SINGLE LADIES!!

Everytime I hear this song ... this is what I see in my head. (you'll have to pause my playlist at the bottom of my blog.)


The one on the left is Justin Timberlake. lol

Is that not the funniest thing you've ever seen?

Getting Crafty!

My friend invited me over to make a wreath, and this the one that I made! I am NOT a crafty person, but I think it turned out pretty good! I cant wait to put up our Christmas decorations, and I think I am going to try to make a few Christmas decorations in the next few weeks!

JACKPOT!

While cleaning off my night stand this morning, I noticed there were a few coins INSIDE my printer/fax machine. I knew the girls had been playing by my nightstand, finding coins, and what not ... Little did I know they were using my printer as a PIGGY BANK!
The printer.


The COIN slot


My jackpot.


5 Quarters. 4 Nickels. 1 Dime. 50 Pennies. 1 Sim Card


There's still a few coins rattling around in there.

Twilight

I admit, I went and saw Twilight at midnight. My mom is part of the Gladys Knight choir, and a bunch of them reserved a party room at Town Square. We had a little pre-party with food, (It was somones birthday) then we got our very own private screening of TWILIGHT in our very own private auditorium! There were only about 50 of us in one room! I totally loved that I didnt have to wait in line, or deal with crazy teenagers! I had VERY LOW expectations of the movie. Im still undecided on if I liked it or not.

The family! (minus Linds. we missed you!)





This is how empty our auditorium was! We were up at the very top row. It was really nice!


Those who saw it ... what did you think?!

Digi-Scrap Question

I am trying to put together these Calandar pages for Christmas Gifts ... I can NOT figure out how to crop pictures into CIRCLES. I can get ovals with crazy edges, hearts, squares... but I cant get a simple circle! HELP! If you know how, please fill me in on the little secret!!

UNLV Basketball!

(Aaron and I, last year)

UNLV Basketball starts today, and I am so EXCITED!! GO REBELS!!


And for all you BYU fans ... "REAL Mormons are REBELS!!" :)
(I saw that on a sign last year ...)

I have an announcement!

CARLIE poop'ed ON THE POTTY! WOOHOO!!

I NEED...

(I sound pretty needy with all these 'I need' posts...)

I need a running/workout buddy. I really need to get into shape. I tend to do better if I have a work out buddy. I would like to eventually run a marathon, so I would like to start running every morning. So, if you live in my area, and want to start running with me, LET ME KNOW! email me @ hvalentine623@aol.com

I Am Thankful For

Im going to create a sidebar for the things I am thankful for. SO, look for it!

# 8 I am thankful for Spray and Wash. This stuff gets out any stain! (cherry slurpee out of 2 white shirts. black pen off of those same 2 white shirts.)

Thankful.

Aarons friend JoAnna has challenged her blog readers to write one thing they are thankful for each day of November. Since Im a week behind, here are 7 things I am thankful for!

1. I am thankful for friends. I dont get out of the house much, so seeing friendly faces is a treat for me, and it helps me stay sane!

2. I am thankful for my calling. (CTR5 teacher) My kids are great, and I just love their little personalities. They are going to teach me a ton this year!

3. I am thankful for my husband, and all the hard work he does. It allows me to stay at home with Claire and Carlie.

4. I am thankful for my family! Its nice to have such a great support system on BOTH sides!

5. I am thankful that my girls sleep through the night, and take great naps during the day. Some people dont have this luxury!

6. I am thankful for Digital Scrapbooking! If I didnt discover this little hobby, all of my pictures of the twins would be in my computer, just hanging out. I gave up on paper scrapping a while ago!

7. I am thankful for music. When I am in a bad mood, I listen to music, and I will come out of that bad mood almost instantly!


What are YOU Thankful for?

I. NEED. A. SODA!

I'll admit it. Im ADDICTED to caffeine. I have been for as long as I can remember. Many times I have tried to break my addiction, and have always come back to my dear friend Mt. Dew/Coke (or sometimes Diet Mt. Dew, depending on my mood)

This week I have been drinking a TON of water, which is HUGE for me, because, really I hate water. And oddly enough, yesterday I CRAVED water! But today, after drinking 36 ounces of water, and 0 ounces of soda, i've got a lovely caffeine headache. I've got the shakes, im moody and gosh dangit, I JUST NEED A SODA!

I told Aaron a few days ago, that I didnt want to store any soda at home anymore, because I drink way too much of it. Our soda supply is gone. Im half tempted to load the girls up in the car, and head down to the gas station ...

Happy Anniversary!

Aaron and I have been married for 6 years today!

Last night we went out to dinner, at Kabuki (a Japanese restaurant) and had the Habachi dinner. It was really good! After dinner we walked around Town Square for a little bit, then went over to Planet Hollywood to get some Gelato, but after walking just a little bit my feet were KILLING me!! (p.s. dont buy new high heels and expect to actually WALK in them for a long distance in the same day!) So, we drove out to Luv Its instead. After dessert we exchanged cards. I just about died when I opened my card from Aaron. I bought him the EXACT same card! How funny is that?! Anyway, we had a great time!

Happy Anniversary Aaron, I love you!
