Random Thoughts

Wow. Cloverfield!! Best dang movie I have seen in awhile. Wished I would have seen it in the theater! HOLY COW, it was good. I'm kinda bored, Michael is in LA tonight, so thought I would play on the computer a bit without any guilt! :) LOL. I thought, I might as well post a blog on my new blogspot with my random thoughts of the day........ :)

1. Kori has the cutest, funniest smile right now with her mouthful of teeth all different sizes and coming in at all different angles. ha! ......Permanent teeth still coming in, while other baby teeth still need to fall out. So DANG cute! I hope they all come in straight :)

2. Gwen is such a little love bug. My favorite thing is when she squeezes my leg and gives me a big LEG HUG while I am making them breakfast, and sometimes at dinner too. Sometimes it startles me because I don't even see her sneaking up behind me, I just feel this big hug on my leg! SOOOO DANG CUTE!

3. I am super excited for my weekend trip coming up to see Ami and visit with her...... Window shopping in the city...... OH and Justin might take us flying! How cool! I know the weekend is going to be over so quickly, since time flies when your having fun, but DANG, I am excited!! Honestly, I am EVEN excited for the plane trip there! You know how some people dread the plane flights? I am picturing sitting on the plane by myself, reading a book on the way..... sounds dang good to me! (as long as I pick a better book than Catcher in The Rye this time). :o)

4. Catcher In The Rye- ???? WHATEVER!! ???? LAMEST BOOK EVER, SERIOUSLY!! WHY IS THIS BOOK A CLASSIC?

5. CLOVERFIELD : WOW! DANG GOOD FLICK!!

6. Hmmm... That is about it... Yep, I think that is it for my random thoughts today. Not much coming to me now......

7. I miss Mikey :(

8. :o( Tried to call him and got voicemail :(

9. Oh well, goodnight all! More random thoughts to come later! :D

Mat's 40th Birthday! Happy Birthday Mat!

Ok, so I am starting my own blog page, envious of my older, cooler sister who already has one of her own! :) So I guess I will start with last night, which was Mat's 40th birthday bash at Morton's Steakhouse. It was awesome. We had a whole room to ourselves at the restaurant! It was great watching all the kids together just having fun. They were able to get some of their energy out and run around a little since we had a whole room to ourselves! There were 13 of us all together including the kids! What a neat night. I would say the highlight of the night was my husband in rare form! Ha. I was driving so he ordered a Martini and ONE Martini he is already tipsy... and I was talking to Wendy about what a lightweight he is when Mat ordered him a 2nd Martini! HAHA! It was hilarious. He spilled twice that night! The first time he was able to save it by catching it mid fall, so it just splashed over the brand new loaf of bread the waiter just brought out! HA..... Then, after his second Martini, he went to help Kori cut her steak and after my REPEATED warnings of her cherry drink in front of him, (maybe I should have been more worried about him using a knife in his condition), he tried to move it to the side and spilled it all over because of a "mysterious" table ledge that was in his way. LOL! Okay, so to his credit, there really WAS a ledge to blame, although it was fun teasing him about it! :o) Of course when the waiter came to clean up the mess, Michael blamed Wendy for the spill, since it was right in her spot the drink was spilled! Anyway, it was pretty funny.
Overall it was a great night and so much fun with the family. I was so proud of all the kids and they all looked so grown up in their cute little fancy outfits! What a night! HAPPY 40th birthday Mat and thanks for the great evening!!
