{Silly Car}

I know it's silly but I have to say that I really like the Dodge Charger. Just do. Ever since it first came out. After the movie I went over to the Dodge dealer and took a look at a couple they have on the lot at the moment. This one has been there for a while. I was just in the mood so I stopped again. The boys didn't mind at all. It was raining so the stop what shortlived.


BUT on Tuesday I went in with my friend Nyle and we took that car for a ride. FUN CAR. We um... gave it a good test drive. It passed... it's a great car. Quick, easy to handle, red and and and... For a snappy car though it is really roomy and somewhat practical just not too practical. But still. It was fun.

Black would be my first pick and then red. This red is nice too. Too bad their is no sunroof and the windows aren't black as night or I would have just bought the dumb thing right on the spot... lol.

Anyway. Thanks Nyle it was a great time!

{Family Night Out}

Saturday night we took the kids to the movie. We also invited 2 neighbors to come along for the fun. We went to Monsters vs. Aliens at Edwards. So yeah it was a bit more to get in. But its fun for the kids to go to that huge theatre once in a while. Once I there I was faced with the 3-D decision. What the heck it would be fun. TIL THEY RANG ME UP>>> UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH WOW. Braydon asked how many bows I had to make for the movie.. I just laughed and said a FEW :) Still it was so much fun. The kids had a great time. Only Marly got tired near the end and started kicking the monsters when they seemed to get to close to her (which was ssssssssso cute and funny). The other kids laughed and had a ball. Popcorn, cute show and silly glasses = happy kids. Truthfully I laughed right out loud myself. It was a fun time!


3-D Fun With a Beefed-Up Bride and a Dumb Blob Named B.O.B.

After the show we took quick picture. This picture cracks me up. Who's kids are these? After wrestling Marly I pulled my hair back during the moving. Pay special attention to the look on Marly's face and you might see what I mean... what a stubborn little girl.



The kids have been quoting the movie ever since. Its fun how they do that now. "You got out Monstered by a girl!" or "Suck - In - B.O.B." I could go on and on with that but I won't, you get the idea.

Watch the trailer... it's a cute show!

{Spring Tease}

Everyone who knows me knows that I love winter. I love to play in the snow. I love the smell of the brisk winter air. I love watching our world turn white, makes it feel like Christmas. I LOVE SNOW AND I LOVE WINTER.




Buttttttttttttttttt when winter seems to be over and the air warms, the sun starts to play friends with us and the grass greens... I AM DONE WITH WINTER. Perhaps its my annoyance with the constant mud in my house now that I am the Mom, I don't know. Man spring is such a tease sometimes. I know, I have lived here my whole life, this happens quite often. For some reason this year it is catching me off guard to have winter storm after winter storm followed by sunshine and spring air followed by winter storm.

Always happy for the moisture. Just not loving the spring tease. Brrrr.

{Little Max}

Congratulations Neil, Cortney, Mason and Avery ~ we are excited for your family. There is nothing like a new baby. And man is he a cute one!!!






Welcome to the family little Max, we are in love with you already.

{Date Night}

We had the boys watch the girls while we went out. While we were out the Denali decided to die. Luckily Dad, Mom, Marshall, Bethany and Treyson had been to a wedding and were passing by around that time. So I caught a ride home with them. Kent stayed there waiting for Brad to come tow him and the stinking Denali. When I got home the kids were good. Braydon was up and fine to watch them while I ran into town to get Kent from the dealers shop. When we walked in this is what we found. It made us laugh. They sure do love each other. We had to snap some shots before we hauled them all to bed.

I tried to upload a video of each of them pinning a kid but it won't work. Maybe another time.

{A BUNCH AT ONCE}

Okay I posted a bunch at once. So keep scrolling down it goes on for a while. I have been a blog slacker. Sorry bout that too. :) Becca

{the Latest Marly-isms}

The other day Marly went into town really quickly to get Mommy some hangers with Grandma. In the store she wanted to push the cart. Well Marly was bumping into things and Grandma told her if she kept doing that she was going to have to help Marly push. Marly got all huffy "If you don't be nice I am not coming to your house" she announced loudly to Grandma. Well Mom trying not to laugh told her she wasn't being nice and that she better start being good in the store. Marly quickly came back with "Didn't you hear what I said? If you aren't nice I am not going to come to your house!" Marly wasn't even going to her Grandma's house that day.

On the way back home Marly was writing in her new tablet that she got at the store. Apparently the road was bumpy and she said "I just can't tolerate this any longer" as she slammed her pen down on her tablet.

Quite often when we are doing something, like picking out clothes to wear for instance, Marly will say "Well actually....." Then she proceeds to tell me or whom ever why she doesn't like that thing. Like "Well actually I don't even like yellow Grandma."

SO that brings me to yesterday ...

Marly was getting ready to get in the tub. Out of blue she says "Mom when I grow up I want to be famous". Oh really?" I said "what do you want to be? You know you can be anything you want to be when you grow up." Well she got embarrassed for a second and didn't want to talk anymore. Then she finally gave in and said "I want to be famous, I want to be Sharpe".The girl off of HS Musical... WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

That's our Marly. She keeps us on our toes for sure. Is she 4 or 14?

{St. Patrick's Day}

Today the girls wore their St. Patrick's Day bows. Marly wanted 2 green and 2 pink bows. At first I fought her and then I said "oh well, lets wear 4 bows". For dinner we had Marshall, Bethany and Treyson over for Green Eggs n Ham... with green pancakes. It was a fun dinner. Braydon was at a Pow-Wow so he had to have some when he got home later.
