What can I say? I love it!

I'm re-reading the Twilight series... yet again. I finished Twilight the other day and I'm pretty much 3/4 done with New Moon, I will say I didn't let New Moon get me this time... I did cry! I'm so proud of myself, ha! I just love these books and I cannot get enough of them.

good times sometimes equal owie...

had a fabulous night last night with the neighbors and our "fake fire" drank a lil too much Coronita's but it's all good, was worth it, hehehehe. I plan on spending most of today indoors and hydrating! Thanks again Tiffany and Jen ;)

not always a good day.

people seem to think i'm always upbeat, and yes for the more part I am but sometimes I just have crappy days. Like yesterday. yesterday should've never happened. it was just an all around crap day.

Almost the weekend!

It's been a long week. I guess that's what happens after you have a whole week OFF! I've been drowning in meetings all week, but it's something that needs to be done. In my ever growing need to control the world I like to be involved in as much as I can, it's a fault of mine.

Some of you know I am playing softball again, and we start our games next week. I am very excited to play! Our lovely team "Mercy Rule" is made up of fabulous spouses from Fort Jackson. Pictures will come soon. So everyone say a prayer for us that we don't get our faces bashed in... "NOT IN THE FACE"

Ariana started extra reading help on Monday and already I notice a huge difference. makes me wonder if she really needs it or was just looking for the extra attention? Turdy. Angelo is doing well with school too. Angelo is doing great in school too! He is getting better with tracing his name and LOVES to be on the computer.

Happy Easter!

I hope everyone had a wonderful day! I know the kids did!!

This is Amazing!!!

The visiting rainbow.

we have a rainbow that comes to visit our house, Angelo gets super excited when it shows up! Here is a picture of him with his "friend"

emotion's running high?

I cried twice today. Which is odd for me. First my very bestest friend in the whole wide word sent me a very heart felt birthday wish! And yes I'm going to share it!

i just wanted you to know that i wish you the happiest 30th birthday a girl has ever had. You are a remarkable person and the best friend I have ever known. You are a gift to everyone you meet. Thank you for sticking around in my life even though I'm certain I don't really deserve it. I wish you much love on your special day. Welcome to Decade # 3, its been lonely here without you.

All my love to the best girl I know.

I tell you what.... I'm super lucky! Then my wonderful husband surprised me with some gifts! He got me a DS lite with Brain age 1 & 2 and a new guitar for guitar hero AND..... DA DA DA DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA........ GUITAR HERO METALLICA!! OH YES! So very excited. He also had a very sweet card that yet again made me cry!!!! I guess turning 30 ain't so bad with you are surrounded by the best people anyone could ask for :)

something cute to look at

Too funny! My fellow MN friend Mindy posted a video of her lil guy getting tickled and I took this video of Angelo today of him Tickleing me! ENJOY!

more of a rant.

so on tuesday I forked over a nice hunk o'change to Midas for 4 new tires, balance, allignment, oil change, new air filter... yah fun times. Well this morning my Check Engine light popped on... SAY WHAT? This better not be a sign of more things to come! I finally have a vehicle that I will keep forever, previously I would be turning this in for a new one about this time... but I'm not. I'm keeping this van. It's perfect for us! But anyways... not thrilled at the present condition. Dear ole dad told me to check a couple things and if they were ok I was not in too much trouble and he could probably check it for me when I come to VA next week. WHEW! Thank goodness for him!!!

Other than that.. I'm enjoying my last few days before I hit 3-0 YIKES. No plans, Wayne actually has a 3 day weekend, almost unheard of here! This is our first 3 day since we got here! For those non-military peeps who read, with Wayne being a Drill Sergeant you work 7 days a week. There is no such thing as a weekend. Granted we get some days off here and there, but 3 in a row??? WOAH. Not sure what to do or think! ha ha. So I plan to enjoy it with the kids! They will be THRILLED!!!!!!!!
