So last night we were sitting and watching tv. And Kelcy farted really loud. So I go Kelcy say excuse me. And she goes "No. Burps get excuse me's, not farts." So I go well what do farts get?" Her response...
"IT WAS MAMA!!!"
My baby is 4! Her birthday was in March which means i'm only about a month behind on blogging! :) The day was pretty fun. We took her and her friend Akayla to see Disney on Ice and then just had a small party at our house. They had so much fun! When we first got to the ESA Kelcy was terrified she was going to fall down all the stairs but after Tinkerbell came out she was fine... Unfortunately for us Tinkerbell didnt come out until after intermission!
*I just noticed all of these pictures are out of order... but I really am to lazy to fix it so just pretend they are in order!*
First up:
THE LITTLE MERMAID.
Really who couldn't love this under the sea love tale reenacted on ice?
Next:
LILO AND STITCH
So awesome. They even had the space ship landing which apparently I didnt get a pic of.
Next:
INTERMISSION
Yes Kelcy really looked like that the whole time, and as you can see Mads was thrilled.
Finale:
PETER PAN!
THE PARTY:
Can anyone guess the favorite toy?
Yeah thats right I'm a blog slacker. So what! What are you gonna do about it huh? Huh? Thats what I thought! You got Nothin'! Ok well that was random and yet fun. There isn't much new to report at the moment. We are FINALLY a two car household again. I regret selling my car so much now. If I could rewind the past two years I'd do it in a second! So many decisions seemed good at the time and ended up biting us in the behind. Lucky for us we managed to get a really sweet deal on a car. We found a 1993 Chevy s10 Blazer on KSl for $850.00! It has 132000 miles on it and has no problems. It runs great and gets really good gas mileage. I did a little research and found out the car has a blue book value of $1700-2100! and every other one that was listed on KSL was at least $1500 and had more miles! I'm so excited! I was thinking for the $1000.00 that we had cash to spend we'd get the biggest pile of crap. But we got so lucky! Its been well maintained, literally driven by the cutest "old" lady. The last oil change was done in May of 2008 and its only had 300 miles put on it since then! It has 4 wheel drive and power windows.
Like this but blue!
Seriously SUCH a sweet deal! Its Tracy car due to the lack of air bags for the girls but I'm so glad I dont have to pick him up from work anymore! Its so nice. Now I can get the girls back on a schedule and hopefully start going to bed before 2 AM. Also, this will allow me extra time to work out. If I can get motivated again! Any suggestions will be appreciated! LOL
I find myself very reflective and introverted as of late. I keep thinking of a million things I want to do and I cant really make myself do any of them. I need a new hobby. Something active and fun. Something where I can feel productive and proud of myself for something! But also something kinda cheap since I'm poor. My latest hobby has involved picking new cars for me on the internet. We are going to go car shopping in a few weeks and I know what I want. I just hope I can get it!
Thoughts?
Wouldnt I look so sweet driving this baby? HAHAH
So here it is, 2009. Last year my post around this time was about how 2008 better be great. It wasn't great. In fact as a whole there were few positives about the year. So I've decided not to make any resolutions that I'm not going to keep this year. Instead I'm going to live by a quote that I found in my book... that I just forgot the title of. Anyways its by Gordon B. Hinkley and it has a quote for every day of the year and a scripture. Great book. Anyways so my theme for this year is BE BETTER. Thats all. and it can apply to anything you choose. Be a better wife, a better mother, a better worker. Whatever! So thats what i'm going to try to do this year. Just be better. No weight loss goals, no unrealistic expectations of being a perfect person. Just trying.
And for those of you who dont know, Tracy and I have decided to get sealed on March 7th in the Salt Lake Temple. :0) I'm pretty excited about it. Its something that I never thought would happen for us so I'm really proud that we've been going to church and doing everything we can.
Thats all I have for right now so Bring it on 2009. Show me what you got!
As my cute husband reminded me last night I never did post what I thought of the Twilight movie. I'll be honest. The first time I thought it was complete cheese and was seriously disappointed with it. But the second time, and the third time it was SO much better!I still think Jasper is stupid, especially his hair. Emmett is hilarious, by far my favorite character in the movie even though he has practically no lines. James gets hotter every time and Rosalie isn't the epitome of beauty that she is in the books. That being said, what movie really and truly captures the characters you love so much in your heart perfectly? I thought they did a good job and especially with their small budget. I still would go see it again and probably will. Its definitely one I'm going to buy on DVD and I'm so happy that they are proceeding with New Moon and Eclipse. I also totally approve of Catherine Hardwick NOT directing the sequels. She had a vision for the first movie that I didnt really agree with so I'm excited to see what another director can do. However I do hope its NOT like the Harry Potter sequels where nothing is the same. I understand that Hogwarts is magical but seriously, you change the whole look of the grounds and its just weird! That being said I think they will continue to film in Oregon and the magical world of Forks will stay true to itself. I'm also happy that people that are watching the movie are now reading the books!
