SCHOOOOLLLSSS OUT FOR SUMMER......

today was my first day of summer break.... i had the very best of intentions to get up and be productive.... but cort was in my bathroom....and when i started to do my hair i got the worst cramps....i had no choice but to lay in bed......and some how i'm not sure how it happened.....but i feel back to sleep.....i must have slept like a rock because when i woke the clock said it was 1:30!!!!

ok this is nothing new for me. i really have been known to sleep my days away. but i have talked and talked to myself. and i agreed that this would not happen this summer. so i am off to a bad start, but tomorrow is another day right? and i know i can do better.

i am going to set some goals, make some lists, and i know this will help. i am not going to get discouraged.

goals:

*train to walk/jog my first half marathon
*plant a garden and stick with it this year
*do allot of hiking(the kids and i love to do this)
*get out of bed by 10 weather i worked the night before or not
list of to dos:

*but in basement flooring
*organize and simplify my drawers and closets
*make cort a head board
*build a entertainment center for big tv

i think that sounds great to start with. wish me luck!!!

Mothers Day.....

and they did not disappoint me......

I think I must have the most amazing family... they really did read my blog and they really did get me all the things I wonted on my wish list. Don't tell them but one item would have been great. Now don't you worry my little darlings. I am very happy that you thought you needed to get me all the items on my list because I just had the most perfect mothers day ever!!!!!

Oh my gosh I cant even believe that I really posted that picture........ humility is a wonderful thing.......anyways I did wake to my fam bringing me fresh fruit, fountain diet coke, fresh flowers, new pjs and a gift card to get my nails done. Oh I think that I am in heaven. But the very best part was that no one fought!!!! And the dishes where done all day and the laundry...well they really worked hard on it. I totally understand, its a never ending battle.

One more item I did not even ask for but got anyways.... the flower I am smelling in the picture.. Denver made it. It is a book mark... love it!! He informed the fam that he made it "with his talent!!!"

You go Den your full of talent.

Hope you all had as wonderful of a Mothers Day as I did. And thanks to my little darlins and my big darlin as well, you are awesome!!!

and the mother of the year award goes to.....

Mothers Day Wishes

To my darling little Darlins........

Mothers Day is fast approaching... you know, it is on May 9th, that is a Sunday. Just a few days away....do you need some hints as to what your mother would need? (maybe wont is a better word)

1. to wake up with the fragrance of a diet coke( that must be a fountain dc, but you know that) and fruit at the side of my bed. ( a vase of flowers would add a nice touch)

2.a great pair of pjs and slippers that match (so i can spend the entire day in them)

3. you know how i love big fluffy sweatshirts? one without paint or bleach stains would be great.

4. heck how about my very own fountain diet coke machine for the kitchen.

5. you know my nails... i have been biting them again. maybe a new set?

6.oh yes and my car.... the one i share with you Cortney.... it needs a enema big time.

7. i can hear the ocean calling my name.

8. all the dirty clothes..if i just did not have to look at them for the day. (because you washed them) that would be the best.

9. for that matter... if the kitchen was dirty dish free!!!! awww.... that's what I'm talking about.

Just some little hints to help you out.... your welcome... do with them what you will......

No really all i wont for mothers day is my kids to be happy and not fight that would be the best mothers day ever....

Love you little darins xoxoxox
