August Rush-A Must See!

David and I had a great time on our date. David SPOILED me, like always! It was so great to be together all by ourselves. That doesn't happen very often, so we really enjoyed it. While we were eating at the Olive Garden, at the table next to us were 4 college students (2 boys, 2 girls) dating. It was so funny to over hear their conversation-"so where you from..." That sort of stuff! David and I both agreed that we did NOT want to be there again! We love our life together and it'd be a nightmare if we weren't!

So we watched the best movie we have seen in a long time that we HIGHLY recommend! "August Rush" was SO AWESOME. And the best part- it was PG!!! Not many movies you walk away from that you say "that was a good movie, but there was this one part..." these days. When it ended I wanted to see more. I even stayed awake! David knows I am awful when it comes to late night movies and finishing through the end. He did keep nudging me to make sure I was awake during the movie, which I reassured him I was! The bowl of ice cream helped too.

The weather turned around nicely and it was a beautiful day! Thanks honey for making my day special. I love you!

I also realized that I turned 27 on the 27th! That only happens once in a lifetime!

Happy Birthday, and It was your GOLDEN BIRTHDAY, that is what we call it atleast. Not that it is really any different from any other birthday when you get to be a mom, right! Sounds like a nice day.

How close have you been to a Prophet?

David, and two other guys he works with, were invited to the Jazz game last Friday night. I have come to find out as a construction wife, to get business, you gotta play A LOT ! Here is a short list, not limited to, of what I mean by "play": Golfing (about 3 times a week-depending on the week and in warm weather of course) Snow skiing (about 2 times a week, again this depends on the week and when there's snow) Fancy dinners (this can also be counted as lunch, which happens more than I know I'm sure!) Executive Retreats (this will be happening in February for about 5 days in AZ, which will have all 5 days full of golfing, guaranteed!!) Jazz games (again, when in season) I don't know about you, but I think I'm in the wrong career!! This house wife things just does not include ANY of those benefits!! Anyway, on with the story at the Jazz game... These weren't just ordinary tickets. Where do executives and people in high places sit? Oh yeah, ...

Our New Family Pictures

I have been on the hunt for a really good photographer for a long time here and there.  And I think I found one that did everything I wanted.  First, she comes and looks at the feel of your home.  For us I just sent pictures of our living room where I wanted the pictures placed.  Then she suggests colors to wear and sent pictures back with our room and picture placements she puts on the walls.  And with 5 kids, especially Jenna, you really have to photo shop A LOT!!  Almost every photo with Jenna she had to photo shop.  She did amazing!!  I was so nervous when we went over and viewed our pictures at her house.  As David put it after our photo shoot “She has to be a magician to get anything good out of that!  That was a disaster!”  After looking at our proofs I said, “well, you are a magician!”  And David said after leaving and climbing in our car to go home “That was worth every penny.”  Success! I do have a few faces to...

Melanie’s Calling in Life

Image
Two Days ago Melanie was getting ready to go out the door.  She had her coat and was looking for her other jacket.  I asked her why she needed it when she already had her coat on.  She said she was going to take it to her friend at school, Humana, because she wears 3 jackets and doesn’t have a coat.  5 minutes later Melanie asked me “Mom, can we buy Humana a coat?”  I had already been thinking about that but told Melanie I would look while I was out to see if I could find one.  I went to 3 different stores to look!  Winter coats in that size are hard to find these days!  But I finally found something at Walmart and got gloves and a hat.  My friend, Angela, who drove carpool that morning called me while I was out looking.  She called worried because Melanie had said on the way to school that her friend didn’t have a coat and was sleeping on the floor.  I told her I knew about the coat and was getting one but Melanie hadn’t mentioned ...
