Day after Thanksgiving madness:)

I don't think that we could have possibly fit another thing into our fun filled day. Early in the morning Britt and I took off for the great sales, we seriously shopped til we dropped! By 10:30 we were needing a break so we snuck of to watch "Twilight". I have to say that I liked the movie, but I didn't care for Edward or Jacob. But I did love the Bella they chose. It was the perfect break we needed. After that we hit a few more stores and finally went to have some lunch at Nana & Papa's house. Brad and I ran a few quick runs for last minute things. As sad as it was that I spent the WHOLE day shopping, I still had to run one last time to target on the way home to get some cough medicine for my babies:) I was super glad to get home and relax:) The kids were equally excited to get home and get there jammies on, Brex and Londyn got up at 5:30 to go with daddy and Papa for a drive out to Queen Valley. So they had a super long day with only a few cat naps along the way. What a fun day, and what a fun drive home to see all the Christmas lights on, I just love the Christmas season!

Londyn you make me laugh

Londyn said the cutest thing yesterday on our way to preschool, I just had to share. We carpool with Audry who is our neighbor and one of Londyn's best little buddies. Anyways, I always turn the radio off and really listen to those girls gab in the back seat while driving because they just crack me up all the time. So a few little details are that Londyn is wearing her jean skirt with some pink cowgirl boots and Audry was wearing this frilly skirt, both looking absolutly adorable. Anyways, Londyn commented on how beautiful Audry looked. Audry's reply was "Ya, I am wearing my princess skirt because I AM a Princess". So Londyn then says "Ya, I am a cowgirl but I don't have a cow". I couldn't stop laughing:) Somone needs to get this girl a cow I guess.

GG & Gpa with all the great grandkids

This is a picture of Brad's grandparents and all the great grandkids on that side. They took this picture for Christmas. Let's just say there is never a dull moment when the family gets together:) The kids love that there is always somthing going on and somone to play with.

Brittany performs in "The Jungle Book"

Brittany really gave us a great showing of "The Jungle book". Grandma and Grandpa came from Blanding with Blaine to watch Britt perform. Also Nana & Papa came. We all really enjoyed it! Even little Brex and Londyn's eyes were glued on the stage the entire time:) we kind of wondered if they would get restless, but nope. Britt was a 60's elephant and was totally decked out in her makeup and fabu costume. She performed on fri night, 2 shows on Sat. a monday night showing and then she also had to miss school on tuesday for 2 daytime showings for a couple of schools to watch. She did great and we are super proud of her!

I am not good at these things, and most people who know me know that I am a dork and preety weird so I should be able to com up with oddles.

- I am so terrified of smelling anyone's bad breath, I hold my breath quite frequently when I think I might have encounter that. I have a client who ALWAYS has terrible knock you out breath and I have had to excuse myself out of the room when I was pregnant and even more sensitive to smell because I would have puked.

- I have to do my hair and makeup EVERY day, no matter if noone will even see me and if I am not leaving the house. It is a must! and i seriously dont do it for anyone but myself.

- I love the thrill of selling my junk or my kids old clothes on ebay:) Somtimes it is a pain to list it, but I just love to see bidding wars go on for my items. This sounds dumb I know, but I make some preety good money doing it.

-I am kind of a hombody, I love to keep busy around my house. I dont have to be gone all the time like some people. I have so many project and yard work to keep busy with that between those, my kids, and working, I just dont really care if I get out to often. Even though I do end up having a great time when I do go out. It helps that I have clients over to visit with everyday, so its not like I am a hermit.

- I lOVE to travel and stay in nice motels. The motel is half the fun of the trip. So dont ask me to stay in a dump to save a few bucks. I can remember that I was in highschool on sports trips before I ever stayed in my first motel. I remember being so excited and everyone that I was rooming with thought I was just being dumb. Maybe because I had never done this as a child is why it is such a treat now:)

- After reading Kenz's I keep thinking about one of her's on loving sweets. And we are preety much the same as far as that goes. I love dessert, but unfortunatly for me it shows. LOL but heck ya, the worse it is for you the better I am going to love it.

Very Naughty Brittany

Because I use this blog as my journal, I thought I would add a sort of funny-not so good FIRST that happened today for Brittany. I hope this doesnt embarass Britt. I received a phone call from her principal at school letting me know that Britt and 2 other girls from her class had been sent to her office this morning. I have to admit that Brittany can get a little mouthy, but not to the point of getting in real trouble at school so I was shocked and anxious to hear what had gone on. I was informed that there was a verbal fight that took place in PE class, this entire fight was totally POLITICAL. To spare you the details, these girls were really getting preety heated about all the political issues. I had to laugh a bit when the principal told me that, I then said to her "wow, that is so weird that these 5th graders are so into politics." She did tell me the main arguments, which I have to say THANK GOODNESS MY DAUGHTER IS LISTENING!!! because these things DO matter. However, she definatly needed to go about a different way of expressing her views. So yes, it was a first to get sent to the principal, but I am not to upset. Maybe I have myself a little politician on my hands.

Its that time again

OHHH NOO IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN

So I have officially held off until November 1st to start collecting addresses for Christmas cards. (I don't know why, I guess it just felt wrong to start any Christmasy things to early) and now I cant beleive that we are already here now. Soooo any friends and family stalkers that have either moved to a new address. or others that we have recently reconnected and I wouldn't have your address, PLEASE get it to me if you would like a card from the LILES CLAN:))

ps. Dont worry, I am not going to publish your addresses on my comments for everyone to see:)
