I'm A Little Late

Hi everyone! We really didn't fall off the face of the earth! I know, I'm such a loooossseerr!

Lots of stuff has been goin on and I'm just now tryin to catch up! Bear with me!

First off....we went to Disneyland!

Like a MONTH AGO! Told ya I'm just catching up!

We went for a week. With BOTH sets of grandparents! Who does that?!

My parents (Jen) had never been. I think they enjoyed themselves!

We went for a whole week! We left on a Sunday, stayed outside Vegas @ Wiskey Pete's in Primm Nevada. FYI ~ cheap rooms (like 20 bucks) BUT YOU WANT TO STAY ON THE UPPER FLOORS.....I guess the lower floors have problems with like ants and rodents and stuff! YOU'RE WELCOME!

So here are some picture in no order what-so-ever! AND I have a boatload more to upload just can't find the #$%^ camera cord.

I did have a surprise while I was in line for PeterPan! I got a call from the manager of Hallmark up in our neck of the woods and offered me a job. We got back from our trip on the 2nd of May and I started workin part-time on the 4th!

See.....I told ya I'm trying to catch up!

Brian's already snoring so he is no help to me in finding the #$%^ camera cord! =0)

thanks for staying with this uber long post!

Grandma & Grandpa are ready for us to move.....

Let me tell you a little story.
Yesterday, while wandering around Wally-World, I spy a toy chick in the Easter novelty section. I buy it for our dog, Bella. Why? She had one 2 years ago right after we got her. SHE.LOVED.IT & mothered it to death! Emphasis on the death part. I didn't find any last year at Easter, so when I saw it yesterday, I couldn't resist.

Brought it home and gave it to her. She went nuts. Then chewed it. And slimed it.

Brian, I and the kids went to bed.

G-ma & G-pa were upstairs watching a movie in the living room.

about 10 p.m........

CrAzY pounding on the door...... there stands our back door neighbor...... freaking out.... thought we were all dead from carbon mon. poisening....

WHAT?!

He kept hearing cherping noises coming from our house area, and couldn't see any lights on in the house.

His carbon mon. detector makes that same cherping sound. He thought for sure we were all dead.

G-pa goes to investigate.

and finds Bella's chick on the back patio, stuck in the on postion because of all the chewing and sliming.

Promptly sends the chick to Jesus (aka the garbage) and gives me a firm talkin' to in the morning!

my bad =0(

Our Nest....

We ArE mOvInG!!!

Yes, after a year of living with the parentals, we are finally leaving the nest!

Not far tho, just down the street.

Same ward, same school, same friends and neighbors. We wouldn't want it any other way!

It will happen end of May, first part of June!

I'm so excited. It will be like Christmas....I forget what I've got hidden away in storage!

Ohhh! It's gonna be goooood!

How Did This Happen?

I'm 37 today....

not too sure how I feel about it.

I'll be under the covers all day...

The Tooth Fairy Sucks....

Miss Haylee lost a molar. Like a week ago. It came out at home, but she faked it and told the Sec. at school that she lost it in class just so she could get the 'tooth fairy box' to take home. Gotta love that girl!

Like I said, that was a week ago.

The fairy came......LAST NIGHT

She really sucks.

It's not like Haylee put the box in a secret place. Right in plain view, for all the world to see. Night after night, nothing. I kept telling Haylee the tooth fairy must go to bed at like 9 or something, she is not a party animal, stay up late, kinda gal.

Haylee thinks the tooth fairy sucks. She does. BIGTIME. She does things like this ALOT. Don't believe me? I have proof. Not just at our house. At Josh's house too.

My friends son, Josh thinks the tooth fairy is a horrible wretch. She forgets about him all.the.time. And then like a year or so ago, she pulled this one on him.

The Fairy must have been running late that night, and forgot to stop at the ATM. She looked in her Gucci purse and had no more mula left! What to do what to do??? Then she spotted some dollar bills sitting on the living room floor. It must have been fate! She snatched them up, put them in place of Josh's tooth, and out the window she flew!

The next morning, Josh came bursting in his parents room and shouted, "THAT STUPID TOOTH FAIRY....SHE USED MY OWN MONEY"!!!!!!!

apparently Josh 'marks' his money so that his siblings don't steal it. and it was clearly marked with big red J's all over it!

Yep! That darn tooth fairy.....she sucks in these parts!

Random...

The kidlets go back to school tomorrow

I, for one, can't wait

they are really really bored

and I'm sick of the whining

my kids actually like school {they take after their mother}

Haylee has her science fair project all ready to go {thank you Grandpa Ned} they both get a kick out of doing it every year, and have always come in first or second place

Caden's New Years resolution is to flirt LESS with the ladies

Haylee's New Years resolution is to find a boyfriend {yikes}

Madi's New Years resolution is to play more Webkinz {um nope}

McCoy's...."Momma, what's a rezloooschun"?

we went & saw 'The Princess and the Frog' last week. It was so cute. The kids loved Ray.....mostly cuz his bum lights up {big surprise}

they want to see 'Alvin & the Chipmunks' {just to see the Chipettes sing Beyonce's "Single Ladies"}

I kinda do too

I'm weird like that

I know all the moves to 'Hoedown Throwdown' by Hannah Montana

I told you it was a long Christmas Vacay!

my Primary kids did so good learning the new song I have to teach them for January {my expectations were verrrry low} they picked it right up! {I guess I must be doing something right}

totally loved the little girl in sacrament hitting her mom and screaming at the top of her lungs, "But mom I want to stay, don't make me go home, nooooooooo"

no ones cellphone went off during the sacrament {huge improvement for the ward} that makes like 2 weeks in a row! It's the same person too. You'd think they would get a hint to turn it off what with all the crusty looks shot @ them and all. Lol

Brian has to go to Grand Junction tomorrow, then Vegas on Weds. Hope the weather stays good {he's driving both}

I want to go back to Disneyland this spring, the new water show will be done in April. Anyone want to foot the bill? I've decided that's where Brian and I will serve our mission, in Disneyland, not Anahiem....

I have alot of resolutions running around in my head, but nothing I really want to put into writing, my thoughts are mush right now

I want 2010 to be an awesome year

I want the economy to get better

BIG things and IDEAS to come our way

new future, new prospects, new job, new move......making my head mush

I told you this would be random
