TGIF


So ready for the weekend...not like we slow down that much, but a little is better than none. Just took one child to a sleepover/bday party, another to his basketball game, then dinner, grocery store, & sleepover at our casa. Two teenage boys can really clean out a pantry...hence, the grocery store trip!! Good thing my teenage boy filled up his hollow leg at IHOP after his game...he had the bottomless pancake meal...WOW that skinny boy can eat!!! Then, one of the best parts of the evening was my pedicure from my little squirt!!! She painted one foot pink & the other blue...my feet look like cotton candy...I LOVE it!!! Then it was her turn for a mani/pedi. Same colors, but alternating fingers...perfection! Bring on the weekend...no school & lots of blobbing on the agenda...I hope my man gets to come home some this weekend so we can blob together!!

That's right, baby...SWISH!!!

American Idol is coming...American Idol is coming!!!

I don't know what happened to my post from yesterday, so let me re-cap. Loved Chuck & The Bachelor last night!!! Even though I still have that silly song stuck in my head...On the Wings of Love! Not, only did they play on the words of the song, but they actually played the song. I may need a drill to bore a hole for its escape from my head!!!

Did you watch the Bachelor? Holy Smokes, Wowzer, & Are you kidding me? Never seen that happen before!!! Ding dong, the witch is dead...one down & one to go + a nut job. This season seems to be starting out rather exciting!!! One of the girls was kicked off the show last night for entering into an "inappropriate" relationship with one of the staffers!!! Nice...what class. She's there to meet the love of her life, her Mr. Right...but, instead settled for Mr. Right NOW!!! I'm glad she is gone, she was not one of my favorites. You could tell it was all a game & national exposure for her. Poor Bachelor Hubba Hubba!!!! Now if he can just get rid of the other gamer, before he kisses her!!!! And, please get rid of the nut job, before she starts boiling poor innocent bunnies!!!! She's starting to make Glenn Close's character from Fatal Attraction seem rather well adjusted! I hope Jake really does find his one true love (Ali) & not turn into a slime like all the other returning bachelors have.

Well, enough about this obsession & onto the next! American Idol is coming!!!!! Can't wait! I'm very interested to see this season's new dynamics...this should be fun!

Hot date!!


Had a great day of worship at our most amazing church & was reminded that "Christ shows you not only what God is, but what man was meant to be"!!!! Awesome message!

Well, my man got called into work just before we were leaving for church, but he promised to take me on a date when he got home...& he did!! We went & saw Sherlock Holmes & I'll have to say that it was a very fun movie. My only problem is the fact that it has been out for a few weeks & I am just now getting to see it. I usually don't wait so long. I think Robert Downey, Jr. & Jude Law did super jobs. They played off of each other really well & were truly believable as long time friends. I especially love when I am watching a movie & a character comes up that has a familiar face & then the light bulb goes on & I realize where I have seen the face before...which movie. So satisfying!!! Have you seen the movie? Did you recognize a face that perhaps you haven't seen in tons of other movies? Hint: in one of my all time favorite movies.

Kelly Reilly stars as Mary Morstan and Jude Law stars as Dr. John Watson in Sherlock Holmes

My night was then completed with watching one of my favorite tv shows that has been off the air for way too long!!! Chuck is back & I'm so excited. That show makes me giggle...a lot!!! And, last night did not fail me. I'm so glad they did not decide to cancel this show!!! So fun! Even more exciting, there is another episode tomorrow night, as well. Bad part, then I'll have to wait another week to watch it again. Wow!!!! What am I gonna do with myself? Tomorrow will hold sweet Chuck & Bachelor Hubba Hubba! It's gonna be a good week! :0)

Back to real life!




Just so you know, I did NOT fall off the face of the earth...real life showed up this week. Gone are the days of CHRISTmas break & all the fun time off. We jumped back into life with both feet & therefore, we've been a wee bit busy!!! We had basketball, ballet, games, church activities, auditions, & most importantly school. We were supposed to start back to our homeschool co-op group on Tuesday, but...I got pink eye! Yep, you heard me...pink eye! What am I, 6? (don't answer that) It was beautiful!!! However, I didn't want to spread the wealth to all our cute little families, who sit in very close quarters at our co-op! That's alright, I heard the heater was broken anyway...I'd like to take credit for planning that ! :0)

I will try to be more diligent for my faithful followers (all 6 of you :0) & keep you updated a little better & more regular basis. Plus, my sister-in-law, Cindy (this blog was her brainchild), likes daily updates. :0) I'm not sure my life is interesting enough for daily updates, but I'll see what I can do. Plus, if I do daily updates, I have another excuse to post pictures of my beautiful family!

I will let you know that tonight was a girls night out!!! My sweet girls and I had a supremely girly evening, while our boys had a very masculine mens night out of laser tag & burgers. The girls & I had dinner & then went shopping...and for those of you who know me, realize what a sacrifice that is for me!! I must REALLY love them!!!!

I will "see" you tomorrow!! Don't pass out with excitement! :0)

Speaking of Bachelors...

So...who watched the season opener of the Bachelor...On the Wings of Love? Really...they couldn't just call it the Bachelor? Or, the Bachelor...Hubba Hubba? Cuz now I've got that song stuck in my head!


Well, the girls from the hood (neighborhood) & I all got together to christen this new season. Since we are all just walking perfection, it made it very easy for us to weed out & comment on most of the Bachelorettes. As we screamed at the screen when he kept the Fatal Attraction girl & the mean girls, we decided on some early favorites (Ali, Corrie, Kathryn). We'll just have to stay tuned to the "Most Romantic Rose Ceremony" & "Most Dramatic" season yet. So, good luck, Bachelor Jake (aka Bachelor Hubba Hubba) on finding your one true love...cuz, we all know "Love Don't Come Easy"!! I guess if you don't watch this show or past seasons of it, or the Bachelorette, I've probably lost you. But, I'm cracking myself up!!!! :0) I'll keep you posted as you wait impatiently! I hope we won't need air sickness bags!! We'll see!!
