Over the Weekend!

I turned 30.
For my birthday we went out with friends to diner and a movie.
The Hunger Games was ehhh...I was really disappointed with it. My hubby hated it and one friend uttered "Twilight all over again"
It was better than what they thought but it just seemed to miss so much for me.
And they completely changed some some things. I even thank at some point I actually said "WHAT?" in shock.
I had lunch with my parents and sister and went dress shopping after.
People I haven't even told I was getting married have been talking to my mom about going to the wedding.
I am not complaining though. I love my family and would love to share this special day in my life with them. My step sister will also be attending. I amsuper excited!
The hubby art up to much for one evening and had to cancel on some friends. I felt super bad. He tried to make me call and cancel but I wouldn't do his dirty work for him.
STAR Test this next week. I am nervous for my children.
I dont think we are suposed to have baseball practice this week but we are because opening day is soon and the rain canceled the last few.

Ok I need some sleep.

Pics and a Really? I had no idea moment.

This is Kolby's splinter we had to go to the doc to get out.
This one is the after. Where his foot turns white is how big the swelling was. After looking at the doctor notes he changed the nurses splinter to a puncture wound.
This is part of my front yard. I learned how to use a tiller yesterday. I managed all by myself today. I hope I didn't kill my trees! The hubby came home and leveled it out after so I could seed it. I tried for hours but I am not very good at it. It only took him about 45 mins. Our yard was terrible. Weeds and patches of hard packed dirt(the kids couldn't even dig in it). I hope this makes it better. If so we will be don't another section of it soon. Its a lot of work.
This was on the wall the week I subbed. I had forgotten about until today. I don't usually go for the inspirational quotes but I really like this one. If you never leave your comfort zone you never know what could be or happen.
Do you remember the woman arrested for falsifying information about her toddler being ran over in a hit and run. She is my neighbor. My MIL asked if I had seen her around. Before that I had no idea it was her. There were always kids and the end of the drive and in the road. I always thought they shouldn't be there but there were always adults out watching. If I could hear them out when leaving I would walk to the end of the drive so I would know where they were. It is terrible. After thinking about it for a while I haven't seen either of the women that I used to see there all the time or the children. I even remember thinking they moved because I didn't see anyone at the house for a long time. :(

Its my Birthday Week!!!

  • Spring break is over and the kids are back at school.
  • We did some spring cleaning last week.
  • While we were doing all of that a piece of wood was dropped in the hallway and one of the little ones stepped on it.
  • We had to go to the doctor to get it removed. He was so set on that fact it was going to hurt he screamed the whole time and it took 3 of us to hold him down. The doc numbed it before removing it.
  • After that bandaged it up he jumped down off the table right onto that foot. When I told him not to do that his reply was "Why it doesn't hurt!"
  • My SIL was in town and the boys had baseball practice other than that we didn't do anything. It felt kinda weird and flew by way to fast.
  • The older boys had practice on Sat. One of them didn't show up :(
  • He was at his other parents and they let him get away with not coming.
  • I am royally pissed at both of them.
  • He then had the nerve to call and ask me to take him to a birthday party he wanted to go to. Ha.
  • Next time he will be waiting until after practice to leave for the weekend.
  • I got a new phone and lost all of my contacts because I cant see the screen on the other at all any more.
  • Before you ask if or why I get a whole week for my Birthday let me just tell you!
  • I get a whole month for my birthday! All the women in my family do. We just need to get our husbands on board....some of them are but I keep having to tell my husband.
  • My mother started it years ago. She started get her birthday presents early. It started at just a day or two early but each year she kept getting them earlier and earlier. My step father being the wonderful man that he is no mater what she had already gotten believes you should always get something on your birthday too. Now she gets at least one present every week during the month of her birthday.
  • Of course we were happy to have her pass this along to all of us. Now we encourage each of our husbands to follow along. We wish each other happy birthday months, weeks and days!
  • Of course I try to pass the along to my friends as well because I think every woman should be so lucky!

Blah..

  • It's spring break and I have the I don't want toos!
  • My SIL and her family are moving out of state and stopped by for a few days on their way out.
  • I love those little kids and I sure am going to miss them :(
  • The hubby is pushing the whole plan what we are doing for our wedding but he doesn't want to give and usable help...grrr.
  • It doesn't help that I don't really want to plan it.
  • I have it narrowed down to 2 places. We are going to Vegas but I have found a winery about an hour from the strip that is really pretty. My only hook up on it is : Its an hour away. Isn't the whole reason of going to Vegas so you don't have to do all that fun stuff? The other is a gazebo about 20 mins from the strip.
  • I need to shop for a dress and my mom asked me about going this week but I don't really want to go. I have the blah's.
  • My kids say the funniest stuff sometimes and I always mean to write it down so I can put it on here but I never remember to. It happened today. Its driving me nuts that I cant remember.
  • I have more stuff going through my head right now but it all seems so boring. So I am off.

Short and sweet...

  • The week has been good.
  • After working all week last week I have been playing catch up with girl time.
  • We had lunch Monday. I am sure they were glad to see us leave. We saw several tables come and go before we were done chatting.
  • Yesterday we saw a movie. This Means War.
  • I thought parts of it were funny but I hated the way the movie ended.
  • It was just unsatisfying. :(
  • It was the first time I had ever been to a Movie Tavern. It was a nice one.
  • The food was ok. The burger was good and the fries would have been good but the cheese they use had a funky taste to me.
  • There are a ton of movies coming out that I want to see.
  • On Monday something swept through and made my allergies all crazy. It has changed to what feels like a head cold. Dang it :(

Ok that's it. Time to get the kids up :)

Movie Night!!

The hubby and big boys (along with some of our friends) went to the Mavs game last night so I took the little ones to the movie.

We saw The Lorax! I was super excited about it too. I don't think I have ever read that Dr. Suess book but I know the story.

The movie was great! I laughed through most of it and it has a good story and lesson to go with it.

"I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees."

Finally Friday!

Yesterday was non eventful. Thank goodness!

  • Today not so much.
  • I had to call the principal down to get a little girl. I wanted to wring her little neck.
  • I didn't. If it would have been mine I would have.
  • Little kids should not be so disrespectful.
  • It was an all around long day. I guess because he kids were all hyped up for Friday?
  • I am glad it is over. I wont be subbing a whole week again...hopefully :)

Oh no one made any more funny art :(

  • On another note. Baseball has started again.
  • 3 teams this year. (because of age groups)
  • They are going to be redrafting the oldest team because they have now found enough players to make another team.
  • My boys wont be changing teams because the hubby is going to be coaching them.
  • I am not sure that is a good idea.
  • They have had one practice. I am going to hate to see some of the boys go.
  • We are going to have a good team this year though.
  • I am also starting one in machine pitch. I am really excited for him. Its his first year playing and he loves it.
  • The little one wanted to play tball again. He is.
  • I hate Tball. Especially the way they do it. Every kid hits and they only take one base at a time. It drives me nuts.

I am tired. That's all I've got.
