We just came home from the neighbor's and watching the Clone Wars. Laurie is leaving tomorrow morning at 3 to fly to Washington D.C. but she is organized enough to invite the neighborhood over for pizza and the Clone Wars. She is crazy! I leave in 3 days and I was thinking I should be home to do laundry tonight. Brian and I went out for drinks before, I think I was hoping that would take the edge off my panic. Laurie is going by herself and doesn't have to pack for 4 people but does she have to make it look so easy? She is like my SIL Roshonne who doesn't let things like that get to her. I think I am but I also think I have some outside influences that ask too many questions and get me over thinking things. That is the way it is because I was relaxed for the Superbowl party. WOW epithany time!
So I have one more day of work before we leave for Disneyland. I really don't think I will get much done at work that day. I might have to make it a half day so I don't drive myself nuts. Tomorrow I have to make a couple of phone calls to ask some questions and make reservations for the super shuttle. Wouldn't that be horrible if we got to LAX at 9:50 pm and couldn't get to our hotel. Now I have to finish some other things before I go. Oh here is a question I pose to you. If you went to Disneyland 4 years ago would you want to see yourself in all the pictures this year wearing the same coat you wore 4 years ago? Let me know but my answer is no!

We went bowling with the Roses tonight. Brian and Jason bowled 5 games. Michelle and I bowled 3 and the kids bowled 1. So for us a family of 4 our night was only $13 for 3 hours of entertainment. Tuesday is buck night. Buck shoes and Buck games of bowling. So the men are pretty evenly matched. The kids rock with the bumpers. Jamison loves to bowl and he was second high at 76, Campbell was right behind him at 74. The last time we went bowling Jamison pulled out a 101.
But the reason I am documenting this day in the life is my pathetic attempt at bowling on this night. First game I beat Michelle by one point and we both made it over 100. Our second game Michelle beat me by 4 again both over 100. Our sad story is on the 3rd game. After the first 4 frames I had the high score of 6. Yes you read correctly 6. It shouldn't have even been this high but God was smiling on me and bounced my ball out of the gutter on two occasions to knock down the corner pin. So on this game Michelle trounced me I did not beat any of the children in scoring. I walked away with a score of 61. Just 1 more pin and I would have tied the lowest kids score but I could not pull it out. I even had a spare in the game. You guessed it I followed that with a gutter ball. Next time I am requesting bumpers too! I tried using a 10 lb ball then I went to an eight pound ball in the end to get that spare I used the 6 pound ball that Jamison had been throwing down the alley. I so hope I do better next time we go or they turn out the lights so I can say that it was one of the boys that had an off night.

Jamison's pictures turned out great. He is such a ham I knew they would. You can view them at Rachael's site. I love the orange hat one that is sideways. I now know why I have waited to take his pictures. He is growing up and I don't want to see it. The green shirt pictures make him look like a young man not my little boy. I know some things I want him to grow up on. No more diapers, I am so ready for no more diapers. The baby talk can go at any time too. The whining I would like to see go also. So yes, some areas I am ready for him to grow. But I don't want to see the hugs and kisses go. I don't want to lose the "But mommy I will miss you while you are at work" at least once a week. I like those things. Now I just have to DECIDE. Ugh too many choices and if I ask Brian he will not even like the one I LOVE.
We had our Second annual Superbowl party this year. We bought furniture the week before so almost all our neighbors would have a place to sit down by in the theater room. We watched it upstairs again this year. Toys downstairs = kids screaming and running around downstairs. Food upstairs = me upstairs. My team lost.
Last week I went to 3 Jazzercise classes. I only missed 1 5:30 a.m. class. I missed my class this morning due to headache but I did Wii fit. In the Reader's Digest it says that doing 30 min of Wii does count towards your 30/4 times week goal. Go me!
I have the pattern figured out for Campbell's quilt now I just have to find fabric. One month and I go to my quilt retreat. I can't wait. One week and I am off to 70 degree weather and a chance to see my man Mickey! I can't wait for that either.
