We survived...

just for the curious....we survived the weekend with Hobie. He actually mellowed out, I took away the pillow for the weekend, and we found a way to keep him occupied without tearing up everything in sight. The boys were actually sad to see him go home yesterday. Sorry Hobie....it was fun while it lasted....

So, here's what else is goin' on...

it's 8:24 PM on Tuesday night, Donald is asleep in our chair, DJ is watching the All-Star game and loving every minute of it, Benny is trying to master Guitar Hero (super fun-I played it for the first time tonight!), Taylor is at worship team rehearsal at church and I'm supposed to be finishing up dinner. I know, I'm a great mom...you don't have to tell me. We went to Disneyland today-yeah! It wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be, most of the rides were 10 minute waits, and we got to ride just about everything we wanted. It was very hot though. But the kids and I had fun. We also had giant ice cream cones at about 5 PM, if you wondering why I'm getting around to dinner now-Donald's the only one who's hungry. When I wake him up to tell him that I made croissant pizzas, he won't be thrilled, but he'll eat them, because it's what I made. Ahhhhhh, what a life.

Tomorrow, I'm tutoring, then running to Costco, grocery store, and Trader Joes. Then, we're packing up for....Arizona! Yep, we're trecking across the desert to go visit Cath and the boys. We're leaving on Thursday and staying till Monday and I'm sooooooo excited! (Should I mention that she's been out here for the last 2 weeks and we're driving out together? That'll be fun, too!). First though, tomorrow night we're working the Journey concert! I LOVE JOURNEY!!!!!!! It'll be fun and with any luck we'll make enough money to pay for our gas for our trip! Keep your fingers crossed!

So, that's whats up in my little world....how bout yours? Anything exciting? Love to hear about it! See ya!

one dog, one pillow, my house....


ok, so we're dog-sitting mom's adorable little dachsund, Hobie, while they're in Laughlin for the weekend. I was NOT in favor of this, but mom talked me in to it, so I brought Hobie over...This is what my house looked like before the dog came out of the carrier...




This is Hobie...looks cute, loveable, and peaceful, right?

This is the dog's pillow-cute, soft, little fluffy thing that the dog wants to sleep on, right?


Wrong...way wrong...turns out the dog like to destroy his comfy pillow...

He's just getting started....






The end result!!!!!
...and to think, Mom promised she talked to the dog and said he would behave!! Unbelievable! Needless to say, the dog was put to bed for the night...we'll see what tomorrow holds! AAARRRGGGHHHHH!
