Still in SLC

We left Portland on Friday for Salt Lake City
to attend my little sister's baby shower and
were supposed to return back yesterday.
So we're still here because we came on standby
tickets and the flights were all full yesterday
going back to PDX- Oregon.

Saturday- had fun cooking and prepping for
my sister's baby shower. Overall it was fun
and all her friends and family showed up.
She was pretty excited with how it turned
out and seeing everyone again. I think she's
pretty much set for a good 2 years with all
the gifts she received. After the shower,my
sisters, Mele and my older daughters went
to watch New Moon- yes, it was fun..

Sunday - Woke up feeling under the
weather but, had to go to church with my
parents and the kids. Couldn't hang in so
I came back and rested up.

I spent time with my eldest son, Ami
before we took him back up to Lehi.
He lives with my 1st cousin, Eddie &
his wife Lilly. Eddie has been a great
father figure to Ami and has been
helping him out with school and football.

We hugged and I thanked Lilly for
letting him stay with them and we
talked for a little bit. It's really hard
for me to walk away and see my son
stay with others but I my parents
said he has a good chance of getting
a better life and education by staying
with Eddie and away from his past
friends that he had.

My sisters came over to my parents
house and suggested we all go watch
New Moon again since we didn't go
with my little sister who had the baby
shower. We caught the 10:45 pm  one
and  had fun watching it all over again.
We all cried in the end when she told
Jacob that it was Edward all along...
looking forward to watching Eclipse..

Monday- Getting our things packed
and ready to head back home to
Portland. Called L's school to excuse
him since we couldn't make it home
on time for school. Spent time with
Tia talking this morning before she
went to school with Hinalei.

Nesi turns 5 this month on the 30th
and so we're celebrating her bday
here with my mom since they're both
on the same day & month. I'm going
to bake a marble cake and put up
the decorations while they're all gone
to work and school. So yeah, that's
pretty much my trip for the past
couple of days...hope your weekend
was wonderful as well.. Happy
Monday...

Kids Say The Darndest Things....

It's amazing what new things my little ones
are saying now a days. As you know, a
couple of weeks ago..we went in to see
the dentist and ended up taking out Loni's
baby molars[2] of them..Nesi stood there
and didn't even cry when they were
pulling out his teeth and the dentist was
shocked saying that these two were
different from his other little patients..I
said..lol..you don't know..these two are
die hards..

so this evening at home we're getting
ready to retire for the evening when
I hear the 4 year old [Nesi] saying to
Loni [the 6 yr. old].

Nesi: did you put your teeth under
the pillow?

Loni: yes, leave me alone. I need to
sleep so the tooth fairy can bring me
a dollar for my tooth.

Nesi: The tooth fairy will only come
and take your good teeth. If your
teeth stink and don't look good she
will not take it and you'll have no $.

I started laughing so hard from the
hallway and heard Loni asking her
how does she know his teeth stinks
and she said that she smelled it
already.. geez..these kids are too
much sometimes.

Watching New Moon as a Church Activity?



As most of you know, I'm a second counselor
in our ward's Young Women Presidency and
I teach the Beehive class. After our lesson we
we had discussed our combined YW activity
for this month, yes, you guessed right.

The girls want to go as a whole to watch New
Moon the night it comes out. I'm okay going to
watch it on my own. But have a bad feeling
the parents might not be so happy about it.

Our YW Pres. thinks it's okay also..but thinks
it would be suitable only for the Laurels since
they're over the PG-13 requirements and on
their own time.

What are your thoughts on this? I really want
to go and watch it with my girlfriends, but feel
as if I'm on shaky ground with this subject and
taking our YW to watch it.

So I told my Beehives to deccide on an activity
just for our class only and they prefer to just
bake cookies for the firefighters in the
neighborhood for the beehives class activity.
Good enough for me..lol..

My Theta Mom Thursday




Okay, so I've finally gotten a chance to get
my 4 year old to bed and get back to blogging.
Lately I've just been feelin really tired and
just want to get the relaxing part.

But with the kids being sick these past few
days it's been hard and  I  did decide to
join AVON and become a sales represen
tative while still caring for my young ones at
home.

I got interviewed by Barbara last Saturday
morning and filled out my application to
start with them. I'm pretty excited and just
hope for the best..I'm expecting 100
brochures in the morning.. and my friend
Kathleen gave me all her leftover supplies
from her AVON Leadership stuff to use:)

I found out on Tuesday night that I am
now an AVON sales rep and hope to
work my way up to leadership. I am
really looking forward to what's ahead
and passing out those brochures.

with that said, I'm going to and relax
with a $7.50 double dvd box I grabbed
at Walmart this evening. I've never watched
Joe Black before..heard it's good..

How was your Theta Mom Thursday?
Head over there to see what other moms
are doing.
