So in a nutshell, our computer kind of crashed and it's at Data Doctors right now. It should be done soon and we should be back online including this blog. I have at least 4 things to post already but I can't do it on here (Sharrid's new laptop) because of saving pictures and all that stuff. Just wanted to let you know what happened and I will try and blog before I leave for my trip in about 5 days! First I got to get my computer back!
Sharrid could not afford to get behind in school, especially with our trip coming up so he bought a laptop with school money a few days ago. He had been planning on getting one anyway so that I could be on the family computer when I needed and so he could do his work mobile and take it on trips and stuff.
We are heading to CA to visit Grandpa James and then to Logandale for the Fair. I'll be gone an extra week with the kids for my first fundraiser in the valley, should be a great family reunion!
I have discovered that there is an ice and water place right by my apartment that has Thrifty's Ice Cream in it! I LOVE Thrifty's ice cream. My Aunt Lisa used to take me there all the time and it really is good ice cream so I have been taking the boys for a cone every once in a while.
I still have not seen New Moon! I bought it the day it came out but with biggest Loser, Project Runway, and Phx Suns games, there is pretty much something to watch every night! I have still not found the time because I refuse to watch a new movie with kids around and I don't like to stay up past eleven or so. Just waiting for the right time I guess...
I am reading a book called The Wednesday Letters. It's okay. The writing is a bit cheesy, especially the dialogue but I'm almost done with it. I will then read The Goose Girl, a book I borrowed from my sister. I am really interested in reading a book called The Help. I have seen it everywhere. If you know anything about it (NO SPOILERS) let me know, like if it's good and stuff...I broke down and bought The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. I have not read them but I don't think I'll regret buying them. They are after Goose Girl. Back to reading after a break! I'm also back to working out...just in time to go on a road trip...we'll see what happens.
We had Easter a week early because of our trip so the boys have no clue who the Easter Bunny is and I really didn't say anything about it. As far as they're concerned the baskets they got were from us. I'm okay with that. Heck, my kids don't even know what Easter is but they sure loved their baskets anyway! They both had blue baskets with green grass (a MUST) They each got a small book, Dora and that new Kalian Chinese girl show, they each got a DVD in their basket, Diego and Max & Ruby. They each got a train, James and Peter Sam, and they each got a collection of the Cars matchbox cars, meaning Lightning McQueen and crew. They have been wanting those. The only candy they got was peeps. My kids get enough candy by trying to steal mine so that's the last thing we're going to do for Easter. We do small gifts and maybe we'll do candy when they get older. Anyway that was their Easter. I spaced even taking pictures! We have an Easter Egg decorating kit still to do so Marce is looking forward to that!
Hope to be back on soon so I can do the rest of my posts. That's my little update...can't wait for our trip!

Can't wait for your computer to get fixed so you can post more. So excited for the FAIR!!!
Aren't computers like cars? Money pits!!! Hope you get up and running soon!
I didn't love Wed. Letters, which made me sad, because I loved Christmas Jars by the same author. I did love Goose Girl and bought it for Megan's easter basket. I also got the Blind Side (book) for Taylor's basket since that is his new favorite movie. We are reading the Help for book club in April. I haven't started it yet, but all reviews and feedback so far are good. And you will LOVE the Hunger games series. I guarantee it!
I've heard that The Hunger Games is a pretty good series. You['ll have to let me know what you think of it, so I can decided if I need to go and get it.
I haven't seen New Moon either. I haven't bought it, but I'm planning on renting it from redbox. Chad said he'd even watch it with me. I interested to see how good (or lame) it is. This was my least favorite book overall, but has the best ending of all four, so I'm really wanting to see it. You'll probably see it before I do, so let me know what you think.
Glad to have you back! I have read all of those books and recommend that you read Hunger games first, but be warned you will not be able to put it down. Then of course you will have to read catching fire.
Ooh, a guarantee from Christy about a book is as good as gold! I really didn't care for Wed. letters either, pretty cheesy, then it seemed really predictable but then went a different route, even a lamer one then if it were what I was predicting...a bit dissapointed, but I didn't have any standard going into it so whatever...I think I will just buy The Help...we'll see...
