Ward Ski Night

It was the Ward Ski Night last night. We decided to go, even though we are not skiiers.
The kids had some fun playing in the snow.
Kristian, Cory, and I had some fun in the Lodge playing Phase 10.

Kambree brought plenty to keep herself entertained..... and some friends too! It's a good thing too... cuz she forgot her snow gear!

(She told me she had already got it... so I thought that meant in the car. Apparently that meant out of the cubbie and in a pile on the laundry room floor!)

It was a fun night, we are blessed to have such great friends in our ward!

The WORST Job In The House

I absolutely HATE to clean the fridge. I would rather scrub bathrooms and toilets. When I am pregnant, it's Cory's job, cuz I would throw up..... too bad that will never happen again.
The "Before" Picture. (Notice how far away it is, so you don't really know how dirty it really is)
All empty, and getting a good cleaning.
Kambree wanted to help, so I put her to work at the sink washing out the door shelves and the crisper drawer. (She was actually a really good helper!)

The finished product. Ahhhhh, glad that's done..... for who knows how long. :D

Am I the only one who thinks this is the worst job in the house?

Another Reason

I have always thought myself to be a good speller. Not a PERFECT one, but I thought I was pretty good, and was kind of critical of others who I thought should know how to spell certain words.......
..... I STAND CORRECTED! Thanks to the cute little spell check button for our posts, I have found numerous mistakes..... and that is when I have remembered to check it! So I have found yet, Another Reason..... blogging is good for me!

I had to work today til 3:30. I had cleaned my kitchen really good the night before for a "little" gathering with friends (12 to be exact) that were coming for dinner tonight. This is what I walked in to at 3:40 pm with people arriving at 5:15! I have been waiting for more light in my Kitchen for 6 1/2 years..... and he chooses TODAY to do it!
Insulation all over my counters......
Insulation and sheet rock dust all over my cooktop....
Insulation and dust all over my chairs and floor.....
My new can lights!!!
I have sooooo much more light in my Kitchen and I love it! Thanks so much JED (AKA Mr. Electirc) for all the "help"! I love it!

Cory's Twilight Experience

I'm a Jacob! I found out through TwilightersAnonymous.com. Which Twilight Male Are You? Take the quiz and find out!
Take the Quiz and Share Your Results!
You’re down to earth, easy to please and people usually enjoy your warm company.Although you form lasting relationships, those closest to you can be put off by your stubbornness and temper. You can also be annoyingly persistent, but you are loyal and would bravely defend those that you love. Just wanted to see what Cory would be...... this was fun, he just asked..... "who's Jacob?" but several of the descriptions fit, so I guess you never know!

My Twilight Obscession Continues....

I'm a Bella! I found out through TwilightersAnonymous.com. Which Twilight Female Are You? Take the quiz and find out! Take the Quiz and Share Your Results! You are observant, diplomatic and often aim to please. You are unaware of your attractiveness and despite being uncomfortable with any form of attention, people enjoy your company. You can be impatient, stubborn and headstrong, but you are true to your word and mature for your age, often taking care of your family and enjoying a good book over chatting with girlfriends on the phone. I am anxiously awaiting this movie!! Yea that it is being released early!! This was fun..... Thanks Amy E!

My Quirk Tag

My SIL Amy tagged me a while ago.... I am finally getting around to it.... I actually had to think about it, and had to ask my family for help?? What is up with that? So here goes..... this is what we came up with..... my six "Quirks"........ 1. - I twirl my hair..... when I am bored, reading, or just watching TV. I twirl and twirl around one finger until it is really tight... I try to pull it through and knot it, and sometimes it works, and it's knotted all up and causes breakage, and then it ticks me off..... but I still do it. 2. - I can't stand my food on my plate to touch each other. They need to be in their own seperate area, and I usually eat one item at a time, but not always. This causes me severe anxiety at any ward dinner where they are serving you, because I can't tell the person spooning corn onto my plate to keep it in a pile, and not let it go everywhere. Or the guy serving the meat to NOT just lay it across my potatoes to save room on the plate.... it really freaks me out, and then I sit down and just look at this mess on my plate, and I have a hard time eating it, cuz I pick around food that has touched other food. I know it all ends up mixed in your stomach, but I don't want corn that tastes like red jello in my mouth! 3. - It drives me crazy to have a show or movie saved on my DVR that I have already watched. I delete right after I watch..... this drives Cory crazy because I delete something he is planning on watching... I don't do it on purpose, my fingers just know what buttons to push as soon as I have watched something, and it just happens so fast..... and then it's gone! 4. - I have to have our house picked up before bed. Sometimes the kitchen is not clean and the dishes not done, but I always worry that we will be up in the night, in the dark, stumbling around toys and crap. So 1 hour before bedtime, my kids do what we call "house clean up" and everything needs to be put away, baths and jammies on, teeth brushed, and then they have free time until actual bedtime. This is also in effect if we are leaving town and won't be home for a few days..... everything has to be put away, bedrooms neat and tidy, dishes done and the trash taken out. 5. - I hate Hate HATE to be late. It causes me serious anxiety. If we have something planned, I calculate how long it takes to drive there, arriving a few minutes early, and plan my day and how long it takes to get ready around it. Even if we are backing out of the garage or driving down the driveway and we are a few minutes late, I am.... GRRRRRR ing and HISSSSSS ing in my head. I hate the attention it draws to yourself to walk in or arrive late.... with everyone looking at you. I also hate it when people do it to me because it shows a lack of respect for other peoples time, and it's rude. (Sorry all you chronically late people) I hate missing something important or "instructions" because you are late. However I am getting better..... the more kids I have had, the harder it is to be on time. No matter how much earlier I try to get ready the next time, we still have some sort of issue that makes us late.... like "Mom... I can't find my shoe". I am trying to be better at being more spontaneous and not planning out my whole day, cuz it gets really frustrating when it doesn't go the way I planned. 6. - All the cans in my pantry and food storage area have to have labels facing OUT. It makes no sense to me to put them in sideways or backwards cuz then you don't know what you have without turning them all! It just makes sense and I don't understand why you would do it any other way...... why make things hard later????? You could so easily miss something you were looking for if you can't see it clearly.

So Who Wants The Flu???

These are the sad faces of poor little kids whose mother makes them get Flu Shots.....

These are supposed to be the happy faces of the little kids whose mother buys them Ice Cream Cones after their flu shots.....

Except Gage wasn't happy cuz his was melting all over his hand! That would make anyone UNhappy!
