High School Musical 3: Senior Year was released on DVD today!

I am so ashamed excited to finally have it in our posession! In fact I went out first thing this morning to Walmart to get it. Katie and I ate lunch while watching it. Brianna came home and rode her bike for a bit and then it was snack time and movie time! It’s on as I type this.

When I was watching the special feature on the DVD I teared up.

During an interview with Zac Efron on Live with Regis and Kelly, Zac stated that the mother’s of girls were more into it than the girls themselves.

Yes, I am 28 years old.

Yes, I am one of those mothers!

There is nothing wrong with this….. right?

Brian and I already exchanged gifts this morning.

I was too excited to wait until tonight. I got Brian a card of course, but I actually wrote something inside besides my name, he was impressed! The movie Facing the Giants, a coupon for an extra long back rub,  a giant Reese’s peanut butter heart, and a Valentine’s themed nightie (for ME to wear!)

Brian got me a card, which he wrote in, he’s a writer and always writes something extra! The movie Fireproof and a box of chocolates.

I need to decide on dinner. Brian said we could go out with the kids or eat in take-out after the kids are in bed.  I think I want to order in, maybe Chinese food. I’m really in the  mood for some pot stickers and spring rolls. Plus, I’m thinking Reese’s blizzards for dessert while we snuggle up together and watch a movie. And of course, sometime in the evening I will have to model his V-Day gift, (wink, wink, nod, nod)!

In honor of Valentine’s Day

Have a fantastic Valentine’s Day!

I was wondering why I was so emotional and depressed.

I did NOT want to do anything or go anywhere. I was barely getting on the computer, and I love my computer time.

When “she” showed up all the pieces came together. “She” can be such a hassle.  My hormones do NOT like to be disrupted. Now that my first post partum “Aunt Flo” has left the building, I can resume my life again!

Wahoo!

And this Saturday is Valentine’s Day, so to have “her” out of the way before then equals a double wahoo!

And in honor of Valentine’s Day I am doing another giveaway, one that I feel is highly important. So look for that soon

The highlight of my weekend was the Annual Scrap Weekend the my friend Stephanie throws. It was at church this year. I didn’t really attend last year. I hung out a bit and helped Ann-Morgan with her pages. The year before that was awesome.

This time around I didn’t even scrap.

I worked hard on Rachel’s hat and scarf, and it’s almost complete. I have the scarf to finish, but I can knock that out today. I need to get some more yarn, I ran out of the color.

I *finally* finished  the blanket for our family room! I started it forever ago and got done except for the last bit of edging. So I finished it up and weaved in all the ends! Go me! It is huge. It had to be big enough for Brian and I to share! And it’s so soft. I absolutely love it.

Friday night after getting organized, Kelly, Kendra, Michelle and I all went to see “He’s just not that into you“. Great movie, it is really funny. There were parts that were predictable, but all in all, it was just a fun movie. I recommend it for a girl’s night out! Saturday morning, we did breakfast at Bob Evan’s. My favorite meal of the whole weekend was lunch. Kelly, Kendra and I went to Max & Erma’s and I got the Tomato Mozzarella Chicken on Kelly’s reccomendation. It was fabulous. Seriously, a party in my mouth. I want to eat it again and soon! So if you are ever at a Max & Erma’s, you must try it! I got home around 10:30pm.

Brian did awesome. He even took all three kiddos to Dave and Buster’s for lunch and games. I was highly impressed!

I can’t wait until next year.

I think I might have been bit by the scrapbooking bug again. I went out and got some much needed adhesive. This is a good thing. I am way behind.

Alright, I’ve rambled on enough.

Happy Monday everyone!

A little video to commemorate the day!

This is my first time ever doing something like this. It took me forever. I fear that I am getting old. Stuff that was once so easy for me to grasp, is much harder now.
