Family Fun

The boys have been wanting to go bowling for a while now so we went to Pinsetters on Sat. evening. The boys had so much fun. At first they would let us help push the ball down the lane and then after they got the hang of it they would do it themselves. The top speed for the boys was 1.4 miles! The top bowler of the night was me partly b/c Brian was more interested in his speed than knocking down pins. He would say Okay this is going to be over 25 miles. I love the pic that I took with him concentrating on his form and speed, too cute! We had a great time and enjoyed family night!

The winner is.....................

MELISSA!!!!!!!!!!! I will be sending this along with the rest of your package! LOL! Brian and I laughed so hard when we pulled her name. As her Christmas box is STILL sitting on my dresser. I promise I will get this out before next Friday.

Weekend events

I have blog candy and no camera. The house is completely cleaned and I can't find my camera! That is so frustrating!

We had Mile's 3rd birthday party yesterday and we all had a great time! I really enjoyed seeing all of our families. I have the cutest pics but can't load them on my blog until I find my camera, ugh.

Brian took the boys to Manhattan today so I could have some "me time" which was awesome! I took a 2 hour nap and then spent the rest of the day cleaning up from the weekend. :) Hey at least I wasn't picking up the same stuff over and over.

Have a good week!

I wish....

I was computer savvy!! I have been trying to figure out why my blog isn't updating on other people's blogs. If you see my blog information on other blogs it says I haven't updated in 7 months. Ugh. I have tried everything. Any suggestions?


BLOG CANDY COMING SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My blog is just about to hit the big 5,0000 mark! I have enjoyed this blog and am thrilled to see so many of you return to see my lil' family and creations. Be looking for more information regarding this on Friday! :)

It was too quiet

Last weekend Brian and I wanted some mommy, daddy time after the boys woke up. It was around 7am on Sat. morning and I told Brian to turn on cartoons and give them each a bowl of Lucky Charms. The boys were being fantastic, no whining, no knocking, no fighting. We had a relaxing hour of peace, so we thought!! When I went to the living room I found choc. kiss wrappers everywhere, 2 yogurt containers, 2 yogurt tubes, and a pile of Lucky Charms on my couch. Miles was mumbling something about marshmallows and I was thinking we don't have any?! Oh yes we did, they were in the box of Lucky Charms. I went over to the mound of cereal and realized the boys had eaten ALL the marshmallows!! Brian and I couldn't believe it. Miles was running over b/c he didn't want me to throw them away and was grabbing fistfuls of cereal and then just decided to face plant so he could get a couple more bites before I threw it away.

Peaceful hour turned into cleaning for 30 min!
