There baaacckkk..

Ahhhh how I love thee foam hand soap.. and guess what?the Christmas scents hit the shelfs this past weekend. Guess who was first in line? Yep it was me... I am so glad Christmas isn't far away! I love the season and I love this soap!! Not sure why maybe it is the smell. They have every smell you can think of to choose from and great ones for your kitchen too. Maybe because it is so easy for my kids to use. It is kinda fun so it encourages them to wash the germs off. Maybe because there is no mess from a bar of soap laying around and even looks a little better. Either way call it high maintenance all ya want I LOVE LOVE LOVE them!! If your stocking is at my house Santa usually leaves one or two. He knows and is watching ya know :0)

The Greatest PunKins Ever~

One Great Night~

I have been a Tanya Tucker fan since I was a little girl and when I say a fan it is probably like no other... if I ever have a little girl she will be named Delta Dawn.. It was on my list of names for my boys Grayson & Tucker (still not sure why I didn't at least get one of them?) My favorite Uncle Bud used to sing Delta Dawn to me as a little girl. I still hear him sing that song to me when it comes on the radio. We used to sing that whole album together so it holds a special place for me.
So when my husband called after a oh so crazy week, I hadn't been home had any sleep or even seen my kids all week. Yet it was Tanya Tucker and we were guest listed really NOWAY not missing that no matter if I was running on empty or not. It was oh so worth it hands down the best show I have ever seen... I think I have such a draw to her cause she has always been the bad girl of country. Never really gave a crap about what the rest thought said what she wanted, for sure was always different, she always stayed true to herself. Plus, back in the day she was a pretty hot lady.I just have always loved her voice and her music and I guess her rebel ways. I have to say I think I have every album she has ever put out and probably lost a few and bought them again. We hung out with her kids after the show and they are just as amazing as she is and all have wonderful voices and just as distinct as hers. Paul Overstreet showed up as a surprise to celebrate her birthday. We had been across the street for a few beers before the show and Paul came over and took the bar stool beside me that our friend Jayson was sitting on (he was on a potty break) which was kinda funny. Great guy and still has a great voice as well. Too bad we can't trade in these Justin Bebers, Hanna Montana, & Taylor Swifts and get back Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and a few others from the 80's the music from that decade just seems so solid. I will say the place was packed and sold out at $40 a ticket which I though was a little crazy but now oh so worth it I will so pay to go back. One observation I thought was interesting it was full of OLD people wasn't sure if I was gonna have to catch dentures or a depend undergarment..

Bright and Shiny People

Ohh feelin the pain a little here on this one....

Not sure how we all looked at the same time and half way got a smile out of any of us but Waaaahhh Laaa.. shewww what a long hot day!

Pretty cool too..

So a new toy for mommy and I loves loves loves it...not sure how my boys heard I wanted this new camera/play toy called a Kodak Playsport. Granted didn't really need it and if it were left up to me I would of never bought it for myself but hey I guess those are the best gifts to get right?? Yeah the ones you woulda never bought for yourself....welp someone whispered it to my kiddos. They are so smart they know how to use the computer and ordered it right on up and had it delivered to me for my birthday. Shewww kids these days...they are so smart!! :0) So check out this little clip I haven't got the cool new crazy card that goes with it yet but you kinda get the idea... I tell ya I love this thing it is awesome!! waterproof, shockproof, fits in your purse or your pocket, plays video on HD TV. SOLD I LOVE IT!! Psssttttt even fits in a stocking !!

Sweetest Birthday gift ever~

I just LOVE simple and what is better than a box cake with sprinkles made by my boys for my birthday. Ahh I love it!! How flippen cute?? Little Luke (aka BullDawg) just couldn't keep his fingers out not sure if he is singing or being cute and inching towards it to get his fingers in there again..hehehe. I guess at least when he did get a finger full he shared with everyone around the table. :0) Good news is Cooper can officially write his name all by himself so he signed my card it looks wonderful!!

I have always said I measure a year by my birthday and yep the year is over and here goes another. So here is a brief reflection trying not to look back to much Bernice (Hope Floats) says it is bad luck. I started last year out with my baby having major surgery. The very next night sitting at Dells Children's in the emergency room literally all night with a preemie baby. Hopefully NEVER AGAIN!~ The year moved on and my oldest came down with the Swine Flu now that was some fun times...we literally went 3 months in a row visiting our pediatrician every single week usually on Friday. For the most part it was Luke no one ever warns ya about the ticket the entry you get when you have a preemie baby. Dec 19th got here and I fell down our stairs and got a metal plate and 8 screws in my ankle for Christmas. Not sure if any of you have ever got a gift like this but I have had 2 very tough pregnancies and I will gladly take 3 more than to have to take that pain ever again. Oh me that was awful and still is on some days. We have had a few other medical scares within the extended family but all are well and still kicking. I did fit in a weekend or 2 with my girlfriends for a mommy break sheww that was nice! My parents made it down this year for my birthday and it was a nice break for us all. I thank god everyday for my babies that they are healthy and bring such happiness to us all. Even though we have had a super tough time and learned a lot having a preemie baby it has made us that much stronger and appreciate the simple things in life. I am very thankful for such a great family and to be surrounded by great friends and the awesome support god knows without you guys I wouldnt be where I am... Now here is to a better year and going for NO WHAMMIES!!!~

Eeyore or Tigger??

Ewwwww EWwwww Ewww as Tigger says.
I have been quite here lately and not blogged on my blog much. Not cause I dont have anything to say HA you know me better than that... cause I have been by far way too busy!! Sheessh yep I am takin me a break and I am so excited. You know how this works right you take one big nap or blink of an eye and poof it is over! That is kinda what I am expecting here but either way I am excited normally I am in Rock Star mode and ready for an entire month of a party for my birthday. Not so much this year not sure why.. I guess old age has crept in on my old asss....humm wonder if Eeyore fits on here better? hehe welp I am off to enjoy a week of vacation without really having to travel anywhere no planes, trains, or automobiles and that makes me happy!! I get to stay home and enjoy my kiddos and log out of work and the stuipdasses that live there for a whole week. yeahhh me! So until next week have a happy week. !! Eww hoo Hoo
