Day 3: Your idea of the perfect first date.

{30 day challenge}

Not that my first date with Ty was bad (I asked him to preference. I made the first move) but I love love love the beach! Relaxing in the sand and talking. Then splashing in the water! I could stay from morning til night. Oh and I love the notebook, so we could watch that too. That's my perfect date in general.

Happy Halloween delicious doughnuts!!

Day one:

Ok so this is me.. Today is Friday and it has been a great day so far. My sister Sharee has been hanging out with me all day. The kids had their fun Halloween parade at school today, so we went and watched that. They are so stinkin cute. I swear I have the cutest kids alive. You agree right Sharee?? (she said yes!) Any day I get to spend with one of my fabulous sisters is always a perfect day!! And tonight we are NOT looking forward to peeing our pants from being soooo scared at a CrAzY haunted hospital/asylum!

Almost Here...

HaLLoWeeN!!!

after tons of mind changing, this is what we've decided on:

Kandy Korn Witch

Dorothy

Incredible Hulk

so exciting...

ramblings from an exhausted mama

It's time to ramble, vent and complain. What I do best! If you really don't want to hear about it then feel free to skip this post.

I'm tired. I was doing so good. Keeping up on all of my classes. Making great grades.. and making myself and my teachers proud (hehe) So I like to think. Then I started looking around at my house. I was really slacking in the laundry. My kids rooms were a disaster because I would just let them do whatever they wanted while I was busy doing my homework. It was quick easy dinners and finally just get in bed time by 8 because I was too exhausted to do anything else. I wasn't being a very good wife or mother. My kids homework wasn't as good as usual because I wasn't helping them like I should. I forgot about my snack day for Kase's class. So this past week I did a total 180. My house is so clean you could lick the tile and wood floors. The laundry room is empty and has been for 4 days now (YES 4 DAYS) a record for me if you know me. Kids rooms are organized and spotless. Their homework is perfect. I got extra special snacks for Kase's class. I've been making yummy dinners and having them ready right when Ty walks in the door (not that he has ever expected that) It's just something I like to do. So now I notice that my school and grades are kinda suffering. Not that I'm failing anything. I just turned in one of my assignments a day late. At least it's still getting done right?? Instead of the A that I got on my first few math assignments and tests, I got a C on my last one. It's very depressing. I seriously don't know how to give both 100%. Sometimes I wonder if it's even possible? When I find out (because I will) I'll let ya know!!! This is a very big learning experience for me and my family. But when I get a random text from my mom saying how proud she is of me, hearing my husband tell me I'm doing great, and my kids talking about how mommy goes to school, too, that's when it makes it all worth it. They all have faith in me and love me. I'm really a lucky girl.

In other news, I get to go on a much needed one on one date tonight with Ty. I love sitting across the table from him at a nice restaraunt eating yummy food. Sometimes we just eat and talk about nothing at all. Or we like to make fun of the people sitting next to us. He makes me laugh so hard. (we're so mean, I know)

i need a manicure ASAP!

Yesterday we decided since it was probably the last nice weekend of the year, we would let loose and get DiRtY!!!

We headed up to an AwEsOmE place called "5 mile" with Sharee & Tyson on the 4 wheelers! I don't think we have ever been on such fun trails.

At the top of some of those hills.. The ViEw was absolutely breathtaking!

Big 50! and twenty-nine.

What a couple of weeks we've had! I'll try to make this post short and sweet even thought it's been a while. Life is just so busy right now. I never thought being a full time mom and a full time student would take up every single second I have but it sure does. I haven't even finished a book this past month. So yes, I am still reading Mockingjay. And I know most of you didn't like it so sshhh.. don't ruin it for me haha.

Last weekend we went to St. George for my mama's 50th birthday! I can't believe my mother is 50 years old. It was a suprise so you can imagine how hard it was for us (especially the KIDS) to keep this fun secret. The hardest part was being there 2 days before her party and not being able to see her. We went down on Thursday and stayed with our good friends, Clay & Teshua. On Friday morning we snuck over to my parent's house to visit with my dad while my mom was at work. He had fun hiding our tracks and washing little handprints off the windows after we left :) But it was such a great trip full of so many fun memories and lots of family! (even meeting a new aunt who we already love!)

(oh and I had a birthday, too! TWENTY-freakin-NINE)
