Lobsters

Ever since reading Annie's blog about Lobster things, I've been on the look out. Well, I found a pair of swim trunks at Old Navy Annie! They have them in toddler sizes.....so Charlie can bask in a little lobster fest for you! Sorry I can't post a link, Old Navy seems to be having problems this morning.

Not much to report.....getting my hair done this morning. Yeah for blonde! Scrapbooking later today at Oasis. And tomorrow we're taking the kids to go see Ratatouille first thing in the morning and then swimming. My kids are already super tan from being in the pool so much! I love little tan bodies and white bis-kee's.

Layouts!

Thought I'd share a few that I did over the weekend and in the last couple of weeks. I really had a good scrapping groove on Saturday and I love the first two NY ones. Enjoy!

Possible look alike?

I don't think so. We LOOOVE this show...."So You Think You Can Dance?" and while catching up on last nights tivo'ed episode, Ryan said she kind of looks like me. Huh? I don't see it......wish I had that rockin dancer body though! I can see the round face....but that's it.

Went to Disneyland yesterday....thats always fun. Tomorrow I'm taking the boys to see "Surf's Up" and then swimming at Grandma's house. I have to work tomorrow night...so the day should fly by! Scrapping with the design team girls at the Bee Saturday.....should be fun!!!! Have a great weekend.

I've been SO busy!

The last week has flown by! I've just now had time to sit down at the computer for a short while before taking the boys swimming. I have so much stuff to catch up on! Today is day 3 of summer vacation....we've done small busy things, but the boys are happy. Yesterday I did a little late "spring" cleaning. If you ever need entertainment (aka;babysitter) don't give your kid his meds and he'll play non stop! That was Austin yesterday. I half forgot and it was kind of late and I just said "screw it". He wore Zach and I out! Sunday-Father's Day. Had brunch at my parents, went to the BLOCK to walk around. I definitely prefer Spectrum over the block. Austin finally bought his skateboard...Tony Hawk....now I need to get him knee & elbow pads because he wants to skate at Vans Skate park and they are a MUST. Had dinner at the Yard House. It's just ok....love the atmosphere, just not digging the food. Saturday, worked in the evening. Friday I had my class. It was really cool. When Annie emails me a pic, I'll post it so you can see. It was easy, but a lot of work and I love my shirt. We also went to the Sesame Street show in the morning. That was agood time. Tomorrow we're going to Disneyland later in the day until the evening. Just trying to keep busy :)

Since I'm just hanging around...avoiding things I should be doing.....I thought I'd fill this out that Erika tagged me with.

My roommate and I once: Hmmm.....that's really open ended.

Never in my life have I: Been to Europe.

High school was: Somewhere I never want to go back to.

My hair: Short and dark.

When I was 5: Don't really remember much.

When I turn my head left:I'm looking left???

By this time next year: I could have a baby! Eeek!

My favorite aunt is: Laura

I have a hard time understanding: MEN!

You know I like you if: I call you.

My ideal breakfast is: Eggs Benedict

If you visit my home town: You can see lovely Cal State Fullerton.

My favorite blonde is:ME! Hee-hee.....ok I should be back to that lovely blondness by the 1st of July.

My favorite brunette is: My youngest brother Garrett

The animal I would like to see flying besides birds:That's a dumb question.

All right....Christine, Illyse and Jennifer W. I wanna see your answers!

Two Days.....

and school will be out! I cannot wait for Austin to be done! I have some activities planned for the boys this summer to try and keep them busy. Plus we have our "vacation" in August. We're renting a beach house in Newport for a week with my parents. I loooove the beach! We used to do this all the time when I was growing up and my parents stopped around the time I was 15. Two years ago they rented their first one again. It was a blast! My dad has surfed since he was a teenager and goes every weekend with either my little brother or his friend, so this is heaven for him. (my equivelent would be to scrapbook everyday for a whole week!) My sister might be flying in the week before and stay with us at the beach house.....hopefully. (that's my dad in that picture)

Speaking of my sister.....I was brain storming trying to think if I could pull off going to NYC and stay with her during my birthday (and hers) in December. I so want to see the city decorated for the holidays and maybe....just maybe do some shopping & see a play. It's just a lot to fly there during that time of year. :( I watched some of the Tony's and Spring Awakening swept the awards....looks really good.

We have a busy week ahead, my little brother is staying the next few days with me while my parents go to Georgia for my other brothers graduation, I'm working to help with CKU Wednesday afternoon, I have a class I'm taking Friday night, going to the Elmo show Friday morning and then there is Fathers Day! Acckk! Better run.....have a beautiful Tuesday, it's gorgeous outside!

What a mistake....

Ooooooh.....for those of you that don't know, I'm divorced, but remarried! I guess I worded that post wrong yesterday. Oops! I was simply stating that my "old" anniversary doesn't make me sad any more....it's been years. In fact we've been divorced longer than we were married, 9 years, married for only five. Any who....my friend and I were cracking up last week at how the styles have changed so much and what I would do differently if I had a big wedding now. So sorry for the confusion!

14 years ago.......

I was newly married. Can you believe that? Am I really even old enough to say I was married back then? It used to really bother me for years when my anniversary date would pass.....now I simply forget until I hear the date said out loud. It was actually yesterday, June 5th 1993. I was 21 and Mark was 22. Man were we young! I thought we had the most beautiful wedding.....so much pink! Accck!!!! Here's a pic of me and my bridesmaids in their beautiful hot pink dresses! My flowergirl is my cousin Jessica. She went to NYC with me.....if you look back at an older post (October) you'll see her all grown up! Have a great day.

Weekend

Here's a recap of our weekend. Friday we went to the local carnival. Fun, but seriously expensive. Ace Young performed because Smashmouth was "sick". The kids had a really good time. Ryan did too....his friend Mike (and his girlfriend Amy) met up with us. It was nice to see him, it's probably been 3 years since we've seen them. Zachary was a wild one.....wish I took more pics....he was on a sugar high from the cotton candy. Austin ran into his good buddy Vince so they went with his dad and rode some rides for a while.

Saturday.....all the boys got a haircut.....love it when their all cleaned up! Austin went to Mark's and went to another carnival...he was excited. We pretty much laid around and then went grocery shopping for some Carne Asada for dinner and a movie. Saw De Ja Vu......lame.

Sunday....I worked. Ryan & Zach went to Sam's with his mom. When I got home it was just us for a very short while. Zachary wanted to stay at "Bah-Bah's". Austin came home...then Zachary around 7:30 with Diego. Yep, we are the new owners of a blue betta fish. Ugh. I'm not thrilled, but he's super excited. She's a total push over, she buys him whatever he wants so we have really random stuff sometimes. Then after the kids went to bed we watched Freedom Writers. This is a MUST SEE! So inspirational and it's a true story which makes it even better.

Have a great Monday.....

June 1st!

Can you believe it's already June??? Where has the time gone? Nothing exciting to report....but we are going to this www.summerfestbrea.org tonight and it should be a lot of fun! Try to go if you can, it'll be worth it.
