Hello all~
Its been awhile since I last blogged... well since Friday... what a weekend of FUN!!!! Friday was Jer's birthday so him and I went out for supper and to a movie, we saw "SLEVIN", it was ok... not my kind of movie but it was overall ok, least it wasn't SCI FI like I expected :) and then we went for supper at The Olive Garden... believe it or not, it was Jer's idea... I was shocked... anyhow so I decided to surprise him with "the whole cake and singing stunt" it was great... his face was red with such shock... ha ha Jer gotcha!!! After supper, he wanted to check out the poker and see if he could get in to play and he couldn't ... so getting 'old' we are we came home... yep came home. Saturday comes... and is gone as well, Jer took the boys swimming, I went to get my hair done and then off to the house, dad said that he would help me get things cleaned up so I took him up on the offer and we got alot accomplished, the yard doesn't look so bad full of JUNK, if we just get the trees out of the yard that would help zillions too... but in time that will happen, so the day went on I got somethings accomplished and Jer worked most of the afternoon, boys played outside until ??? it was SO SO nice out, about 4ish Jer headed into Dubuque with Billy to play some poker since he didn't get to play on his bday... so he called in and put his name on the list, so he GOT to play... he even WON ... that's exciting! So then its time for me to leave, I rode in with the Staners... quite the ride :) couple's debation... quite entertaining I would say :) We arrive at Houlihans where I arranged for a bunch of Jer's friends and well my family to come for supper, It was a nice time!!! It worked out very well, then sure enough Billy pulls a "fast one" and foots the bill... it was very very nice of him but not necessary at ALL!!! it will be forever remembered but hey... paybacks are HELL!!!
After supper, we hit Miquel's for Jer's latte', everyone joined us there... then we were off to the LUX CLUB for a night of FUN :)
Sure enough when we pull up... ( I rode with Mel) We park next to Lisa and Kevin's car... and sure was funny because those two little shits said they weren't coming... it was such a NICE SURPRISE!!!!!!!!! Thanks for coming!!!! What a night of dancing and drinking and very good laughs!! I sure enjoyed the night, it was great being with the people who we love and care about, and took the time to come for Jer's bday. Thank you all for coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kev, thanks for the dances and ha... the little ice fight we had going. Lisa, Naomi and Madonna it was GREAT dancing with you !!!!
Sunday... well I slept in like LATE... WOW! Then we all got up and running full energy :) the weather was beautiful out, Kevin and Lisa invited us to go on a pinic and drive with them... they got their convertable out and the two older boys got to ride with them... they were in HEAVEN :) Mitchel infacted wondered if he could get a ride in it today... was cute ... so well we were going to go to a park and by the time we had gotten there... the wind had picked up a bunch, so we bailed and went to CICI'S... (in DBQ), kids were happy so that was all that mattered... we took them off to the golf range for awhile... sure was cute watching Blade try to maser this HUGE golf club... at one point he did a complete 360 trying to hit the ball, couldn't help but to laugh at times, then we went driving around some more to show Kev and Lisa a few neat spots in DBQ, then we went to the park out by McGraw Hill's new building... Blade was SO SO happy since he kept saying "go to park"... like a zillion times... sure was cute listening to him :) after the park, Jer had to run to Best Buy to get something for his laptop... before our Cancun trip, then off for home for the night, we watched some tv and then I crashed on the couch like at 10ish... slept until 7ish... IT WAS SO NICE... and Blade didn't come cuddling in until early this am... so a good night of sleep did me well!!!!
Today... what a beautiful day!!!!!!!!!!!! I shipped more of my candles off from the store this am... then got a quick walk in, talked on the phone for a bit... almost 99% sure the store front is rented, it will be confirmed this weekend, so it a bit of a relief but also still bittersweet, but I am very excited for what may come :) I am more settle with the idea now and I know its for the best, I just felt bad as I was talking to the gal who is a potential renter for us, she was saying how people "talk" I just hate people who act nice to your face and talk behind your back... THIS TOWN is full of them... its sad... hope someday it all comes back to them... I'm not a judgmental person and not a "gossiper"... so it just really bugs me when people in this town act like good christians but "dont act" like it sometimes!!!! Anyhow then I was off the phone.. on the phone... phone kept ringing this am... so then later I took Jer into work and did some shopping for Cancun clothing for Jer and other misc. things... I had no luck really finding things for me... I was looking for shorts, and these days... THEY ARE SHORT, SHORT!!!! its pathetic!!!!! So on a hunt for shorts that are decent for my age!!!! Then I went to tan before I came home... I thought I would try a new bed... well again... I GET FRIED!!!! :( Tonight Blade and I went for a walk, and we kept walking since he didn't want to come back home... so we walked prolly an hour and a 1/2... then I finally convinced him that we will go eat supper and then go for another walk... he was ok with that but he immediately said when we got in the door... "lets eat"... just too cute!!!!!!!!! Walked to Subway for supper and came home for " Prison Break" and "24"... AWESOME tonight!!!!!!!!!! two of my favorite shows... and I have several, not much else happened tonight... I will be up all night doing laundry :( a job that never ends with 3 boys :)

Until I blog again... enjoy cute phrases from kids :)
(Blade's new one is " OH MY GOD" with his hands on his cheeks)
