Say Cheese!

Well, now that Kelton is mobile and crawling all over the place, I just have to be on the look out. Today was no exception. Kelton had crawled off and it became too quiet. When I found where he had crawled to this is what I found.


Yes, one big cheese. He was so pleased with him self. I blame Tony for leaving the cheese puffs open and on the floor. Perfect for Kelton to get into. :) It was pretty funny! :)

Hawaii-itis

My brother made this video.



He made it for a contest that Marriott Resorts is hosting. If he wins the contest, he wins a trip for 11 to Hawaii (yes, that would include me). So check it out. Even if he doesn't win, it's totally funny. The video with the most views wins. Hawaii here I come???

If you liked the one above, check out some of his other work.

NO WAY!

You will never believe this one....ok you probably will, because my kid brother is so dang awesome!!!
My brother Creighton is super talented in making movies and doing all sorts of things funny. So awhile back he made this movie and entered it into a contest. He was informed that he won a camcorder. But the plot thickens and it totally gets better. He was just one of about 10 finalists. He called tonight and told us that he ended up being the grand prize winner....and got 2 round trip tickets to New York, Hotel, and Broadway tickets. How lucky is that??? Actually I chalk it up as talent. Check out his video if you want a good laugh. I guess that is why he is studying film and advertising. Way to go Creighty. You totally rock, and while I'm a bit jealous, I am totally excited for you! You are amazing and incredibly talented. I am glad that you are my brother and I hope you have fun! Congratulations.

My Day!!!

Hey does this look familiar or what? My dad pointed this comic out to me today and I thought that it was totally funny and totally my life. I just laughed. Too true.

You color my world!

Rylan and Alana, I just want you to know that You Color My World! You are both my world. I don't know what life would be like without you anymore. However, I didn't know that you would litterally color my world, by coloring on yourselves!!!!

At first I thought that it was just Alana that had colored on herself, but a few minutes later I found out Rylan was also! It was pretty funny, thankfully it was just on them (where it can be washed off), but who left a pen out???? This is just one of the funny things that adds so much fun and color to my world on a daily basis. Like I said before...YOU COLOR MY WORLD!

And so it begins...

I have always heard that girls are more dramatic than boys, but until I had one of my own it didn't really sink in.

And so it begins....
This morning I was getting Alana dressed and had her outfit picked out (including matching shoes). A minute or so later I heard crying and Alana saying "shoe-shoe". She managed to get one of the matching shoes off and was carying around a new pair of shoes (that didn't match so well). She would not settle down until I put the OTHER pair of shoes on. Then she was just fine. Do you think she's a GIRL or what???? I have a feeling this is only the begining.

AND SO IT BEGINS...

Brave or Desperate?

Today I went to lunch at New Dragon Diner (one of my favorite Chinese food places). The food there is great and very inexpensive. I took my kids and they love the food there too (especially the pot stickers which they call "hot stickers"). By the time we were finished eating the table we ate on was a mess. A lady walked by and said "You are either Brave or Desperate!" I laughed and said that I thought today I must be both! I was desperate for the yummy local food and Brave to take my children!

Pearly Whites

Rylan will do almost anything to get out of going to bed. Tonight he said "We forgot to brush my teeth" the conversation continues from there....
Me: "It's ok Rylan just go to bed and we'll brush them in the morning" (Not what I would usually say but I was tired)
Rylan: "But mom, they're really dirty! Can I please brush them???!!!"
Me: "Ok, Ry come on and we will brush them."


He excitedly jumps out of bed and brushes his teeth. At that point I had to get the camera because it was too cute. I am so glad that he (and Alana too) love to brush their teeth. (Even if it is late and I am tired)! Way to go Rylan that's why you and Alana didn't have any cavities this month when you went to your very first dental apointments.

Other things that happened today...My dad spoke in church. Seeking after the truth and learning it through the Holy Ghost and Music. It was really good. My dad is a great public speaker and his talk was funny. I had several people comment and one of our friends said that he almost snorted in church because it was so funny. After church I got a nap which is rare (but much enjoyed) then we had a yummy steak dinner with oven roasted potatoes, corn on the cob, fresh cut green beans. For dessert we had Sopapilla Cheesecake. My brother Creighton came over and we all hung out. It was a nice evening.
