Where does the time go.....

I have always said that the clock is my enemy!! I simply do not know where the time goes!! 24 hours in a day has never been enough for me........
I celebrated my 44th Birthday last month and had a wonderful day! I was greeted by 25 smiling preschoolers first thing in the morning and Isabella surprised me with a balloon :o). That afternoon My Mom, Sister Gina and I went to a day spa for relaxing pedicures...thanks Joe, then all the gals had lunch at Chevy's. I spent the evening with my three favorite guys eating pizza (with candles and a happy b-day song!) and watching the Twilight Movie! My celebration continues until the end of April when I will celebrate with our entire family. My Grandpa always said make your b-day last a month, and I think it is a great idea!!

FINALLY!!!!!

So this seasons talent isn't quite what i'm used to, but here is my prediction. Tony and Michelle will win not because they are the best but because I want them to!!! Shawn and Little Kim are also fav's of mine! Cheryl and Giles are talented but not doing anything for me......

Let's Dream a Little Dream

So here are a few of my silly little dreams....What are your dreams?, post a list with or without pics on your blog and leave me a comment so I can go check them out!

I am Blessed

Tonight was our Elementary Schools Founder's Day Event. This is my last year as Anthony moves onto middle school. I have been at this school involved in PTA for 11 years. Tonight I was presented with The Golden Oak Award. This is the highest and most prestigious award given by PTA, though I am not sure I am deserving, I have poured my heart into this school and am sad leaving it behind. Each of the boys gave a speech as to why I was deserving....what an emotional night! They both did an awesome job, what they said was so heartfelt and touching. My children have had an awesome experience there as have I. I leave the PTA in very capable hands, Becky and Sylvia you two ROCK!!!! Thanks so much for the great honor!!! Joe, Joseph, Anthony, Mom, Gina and Isabella thanks so much for being there and bringing gifts!!! I am blessed :o)

Scrapblog

I have known about this site for a long time, I have just never used it.... I wanted to make something for the players on Joe's soccer teams and this was the perfect place. You can create a "digital layout" the site offers so many options! I saved my projects as a jpeg and uploaded them to costco.com to be printed. I am picking them up today hopefully they are fabulous and for under 50 cents each!! I'll let you know how they turn out after I pick them up.......

SNOW!!!

Our Family went up to Arnold, CA last weekend for a snow trip. 5 years ago I took my boys to the snow for the first time, the three of us had NEVER seen snow! We loved it and we have been back every year since! We now drag our entire family with us :o) We had NEVER seen snow actually fall from the sky until this trip! Oh it was beautiful and so much fun! *** Gotta love my outfit!! I don't usually go out in thermal undie pants but my excitement over ruled my good judgment ***

I'mmmmm Back!!!!

Well all the Twilight books are read and all the things I have neglected in reading them are now finished, updating my blog is finally happening!! Anthony's soccer team played in the Association Cup in Redding, CA. We had a really great time! The team did well, tied two games and won one! Coming in second place. Anthony scored a goal and did the usual over the top celebration!! Joe worked really hard to organize this trip for his little guys :o). I am so proud of him. He is such a great Dad and dedicated Coach. Of course Joseph was there cheering on the team. It klls him to just watch and not play...his team will have thier chance in March.

WHEW!!

Well I did it! I finished all four books in the Twilight saga in three weeks and four days!! I now patiently sit back and wait for the people around me to finish all four so we can sit for hours discussing every single aspect of the story!!

THIS IS CRAZY!!

This book took me longest to finish, probably since Monday reality set in and our schedules resumed the crazy pace we are used to. I will start the fourth and "final" book tonight. I have to say that I really strongly DISLIKE the Jacob storyline, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that the fourth book strays from that! As much as the second book had me reeling, I'm looking forward to the movie! To my niece Nicole, thanks for lending me the first three books, I bought the fourth book today and I will pass it on to you to keep when I am finished. Well three down one and one more book and a teaser left to go........

OHMYGOSH!!

Well I had no idea, I would take the title of the second book in the Twilight Series so literally!! I started reading the book Friday night at 10:30 p.m. and finished it....yes finished it Saturday at 6:30 a.m., It was the dawn of a new day!! I couldn't stop reading. I survived Saturday on two hours of sleep. I have started the third book and plan to go see the movie on Sunday, I am definitely taken with this series!!....Thanks EvE.

UNBELIEVABLE

Well I finally gave in..... Yesterday after a very long 12 hour day at work, I came home hungry, tired, and cranky!! I ate, hugged my boys, wandered around thinking I should do a load of laundry but instead picked up Twilight and started reading!! A little back story..... I first heard of the series from my GT Friend Eve, she raved about the books and soon it became the national phenomenon we all now know about. I was not at all interested in reading , even after every third person I talked to said I should! During our last trip to the GT with endless chatter of the books going on everywhere, my friend Karen said, "okay the curiosity has gotten to me I think I need to read these books". My niece Nicole (sweetest girl you'll ever meet) has read them all and loved them. She let me borrow them and Karen took Twilight on vacation with her. She returned the book yesterday and said "there is something very likable about the vampires", you've got to read it. And so as before mentioned I was exhausted from my day and I managed to only read the first TEN CHAPTERS before falling off to sleep! This morning I have read one more chapter, but really need to do that load of laundry!! So to Eve and all the other GT book reviewers.....You were right! It only took 9 chapters for me to fall for Edward :0).

Happy New Year Everyone
