I'd rather be at PF chang's


So while you ladies have been partying in Utah here is what I have been doing (since Thursday when Jenna got sick):

-Taking care of sick kids as they all got the stomach flu one after another
-Supplying the troops with an endless supply of movies & video games
-Listening to 7 year olds whine about how bad they are feeling and describe in great detail all their gastric distress
-Refilling Sprite cups
-Holding little girl hair back for ease of vomiting

Ahh... a vacation for sure...

My Offspring?????

I know kids have spare time on their hands from time to time. And they watch tv, or spend time with friends. Roller skate, or ride bikes or whatever. We dream that they might spend their time doing something constructive!!!! My precious offspring spend their spare time trying to roll UP the stairs!
The little one I can almost understand, but that big one is taking her Senior AP Calculus test tomorrow!!!! While I sign her up for her 2nd semester of college!!!!

Should I be worried?????

Girl's Night Out '08

As requested, here's our picture from PF Chang's. Notice how happy we all look? The reason: see Exhibit B.

Exhibit B:
The only thing that could have made this year's GNO better would have been to have all of us there. Marg, Jenny, Jeannie, Emily, Maria: we missed you!

Sowing Her Wild Oats



This past weekend, with no children or spouse to hold her down, Laila went a little wild, threw caution to the wind and bought sassy new shoes and a sporty new car. The pictures tell most of the story, but beyond that- I'm sorry, Brent. What happens at Girl's Night Out stays at Girl's Night Out!

in case you weren't excited enough before

The Tale of a Cat Pushed too FAR!!!

So Lincoln fell asleep on the couch, and Madison thought he looked like a comphy place to sleep also!
So she crawled up on the blue blanket and fell asleep. Everything was peacefull. After sleeping more or less upright for a while, Lincoln fell over. All was still well with the cat. Although the angle might be a little less optimal.

Then Lincoln GRABS the cat and WRANGLES her under his head to use as a PILLOW!!!!! Note the look on the cat's face. The cat put up with this treatment for a suprisingly long time. I was proud of her.
Then she left. It took some doing, since he had her in some kind of death grip, and kept trying to re-pillow, if you know what if mean.



Dishonest?


I surely hope this is not dishonest! I just posted the doctored house picture on KSL for rent and on KSL for sale by owner. I tried to chase down some sod Ramona had a lead on, but it did not work out. Guess I'd better go and get some seeds and start watering like crazy so it won't be a case of false advertising!
