So todays blog will be mostly about Slade just because he was so dang funny today.


I was sitting in the living room and slade yells in to me and says "Don't throw away my stuff in the fridge mom OK". Now after 
a few minutes I began to wonder what the heck I'm not suppose to throw away. So I went to the fridge and this is what I saw! Snow balls or slush balls more like it.



They were all over. 
Yes my fridge is full but give 
me a break there is 6 of us around 
here. So anyway we compromised I gave him a bowl to keep them in and a few hours latter I went and dumped out the water.







This is a picture Slade colored today! He was so proud of it.

























 These are all poses Slade made me take of him with his picture I still have about 4 more on my camera. These are the ones I liked the most though.

So hello to all today. I seem to be in a good mood today because today is thursday and that means tomorrow is friday then the weekend ( I know but really I don't have much more to look forward to).

So this weekend we celebrated Steven's Birthday that is really tomorrow but anyhow this is what he did to celebrate. He painted the deck! Now I'm not complaining I just wished he got a little more excited about his birthday. When I told him we should celebrate it all he said was " Oh when is my birthday. HMMM I would have forgot about that if you hadn't reminded me." Every time I asked what he wanted for dinner or desert I would get " I don't know". 




So this is what I made. It was a new recipe I got off of  www.kraftfoods.com I love that web site Anytime I need a recipe for dinner I just get on there and type in what ingredients I do have and it will pull up a ton of recipes. 
This was a strawberry shortcake cheesecake. Yummy!





This is what the boys did while steven painted the deck. They made tents with my blankets.







This is rachel In her DIRTY room. Smiling when she thinks this is just a fun photo!








This is rachel glaring at me when I told her I was going to post this on my blog! I hope she doesn't see this. lol





So this was my weekend! It was fun non the less. As for my           monday I had 7 kids in my house from 6am till 4 pm need I say more!

So here is my best idea for lazy mom's (like me sometimes) who want fresh baked cinnamon rolls but don't want to make dough and wait for it to raise. I bought yesterday a bag of rhodes bake and serve bread I put 2 loaves on a greased plate covered in the fridge last night. This  morning I pulled them out of the fridge rolled them out put butter, cinnamon, and sugar on them rolled them up let them raise and baked them! Poof  cinnamon rolls and yummy home baked taste too!
Enjoy! mmmmmmmm
ps..... be sure to cook at temp. on bag but for only 15-18 min

This was the banner my kids made for us. We walked in and they were so proud. Im just a little slow getting this one on.
So yesterday I put a blueberry cheesecake scentsy  in my burner and when steven got home he thought I had made cupcakes. He was so excited and not happy when I told him I didn't have any. So he just called me and told me since I had fooled him I now have to make him some real cupcakes! It's a good thing I love him so darn much. So I will make him some filled cupcakes today.  I am so excited for sat. I am going to BBQ in the backyard. :} Well ttfn ( how many of you know many of you know what that means!)

So I have started the new Annette Lyon Book and I can't remember the name right now. I left the book out in my car so I will add the name latter. So far it's really good I will keep you updated. But if you have read any of her temple series you know how great her books are . They are so filled with romance (yes i'm a sucker for it) and history of the church and the first four temples in utah. "House on the hill" is my favorite!!!!  How great are books. A book lets you escape to some where, Travel back in time, Learn,  or be inspired. I am someone who truly appreciates a good book. I have many books and have read them all. I love to buy books but only If I truly love the book and only if I can get it for a good deal ( yep i'm cheap) lol! I read read most of my books at least 2-3 times each with the exception of "House on the hill" that one I have read at least 15 times. I love romance with lds history in it. Annette Lyon and Jennie Hansen are my fav's. 
So my  advice for today is let the housework wait an hour and sit down with a good book.   :)

Hello all!  We have returned from Vegas a little tired but we had a great time. Well that was 4 days of alot of walking, laughing, and great times. I think we walked at least 10 miles so by the end of each night we were a little sore. This is a photo of us at Caesars Palace by this point on friday we had walked so far that we got slushies and just sat for an hour resting our legs. 




                                                                                   
So this is me and Tim Mcgraw! Ok so what if he is wax.  This is at Madame Tussauos. It was crazy some of those Wax people looked so real!                         
                                              








This is Steven and Julia Roberts.  Cool huh!









                                       

This one was so crazy real! For those who don't know it is Richard Petty.
We just stood there 
staring. I was just waiting for him to say " Hey stop starring" lol.

                     








This is Steven in front of the Nascar for M&M's.







This was us at the Fountains at Caesars Palace.










This is the Roller coaster Steven rode at the New York New York motel and NO I did not ride! I am Terrified of Heights and that thing is High .






Well those are just a few of the photo's I took while there.  Alot of stuff we went and saw wouldn't let me take photo's. We had a great time! I think I will post one of the photo's I took at the Venetian at the top of this page. They have such great architecture there. I have alot of great stories from there. The best was the day we saw the 7" tall transvestite with boobs the size of cantaloupes and they were real! Crazy stuff in Vegas.
