Logan, relax, relax, lazy, lazy

Hazel at the Spa

Hazel loved taking a bath at Olivia's Grandmas house.

Who wouldn't like to watch a little "Last Comic Standing" while soaking in a warm bath just your size!!!!

We are having a great time in Logan. Brandy's parents spoil us. I think the pace at her parents is slower, at least while we are there. I really enjoy them and they treat my children just like there own grandkids. I am so blessed to have Brandy as a friend, we are having a great time!! We are going to see a horse tomorrow, the kids will love it.

Getting Ready for the Boyz to go to Costa Rica

So, Angelo and Jaxson went to Costa Rica today

to surprise his mother on her 50th birthday.

I must admit it was very difficult to let them go. I realized the last night that I hadn't ever been away from Jaxson, and I have only been away from Angelo maybe 4 nights in nearly 6 years. Here comes the panic attack. I call my Mom to console me, her response " it's genetic, I didn't ever send you to see Dennis without having a panic attack" not so reassuring. Oh, well. So, I bought the grocery store out!!! I bought every snack I thought my little boy ( and my big boy for that matter) would like.

Mom in full swing !!!!!

Well, this morning came (dread, fear, apprehension).

Well, we made it with only a few tears shed ( not only me, Angelo shed a few). I am sure they are going to have a great time.

Liam, Hazel and I are going to Logan with Brandy and kids. I think we are all going to have a great time, them more than us but I will try.

Memorial Weekend

Hazel is becoming a real person
she is so alive now. She talks and smiles all the time.
Sometimes it feels like she really understands what is going on!!
We had a fun Memorial day weekend, we played alot on the front lawn.
The boyz just love their 4-wheelers
On Monday we went to see the new Pixar movie
Over the Hedge
with my brothers, Mom, and Dad
Sunday night Andrew slept over and he and Angelo went
golfing at 7:00am Monday morning.
I am glad that Andrew is getting old enough to stay over and to golf with Angelo
He was a real help, it was nice to have him around. My kids just adore him.

Jack & the Pink Shirt

Jack our dog has a new pink shirt, he wears it all the time.
I didn't think he could look anymore like a Grandpa ( I was wrong)
Today, we went to breakfast at Golden Corral (barf) with the Smith's. We then hung out at DI where I b0ught myself a great computer monitor. It is so nice to be able to see the things I am posting.

We were supposed to be camping, or in Las Vegas both were considered for this memorial day weekend. Well, here we are hanging out at the DI ( pathetic, huh). I am trying to plan something, anything for tonight and Monday.

BBQing with the Dial's

We set up a nice little waterpark in Brandy's backyard for the kids. It was a good time, we ate and played, then the big boyz( Angelo & Jason ) played dodgeball with the kids. I think they were a little ruff, the kids loved it anyway.

Laundry Day

I

don't think it is possible for anyone to

HATE LAUNDRY

as much as I do.Today it has finally come to the end of procrastination, I have to do it. If you think those are dirty clothesyou are 100 % wrong

I actually don't hate washing the clothes, I hate folding them & putting them away.I wish this was a picture I got off the internet or something, sadly enough these are the clean clothes ( my nemesis) that I will spend the rest of my day in the company of.

Laundry Tip ( as if you want one from me, take it or leave it)

For luminous whites add a cup fo dishwasher detergent to your hot water cycle, let cycle run awhile then turn off over night or half day. Let clothes soak as long as possible. Continue cycle, clothes will be whiter I promise.
