Somtimes You've Gotta Call It Like You See It..

Two nights ago we were sitting in the den talking with the little girls..

Savannah was asking us what we wanted to be (when we grew up) when we were little..

I said my usual.. A mom..

Davy said, "An astronaut".. He then went on to explain how he had strikes against him: his bad eyesight, his claustrophobia.. etc..

"So," he said, "my next choice was to be a Space Scientist.."

Savannah immediately interrupted, "Oh! A nerd?"

If You Are Not a Fan of TMI, Read No Further..

It's true..

This is definitely a story involving WAAAAY too much information..

But, as I've had 2 days to think about it, I can't help but share..

Please.. Read no further if late nights and bathroom talk embarrass you/make you uncomfortable..

Saturday night, Davy and I had gone to bed..

Chelsea was laying on the couch watching television..

Quite late, Todd (Chelsea's bf) came over..

Now, these 2 definitely have late nights, but this was particularly late, even for them..

(and a very late start time - had been at a friend's house who goes into the MTC this week)

As I doze, I'm particularly mindful of Davy's snoring, especially when Todd & Chelsea are downstairs, wanting to maintain his (Davy's) dignity and not let him snore like a gravel truck with company over..

Well, at about 2:30, I woke, noticing that Davy had wandered into the bathroom..

He didn't shut any doors, not knowing anyone else was awake, since he was asleep LONG before Todd came over..

Now, in Davy's defense, I had THREE possible doors {our bedroom, our bathroom, and the one separating the toilet & shower from the rest of the bathroom} I could have shut to "dilute" the noise a bit, but in MY defense, I was also tired, and ran to the door closest to him..

REMEMBER - this was all done to "maintain Davy's dignity"..

Well, in his half-asleep state, he heard me run into the bathroom {at 2:30 am}, and in rare fashion - he turned and, well, SCREAMED LIKE A WOMAN..

I have to say, it scared me to death..

And I, in turn, scared HIM to death..

When he returned, we spent the next half-hour silent-bed-shaking-abs-burning-laughing-our-heads-off-at-eachother..

In fact, we still can't bring it up without laughing till we cry..

Even if I bring it up in say, Sunday School..

Or trying to tell the story to the girls..

Or right now for that matter..

*Chelsea says she never heard a thing.. So, I'm hoping they were dozing also??

Chels.. You'll have to let Todd read this.. See what he heard..

Really, what is my blog for, if not, number one, embarrassing my immediate family??

Just Moving Myself Up Your List..

Arrgh!!

I'm not going to go on a rant..

But now you can see I've done lots of updating..

Thanks..

Are You Ready??

K.. Our internet decided to take a vacation recently..

It has only recently returned..

THIS is the reason for the loooooonnggg time it has been since I've had a new post..

{I know I am TIRED of the Chelsea's Dances post.. How 'bout you?}

So please!! Scroll Down!! I'll be playing "Catch Up" for a while!!

Stay tuned!!

Edit: Wow! I was productive!! I'm all caught up!!

{please enjoy the 4 posts below!!}

Happy Birthday Davy-Doo!

Happy Birthday!!

Sad for us, but Davy gets to spend his birthday in Las Vegas for work..

Couldn't let him off without some old pictures..

Him. Is. Cute.

That's all I can say..

I hoped if I'd had a boy, he'd be this cute!!

Since I don't have a lot of baby pictures,

I thought it would be far more embarrassing to post an awesome

SENIOR PICTURE!!

Oh ya..

Love the bangs..

Love our amazing school colors that result in such a stylin' letterman's jacket..

Love that he probably weighed 150 in this photo..

{Yes, he lettered in 3 sports.. Baseball, Basketball, & Cross Country}

Happy Halloween!!

Yep, Halloween is ALREADY over!!

My girlies..

{my camera was dead, so sorry about the fuzzy iPhone pics..}

I was realizing this was a "Homemade Costume" year..

Yes, I made all 3 of these babys..

{hmm.. and all 3 of those babies..}

Luckily, I was not crazy enough to make all 3 of them this year..

I made the Queen of Hearts last year..

I made Alice in Wonderland in 1998!! Chelsea wore this when she was in 2nd grade!

And, I made Tinkerbell this year..

At 5:15 pm..

On Halloween..

Yes, I'm crazy..

{it was finished by 6:30!!}

So here they are!!

Savannah!!

..as the Queen of Hearts..

Adeline!!

..as Alice in Wonderland!!

Chelsea!!

..as Tinkerbell..

This is how she actually looked..

We decided this was Disneyland Tink

after she ran into the castle during

Remember Dreams Come True..

My little Halloweenies..
