white trash

We have had a very busy summer.
I was hoping to relax a bit once school got out.
I don't know what I was thinking.
I am constantly on the run.
We have also had some very warm weather, although not as bad as last summer.
My kids really like to swim and really wanted a pool.
I am a mean mom and never got them a pool.
They decided that they were going to have one anyway.
Now my neighbors get to look in my back yard and see my kids playing in the storage tote.


The water is always nice and clean. The kids (probably Donovan) like to throw dirt and dog food in there.
Donovan is even quenching his thirst in this picture.
This is also good for when we forget to give the dog water days at a time.
We are definately the classiest family on the block.
I thought about marketing this idea.
The kids look like they are having a lot of fun, right?

I guess I am it

I tag Sherri and Carrie

Speaking of Johnny Depp...

This is for Carrie, so she will leave me the hell alone.

He is a fun, eccentric man.

Drinks a lot and kind of stinks but quite sexy nonetheless.

Every now and then, if you bribe him the right way, you can get him to take a bath (will not take showers).

If you don't mind the breathe and yellowish teeth, he is actually a very good kisser.

Sometimes a little too much slober but talk about passion, whoa!

I can let you borrow him every now and then if you would like.

He is getting a little antsy around here anyway, time for some change.

He doesn't really like being in one place for too long.

I hope that you can get some good use out of him.

Warning: sometimes talks with a slur, it may be difficult to understand what he is saying.

10 years!!!!!!!!

Friday, March 28, was our 10 year anniversary.
This is what we looked like back then.
Aren't we so lovely.
I actually kind of forgot for that day.
Brennan walked in the room with a huge bouquet of roses and tulips (I love tulips, notice the flowers in my bouquet). I just started laughing and said "wow, I am such a brat". We had a good laugh over it.
I luff my hubsand.
He is hot.
He used to have a lot of hair, not so much now.



this is what 10 years of marriage and 5 kids has done to him.
He is still hot.

Sweet Arianne

I almost forgot a picture of my sweet baby girl.

Mom and Brooklyn (my oldest)

My oldest daughter is my pride and joy, my headaches and frustration all rolled into one.

She makes me yell, swear, scream, stomp my feet, throw things, want to drive my car into a tree, etc. more than any of my other kids.

But she is basically a good kid and I love her.
