Our "New Addition"

YAY!!! We FINALLY got a new car. A B-E-A-utiful Silver 2010 Honda Accord. I LOVE it!!! Below is J posing her little hammy self with it. So needless to say we had a FABOO Memorial Day weekend. I'll be on Cloud 9 for quite a while. =D

We also went to my cousin's house on Sunday for a bbq & had a ball. Love her so much.

Double WHOOT WHOOT!!!

I can't believe I forgot to mention in my last post that   I MET MY WEIGHT LOSS GOAL!!!  It took 10 weeks but I lost 22 lbs.  HALLELUJAH!!!  Now I move on to maintenance.  HIPPEE!!!

And the reason for the "double whoot whoot" is that   S. passed his driver's education test last night so now he can go get his permit.  It was really cute.  I didn't even know he was taking the test but J was in his room with him and they both came out with a big smile to make the announcement.  So we are that much closer to having another driver in da house.  Mixed feelings about that.  I know that he will be a good driver but recently I have witnessed some REALLY STUPID things on the road so I am more worried about the idiots that will be on the road with him.....  Oh well, my baby boy is growing up.

"I'm On That HD Flat..."

...well, I should say PLASMA!!!!  Yes, we finally did it.  We got our 60 inch Plasma TV this weekend.  OMG, can I just tell you how much I love this TV.  It is sooooo AWESOME!!!!  D. connected the Wii to it yesterday and that is just too much fun.  So we can check that off our "saving for decades" wish list. =)  Next is a new car for me (which we are pretty close too also but I will keep that on the DL until it's a little more for sure).  So that's our excitment for this weekend and hopefully soon I will post about a "new addition" to the family. =)

Happy Mother's Day...

...to all my Mom peeps out there...HAPPY HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!  We rock, don't we?  We carry them for 9 months, push something the size of a watermelon out of an opening the size of a lemon, drive carpool, kiss boo-boo's, cheer our asses off at sporting events and love them even when they piss us off.  So Mom's enjoy your day and kids BE GOOD TO YOUR MOM's!!!!  Ok all mushiness aside you HAVE to go to this blog.  I have it as one of my "Cool Blogs" but thought I would highlight it here as well because they have a special Mother's Day dedication going right now.  It's so funny.  Enjoy!!!

A Reunion...of Sorts

When I was a Senior in hs, I was a cheerleader for a local all boys hs. I instantly connected with a girl who went to a different all girls school than I. She was a Sophomore, but that summer that we made the team we were inseparable. We drifted apart a few yrs after hs & in 2006 we found each other again on Classmates.com. We don't see each other often but I got invited to a "pre-25th reunion" party for her class this past Saturday night. It was really fun. Because I didn't go to her school, it was HILARIOUS seeing people try to figure out who the hell I was. =D She & I went to dinner after & just had a great time reconnecting. Our kids are the same age so we can relate on many different levels. People drift in & out of our lives & I'm so happy she has drifted back in.

Marcel the Shell (With Shoes On)

Ok, this is kinda old but everytime I watch it, it makes me laugh.  It's sooooo silly but if it doesn't make you laugh I think it'll at least make you smile....a little....=D

Finding the Perfect Me....

...means loving all of me even....

The fact that I have the sense of humor of a 15 year old boy (fart and booger jokes abound)
The fact that I'm a girly-girl (I love pink, frills and NOT being dirty)
The fact that I don't know how to swim
The fact that I'm addicted to my DVR
The fact that I wear my heart on my sleeve (and all over my face)
The fact that you can say what you want about me but DO NOT diss my family...it won't be pretty
The fact that I want the best for my kids and will walk on hot coals to get it
The fact that I will forgive but it's hard for me to forget
The fact that I'm not perfect but..

I love unconditionally and expect the same
I am dedicated and loyal
And there's not another in world like me

What A Shock (The Voice)

I was really shocked to see that Cee-lo picked Juliet over Jamar. And I think Jamar was too. You could tell he was hurt when he hugged him (it wasn't the usual bear hug he usually gives). I had just started to think Cee-lo was the real deal but that just shocked me.

A Bike Ride & "Chimpanzees"

Well, not together. LOL I had another great weekend (yeah, it's Wednesday, I know, but I've been busy). D & I went for a great bike ride on Sunday morning from Playa Del Rey to El Porto (about 5 miles round trip). Not too far, I know, but we haven't gone for a ride since probably last August so I've gotta work back up to it. Then we took J & a friend to see "Disney's Chimpanzees" (see that's why it's called A Bike Ride & "Chimpanzees". LOL). What a wonderful movie. It's narrated by Tim Allen & is just so well done. The star, Oscar, is so stinkin' adorable I almost couldn't stand it. But it also shows the power and furociousness of these animals. A must see.
