This is Maycen's scrapbooking work! Isn't she great?
She'll leave notes all over the house for Mike and I, saying how thankful she is and how much she loves us! She left these on our pillows so I would find them when I got out of the shower! Such a doll!Need I say more? holy cow, I hate this time of the year, money wise anyway! Well I just started working more hours so I could earn some spending $$ for Christmas and to also finish paying off the girls' tonsil bills, right?? Well I called to get our furnace green stickered and the furnace man takes one look at our furnace and is wondering why none of us are dead! AAH Considering our furnace is apparently 50-60 years old, he said that there wasn't an intake (blah blah blah, it goes right over my head) so all of the bad air is recycling through our house!? Oh and our gas valve was broken and our furnace is so old they don't even make that brand anymore so guess what?? And that our old furnace was only like 40-50% efficient. So half of what we've paid for in the last 6 years has gone straight outside! Kinda makes me angry butta...whatya do? Oh thats right..... WE HAVE TO FORK OUT $1400 FOR A NEW FURNACE! OH Did I mention that Christmas is almost 1 month away and the girls are at a stage that both Mike and I are stumped on what to get them so we were thinking a four wheeler! Well I think we've thrown that out the window......so I hope Santa shows up this year!!!
So the girls came home with school pics today and I thought I'd post them, and see how much they've grown over the years! Oh this really makes me feel OLD!! AAAHH

Fun days at the photobooth!! I honestly haven't done one of these since high school. Maycen really was in the one with Jordyn and Quinlan but she was cut off so she got to do one all by herself. Wahoo! GOOD TIMES!!
This was honestly such a challenge to try to get them in this position cuz' in my head it was easy butta.....to explain how to make a sideways T plus Q didn't wanna hold still. Yikes!!! But they sure are cute anyway!
Too CUTE!!
Poor Jordyn was in this costume from 7 in the morning til about 8 at night!!
Maycen won best costume for the trunk or treat awards!
So SWEET!!!
I only took pictures of Quinlan on my phone so we'll "recreate" halloween and post pics of him soon!Ok so I played volleyball for the church and it was to go to region ....right? Well being the competitor that I am, I played like crap and we lost. Well while walking home my daughter Jordyn didn't was complaining about carrying her water bottle so I kinda ripped it out of her hand and we kept walking. Well about 4 steps later I realized I was outta control..stopped and apologized to her. Bless her heart she said it was fine! Well I went on explaining and told both of my daughters that I was kinda mad for not winning and not playing well. So my little Maycen says, "Mom why are you so upset, it's just a game!" Oh man she totally put me in my place which is what I needed. Thanks girls! I love you so much! And I am very blessed to have the two most wonderful daughters ever!!

Facts/Habits about myself
1. I love being a MOM....(most of the time)
2. I love to read. Its not a good things though, when I get a good book I am useless until I finish it (usually 2 days)
3. I am very random.
4. I suffer from something called a memory...or lack of it! LOL! !t drives Mike crazy. OOPS!
5. I have a few OCD tendencies, such as I can't stand being in a room with two clocks that have different times. And everything needs to be centered, for example if a painting is hanging above a dresser it needs to be centered or I can't stop thinking about it. I also make the letter M with everything possible,telephone poles and wires a TV, a car, the ground, something on the ground!! Call me crazy but...whatya do?
6. I love cuddling up by the fire when it is cold outside!
