If I could scream....

And if it would help me sleep I WOULD!!! Here it is nearly 3am and I am online, why?? Simply because I woke up!! An Hour ago, I looked at the clock (thinking it had to be close to time to get up!!) to see it was ONLY 2am!! WHAT!!!! This could not be happening!! I have to be at work in like 5hrs, well now 4hrs. This simply sucks! First thing I wanted was some cereal but I settled on a glass of warm milk. (mom always told me this helps!) Now here I am. I have read all of my emails, read all of the updated blogs from my fellow bloggers including this one from cjane http://www.dailymail.co.uk/you/article-1086987/Three-weeks-photo-taken-family-torn-apart.html One of these days I will learn how to add the links like cjane does, NOT TONIGHT!!! Oh, I mean NOT THIS MORNING!! Grrrrrr Anyways, now I am looking up baby names for my friend Crissy, who just found out she is due next July! She likes to have everything planned and organized, plus I guess now she has a theme for baby names. They need to end with SON or TON!! Well, most of us are predicting it is another boy, let's hope so, because there aren't alot of girls names that end in that form. She already has an Allison so therefore, all of the other names sound to much the same....they would both be awnsering, that could get aggrivating! I do however love the name Peyton, if you could get past that evil nanny movie. Ok, I AM GETTING SLEEPY NOW!! GONNA BE A LONG DAY!!!!!

To cute, not to mention...

Ok, So yesterday, after rifle siteing Mr.Alden and I went shopping for hunting gear. We first hit the resale shop for Zach a coat. We found this army coat which is perfect for him. However on the sleeves there's a piece of Velcro but no attaching piece to make the cuff tighter. Soooo, Mr. Alden puts on his thinking cap, decides to remove a piece of Velcro from one spot, where it is not needed and SEW and yes, HE SEWED this piece where he wanted it.(he took home ec) And no, I had no clue he knew how to thread a needle and sew but HE DID, with NO HELP!! WOW!! Cute thing is later he mentioned...I TOOK NO PICTURES TO BLOG!! How cute is that????(I guess I was in to much of a hurry to eat Green papaya before he went to work.)

Oh, what a SITE!!!

Yesterday morning I went rifle siteing with my Mr.Alden and my Other Mr.Alden (father n law). It was cold and LOUD! Noone told me to take ear plugs but thank goodness Dad n Law comes prepared....check out the cotton in Scotts ear..TO FUNNY!!

Setting things up....

At this point I am holding my phone with one hand and covering one ear with the other...

This was Scotts first hit!! Looks like we could of just stayed home where it was WARM!!!

Postle on the Postal service....

Ok....so I did'nt!! But I so wanted to! Remember the air fresheners I told ya'l about?? See post below!! Well, They were supposed of been delivered LAST Friday. So I called the post office today to see what's up! They tell me that the carrier remembered the package, an envelope that weighed hardly nothing, that she put it in my mailbox!! I was a bit confused on how these fit in an envelope but I have seen the ebayers ship things oddly!! But the lady continued to tell me that the carrier knew her way round, even tho later in the conversation she told me this same carrier was new!! I hung up feeling as tho I would never have my wonderful scents!! Then I arrive home hours later to find a WHITE box on my doorstep...Ha!! Yep, my envelope somehow turned into a box and just so happened grew legs and found HOME!! Just wait until tomorrow when I call this KIM!!!! Ok, so I am so thankful that my box found ME!!!

Dirty Santa Part 1

In 2wks. we will be having our clinic Christmas Party at the Barbi house. Today I did alittle shopping. I was trying to find something unique and something EVERYONE would want (including me) so I went to Kirkland's www.kirklands.comI absolutely love that store. And of course Dakota said I spent most of my time shopping there today. (can't help it!!) Well you guys will find out in Um mm 2weeks!!! =)

The BUSSTOP!!

And nope I ain't talking about a BUS stop!! Today after my mother and I took Dakota to his Dr. appt and then shopping at the mall, she and I visited the BUSTSTOP http://www.buststop.com/ Needless to say I was SHOCKED!!!!

Never have I spent more then $40 on a bra. These start at $40 and go up....way UP!! I tried on SEVERAL and fell in love with the most expensive $124 a piece. Of course they are pretty and the fit was perfect..So i guess this will be on my Christmas list. I just could'nt get myself to pay that. Altho she did tell me that after Christmas EVERYTHING in the store will be %25 OFF WOOOOHOOOOO!

