Just for us to remember!!

I just wanted to write down a few things my kids do so I can remember:

Bear: "You know...Safety pins aren't so safe!!"
Rhett: "Mom today I got hit with a softball and You know..Softballs aren't so soft!"

Rhett: Dad today I was watching T.V and a Dr said he can make your S-E-X (spelled out) better!
Geno: "Rhett we don't talk about things like that!"
Rhett: "Well Dad he is a Dr!!"

Malorie and Deshawn having a fight and wanting me to fix it
Mal: Mom! I told you I would give him another chance and here he is screwing up in our house!!!!
(Deshawn sits with head down like a small boy) No Comment!
Gotta love teenage fights.

Date Day with My Man!!

Last week I got to spend a day with Geno. It was really nice to be just the two of us. You get to finish your sentences, and talk about adult stuff. We went to breakfast at Golden Corral they have a Chocolate fountain now. Yummy I had to taste the

strawberries and pineapples. Then I finally talked Geno into doing what all Women know is wonderful and to get a pedi!! He was very satisfied. It was a great day.

So Thankful to have my husband.

I love you Babe!!

Fall Break

Fall Break

Baking Day

We had Fall break last week so you know what that means: Entertaining!!

So we decided to start off with a pumpkin patch. Now its a Very different here in Az. We are used to bundling up and going out in the crisp cool air and finding big pumpkins and then going to get Hot Cocoa and/or Coffee. Well here we wear tank tops and shorts walk in the dirt to get our pumpkins and go find water or Iced tea after (: Ha Ha! We did have fun though.

We decided to have a baking day and made some yummy treats for us and our friends.

We also went and saw Real Steel. We really liked that movie. I cried at the end and it made me want to have boxing lessons.

It was a great week and I wasn't ready to give my kids back to school or go back to work.

We are settling back in getting ready for Halloween, and I have some runs coming up. (Cali here we come) Yippee!!

I

Fun for G and Me.....

San Diego!
Geno and I took a quick trip this last weekend it was really nice to get away just the two of us. We went to the Beach and to the last outdoors Motocross.
If you know anything about motocross then its exciting The feeling, the smells, the noise!!  I'm not one to bother people for autographs it feels weird to me so I just took a picture of Ryan Dungey for the boys.

Here is some pictures of our trip.

2 lost teeth and some catching up..

I can finally write on my blog again. My Computer would kick me off every time I tried.Anyways its been so long I don't know where to start so I thought with the very latest and go from there.

Rhett lost his 2Nd front tooth last night and now has no front teeth. No more baby front teeth in our house. It actually makes me sad. I feel so old my kids are getting so grown up.Lets see what else.... Bear turned 11 a couple of weeks ago. We took him to Hibachi Grill. Then Geno took him to a Arena football game.

Malorie got her own car (yippee) So nice to not have to share.

We have a new member of the family, his name is Bentley he is a black lab and oh SO cute. We all just love him. Also kids are back to school Malorie is a senior, Bear is in 5Th grade and Rhett in 2Nd. It is so hot here that it is good to be back in school and not sitting home.

WILDLIFE WORLD ZOO AND AQUARIUM!

This weekend we went to the Zoo just the 5 of us. It was a lot of fun and everyone got along (amazingly). I watched how they all wanted to show each other something and the relaxed look on Mal's face she said at one point "Thanks for this day I needed it." Last night as I looked at the calender for this week I appreciated going even more. Every night there is something to do and everyone going in every different directions. Every ones life's are so busy all the time, it was great having my Family close to me. At dinner we started talking about how Mal will be 18 in LESS than 2 years!! I wanted to burst in tears that means going away to college maybe marriage. I watch her get older everyday and love this age but now I want it to stop! I don't want a grown daughter I need some magic pill to slip in her drink to freeze time(: !

The boys too, the things they say it makes you stop for a second and realize Yup that came out of your child's mouth. At least we can still have a day like this weekend here and there.

Homecoming Part 1

On Monday I took Malorie shopping for her Homecoming dress. Malorie has not been interested in going to the dances up until now. I was starting to get worried that I would never get to take my only daughter shopping for dresses.

Mal took the day "off" from school since we have seemed to lost our daughter to cheer she never has anytime for anything. We started out and went to lunch at Olive Garden (Yum) and then hit the mall. I think in the end she tried on at least 40 -50 dresses. {sidenote: Dresses are getting shorter and shorter and shoes Higher and Higher} She finally found the "One" she loved and we searched for shoes and finished with jewelry. It was tiring but fun and I enjoyed every minute of it. I love getting to spend the day with Malorie she is so grown up its hard to remember when she was little.

Here in AZ they don't ask in the fun ways they do in Utah. When I heard this I shared with Mal's friends the fun ways we (grown- ups) used to get asked. Mal's Boyfriend listened and decided to play along and got her some balloons with a very long string that she had to pull down from the sky and the note was attached. Mal said yes by getting Flounder the fish and some Swedish fish and put his name on the big fish and wrote "All the other fish" on the bag of little fishes and a poem that said "Of all the fishy's in the sea your the one I want to take me!"

Homecoming is next weekend so I will post pictures then.
