Made my day moment...

These are my girls. I love them to pieces. Olivia (the one on the right) is in First Grade and was asked to write a paragraph describing what she thinks she will be like when shes is 100 years old....this is what she wrote.

Wen I am 100 I whant to be a chirliter and chir and chir and chir and chir.

And be a palis women.

And see who ever does samptheng rong.

And B sow hape and be good to the wrled and be a good chirliter.

Did you get that? Let me translate.

When I am 100 I want to be a cheerleader and cheer and cheer and cheer and cheer.

And be a police woman.

And see whoever does something wrong.

And be so happy and be good to the world and be a good cheerleader.

Then I saw her picture she drew to go along with it which made her have gray hair, glasses, some wrinkles and a big birthday cake.

She turned to me and said "You wanna know why I have a birthday cake mom? Because I'm turning 100 duh?"

Normally using the word duh like that would be cause for me getting mad, but Oh my word. I love that girl. She makes me laugh and laugh! The whole thing just made my day so I just wanted to share that with you....thanks for listening :)

Eclipse

Thought some of you would enjoy this...Ahhhhhhh

My future home

I thought I would go ahead and share with you my future home....

Beckie's Future Abode....click here!

So what do you think? So what if I have to move to Atlanta.....so what if it costs 4.95 million?

Isn't it beautiful?

I can dream can't I?

Moment in the midst of chaos...

So I was making lunch in the kitchen trying not to lose it with the laughing, screaming and pure yelling that was going on, and I started quietly humming "Love Story" by Taylor Swift, when all of the sudden my little girls and their two little girl friends start singing the lyrics word for word at the top of their lungs, actions and all, with my 2 year old son laughing hysterically....it totally made my day :) Robyn, I think we need to have a girls night next time Taylor's in town!

:)

A definite must see...

Loved it! Loved it!

Feelin like this....

but that's not going to stop me from seeing this tonight!

I'm on amoxicillin trying to kick it in the butt.

Need a laugh?

:(

I will be attending to my little boy who has so graciously taken the flu on. I won't be posing for a few days, instead I will be doing my motherly duties and wiping noses, getting Gatorade, tickling backs not to mention sanitizing, bleaching and febreezing my house (and car). Oldest child is at the docs as we speak to see if she too has graciously taken on the oink. She's afraid if you get the swine flu you really will start oinking! Will follow up in about 30 minutes and then I'm out :)

FYI : Hannah doesn't have the oink! Hallelujah!

My Halloween decor...

I thought I would share my Halloween decoration ideas and get you motivated to decorate! I still haven't done these candles (which I really, really want to do) because I've been down and out with some sort of flu.....regular flu, oink flu, I don't know :) Hope you enjoy!

My adorable Scetsy candle and this cute box I found at Swiss Days!
By far these two things are my most expensive Halloween decorations.
candle - $27
box - $29

I love this witch! $12.95 at TaiPan (if you don't have a TaiPan near you, I am so sorry. )

Trick or Treat block set - $14.95 TaiPan
Boo pumpkin - $9.95 Quilted Bear
Spider - $3.95 Quilted Bear

These were flying out the door and me and my mom were determined to get our hands on these!
I think all together they were around $50 at TaiPan. You can also use these on Halloween with candles inside on your doorstep!

I think I got this at Gardner Village. Can't remember how much?

My table centerpiece is my kids favorite! Boston even took a bite out of one of the pumpkins thinking it might possibly be candy....
Happy Haunting sign - made it!
Halloween garland - $11.95 Some cute boutique in the Fashion Place mall

My front door pumpkins (one of my favs)
$11.95 TaiPan

Oh my ladder! Fall decor was $35 at Quilted Bear
Leaves - $1.50 JoAnn's

Maybe this will give some of you ideas or encourage you to get on over to Tai Pan or fly to were there is a Tai Pan :) I would love to see your fall and Halloween decor!!

They have about five or six different sets to choose from.....so cute!

Happy 25th Anniversary!

Aren't my parents the cutest? They still act like newlyweds......trust me :)
I love you!
