Our next house!

Last night after Friday Night Live, the girls and I decided to work on our plans for a new house. Ladies and gentlemen, here is my next house...




They say that you can tell alot about a person by what is inside their house, this is Heber's.


So what does having a horse in your house mean?? LMAO!

And last but not least is Anikas train station below!


Now for the big finale is GODZILLA the wrecking monster otherwise known as Heber!



Ice Ice Baby

I forgot we took these pictures, so I just came across them and figured I had better post them. These are actually the ones Riley took with his new camera! About 3 weeks ago, Clint had noticed these HUGE sheets of about 4 inch thick ice hanging off our rook in the backyard and tried to chip at them with the shovel. They wouldn't budge and the crap was so thick that he had a very hard time getting any off. He told us to stay out of the backyard as much as possible until it broke off. Well on a Monday night, we were sitting in the front room and we all heard this Horrendous noise outside. Clint and I looked at each other and he said "the ice." Like this sort of thing happened every day at our house! So we went outside and saw the damage.



This was the biggest chunk that had fallen off the roof right on to our BBQ grill. We are so lucky it didn't break the handle!


These are the internet and I assume phone lines that it took out. I didn't care about the phone cuz we only have cell phones anyway, and our computer had accidentally *cough Clint and Riley*Cough* downloaded a HUGE nasty virus hte previous day, so internet kind of didn't matter either. Thank heavens no one was hurt. The rest of these pictures were just of our backyard and the rest of the snow on the other part of the roof!





So snow+ice on a metal roof can = big ice!

Small Talk Six






I agree, this weeks topic is EASY PEASY! This weeks topic is 6 things that never fail to make you smile!

1. My children's laughter! (who doesn't love this? We should all have to add another but I am not! haha.

2. The sight of my husband walking in the door when I have had a particularly BAD day! All he has to say is "Hi babe!" and I grin from ear to ear!

3. When my kids wrap their grubby arms around me and say those magic words, "You are the best mom EVER!" Oh yeah, makes me want to cry.

4. New born babies always make me smile. They always remind me of the first time I held my little ones in my arms, and got to welcome them to the world. I am NOT crying... there must be something in my eyes!

5. When you have 5 minutes totally to yourself, and can think Oh yeah I am the best mom ever! Everyone needs time to themselves...

6. I have to agree with Karen on Momdot this one, I secretly get a kick out of my husband losing his temper!

Wow, like I said easy! This is a great way to spend a few quiet minutes on a Saturday! Come back next week for more small talk six!

About my days lately...

Ok so I am pregnant! Yeah so?? That really shouldn't account for these GOSH Awful mood swings, emotional crying jags, and all this other overwhelming stuff I have been feeling. I didn't have this with any of the other 3 kids, so why now on my last little angel? I seriously have been crying at anything and everything (even wheel of fortune). How lame is that? Anyone have ideas on how to cope and survive in this so called life of mine??

How many more months of this do i get to ENJOY?? I thought it was blues clues not pregnancy blues.

Riley's Birthday party

Today Riley had 5 boys over for a belated birthday party. It was supposed to be from 2-5 PM, but a couple of the boys had to ride the bus home with him, so the party started earlier than I had planned! Oh well, you gotta roll with the times right? Riley wanted a pokemon theme and so everything was pokemon. I had the bakery make him a pokemon cake with some cool characters on it, and we had pokemon trading cards all the boys got and oh what fun they had. Riley wanted two friends to spend the night, but only one could make it. They went to the movies and saw Mall Cop, while Anika, Mandy, Tara and I went to see Confessions of a shopaholic. I think a good time was had by all! I cannot believe that my boy is 11 now!
