Danita over at The Good Bad and The Beautiful started this fun Tuesday event!

Time to open the capsule from YEARS ago......


Approx 16 years ago! YIKES! Me and my friend in Highschool, Leilani.
Who happens to STILL be my best friend!

Star Student

Kylie was Star Student this week at school!
We had to make a collage for her to hang up in her class and this is how it turned out. I think it turned out SO cute and her teacher LOVED it!
She said that is way above and beyond what most do - hehe!


Let's just say I love crafty projects!!
Except for Josh being around - UGHHH that boy makes doing ANYTHING soooooo much harder!
When he gets older I can't wait to dabble into more (like scrapbooking!!!).
But for now I only do projects when I HAVE to because instead of them being fun to do, they are HARD to do.
I still enjoy the outcome though! ;-)

King Bed For Four?

So apparently it's a super good thing we invested in a king bed!
Now, Kylie has always liked sleeping with us off and on - and Josh was doing FINE in his own bed until.....we moved here.
Now he refuses to go to bed in his own bed. And not only does he HAVE to sleep in our bed, he HAS to sleep on my pillow! He also will stay up with me until I go to bed - which really stinks sometimes! I don't get much down time to say the least. I don't really get much time away from Josh at all for that matter. Even at night he has to be all up on me AND my pillow!!!
If he could weld himself to me he totally would.
Also, since moving here Kylie has gone from off and on to more ON in our bed. So I am SOOOOO glad we invested in a larger bed before moving here!!!!!
Here is what our bed looks like at night minus me.

Do you see that little bit of room to the right?
(where there is a makeup bag sitting)
yea...that's my spot.

Busy Week Ahead!

Well it's Monday...AGAIN! Fun fun!Man I am TIRED this morning...meh!
I have a pretty busy day though so I won't be posting much. Basically I am helping at church alot this week. They are having their annual garage sale and I am volunteering. It was alot of fun helping on Saturday and I will be there today and tomorrow as well. (Next Sat. too) Kylie helped me on Saturday and she LOVED it! She was a BIG helper!
I am also continuing to help on Wednesdays in the nursery! So fun!
Next year I signed up already to be a teacher's aide for Kylie's class! I'm really excited about that. Luckily her class will be on Sunday's next year because I tried leaving Josh in the nursery when I filled in for a teacher 2 weeks ago and he WAS NOT having THAT! They ended up bringing him to the class..LOL! With it being on Sundays - Jarett can watch him. If he can't have me at least daddy is better than the nursery! LOL...one day he'll like it
in there (hopefully)
That kid - such a mama's boy!!!

Also, I am now meeting with a personal trainer at our gym! I love that gym!
It's so nice!
My trainer is awesome and is gonna kick my butt I'm sure - that's okay though I NEED someone pushing me right now. I've been in such a slump since we moved here and it's time to get back on track! I'm gonna focus on the working out part first and hopefully the eating better will follow!
I've been saying I need to get these holiday pounds off (and lots more but that's for starters!) and it's MARCH!!! Holidays are LONG gone!
So not only will it be a busy week for me, but probably a sore week as well...LOL.

Well that's about all I have for now. We are still really liking it here in Georgia! Sometimes I'm still like "hmmm, wow we live in GEORGIA - weird!"

Well thanks for reading & until next time~

Update

Sooo I've been sick and both my kids sick too.
Therefore I've been out of blog commission.
I just don't feel up to even sitting up at the computer for too long. I'll be back soon though!
Hope you all are having a great week!

And...here we go!

1. Subbing for a catechism class at church was my last random act of kindness.

2. Another place I will always call home is Tucson.

3. _____ in matters of the heart.

4. Coffee, tea or Gatorade.

5. Most friends end up taking separate paths.

6. Our beautiful home reminds me that there is definitely a God!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to picking up my mom at the airport!!!, tomorrow my plans include sleeping in and Sunday, I want to go to a "getting confirmed" meeting at church!

Can you all comment filling in #4? I couldn't think of anything AT ALL! Thanks- I look forward to seeing what you put!

Under a rock...

is where I have BEEN!
So I keep hearing this place called "ETSY" being talked about not having ANY clue what it was! Well I decided to check it out tonight to see what all the hype is.....shame on me for not knowing about this place sooner!!
This place is awesome!!! Now I get it.....
I get why you all are always talking about it!

I decided to look at bags/totes - I found some SUPER cute ones!

I just LOVED these and wanted to share:





I mean REALLY could these bags be ANY cuter??
I think NOT! Now I can join you all in saying:
"I heart Etsy!"

La La La...

Not too sure what to write about - I just feel like it's been
awhile and need to write SOMETHING! LOL
Let's see....hmmmmmm, well - doing the trying to eat better thing lately and...IT sucks! I'm having to RE-break some lovely habits that has caused my weight loss come to a major HAULT! I'm trying though I really am, summer is just around the corner and Kylie is already SO excited
to use our community pool
(yea me too...SOOOO excited).

Hmmmm...lets see what else...
With trying to eat better comes cooking more - just LOVIN' that - oh yeah LOVIN' that (P.S. I hate cooking)

I'd really like to learn how to crochet
(random, yep I know - but I really would)

Hmmmmm...I have alot of cleaning to do and shouldn't be on the computer - but what else is new there! HAHA!

Oh yeah...I wish I was going to see the Harlem Globetrotters this weekend, but I'm not. They are SO cool!

Alright, well I'm officially a dork and rambling really about nothing here - sorry if you read this...hehe!
