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...

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??

some recent pix

Bailey & her friends, Caden and Micaela watching Charlie & the Chocolate Factory (Bailey's fav) Much needed nap for these girls

sporting the hand-me-down chucks

Ethan and Maddison playing

it was a cold day

she didn't like the hat so much

Maddi got an ear infection-hence the feverish rosey cheeks and half-dead look

she even looks pretty after her Sunday nap

Bailey got to spend the night at Grandma's house twice in the past month. Fancy pj's huh?

Rodeo parade time!

My mom and I took Bailey, Maddi, and my nieces Makayla, Alexis and Jordynn to the rodeo parade. I hadn't been in years and we all had a really good time. The girls loved seeing all the horses, ponies and donkeys. I enjoyed plugging my nose while pretty much every animal conveniently pooped on the road in front of us. It was a fun day.

This was just a cute sign

foxy ladies

They really did dye this poor horse pink. Animal cruelty anyone?

Border patrol bagpipes!

This one is the border patrol

Grandma and the girls

you can't see him but Ronald McDonald was on this one

The Mormon Batallion (look it up if you don't know about it) That's our bishop with the rifle in the front!

EW! Creepy!

If any of you think Stephen works hard while he's at work. This shows you the kind of sick things he's really up to. My poor kids.

bailey's first braids

So they're super small cause her hair is so thin and fine but they're braids and they're adorable!
