Bikini Girl

Has anyone watched American Idol? What the crap is that girl thinking? I literally want to snap my fingers and say, "Oh, no you di-innnt.." (just like a black girl) She was a little hoochie mama walking around in her itty-bitty-tiny-winy bikini and making out with Ryan Seacrest (or at least trying to). I swear, girls these days really bug the crap outa me!! No wonder guys think they can treat us like objects and put pictures of naked devil women silhouettes on their trucks(which by the way I think are the trashiest, most immature, disgusting, degrading, vile-shall I go on?- things EVER, well besides bikini girl)- look how most of us are acting! TRAMPS!

Oops...

Our ward doesn't have that many young families and so sacrament meeting is usually really quiet. Except for my kids. Of course. So, yesterday, as the sacrament is being passed and everyone is being really quiet I was just thinking hmm.. the kids aren't really doing to bad. This is kind of nice. Right then Kinsey pipes up really loud in her cute little high pitched voice, "Did ya hear that Dad? I farted!" Like he would be so proud, and she would get a high five or something. A few seconds pass... "Did ya hear that, I farted again!" All we could do is bury our bright red faces in mortification as we try to stifle our giggles.

The Parties

These pictures are in the wrong order, but you get the idea. We had Connor's birthday party at my house with our families and it turned out great. The kids just played and took turns beating down a pinata. I'm still finding the after effects in my yard.

Love that boy!!

It took Connor a minute to dig into his cake but once he did he couldn't get enough. I think he had three pieces.

We went to dinner with Trav's family for his birthday and had a great time. From the top left to right we have Marvilla, David, Heidi, DJ, Jen, Adam, Leana, Trav, moi, Tiffany, and Jason. We missed Marisa and Taylor, he was sick. Or so he says. ; )

Another Birthday Boy...Well Man (I Guess ; ) )

Travis turned 31 today!! The two most important men in my life have birthdays in the same week, it is so fun! We are going to dinner tonight so I will post pictures from that and from Connor's party later. I just wanted to tell Trav happy birthday!! I love you honey!!

Birthday Boy

Connor is one today; I can't believe how the time has flown by. Our lives have changed so much this year and things wouldn't be the same without Connor Bonnor- I'm not sure where that nick name came from but it has just stuck. We just love having him in our home and family. He is so big and so funny, always wanting to play games and constantly teasing Kinsey and I. Yes, already, I guess it's genetic. Connor is such a little snuggler. He loves to play with my hair and if he can't reach it he gets really mad. It's really funny. He is working on his walking and doing it more and more everyday. I'm expecting him to quit crawling all together by the end of the week. He's got these big dimples and chipmunk teeth that makes for the cutest little smile I've ever seen. Connor really loves chocolate. If it's in his sight he's screaming until he gets some, I guess he takes after his mom. Connor just loves Kinsey, and he lights up whenever she's around. I have found one of the joys of motherhood is watching your kids play together. It is so much fun to watch them play and laugh together. So, Connor, I love you buddy! Happy birthday!!

House pics

Ok this is for those of you who want to see pictures of the new house. I kinda feel funny posting these pictures; it's a little tacky... but you did ask.

When you walk in and turn right this is what you see; it's the hallway that leads to the master and the office.

Living room and view from front door. We're still working on decor but you get the idea.

Dining room is to the left when you walk in. Anyone know of a cheap place to get rugs? I bought some from baker bros but ended up taking them back bc it was $1800 for three rugs. Ridiculous.

This is the transition I was worried about but it turned out ok.

This is my favorite part of my house; I couldn't resist putting up a picture of my new tub.

And I promise to write about the details of my trip, Jen and Elisa, just for you!!

I have so much to catch up on... can I just skip it all and just say that we had a wonderful, excruciatingly busy, and fun holiday/move/trip to NY/everything else? There is just too much to write. I really tried and even have a half of a draft saved but can't make myself finish writing about all of the details that no one really cares about anyway. Plus, where is my camera?? Lost in the abyss of moving I suppose. So.. who wants a boring blog with no pictures? Not me. So, our trip to NY was a blast and we can't wait to go back. Christmas was wonderful with all of my family here to fill up and enliven my home. Moving was moving and now we're settled and that's that. I DO LOVE my new house. I mean I really love it, I feel really lucky. Maybe one day I'll write about the rest of the details just for my own purposes but for now I'm going to bed. At nine o'clock. What can I say?
