Uptown Girl

Chloe had so much fun at Grandma's today playing dress up in all of her fancy high heels-especially since mommy doesn't own any.
Check out Tanner in the background with his nose in a book.
Also my mom did another wedding cake over the weekend it was very elegant check it out here http://thebridespie.blogspot.com/2010/03/new-twist.html. I loved how it turned out.

Yard Sale Deals

This morning after going to get our bountiful basket my Grandma and I hit a few yardsales. I got a few steals-a bunny rabbit that is like brand new and so cute for Chloe's Easter Basket and this horse tire swing only $12 like new, these are $100 dollars at Cal Ranch. I thought the swing would be perfect for Flowell and maybe replace the old gunny sack in the tree. Both of the kids thought the swing was pretty cool.

Happy Anniversary to US

Just one more quick post it is Landon and I's 10th anniversary today! Can you believe it? Wow how time flies. Tonight we are going to go to Red Lobster to celebrate after which we will quickly head to another meeting full of angry people to who knows how long. Landon said at least it will be entertaining! and at least my Grandma has offered to let the kids stay the night if needed-thanks Gram.
Happy Anniversary Landon- I Love YOU!

Where have I been all week?

Sorry there have been no blog posts and no pictures this week. If you really know me at all I all have to do is say this and then you will realize that I have barely had time to breath this week "I have yet to open my papers and clip my coupons or look at the ads and I have only been to one store mainly to grab so milk"-GASP.

What has been occuping my time instead...
#1 the kids started baseball-practices yeah
#2 Teacher Appreciation Week at GWA, which I am over.
#3 TRAMA and Turmoil at GWA, angry mobs and lots of meetings lasting until late hours of the nights, can't explain it all on the blogs you'll have to talk to me in person for this one.

Science Fair Winners

I went to pick up Chloe from school today a little bit early so I could send her home with Grandpa since I had to stay and do some stuff at the school for a few hours she was so excited to tell me that she and Tanner had both gotten 1st place on their science fair projects.
Yeah-Way to go Kids!
Tanner's Project was Which Living Organism Has The Cleanest Mouth?
Chloe's Project Was Do Different Kinds of Apples Have the Same Number of Seeds?

Glasses

Over Spring Break Tanner had to get glasses.
His diagnosis-he is a little bit near sighted and also has a stigmatism.
He has taken to wearing them quite well and has had no problem keeping them on all day. I think he kind of actually likes wearing them. Maybe it helps that several of his friends have them. Landon was just happy that his frames were going to match his baseball uniform this year. LOL.

Good to Read and Watch

The following three books I would highly recomend they are some of the best books I have read in a long time.
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
The HourGlass Door by Lisa Mangum

FYI the third book in the series by Suzanne Collins should be coming out this Summer along with the second book in the series by Lisa Mangum, THE SPIRAL STAIRCASE.

Also we watched OLD DOGS over the weekend. I thought that is was truly one of the best movies I have seen in along time not because of what the movie was about or how well it was acted out but because there was not language, no smut, and lots of cheesy good time laughs. This movie stars Robin Williams and John Travolta.
