Some of our friends brought their little girl to Rayna's party on Saturday, and they told us that the Christmas rush has already begun. They weren't sure if it was just Veteran's Day sales or a need to get things done early, but the lots were all full and women were piling their carts HIGH in Toys r Us. We decided we're going to try and get most of ( Read more... )

I tried to get Rayna together with her friend Riley over the summer for a play-date. When we called to speak to her mother, she was initially very excited about a play-date, and agreed but then ended up calling back within an hour asking if it could be at her home instead. I didn't have a problem with that, but I wanted to bring Rayna myself just ( Read more... )

I totally forgot this when I made my entry.

Rayna and I were decorating buttons and such for her pirate themed birthday party, and I held up a button for her inspection,
"Do you like that, or should I add some jewels and stuff to it?"
Her response
"MMMMMM. Yeah, Pirates love BLING."

I'm STILL sick. I just feel like poo. I suppose I'd get better quicker if I could take a full day off, but I have too much to do ( Read more... )

I feel sooooooo bloaty and ick. I'd love to stay home and go back to sleep, but I am a good grasshopper so I will go to my kung-fu class. I seriously can't hold my eyes open....I'll probably run into a wall.

I got an A.

I missed 15 out of 122, but I earned 7 points of extra credit for identifying some really bizarre samples.

YAY!

We both had antioxidant, vitamin-rich smoothies, extra vitamins, and had managed to keep the ickies at bay. This morning I felt like I'd been hit by a truck. I suppose it might have something to do ( Read more... )

Ray got her 9th level yellow belt today! YAY FOR RAY-RAY!!!! She was so adorable to watch. She's definietly gained some composure and grace since she started taking karate, and she's much more focused. My favorite part is when she's still in "the zone" after a class and calls me SIR all night and does what I tell her.

Did you see the picture I posted yesterday? I forgot to mention that the picture is not touched up at all and hasn't got any crazy, Photoshop filters on it to make me look better, and I'm not wearing base powder. My skin just looks that good right now! Know why? JUICE. Yup. No lie. The juice is working miracles on my appearance. In fact, I'm off to ( Read more... )

I tried to update earlier today but I was on Chris's computer and I haven't got enough mana to use something that high level. All of my attempts failed ( Read more... )
