Micheal buble




Pics with my family

Here are some fun pictures we took at the baseball museum and the derby place!












Easter








Well this week has been really fun. My parents and younger sister were able to fly over and stay for several days. We had a blast, there is alot more to do here then in Bakersfield and we were determined to go see some sights.



But first we started with the flea market that is in my little town, i love this place and go every Saturday, all by myself. I don't always buy something, but i usually come out with at least a pair of 1$ earrings. We decorated Parker's room with lots of trains, horses and cars, we found there.






We also went to the Louisville Slugger Factory, it may sound kinda lame but it was actually really fun and was in a really old part of town so the buildings are beautiful. We played around the museum for a while and took lots of fun pictures. We got lost on the way to Churchill Downs, the place where the Kentucky Derby is. When we finally got there we were laughing so hard, `at ourselves and my dads back seat driving comments.



- side note- My dad broke his shoulder about 3 weed ago and its really bad, he had surgery and is going to have more. He is taking a lot of pain killers, and i mean a lot. He was dazed or sleeping the whole time. So he was making funny and rude comments all while sitting in the back seat with his eyes closed and his head on a pillow. sad but funny!



The derby looks like it would be a lot of fun, but i think its really hard to get tickets.



Me and my sister went shopping and out to lunch the next day, we were going to go to Cincinnati, but my dad was tired from the previous day. I love hanging out with my sister and i love when my mom babysits, for 5 hours!!!



The kids had a blast playing and loving everyone.






Easter Sunday we had a great time, we had a little party with people who have no family around like us. There were 9 adults and a gaggle of kids. Luckily i just bought a new table that is beautiful and seats 10 people with the leaf. I got it at Pottery Barn and paid an arm and a leg but it is well worth it.



We ate a lot of yummy food and the kids had an Easter egg hunt, while it snowed.



Yes it snowed, I really want it to be spring and warm I'm tired of snow and rain.



Me and the girls got cute new dresses, courtesy of our loving dad! I bought the girls dresses too late and i couldn't find any white sweaters or sweaters that match, but they still looked cute, cold but cute. I bought my dress at Dress barn and new shoes at TJ max, my new favorite places to shop. I always thought that Dress Barn was for old woman but i really like some of the dresses they have.



My kids are really tired and seem to be coming down from the sugar high they were on all day yesterday, they are all crying and i am desperately trying to ignore them. Cate is the hardest to ignore because she gets right in your face and cries. Its lovely, really.






This week is supposed to be nice so we should be able to go to the park and do some fun stuff. We will also we starting to look for houses. I hate the house we are in and desperately want to get out of it. There are no places to rent around here so we will be buying, now that our Cali house is being rented.



-Sidenote- Cate just burped in my face, twice!






I think that is all for now.



By the way Jocelyn is responsible for my cute new look and is welcome to change it as often as she likes!!!

No news is good news






Nothing really going on here. Just trying to get through the cold here and make it to summer.


Just some thoughts:


Both of the girls walk on their tiptoes

Parker has wicked bad gas

Emma's is getting better

If all is quiet, be concerned

Parker has a big mouth and its constantly open

I'm going to a Michael Buble' concert tonight

I'm not speaking to Richard, should make for a fun date!

Got my hair cut, fun bob, needed to cut all the dead off

Parker loves to stand and talk to you, if he is not standing and looking at you he is unhappy

Cate loves to play "where are you?" as she runs through the house


Have a great weekend!

Can you smell it?


I don't want to TOOT my own horn or anything, but I'm getting pretty good at making pizza. This was thrown together about 10 minutes before Richard got home(including dough). Its a yummy chicken tomato mix, with lots of garlic. I ran out of food and this is what i came up with. Its purdy aint it.
Just thought i would post a nice picture.
p.s TOOT TOOT!!!

Are you willing to take the chance?



So I took a chance today and checked my email. Cate was seemingly occupied with a movie and i only needed to check really quickly. Well she was not as into the movie as i had hoped she would be. And here is the photographic evidence.
You cant really tell, but most of the eggs are broken. And yes that is a very sharp knife that she used to pry open the yogurt, on my new leather ottoman. I Hope I've learned my lesson

Lost : if found plese return to Kentucky


Lost:


One curly haired dimpled face baby girl. Sweet loving and mischievous. Loves to cuddle and play games. Gives sweet kisses and hugs all the time. Loves her family, especially her sister.


This baby has been replaced by a crying bundle of temperaments. No more fun days with my baby Cate. The days have been replaced by a cranky and sometimes mean little alien.

The members of our new ward think that she is not very sweet, i tried to tell them that this is not my Cate, this is an impostor here to make me crazy, now they think I'm crazy.
