Make It Work!

Caution: you might become very, very jealous.

I met Tim Gunn last night! He was doing a book signing and promotional work for Liz Claiborne at Scottsdale Fashion square last night and three out of four of my sisters and I got the pleasure of meeting the Mr. Fab. Let me just assure everyone that he was just as lovely and wonderfully nice as he is on Project Runway and Guide to Style. He pretty much loved us too.

Here he is doing his signature pose with me.

Giving Kelli some love.

Pretending to be the Father of Chelsea's unborn baby. Notice the interlocked fingers.

Devan requested the "prom " pose and he said he didn't know how because he never went to a prom.

We love you Tim!
Behind us in line was this Project Runway Blogger!

Happy 9th Anniversary!

First came Love.

Then came Marriage.

Then came the Babies in the Minivan.

Thanksgiving In Review

Thanksgiving is a good time.

Here all the kids had matching smiley face shirts that Presley made for everyone.

Our great tradition of all the kids making their own gingerbread house. Yummy.

Slade, Blue and Xander spending lots of time making it just so.

Last but not least, Slade in an Indian Chief costume made at Pre-K. His name was Chief Red Rain.

Thanks Thanksgiving for the Thankfulness Thank yous.

Family Faces

While this is not the most flattering pic of any of us, I love it. This shows real family life. In some really exciting news, Cruz says "I love you" now. This boy is a trickster. He pretends not to talk and then randomly shoots out i love you. I think he is just messin' with all of us, but really, who can blame him.

P.S. That awful owie on his face is just about healed up. Hooray.

Family Fun Day

We decided to take a day off from life and headed to Prescott to hang out and hike around Lynx Lake. It was perfect weather and we hiked around the entire lake. It took us like 3 hours with stops to have lessons in skipping rocks. Jason is an excellent rock skipper, if I do say so myself. Just one reason that I married him... The boys had a great time and Cruz especially enjoyed the freedom of hiking in the mud and throwing rocks in the water. When Blue was 3 he said, "throwing rocks is a boys dream." This rings true for all three of ours.

Love Letters

Blue left me this little love note on the couch before he went to bed. He was waiting for me to find it and then rushed out and gave me a big squeezy squeeze hug. It made this very long day have a perfect ending. Blue knew just what I needed.

Brothers

I just looked at this picture and thought it was so funny. This shows just how crazy my big boys are on a daily basis. They are crazy but you gotta love them.

Where's Slade?

Peek A Boo!

A Caveman Baby!

This Cavewoman and Caveman are expecting their first little Caveman Baby! I wonder if it will be a little Bam-Bam or a Pebbles?

See ya, DUMBY STUPID HEAD Cancer!

Just three of my reasons that I am really happy to announce that I am cancer free! I'm talking about the children, not the costumes.

Best of Halloween Part 2

Carving pumpkins can make you have lots of different expressions! Thanks to The Glamma Fabulous for doing this activity with them. Trust me, she's a keeper.

Best of Halloween Part 1

We had such a fun Halloween this year that I am going to have to do this in parts. You will notice Slade doing the "dead punk zombie pose" perfectly. This took alot of time practicing in the mirror. Slade and Nash giving us the classic, rock on sign. Cruz playing the part of cutest baby/toddler Donald Duck, minus the hat. Finally, Blue, Ben and Xander having fun together as all things dead.

P.S. No news yet on the results of my surgery...lets hope I'm not a gonner.
