more days or hours we have left before we have to go home, but you cantbut help think about it.

So one of the most important things for me to do on this trip besides find me some good booty jeans was to go to Sprinkles. I was tired of hearing about how wonderful this place was so we went. We were so shocked to see how many freakin people were standing in line for these things! The line was out the door and then some! I am sorry to report, that they are not all that! They kind of tasted like normal cupcakes. I did like the Red Velvet with Creme cheese frosting. It was pretty good. I am glad that I can say I did it and got that out of my system.

Well today I stayed home and did a buttload of laundry and got right back into my motherly duties. Oh the joy!! It is good to be home and I am excited to catch up on al the blog action. have a great night!

I'm Outta here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well almost! In about 24 hours I will be leaving on a jet plane. Party! After a crazy morning like todays, I am more then ready! My body and mind need this vacation. Oh, I am sure you are asking yourselves "what is fun about going away on a girls long weekend"?! Surely it cant be the 3 lovely nights of uninterrupted sleep, or the quiet lunches and dinners without a bucket o toys and snacks in your purse to entertain your perma-lunch buddy. Or it most difinitely cant be the shopping without a honkin double stroller!---naaaaa! Dont get me wrong. I have a great life. I love my family to peices. (most of the time) LOL I am sure I will miss them and will be ready to come home by the end of it, but dang, tomorrow cant come any faster.

I have been busy doing laundry, making sure there is adequate food, diapers, and all of the necessities here so Chris wont have to worry about all of that. I am so blessed that I have such a great hubby. Each year he takes the time off of work to to be home with the kids so I can go. I am a lucky girl!

Not much else going on here. This past weekend Chris had a Klondike Derby campout with the scouts. They had a good time, it was Butt cold, but they all survived! So did I. :)

Sunday my friend Josie and her cute family came to visit. Josie is the sister to Ali (on my sidebar). Ali use to Bbsit for me way back when. Now they are both moms, and we are all good friends. Since I am not quite old enough to be thier mom, they have always been nice enough to say that I am like thier "big sister".

Well I am off to clean up after the morning hurricane. Good times, good times!

IN SEARCH OF..........................................................................

I am in search of the "perfect" jeans. If anyone knows me out there, I have been on the prowl for sometime now for a great pair of jeans. These jeans that I am trying to find, have a BIG job to perform!! I am trying to find a pair that make my Butt look somewhat decent. HHHMMMM! I know that is almost impossible, it will take a miracle really, but I am sure that one pair out there might come close.

I LOVE jeans. I wear them everyday. I am obsessed with jeans. It is crazy. I have tried on some of the "high end" jeans and I think that I must have a little too much Badunkadunk in the southern half of my body to make them not fit quite right. I have found a pair that I do rather enjoy and that is the Hipster from American Eagle. They are low enough to go under my fat roll and not right in the middle of it. You know, the "Muffin top" that we all know and love.

So, I would love to hear your opinions, and recommendations on your favorite jeans. This is really and lame post, but I need help!

Ok, I also ned to clarify something on my "new Do". All I did is get a cut and added some dimension the the color. You probably have to look really hard to notice it too much, but it still feels good to have something new done. Nothing too exciting that is worth taking a picture of. You know how I hate to have my picture taken anyway :) Ok girls, you all have a job to do. Find me a jean that will give me an "apple bottom" to wear with my boots with da furrrrrrrrrrrr! ..... Love that song..... Have a great night!

I HATE TECHNOLOGY!!!

I am so not like Kip---I do not love technology! Well maybe I do, but only when it is working!

I have been sitting on my cell phone making calls trying to get my DSL to work. If the phone jack is plugged in then the computer is not working and vise versa! As you can see, I would rather have my computer working then my phone. :) Who wouldnt?! I told my husband that I NEEEEEEEDDDDD my computer to work or I will shrivel up and die! Well maybe I wouldnt mind the shriveling up part. HEEHEE

Today I went and got my hair cut and a little PIZZAAZZ put into the color. I havent had a ny color stuff done to it in eons!!! I am hoping that it makes me look FIERCE AND FABULOUS! Probably not, but you cant blame a girl for trying. Thanks to Holly for watching Hayden and LaLa for 2+ hours. She told me that La La was all over the place and into everything! UH! really??? Welcome to my life :)
I am getting all primped up for my girls trip coming up. So excited! I am going to most of you girls stomping grounds. We will be staying in the Irvine, Oc area. We do the usual mall circuit and eat a ton. If there is anything else that you feel we should not go with out trying or doing let me know!!

Well I have a huge headache from you know where and I have been neglecting my sweet kiddies since we got home. Have a great day!
