LAST PTA MEETING!

Well I Presided over my very last PTA meeting this year. It was a fun and interesting introduction into PTA. I was very touched the ladies got me a cake that said Thank You Paula and a card with gift cards to Texas Road House and for pedicures. YEAH that just made my day. It was a lot of hard work and it was very nice that they honored me in that way. It somehow really did make it all worth it. Next year I am the historian and I vowed to be at only one school too. I will have 4 going to the same school for a couple more years, that will be a pleasant break. So I will settle in to the PTA that I have the most children on. It was a learning experiance and I got to know a lot more people and feel more of the community. And more importantly i had many chances to embarass Leelani, and it doesn't get any better than that!

Leelani and I got our first ride in a stretch Hummer limo. It was huge and would seat 18. There was a group of ten of us for our friend Katie's birthday. We took the Limo and went bowling.

We went bowling. I have not been in ages and Leelani had never been. I am proud of her she never fell on her shoes and she never released the ball back into the crowd. So she did good.

Katie however took the biggest spread eagle belly flop I have ever seen halfway down the lane. But her mother was ready with the video camera, apparently she knows her daughter and knew it would be film worthy.

Leelani got to play with the camera on the way back home and strut her inner super model.

Ya know the limo thing is cool but i have to rant. The price of them are not too bad, (not that i paid i have looked into them before though) But they have a three hour minimum. So essentially you pay for it to take you somewhere, then you pay for it to sit in the parking lot while you eat, bowl whatever. So it is kind of a rip off that way. I bet they would have more clientell if they raise the hourly price just a smidge and then let people go hour by hour. I think it would open up the market more and have more people use them. But hey, if I ever have an extra bazillion dollars to buy a hummer limo service that is what i would do.

Twins B day!

THE TWINS TUNRED FIVE TODAY!!!

We had two seperate parties this year.

We had them at school so their school friends could attend.

We danced and danced!

They got to open a couple of presents at school.

And they danced some more...

Then it was Nikki's turn, we moved to her
classroom and sang and opened presents.

Then we came home and sang to them again and let them

eat their little seperate cakes...

And of course we opened up a few more presents.
It was a great day! I just can't believe how big they are getting.

My babies are FIVE!!!

I am going to try to post to my blog from my phone. This is a test, of the emergency blogging systems.

PUPPY POWER

We played with my friend Trish's puppies. They are a mixed breed collie and cocker spaniel. So we have decided they must me Collie Spaniels. The kids had a great time. Puppies are always fun.




Everyone picked their favorite puppy and got to pamper it for awhile. Trish said the puppies have never been so calm. They didn't have to fight for attention.

It was another great day!

HAPPY EASTER!

We took a non traditional approach to Egg decorating this year. We rolled, baked and decorated Easter cookies instead of dying eggs. Easter kind of stuck up on us. I have decided I like to hide plastic eggs, it is so much better to mow over a lost one of those than a rotten real egg.

The kids were very creative and had a lot of fun doing it. Of course they didn't mind that they get to eat the first cookie they made.

I was so very impressed at how well they rolled out the cookies this time. They are getting so much better at it. Of course the Christmas cookie cutter with lots of narrow areas make it harder. So I guess from now on We will only decorate round christmas bulbs. HA! OR ...maybe it means I need to use this exam same recipe.

LONG WEEK OVER

After a very long week i am glad to be resting. However i am sad that it is flat on my back. Overtaxed my body and tweaked my back. Glad it was General Conference so i could take a day on the couch. Hopefully i will be 100% tomorrow. I am avoiding calls this week to make up for an over busy last week. HA
