I am so going to try this out when I get the nerve

So we have this ugly ugly bathroom. ( Pics later) It is so very ugly. Yellow coubters and sink etc. It has kind of been the last on the list as we have been doing a ton of outside work like porches, patios, roof, garage as well as inside living, dining room. The bath was next but hubby, being a male, is slower than I would like. I figure this may work until that time.http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf999197.tip.html
Some fo them are kind of cheesy but some look great. I have some of the enviro tex I bought for those tile board pictures and didnt use it as it was way way overdone so I just stored it away.
I really may try this when I dont have a kiddo. They can use the other bath , which by the way has lovely red/orange counters. Or I may do that one first since that bath is more of a guest potty instead. I will report back soon.

Its cold...And kids.

Thermometer reads 42 but it feels cold . Maybe I am coming down with something.?
Reminds me of oldest yesterday. She gave blood at her schools blood drive. She then called me before work and told me to call this number and give them her code and tell them NOT to use her blood? LOL. I thought OMG what could be wrong. ? She informed me that she wasnt feeling good and was afraid that her blood would kill someone. Oh the drama. I guess she thought they just took out her blood and immediately put it into someone else. I swear this kid makes things to worry about.
She told me the other day that she wanted to be grounded from the car because she hates driving and she thinks she will have a hump in her back from driving so much? Huh? I mean she drives a total of about 40 minutes a day.. Then she calle dme last night when she was about 30 min late getting home and had locked her keys into her car again. this was the 2nd time in about 3 weeks. She has a rear window that goes up all but about 1/4 inch and someone was able to get thorugh that little crack and push the unlock button. Sigh... She graduates this year so maybe she will be less scatter-brained? Maybe not.

Tree Growing in mans Lung? How is this possible~,,

"Russian media has reported that a man who complained to doctors of severe chest pains was told he had a fir tree growing inside his lung.Reports say Artyom Sidorkin, 28, from the Urals region of Russia, is believed to have inhaled a seed which then sprouted inside him.
Doctors were convinced he had cancer after he came to them complaining of agonising chest pains and coughing up blood.
An X-ray showed what was believed to be a tumour, and he was rushed to the operating theatre.
Surgeon Vladimir Kamashev from Izhevsk in the Urals was quoted as saying "We were 100% sure."
"We did X-rays and found what looked exactly like a tumour. I had seen hundreds before, so we decided on surgery."
Before removing the major part of the man's lung, the surgeon investigated the tissue taken in a biopsy.
"I thought I was hallucinating," said Dr Kamashev.
"I asked my assistant to have a look: 'Come and see this - we've got a fir tree here'."
"He nodded in shock. I blinked three times as I was sure I was seeing things."
The 2in (5cm) spruce, which was said to be touching the man's capillaries and causing severe pain, was removed.
Mr Sidorkin, now recovering after the op, said in reports: "To be honest I did not feel any foreign object inside me. But I'm just so relieved it's not cancer."
Biologists are sceptical about a plant growing inside human body.
"It is absolutely impossible for a green plant to grow from this small seed inside a man's body. In order for a plant to start growing from the seed, it needs a lot of conditions - light, then water and certain temperature," said Olga Baranova, a university professor."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY MOST HANDSOME 3 year old!

We are so in love with this boy . He is the light of our life and is nevera moment that I wonder what was I thinking. You see.. He is 3 and I am 42 so he came late in life for us. I was worried when I was pregnant with him that my other three would not accept him and feel left out. but they very much were not that way at all. He is VERY spoiled by my oldest down to the youngest and he knows how to get to them

Oh and he is so so sweet and yummy. after every present he whooped and hollered and said, "I been wanting this my WHOLE life" LOL. lOOOOOONNGG 3 years. And I mean after every gift. He was equally thrilled with the cards , I would read them to him and he would say "About Me?" LOL How cute is he?!
He informed me today that he could walk in the grocery store now in stead of riding in the cart because he was "OLD" 3 Old to be exact" Nice try cheeks but you're riding.
His chosen dinner was..... drumrolll pleaseeee,,,,,, hotdogs and popcorn. A recipe for disaster for chokers.Went over great. His Grandma and Grandpa from my side came over to sing but left after about an hour.. His cake he picked out. and it was a pretty plain cake that actually looked like it was drooping but it is the one he wanted. AND he wanted Strawberry Ice cream with a CHerry on top. He couldnt believe that is what I served him. He kept laughing and giggling and saying "I got a Cherry on top" OMG what would I do without him such a great little boy and so happy and loving.

All I could think of was driving in this snow!


We are actually thinking about going back sometime to do their snowmobiling and I think they have some sort of things going on in the summer... Wish I had been there more prepared but we enjoyed it no less..

I am so catching up...

Here is an update of the happenings of the last few weeks.

A few weeks ago me and the kids traveled about 2 .5 hours away to provo to just chill out and shop eat bad food, kind of an early mini spring break. We stayed near some restaurants I try not to even look at or I get fat and laid up in the motel after dark swimming and watching redbox movies.

The day we were to leave it was supposed to be nice but, I seent he dark clouds rolling in and decided to cut our trip short as we have quite a drive throught he mountains to home and it is NOT good when it is storming.We got about a 1/2 hour to heber with just some sprinkles then WHAMMO it hit us like a brick wall.

 I mean snow so deep and fast I couldnt wipe fast enough and slow,1 lane traffic and of course somehow I was in front.UGHH through Daniels canyon with  my cars traction contol holding me down to about 20 mph and on a pretty good incline. I kept telling the kids to look for a pull off and go back to heber. We could not see one pull off anywhere that we could pull into it was all snowed under,So I white knuckled it to the top and the heavens had opened up and my savior stood ahead through the blizzard,Daniels Canyon lodge,

we sat there in there parking lot for a few before we realized we we nit getting out of this mess tonight and if we didnt hurry we would be sleeping in the van. So, Me in my FLIP FLOPS an d a windbreaker braved it to the doors and got a us a room,..By that time it could have been a tent just somewhere to be warm and safe for the night,They give us a room (I found later they could have given me a lower if I would have called ahead by about 60 bucks,

We drag to the room and just want to get home, The kids all have school and I have another baby at home and one loose in the world at home,

We walked into this wonderful calming room that I dont think I am ever going to leave,, My kids wer like I will live here with  you momma,

It was a beautiful lodge style room. All log beds with feather comfortors, old west decor, Really neat.The hugest tub I have ever seen LOL<> I could have satyed there. They have pool and spa and right outside that have snowmobiling, a big general store where you can pick up what you forgot and a restaurant where you can eat a little.

Gane room downstairs and a full list of dvds to rent for 1 dollar, I squealed when I found out we had a little private sitting porch or balcony. WHoosh I open the door and whoowee,,,
