The Oscars

Who cares? We watched them. Big deal. The best thing about them, Jon Stewart! There was only 2 movies mentioned that I have actually seen. Enchanted and Ratatouille (tells you I'm a mommy eh?) I would like to see Juno though. It's hard to get into it when all 5 movies for Best Picture are Rated R and on average 4 out of 5 nominated for Best Actor and Actress are from R rated movies. It's just not interesting when you don't have a clue. That's me. I guess...I'm clueless.

American Idol

Is anyone else watching America Idol? What is up with the talent this year? I am still waiting to see someone who blows me away. I do like the kid from Murray. Not just because he's from Utah and LDS. That kid can SING! However, he's not the "whole package." There's not really any girls that are that great. Every time during the "Best of the Rest" stage, I wonder what the HECK the judges were thinking. Why are they picking these people and WHY DIDN'T I TRY-OUT? If this is the best they can find, I think I have a shot. Not really. I am totally kidding but wow, it's pretty bad.

At least Garrit, Amy, Joanne, and Coltin are gone.

Next week to go: Chikezie, Danny, Amanda, and Alexandrea

Week after that to go: Jason, Luke, Aliana, Kady

This stage in the show reminds me of walking past the karaoke bar in Las Vegas and hearing a tone-deaf drunk person singing. Best talent so far? I dunno, Kelly Clarkson and Chris Daughtry are hard to beat. Not to mention Carrie Underwood.

Does anyone watch Lost? I have a love/hate relationship with that show. What the freak is going on? Seriously????

My randomness

I liked Natalie's randomness so here's mine:

Noah and AnnaBelle have been sick for almost a week now. I am ready for that to end. Luckily Des hasn't gotten it yet.

I have the Miss Lehi Mother's Tea this weekend. I also am volunteering at Hutching's Museum on Friday. There's a lot going on and Noah thinks he's going to Saint George for the home show. He knows it's a bad weekend for me so unless he wants the "wrath," he better stay home.

Chaquita is such a cute dog. We love having her in our family. Tica is not so trilled with her joining our family.

I have watched more movies this week because of my family being sick. Here are the movies I have watched:

Failure to Launch- thumbs up
Catch and Release- thumbs kinda down
Music and Lyrics- thumbs kinda up
Hairspray- thumbs way up
Mean Girls- Ummm......my favorite movie ever! (I've seen it many times but re-watched it this weekend) Thumbs UP UP UP!
Hitch- another favorite

That's a lot of movies! Unfortunately, I am still in lock down because of the sickness that is still lurking so if you have any suggestions for movies, I'd love to hear them or even books.

Oh and, 2 weekends ago, we went to "Fool's Gold." I am just warning you, DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE! If you ignore this and see it.....I warned you! Easily in my top 5 worst movies ever (Pirates 3 is up there too. So boring!)

What happens in your day

I got this idea from my cousins blog- This is typical Tuesday and Thursday. Mon, Wed, Fri are different

What did you do today?
Desi woke up @ 7:30, now I am on the computer doing this and watching Today. AnnaBelle will wake up around 9:00. If she doesn't on her own, I will wake her up because she has pre-school at 9:15. She is really excited because it's Valentine's Day and she's giving her homemade Valentines we made last night. I will get her a quick breakfast, usually a granola bar or fruit cup today. Other days it's either a waffle, oatmeal, or hot cereal. Then she will go to school and I will wait for my sister to come over. While our girls are at school, my sister and I work. We will do something like make headbands, fill orders, or organize. I am going to the UPS store before I wake up AnnaBelle. Noah is still here so he will watch them while I go. The girls are done with school at 11:45. One of us picks them up and they come here for a while until we're done with work. I have to go to a scrapbook store today to buy blank cards to send out invitations to our Miss Lehi Pageant workshop. Then one of my voice lesson students is in a school talent show today so I may go watch depending on when it is (her mom will call me.) Then I have to make the invitations, label them, and send them. Then I teach theater today at the arts center from 4:00-6:30. Noah usually is here which is really nice that they don't have to come with me. AnnaBelle is in the show that practices from 4-5 so she comes with me and then goes home while I teach the other class from 5-6:30. After theater, it's home, dinner, and bed for the girls. Then Noah and I will probably watch our shows (Apprentice and Lost tonight) and then it's bed around 11:00. I will let you know if something changes. :)
-Now I want to know what you do during the day

Birthday pics and Chaquita

Here are some pictures of Desi's birthday she had a great time playing in her cake. I have also included pictures of our new dog, Chaquita. She's such a cute dog!

AnnaBelle and her new doggies

Cutie!

Birthday girl! She dove right in!

This needs a little explanation. One day I was watching t.v. and I heard AnnaBelle talking in the bathroom. I thought that was odd that she was talking to herself and I knew she was going potty. I went in there and this is what I found. Her sitting on the toilet reading her workbook from pre-school. I asked her what she was doing and she said "I'm reading a magazine. Just like you and daddy do when you go potty." :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DESIREE AND JOHNNY!

Wow! 1 year ago, we were blessed with the sweetest baby ever! My emotions are running a little high right now. I can't believe that my sweet little baby is 1 year old. It seems like just yesterday she was born. She has been one of the greatest blessings given to me. I love her so much and thank my Heavenly Father for her daily.

Oh and...Happy Birthday Johnny! Desiree came to us on his birthday. I guess she's following in her uncle's footsteps. That's where her dimples come from. Let's hope she inherets his great personality too. Maybe without crossing the line so often though. J/K!!!! Happy Birthday Bro!

Disclaimer**** I forgot to wish "the best sister in the world" Happy Birthday on the 5th. Happy Birthday Wendy. I love you and miss you so much!!!! Maybe Desi will inheret her amazingly beautiful looks because their birthdays are so close. :)

Happy Birthday Natalie!

Happy Birthday Natalie. Hope it was a good one! I was due one year ago today. AHHH! Love ya!
