Happy 21st Bday Mitch!!!

Mitchell has finally turned 21!! Hooray! We went to Lumpy's to celebrate! It was so much fun!! I had an absolute blast!! I am not a drinker so I usually just sit around and listen to people talk but this place had a great dance floor and Mitch's co-workers love to dance as much as I do so I was able to dance all night long!!!! Loves it!!!
Happy Bday TJ :)

When you're the best of friends.....!

The kids come over once in a while to play while Kim & Shawn are at work. Jase hadn't seen them in a week or so and followed Aubrey around everywhere she went that day!! Cutest thing!



We went up to Idaho a week ago and I only took one picture!!! We had such a great time there. It is so relaxing to go on vacation and not have to plan or do anything!! Love you Dad, Carolyn & Grandpa Hall!! Thanks for having us!! See you in a couple months!

Bunco!

I love my Bunco nights!!!!!
Thanks girls for all the fun :)

A day at the park!

Now that I am a stay at home mom (until I can find another job), I get to do all the things with my baby that I wanted to do!! Yesterday we played outside and blew bubbles and walked around the neighborhood! Today, we went and picked up Omy and had lunch at the park by her house. Jase had a BLAST!! He was very adventurous and once he figured out how to get up the jungle gym to go down the slide, he went over and over again! It was just adorable! He was climbing on things that a little boy who isn't quite 2 should be climbing on! He's mama's big brave boy, that's for sure!! He didn't quite like the swing, though. I sat with him on it the first time and he immediately wanted down. Then a few minutes later he walked back over to it so I put him on it by himself and after about 5 pushes, he was done :) It took me about 5 minutes of pushing to get him buckled into his car seat-he did NOT want to leave!! Don't worry, buddy...mama has plenty more time on her hands and we can go again real soon!
Going Up! Yes-he climbed this all by himself!
Hmmm...Not sure about this, mom!
Helllloooo!
Weeee!
Playing with Oma!!

Happy St Patty's Day!

ThAnK YoU!

Hello friends and family!
I wanted to say ThAnK YoU to everyone for the kind thoughts and words you have shared. It's tough to lose a job and half of your income. I have figured out a way to get through it, though, and I need everyone's help!! I have so far just been doing my Usborne business as a hobby but have decided that I am going to build my business so that I can do this full time and eventually be able to be a stay at home mom with my baby-my forever dream!!! This is where YOU come into play!
Host a party for me!! You will earn FREE books and I will earn income to help support my family! April incentives are great right now and if you put a note on here, call me or email me to let me know that you are interested in having a party, I will give you $20 in books for FREE...aside from the FREE books that you will be earning from your party sales! In tough times like this, the best things that we can do is to help educate our children so that situations cannot repeat themselves in the future. I promise you, you will not regret having a party! I absolutely LoVe these books and the more opportunities I have to share them with my friends and family, the better!
I look at the book shelf in Jase's room every night and realize that I am going to have to get another shelf soon because we have so many books! I earned most of them for FREE before I even became a consultant from the 2 parties I hosted myeself! If I can do it, so can you! Let me help you build your families library! It is definitely worth the 2 hours you will have opened your home for.
Thanks again! XOXOXO

You win some...You lose some...

Okay, so I didn't win anything.......but I did lose my job today. In fact, both my mom and I did. We worked for the same company in case some of you didn't know. It completely sucks and is completely unfair. It doesn't make sense. If they wanted to 'downsize', they should let go of the un-productive people. Jobs were always disbursed evenly and on any given day, out of the 5 coordinators, my mom and I would have at least 10-15 jobs less in our ques than the other 3 girls. Why? Because we were awesome at what we did and could solve issues or get our jobs sent in quicker than anyone else. I know that they knew that too. JERKS! They are just stupid and will realize soon enough that they made a horrible mistake.
So much for putting our tax return on our visa to pay it off. We'll be living off of it until I can find a new job which may take a while because there are no 'work from home' jobs out there for people that don't want to do customer service ALL day long. *sigh*

Family Night!

I decided that since Jase is cooped up inside the house all day while I work, he needed to get out more than when we go bowling on the weekends. So Matthew and I are going to take Jase out once a week after we get off work. Whether it be to the aquarium, the carousel at the mall and some ice cream, BounceU!, dinner at the park or classic skating (i'm excited for this one but Matthew isn't so maybe just me and Jase will have to do this one), we will go outside of the house to have fun together!
Last night we went to Hollywood Connection. Kim was there the night before for Aubrey's B-day and the kids had fun so we thought we would try it out. Let's just say this.....Jase had fun! That's all that really matters! He liked the mini golf-Matthew and I would hit the ball at the start and then Jase would run after it and grab it and place it in the hole for us!! It was really cute. He liked the carousel too-he kept saying Wheee Wheeeeeee and then Yeah!! That was pretty much it! I'm not sure if we will be visiting again anytime soon.....it wasn't the cleanest place around but all that matters is that Jase had fun!

Hole in 1 Dad!

I just LOVE this little man!

Fun Stuff!

Last Friday we were getting ready to go to Jessica & Jason's for a cousins game night and Jase wanted to be like his daddy so after I took his clothes off (to change them) he ran into the bathroom and climbed onto the counter and watched Matthew shave! It was so funny because he kept rubbing Matthew's chest, tummy and chin to feel his hair!! Yes, Jase....you could be this hairy too!! hehe
We cut Jase's hair since we had the clippers out and he stood still for about 80% of it. Matthew wanted to use the same size attachments we use to cut his hair and though I objected we did it anyways-it is shorter than I wanted but whatever! It'll grow back quickly!
Game night was super fun! We had pizza and played 3 different games. It was good to see everyone!
Saturday morning, we went to breakfast with Jessica, Jason, Jax & Joss (we wanted to go to MaCools b/c their brunch menu sounds delicious but they weren't open yet) so we went to Village Inn instead. It was still nummy! Jase couldn't get enough of my hashbrowns!
Thanks for the fun weekend guys!!!

Just like Daddy!
Joss-Mong and Matthew-she just loves him to pieces!
Jax & Jase playing toys!
Breakfast time!
