Today is mine and John's fifth anniversary. I can't believe it's been five years already!! We don't really have anything big planned, we went out last Saturday night to celebrate early because that was the only weekend my mom was in town to keep Will. Tonight I'm going to makea fancy dinner--still not sure what--and we always watch our wedding ( Read more... )

We went to a birthday party last night, and on the way there "The Lonely Goatherd" from The Sound of Music came on my Zune. Will said, "Mommy, I love this song!" We listened to it a couple times because, really, it doesn't take much to convince me to listen to songs from The Sound of Music. ;) On our way home, Will said, "Mommy, listen to Lee Lo ( Read more... )

I just got a Zune and am getting it all set up. I flipped it over to look at the back, and it says, "Hello from Seattle" on the back! I love it!!! It's like it knows that's my home. :)

I'm so excited the summer Olympics are starting. I like them a lot better than the winter ones (John's the exact opposite). I love the swimming, diving, gymnastics. It's just so cool to see so many countries represented in one place. I'm watching the opening ceremonies, and they're just amazing. The creative portion was awe inspiring. There ( Read more... )

I was just playing around on zillow.com and looked up my house. Ugh. The estimated price on there is $118,000 LESS than we paid for it. That makes me sick. I'm going to be stuck in this shithole neighborhood FOREVER.

We better go get more guns.

Tonight is Will's last night sleeping in a crib. :( My baby boy is so big! He's spending tomorrow night at my mom's, and his new furniture is being delivered on Saturday afternoon. I'll post pics once it's all set up.

It's probably no surprise that I'm a registered Republican. Because of that I get crazy mailings every now and then from the Republican National Committee. I got one in the mail yesterday that's titled, "Republican Party Census Document." It's actually a survey on various issues (i.e. (and I quote) "Should Republicans do everything they can to ( Read more... )

Now I remember why I moved away!! I think this is the first time since I moved to Phoenix eight years ago that I haven't wanted to move back when I've come to visit Seattle. Seriously, 50 degrees and rainy in June?! When I've been here in the winter I didn't mind it because that's how winter is supposed to be, but this is a bit ridiculous. The ( Read more... )

I was out by our old house a couple weekends ago to meet some friends for dinner, and whenver I'm in the area I have to drive by the house to see what it and the neighborhood look like. I was pretty surprised to see a for sale sign in the yard! I've been checking the listing to see if there are pics posted to see what--if anythinig--they did to ( Read more... )

Our copy of Wii Fit is arriving today!!! I'm so excited to try it! Although I really don't see the point of pre-ordering it from Amazon when you don't get it the day it's released. I guess it reserves a copy for you since so many places sold out of it right away. We were pretty mad last week when we were at Costco on Wednesday, and they had a ( Read more... )
