You do it cuz I said so that's why....

I have the cutest mom and dad..... Saturday I got do their Christmas pictures and it always turns out to be fun. I love that they just let me tell them what to do. I think I could get them to stand on their heads if I wanted... jk.. they are always willing to pose and then pose some more and I love them for it.. Dad always has to get silly and let his creative side show..lol...They are cute.. I think Dad might be Johnny Cash's younger brother..hahahah

hhhhmmm

Well i saw this and had to write about it....lol...

i loved the books myself but I know there were many ppl that don't understand the big deal..... those are the folks that didn't read it.... anyway, what if it is just a pile of crap and the love of Edward or even Jacob is all fake story book stuff? Are we (the fans) the true idiots? Does it in the long run hurt our reality to believe in such fantasy? (my love life is perfect so this is all directed to you guys) just wondering...later gators

Worn out Fences

I have always loved animals.. especially Dogs!
Well a month ago I was walking to the bus w Hayden and my friend and we noticed all the worn out fences and the scary looking dogs behind them. We made it safely there though so don't worry........ but, now this is the exciting part. I decided that I was gonna get some exercise (never a good idea) and walk up the big hill behind our house. I said good by to Kendra and headed home. I got to the top of the hill and saw my neighbor walking his dog on a leash plus a body harness. I should know then. Anyway I said to him " that's an awful lot a leash for one dog." then he stopped we talked about how big his dog is getting (great Dane Norwegian ridge back mix) HUGE. I said "he's friendly right?" stuck the back of my hand twrd his nose and .......... well he jumped up and I leaned back just enough to feel his breath on my face but not his teeth on my lips. I spun around and put my arm up just as he jumped and snipped again but this time he got my arm. Well I was spinning so Yea!!! the teeth that did go in got pulled through my flesh AWESOME! My neighbor grabbed him (not knowing he had got me) and kept apologizing I know how it is when your dog is misbehaving (we own 2 boxers) so I bravely said "Oh, its totally okay I understand " cujo jumped at me again and I said "Well I'm gonna go" I turned and walked speedily away hearing him scold his dog in the background. My arm was on fire. never in my 27 yrs (lol) have i been bitten. I got to the corner and burst into tears.. full on sobbing... I text Brian and bawled all the way home. Brian of coarse being logical and grownup told me I had to go back and tell them their dog bit me. (i hate confrontation) luckily when I got home they were in their backyard so I was able to just talk to them over our fences. AWKWARD.. They are great neighbors and I hate situations like that. Well good new is.. I LIVED!!! and I learned not all scary things are behind fences and just because something looks safe doesn't mean it is!

Nashville YEE HAW

This month(2 months ago now) Brian had a conference in Nashville Tennessee. It just happen to fall on the 14th of Oct. Now a lil Brian Charity history real quick..... Our first date was Oct 13 (sadies i had to ask him) Then by the 15th of Oct. well Brian was madly in love with me...lol.. anyway it was a fun chance to get away together and fall in love again. We Left right after Davin and Brian's big winning football game (GO LIL GIANTS) and headed to Vegas.

The ride was fun! We had a few good laughs and got some great funny pictures. When we got to Vegas we met up with our friend Jess and ate dinner at PF Chang's.. i had never been so i was pretty stoked. The food was okay but we were starving so it all worked out. After we ate we walked around the huge mall and I think we looked at everything. Brian and Jess looked at the girl dancing on the slot machine and I looked at clothes. We said good bye to Jess and went to check in our room........ you wont believe this........ they put us in the suite.. the one at the end.. so from the bath tub you could see the whole strip.. it was so so amazing too bad we had to get up early for our flight.
We got to Nashville around noon and checked into our waaay more expensive waaay smaller room. My days were spent laying in bed or walking over to the mall while I waited for Brian to get done with class. We got lost a few times in our adventures around the Gaylord Hotel.
Our Nashville night was not Brian's favorite. It was freezing cold and everywhere we went it was country Music (go figure). We did eat Fried dill pickles, had a full beer spilled on me, (and my new white coat) and watched people that were waay to drunk try and dance so I believe we had a Nashville experience. One afternoon we went and saw the Grand Ole Opry House.. it was fun they had a Marty Robins display and many other things that reminded me of my Dad. All in all it was a fun fun time and fun to get away and just be the 2 of us. I love you Brian. (btw he did have a mullet and loved country music when we met)

When I grow up...

Well I stared my class three weeks ago. It has been awesome. I love being able to join in a conversation and feel like I actually know what I'm talking about. It is fun to learn new ways of presenting what is in my mind.

I slip in bed when you're asleep To hold you close and feel your breath on me Tomorrow there'll be so much to do So tonight I'll drift in a dream with you.



I read this on a friends blog and burst into tears... I'm not even joking.. I think the reality of life just hit me really hard.. My babies that I used to cuddle up in bed with and feel their chubby little hands and kiss their foreheads while they slept. Are not babies anymore!
All to often I say the words. "not right now... Just a second .. go play..maybe.. we'll see... Sooner then I know they will quit asking me to play dolls or pet shops. They will lose interest in sharing their stories they wrote or how cool this Poke'mon is..
Life is complicated and i really get hung up on nothing ever being clean or looking right. This quote just brings the true importance of life to light... who gives a crap if the house is messy! I'm sick of fighting a losing battle anyway....lol..A clean house is just that a clean house ... but a home with kids and love and playing has messes.. and i would much rather have a HOME any day...

All American Rejects

Thanks to a great friend me and Brian got free tickets to go to the AAR concert in Vegas on Friday.. I love that band and all their songs.. we had a blast Tim and Teri were roped into going with us and it made it lots of fun... I had a girl friend to dance around with and Brian had a guy to talk to on the ride up and back.. During the concert the security kept making us stop with the pics so we played around in the parking lot after word.. I think Jess may have thought we were all crazy!!!

Geo Cacheing on the 4th... wee woo

9 kids WOW

Yesterday I got Jen's lil kids for the day. We had a good time. Ashley loved feeding Doc. We had planned on going to pick cherries but that got cancelled. So instead we went to Walmart and bought things to paint.....
While there the girls found the wood letters and spelled things out.. I shoulda told them that wasn't funny but it kinda was so instead I took their picture.
I must be too relaxed about things like that cus earlier that day Davin came in my room dieing laughing " Mom , there is a team named The Nuggets." and then a few hours later he thought it was hilarity to tell Brian they found a baseball card and the guys last name was Sax... hhmmm I don't know where he gets that from...
