What year do you belong in?

What do you know? It's the year I was born!

You Belong in 1984

Wild, over the top, and just a little bit cheesy. You're colorful at night - and successful during the day.

I can't believe my little girl is 3 years old!!! She is growing way too fast for my liking. For Bailey's birthday we went down to one of the parks in our neighborhood and played with friends and family and had a bbq. Bailey's wonderful cousin, Alexis, made her a "Cars" cake (she is obsessed with "Cars.") Bailey asked for a balloon and a whistle for her birthday. I fancied up a whistle and we had a Cars balloon especially for her. She was happy. All the other cars and trains and toys she got didn't hurt either, she loved her presents! I have a 3 year old, man I'm old.

Disneyland

We had a great vacation...even though Maddison was deathly ill for all but the last day and then I got sick and bla bla bla. We went and spent a few days with some friends in Murrieta first. Stephen and I got to go to the San Diego temple-it was awesome! That's the only other temple we've been to besides Mesa and it was really cool to see something new. We had a bunch of fun with them and then they came with us for our first day at Disneyland. We spent 3 days there and even though it was busy and Maddi wasn't feeling well we still had a bunch of fun. We scared the crap out of Bailey on Gadget's Go Coaster-so funny, we videotaped it. And Ethan got over his fear of California Screamin and he loved it-it's now his favorite ride. And Maddi really didn't care what ride she was on she just sat there with a bla look on her face the whole time. But she did go on a lot of rides. My wonderful mom put up with my family for 6 days and I commend her for it. (my regular camera is broken so we had to use our videocamera to take all our pictures and that was really annoying to get it out all the time so we didn't take as many pics as I would have liked but here are the ones we took.

Finally, TWILIGHT

Yes, I did just come home with my very own copy of Twilight!!! In my defense of being called a giant dork (except by my sister, Jana, of course)...I was up late working hard during commercials of my recording of Grey's Anatomy and one of the commercials was about Twilight coming out today. Of course I was planning to get it this weekend. But then the commercial said, "look online to find a midnight Twilight party near you." So, out of curiosity alone, I got onto thetwilightmovie.com and found that my own little walmart in Green Valley was having a party. Of course I was finishing my show and my work so I thought, "hey, why not go get the movie now while the girls are asleep instead of having to drag them to the store to get it tomorrow-I'm up anyway." So I got it and planned on watching it during the girls' nap later this afternoon. While I drove home I found myself speeding to get there with nothing but Twilight on my mind. Therefore, I will stop typing and finally watch the movie now!!! I'm so excited!!

(PS, I haven't seen it yet because my husband is a poop and would never let me go for one reason or another)

6 random things...

****Here are the rules:
1. Post the rules on your blog
2. List 6 random things about yourself.
3. Tag 6 people at the end of your post.
4. Let each person know they have been tagged and leave a comment on their blog.
5. Let the tagger know when your entry is up.****
6. There isn't really a 6th rule but I thought this would be weird if there weren't 6

1. I am becoming really ocd. I am getting to where I want to have a super clean house ALL THE TIME. That's the good thing about Stephen having to leave for 4 months if he gets into the border patrol-my house will be clean for 4 MONTHS!

2. I have a headache

3. I think about Disneyland at least 100 times a day. We're going in 3 1/2 weeks, I can't wait!!

4. I have to speak in church this Sunday and I'm DREADING it. I hate speaking I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it. It really shouldn't be that big of a deal but I absolutely 100% completely hate it. Ugh, it's gonna suck so bad.

5. My husband drives me insane with buying and selling car parts. He does it every frickin day. Actually anyone that knows us already knows this because they hate it too. He treats his car like a little dress up doll. He bought new wheels and tires tonight...again...for the 4th or 5th time in like 6 weeks. Yes, that's not an exaggeration, he is obsessed.

6. I really need a new phone. I need a new provider too because freakin verizon doesn't work in my neighborhood but those jerks won't let me out of my contract because my phone works outside sometimes. That's right, not inside ever, but outside sometimes.

I tag: Janeen, Jeannette, Jamie, Jana, Taylor boys, & Shelly

bows and ties

So I'm trying to learn to make hair bows. I'm not terrible but then I'm no pro. These aren't all the ones I have but some of the types I've been trying to make. I can't take credit for all of these since my friend did most of the work on 2 of these and I bought one also. But I like the ribbon headbands a lot and I'm super proud of my button clips. Janeen, you still have much wisdom to give me. Anyway, anyone want a bow??
