Happy Halloween!

The picture is from the trunk-or-treat shin-dig my company did. I hope I can get more tonight!

Are they seriously just not the CUTEST?

W-I-L-D Wildcats

Nerd alert.

I saw High School Musical 3 the other day. 2 words. LOVED IT. The movie was cheesy in some areas, especially when Gabriella kept saying 'love you Wildcat' (gag). But the music and dancing made up for the cheesiness.

The music was AWESOME. I wondered how they were going to top the music from the 2nd movie and boy did they ever. The first couple of songs are from the movie.

Being even a bigger nerd, I shed a tear or two in a couple parts.
Call me a tween-er all you want, I don't care.

Nine Words Women Use

I received this through an email and had to post.. because, to me, it is SO TRUE!

NINE WORDS WOMEN USE

(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . that will bring on a 'whatever').

(8) Whatever: Is a woman's way of saying an explicit word or two

(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?'

Say Goodbye to Grandma..

As I was dropping my nephew off at "school" this afternoon, the teacher that met us at the door said....

"Say good-bye to your Grandma, Kaden". I must of had the look of 'I can't believe she just called me a grandma' on my face, because she responded, "It's Grandma, correct?" My response, 'No, I am actually his aunt'. "Oh, ok" and she walks away.

Ok, this was NOT a student, this was a woman in her mid 40's. I am not offended one bit, just more in shock. I know I had about 2 inches of re-growth. But, COME ON!!!! Grandma? Luckily I had an appointment just after dropping him off to get my roots done.

Which Princess are you?

Totally "borrowed" this idea from Janessa's blog. Hmm I hope I don't sound like Snow White when I sing. "I'm wishing...."


You Are Snow White!

Pure and trusting. You are a gentle soul who can get along with just about anyone. Everyone you meet instantly falls in love with you. How can they resist? You have a pure, lovable nature that's irresistable. Just don't trust everyone who comes across your path.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Singed nose hairs

I was doing a bit of shopping the other day and walked past a very 'musky' smell. This smell seriously brought tears to my eyes and burned my nose. I couldn't believe how strong this scent was. I looked back trying to see if I had possibly walked through a cloud of it, you know like the cloud of dirt that follows Pig Pen off a Charlie Brown cartoon, I didn't. I then looked around trying to find who the smell might have belonged to and realized to myself, WHY would I want to try and find the source.

Now I am a girl who enjoys a good smelling guy, but this seriously made me want to gag.

So here's to you, 'Mr too much cologne wearer'. Thanks to you, I still have the smell inbeded in my nose.

2nd time around..

I just finished reading the first 3 books of the Twilight Series for the second time. I have to say that I got a lot out of reading them again. Also, have to say that I couldn't help but picture the characters from the movie while I was reading. I am a bit bummed because 'my Edward' was seriously a smokin' hottie!

Randomness of thoughts.. I know.

3rd Annual Craft Cabin Weekend

For the past 3 years, a couple girls from work and I get together for a craft weekend up at Tracie's family cabin in Oakley.

Here are a some pictures of what is required to make this a snugly fun weekend.

Snow - a must, except to drive in it. Tracie kept telling me she was going to either give me a sedative OR knock me out with a shoe in order to get me down the mountain when we left.

LUCKILY - it wasn't snowing when we left. (must have been my lucky scrunchie)

Cozy socks. Or my winky parn sockies. (pinky warm fuzzy sockies).


Stack O' Movies - a definite must. How else are you supposed to craft when no movie is on?

A cozy place to sleep. You can't see my bed (I am standing by it when I took the picture.)


NAPS!! These are a definite must also. Goes to show you how much fun we were having, these girls didn't even wake up when I took the picture.

No snack bag here. We had the SNACK CABINET!!! Craving something chocolate, salty or sweet? Need some hot chocolate? You could find anything and everything in this cabinet/

We... ok I shouldn't say "we", Tracie and Teresa, winterized the cabin before we left. I "helped" by grabbing towels and wiping out the toilet tank. GO ME! They did everything else.

We entered the cabin as girls and left as WOMEN!!

Tracie draining the umm drains. :)


This is a true friend. Teresa, being the true friend that she is, will sponge out the toilet bowl. I love her face the best!

The main drain of the house, in the basement.

It was another fun weekend girls! Thanks for the memories!

I would post what I did for the weekend, but yeah I didn't do anything crafty. I read, napped and watched movies. It was wonderful.

I feel like a 13 year old

Twilight - See above and ENJOY!!!

New and final trailer until the movie premiers on November 21st.

I am seriously obsessed!

Now can you see why I feel like a 13 year old?

Hand Bag Heaven

Let me set the scene.

A few weeks ago, on a lazy Sunday morning, I received a text from my sister stating: 'I am on Canal Street what kind of handbag would you like'? (Ok, this is like asking a kid in a candy store you can only choose 1 piece of candy, but make sure it is your favorite piece because we don't know when we will be back to partake of the candy store again).

Immediately I think to myself PINK!!! I then rush to my closet to make sure I don't ask for the same kind but just in a different color. Variety here Tina. (Mindi & Misha have helped me break out of the black, and brown hand bag mold)

I text her back frantically with 'WHAT YOU ARE IN NEW YORK!? Jealous' and then texted.. 'Pink handbag alligator print'. (My friend Tracie had a very cute pink alligator print that I have been coveting for a couple of years now.)

So, being the awesome sister that she is, she brings me back the following hand bag. (and yes I did check the name to make sure it didn't say COUCH or FOACH)


Pink is my signature color! Thank you Kristin I HEART it!
