Girls Night Out!!

On Saturday night, thanks to Nick who gave me tickets for my birthday and Zach & Shally who gave Ali and I tickets for Christmas, we got to go to the High school Musical Ice Tour! It was so much fun to watch Ali get so excited and to listen to her sing along with all the songs. She loved it especially when the pink golf cart was being driven around on the ice!!! What a great way to spend time together. I love this kind of stuff!!! Thanks Zach,Shally & Nick!!!!!

A Big Thank You!!!!

My little family is the BEST!!! I have been pretty sick for the last week and have not done much of anything except lay in bed. Brandon and the kids got a big taste of what it is like when mom can do absolutley nothing so I just had to blog a little bit about how much I love and appreicate them.

Actually, Brandon does so much around here anyway that I really feel bad he has gotten stuck with me this week (he did have to go out of town for a few days and I think he was probaly really glad to leave).

a little list of things they have done for me this week....

help me sit up
get me food or drinks
pick up perscriptions
wash my hair
put my hair up
help me get dressed
listen to me barf and cry because it hurt so bad
get me heating pads and ice packs
clean out the barfing bowl

all these things along with all the everyday things like..
lunches for school
homework
lessons
breakfast,dinner
grocery shopping
laundry
dishes

I think you get the point...

You can really tell how much your family loves you and cares about what you are going through when you have hard times like we have had this week. They will probably never really know how much I appreicate them taking care of me and all they have done this week.

I am still not back to normal but am feeling a little better today. Yeah!!!


Brandon, Mitch and Ali, I love you guys so much!!!THANKS!!!!

Here's some Total Momsense

Thought this was FUNNY when I saw it on Shally's blog.

What is Motherly Love

I think this say's it all!!!

From Quick and Simple magazine:

Motherly Love Is..........

Pretending that you're already full when your child wants the one cookie left in the box.

Wishing it was you with the stomach flu and not him.

Dealing with everything that comes your way without giving it a second

thought, whether it's vomit, snot or poo.

Being driven crazy when he's with you, but missing him like crazy when he isn't.

Sitting through an entire Barney DVD because it's her favorite and she wants to share it with you.

Accepting the soggy half-eaten cookie she lovingly offers you ( and eating it too!)

Buying a box of cereal just to get the prize he so desperatley wants.

Happily replacing your favorite painting with that lovely dried macaroni collage she just made for you.

What is motherly love to you?
