I know, I know

I'm a horrible Blogger. Life just sometimes get in the way.

Halloween was a blast! Jenna was a witch, and Tyler was a pumpkin. We did all we could to try to get him to be SpiderMan or SuperMan but nope. He wanted to be a pumpkin. They got loads and loads of candy, which will last us till next Halloween.

I wanna give a BIG shout out to my big Sista, Krista who celebrated her 32nd Birthday yesturday!!! I miss her lot's and lot's and wished we lived closer to eachother. I also want to wish my Dad a Happy 60th Birthday for tomorrow!! Wish I could be there to cook you a Birthday meal, like I do every year. It really sucks living far away from family, especially on special occasions.

I've been dreading tomorrow. Craig is having another surgery to try and fix his collar bone. He broke it last Jan 2nd while we were gone away for a few days skiing. He's been in so much pain and tomorrow the pain will start over again :( I'll tell you about the trouble he's had with it since he broke it another time. Just asking for everyone to keep him in your thoughts tomorrow.

I think that might be it for now. There's not much to talk about when you don't have a very exciting life! LOL

NKOTB!!!

So as most of us grown women who would idolize The New Kids in our teeny bopper days know, They have made a come back!!! I'm sad to say though that I haven't heard any of their new songs. But anywho! I do believe one of my first childhood friends in Gander where I grew up, Kerri Ann saw them in concert not long ago. Sorry Kerri Ann if you never and if you never, why am I thinking you did? LOL. I'm not getting mixed up with the Elton John concert, which I know you saw right? But anyways.

I want you to read what one of my friends Toni wrote about them! She recently brought her son with her to Texas this past weekend to see them. I always thought this girl was nuts, now i'm certain!!! I love her to death though! I hope you get as big of a kick reading it as I did!! You can check her post and Blog here.

Mommy and Daughter shopping night!

When Craig came home from work today me and Jenna decided to go out for a bit of Mommy/ Daughter shopping. She has been saving up her allowance and loves the Claires store, so I asked her if she wanted to go buy herself something. Seeing I had to bring my wedding band in to be checked (for warrenty) I figured I would leave it to be cleaned while we shopped.

Jenna just melts my heart. She was so cute looking at all of the little nik nak's asking how much this was and that was. She finally picked out yet another Hanna Montana thing. I told her she could buy something else if she wanted, she looked around but then realized that she was paying for this out of her own money so she was happy enough with one item. She took her wallet out of her purse (of course she had to sit on the floor to do this. lol). The lady rang her thing in and it came to only $5 something!!! It was on sale for half price!!! That's when I got excited. haha

We left and went to the Dollar store and she bought herself some funky pencils and Tyler a toy Hammer.

It was time to go get my rings (my wedding band and engagment ring are joined together). She hands them to me all sparkly clean. then she hands me another engagment ring. A very beautiful ring .................that's not mine! I could of took it! Seriously, if I had been the wrong person I could of said thank you and left with my ring and this other VERY nice ring. I'm just lucky that she hadn't given my rings to someone else. I could be ringless right now!!!

Presents.....

A few night's ago, you'll never guess what I found myself doing. Wrapping Christmas Presents! Yep, I was wrapping gifts in October. You may think that I'm eager for Christmas to arrive, nope. Not yet anyways. One thing I despise the most is wrapping gifts. It hurts my back, hurts my neck, not to mention I keep misplacing the tape or the scissors. I just don't like doing it. I end up just slapping the paper on the gifts. Every year I leave all of the wrapping to be done at one time. Not anymore! I wrap almost half of the kids gifts!!! So proud of myself! LOL. I quickly got tiered of wrapping so I put it all away for another day.

When do you wrap your gifts? As you buy? Or all at once? Do you make them all fancy?

Oh Oh! I have a little movie review for you.

I watched The "Sex and The City" movie today! The reason why I'm telling you about this movie is because I have Never watched not one episode of the show when it was being aired. I had zero interest in it. I also had no desire to watch the movie either. Today however, Craig was working and the kids were at my Mother In Laws. I was flicking through the channels and saw the movie was playing (we have satellite). I flicked it on, and got so entranced in it! It is such a good movie! I highly recommend you watch it. It's more of a chick flick though, so you boys probably won't enjoy it. I know my hubby would never watch it.

So there ya go, another blog for another day. Hope all of my Canadian readers are enjoying thier Thanks Giving weekend!!

Lookie Lookie To What Greeted Me This Morning!





SNOW! I want to crawl in a hole and stay there until Mother Nature decides that she's going to start being nicer to Newfoundland. Luckily it has since melted, but it's still freezing and the snow will come again, and again, and again, and well you get the picture. Soon we will have more snow then we know what to do with. The kids love it, but nope not me. The picture doesn't do it justice at all. My camera isn't good for taking pics for things like that. The first picture is how Tyler spend a half and hour or so. Sitting and watching.


Speaking of camera's. I would love to own a NICE camera. One that comes with different lenses and take beautiful pictures. I think it's my secret passion. Then i'd have to learn how to use it. LOL.


I spent the evening at the kitchen with my sewing machine (yes, I dragged it out of my closet. Where it's been for a few years). I cannot wait to share with you all what I was making. It is the cutest thing. I can't put a picture up here because I was making my Best Friend (Vicky) her Christmas gift! And I don't want her to see it. I also made one for her oldest daughter and am making one each for her other two beautiful daughter's. If any MomDot girls want to see just let me know and i'll post a pic on the Forum!