Getting an early start

Presents before a tree???Every year when we put out presents we do so with NO names. This way the kids don't mess with them and accidentally tare one. HA
Well yesterday I had to start the holiday gift wrapping for one reason....so I wouldn't lose them, YES, I am capable of losing them!!!
I cannot say what I got for the simple fact Mr. Alden does read this from time to time.



*Just so you know Honey none of these packages belong to you!!! =)

Belated

Thankful Thursday! (Friday) Gosh, I was so tired last night to be thankful for anything but the pillow I rest my head, well, except I did notice one thing, THIS.....How, many men would scrub the tub?? As I went to get the bath water ready for Bethany last night, I was blinded by the shininess of our white tub. I was thinking it was the same color as the tile...LOL J/k So of course I had to call Mr.Alden at work and let him know I noticed!!!
Me: Hey Honey..
Mr. Alden: Hey...
Me: Did you scrub the tub today?? ( only obvious)
Mr. ALden: Yep
Me: Well, Thank you!!
Mr.ALden: Your welcome!!
Me:Why, am I thanking you?? It's your nasty butt scum too!! LOL
Mr.Alden: not as mush as it is Bethanys!! (He did!!, because shes usually the one that has baths)
Me: Well, it looks great! I was blinded when I opened the curtain.
Well, I will let you go...I love you!!!
Mr.Alden: I love you too!!!!
Me: *SMILES

She Spoke!!

For those of you that have noticed my button--->
I read NieNie,perhaps even gone to her blog and have been a bit confused. Start by reading this link...http://www.azcentral.com/php-bin/clicktrack/email.php/8404317 it is the beginning of a new chapter for NieNie and Mr. Neilson. A friend of mine (Crissy) told me this story back in Sept. Since then I have followed her and her sisters blog. Her sister has been reposting Nies fellow bloggers favorites!!! Her blogs go back 3 years. Amazing writers and their lives are so full of love, I envy them. The accident happened back in Aug 08' but you may view her previous blogs. They're like a novel with PICTURES!!! They are of a faith I have no knowledge of but the love they have for God and their families are just "SPECIAL!!" Once you have read her story, you will know why I am so excited...this past weekend, SHE SPOKE!!!

Totally hooked...

WOW!! Last month I purchased a Febreze Noticeable and I gotta tell ya, walking into my house smells like walking into a bakery! It smells yummy and dangerous! haha You gotta try these, they are the best thing since skittles and they last up to a month. (no joke!!) My favorite is the Autumn Harvest, which of course is limited for the holidays and need I say SOLD OUT, everywhere I went yesterday, except EBAY!! I got 4 refills on the way!! Heehee They sell at Wal-mart for around $6, a little pricey but so worth it!!!

Pretty too =0)

Just another Manic Monday

To start my day off....I had to wake 3 sleepy kids for school, (actually it was easy today) they all wanted pasta for breakfast!! Once the kiddos were off to school, I slipped back into bed next to my Mr.Alden and fell back asleep...it was cloudy and rainy out, so it was perfect! When we woke, I started cleaning house but then remembered Mr.Alden needed a haircut, so got that done.(mad at myself for no pictures) Then for payment he offered to take me to the Green Papaya for lunch. (my favorite, I couldn't pass that one up!!)

After our amazing lunch, my Mr.Alden went to work and I had to pick kids up early from school, then drive back to the Ft. to the dentist. This place is great!!! Trains, games and more games! Did I mention a t.v above every table so the kids can watch their favorite shows while getting a cleaning.

Gosh, where were these dentist when I was little?? (I threw fits, til my parents WOULDN'T take me!!) This one even the big kids love!! (notice Dakota wearing his shades?? To cute!)

It was a great day considering it was Monday, I spent it with the ones that I love most!!!! Now, dinner is out of the way and to the dishes, I am on my way!!!

I Kiss This Cook

Tonight my Mr. Alden cooked fried chicken, as I was doing the mashed potatoes and gravy! We work well as a team. And our dinner was delicious!!!!

*The peas are for Zach, they're his favorite!

OVER RATED!!!

We took the children to the movies today and seen Madagascar 2. And it is by far, a waste of money. I laughed a few times but this one had nothing on the first. I say wait until it is out on dvd ;)

History Made.......

For the past few months I have to admit I have stayed away from the news and debates. I chose to do this for one reason...LIES! Both candidates have made promises that you, I and they know are impossible to hold up. We WILL see change and I pray that it is for the good. Only time will tell! . As AMERICANS, we have to stay as one! We ARE FAMILY!!!
