This is my cute little peanut.

with a pony tail



aftermath of pony tail...sans dreadlocks


getting ready for her first (and hopefully ONLY) buzz!


post buzz!


and she's been giving me this stink eye ever since!

I hope she forgives me someday! Maybe she'll smile again tomorrow!

Tooele, anyone??

What do you get when you cross...

some awesome cowgirl boots



with some nice wall bangs?


I'm so sad that her hair blends in with the background. But, I'm serious, this was quite the bang wall!

One SWEET lookin 5 year old, 20 years too late!



Oh, to be so hip again...

Beach!

I know it's a little early to be laying around at the beach, but that didn't stop us from visiting it!



After preschool last week we stayed at our friends house for the day. We actually ALMOST bought a house one street over from them! Today we decided to take a short 5 minutes walk down to the beach at the end of their street. It was way fun and way cold!



We didn't last long because of the wind, but the kids had fun throwing rocks and sticks. It was nice to get out for a bit.

super agent: SUPER SPY!!

Getting ready for church today was super fun, apparently! As I was putting on my finishing touches, my kids were enjoying a creative play moment. They got these sun glasses at a birthday party yesterday, and surprisingly ALL had their own at the same time. This rarely happens on the 2nd day! Anyway, let me introduce you to the cast of characters for super agent: SUPER SPY!

We have...

LADY IN PINK

She is evil, deceitful, and mean. Can you tell? I told you, she's deceitful!

HER HENCHMAN

Apparently, he is too wicked, or sly, or too much of a servant to have an actual name. In the movie, the henchman is Tyrone. So, we'll call him Traerone! But, I kid you not, they kept telling me he is the henchman. He must be good! Heck, I'd follow him into a dark alley anyday!

super agent: AGENT SECRET

Can you tell? He is such a womanizer. Total 007 material here! And, he always saves the day. His secret agent tool?? DANCING! I couldn't be prouder.

By the end of the movie they are all friends and make chocolate milk together. The Lady in Pink decides to be a super spy and they all live happily ever after. But, on the rare occasion they run out of chocolate milk, be warned...



They still pull a mean angry face!

On Oprah!

So, I'm expecting a phone call from Oprah anyday now. I'm pretty sure she wants me on her show. Not in the 'daughter of Wanda Barzee' sort of way. (I realize this woman is on the opposite side of crazy from my parents, but I think it's funny that the 'final straw' of eating your pet bunny happened at my house too!) Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that Oprah isn't going to call because I am crazy, she is going to call because I am BRILLIANT! She is going to call because not many people would call a 3 hour trip to Costco with 4 children a 'success'. She will most likely call because of all of the phone pics that were sent to her yesterday after we were spotted looking like this...



It might not look genius to the naked eye. But, look closer...



You can hear the train whistle, can't you!?! The only thing that would make these pictures any better would be the boxes of size 4 and size 2 diapers we usually have to get. Along with a big 'ol case of wipes. This was a 'small' trip to Costco. If there had been much more, we wouldn't have been able to get it home in the car! Oh, and one other success happened at Costco...3 out of 4 children peed in the potty! Yep, that means Grady, too! woo hoo!!

I think I'm going to open an etsy shop now. All I'm going to make are cute little velcro bands that hook the carts together, for those people who don't have a willing 5 year old. It's hard work holding those carts together. I know...cause she kept telling me!! I paid her in ice cream.
