Letters from Santa

Are you ready for Christmas? There are only 52 days left! Would your kids love a letter from Santa? We ordered one last year and Natalie thought it was just totally awesome. Now that she is learning to read, she will love it even more this year! I totally recommend my friend Heather's Santa Letters. They are awesome and the kids love them too.

It's what you didn't do...

We were leaving Pre-K graduation today and heading on over to Old Chicago for lunch when I see this behind me in my mirror.

Just Great! Just what I need.

Officer gets to my car and I open my door.

Me: Sorry, my window doesn't open.
Him: That's okay.
Me: What did I do?
Him: It's not what you did, it's what you didn't do.
Me: What didn't I do?
Him: Seat belt.
Me: I had my seat belt on.
Him: He doesn't. (Pointing to my dh in the passenger seat).
Side Note: ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME, YOU HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO THEN SEARCH OUT PEOPLE WHO'S PASSENGERS DON'T HAVE ON A SEATBELT? GHEEZ THE CITY MUST BE HURTING FOR MONEY OR SOMETHING.
Him: Do you have your license and insurance.
Me: hand it over to him.
Him: Do you have ID Sir?
Me: Hand it over to him.
He leaves and comes back with the ticket.
Him: Sir, here is your citation for not wearing your seat belt. You don't have to go to court. It's $25 and won't affect your license.
Rich: (Sarcastically) Slow Day?
Him: It's just what we are out doing.

So, as I pull up to leave he is still behind me. We are at a light. All of a sudden he is gone. I'm like where did he go, he was just there. He JUMPED the median flipped on his lights and was stopping someone else before I was even 3 feet away.

What a joke!

Tea Please!

Mother's Day Tea Party!

Flashdance!

Last week we went to McDonald's and the Happy Meal toy was a Kidz Bop CD. This CD kept her busy for awhile so I figured I should get her the rest since she seemed to like it so much. I went on ebay and ordered the complete set of Kidz Bop CD's.

She loves them!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day. I had a wonderful day, I hope you did as well!
I woke up to some jumping on the bed to wake me up yells of "Happy Mother's Day". It was great! Once I was awake, Natalie brought me my gifts one by one. I am usually not surprised. I usually pick out what I want. This year I picked out some things but was also surprised with some more! Daddy took Natalie shopping at Target yesterday while I was out getting my hair done. I picked the scale and the videos and Natalie picked and made the rest! I got a scale, 3 workout videos, an 8x10 picture frame, a planner that I can put my own picture as the cover, a picture of Natalie, a rose, a working mothers prayer, cards, and hugs!


I have to tell you too that all of my presents were wrapped in clear plastic. When they were at Target, Daddy let Natalie pick the rolled wrapping paper. She really loved the SHINY SILVER wrapping paper so Daddy let her get it. . Little did she or Daddy know that it was clear wrapping paper that you put in bags or something. They are so cute!

She also loves the Music Cards. Doesn't matter the occasion. My card said Happy Birthday and Daddy didn't notice until they got home. So they just crossed out Birthday and added Mother's Day! lol I love them. Oh and the card sang, "That's the way..uh huh uh huh I like it, uh huh uh huh! :) :)

When I finally got out of bed we got ready for Church. After Church, Daddy made us some breakfast of spam and eggs. lol Then my MIL came over and brought me some flowers and lots of food! She brought salad, bread. fruit, lasagna, candy, cookies, and some other stuff too. Then we went to the hospital to see my Sister In Law, Jeannie. She is having gallbladder problems and so Amber is staying with my MIL and FIL. Anyhow, we went to visit so that she could see Amber on Mother's Day. After that, we came home and ate lasagna. (It was so good too!) Now we are just lounging around. Later Natalie and I are going to have a tea party.
