I'm thirty and kicking

Yesterday was my 30th birthday. It was nothing special. Just a normal Sunday for me. I remember 30 as being old and that my mom wore HUGE pants. I know that sounds rude but I remmeber thinking as I folded the laundry one day that I would never wear that big of pants and I'd never be old as 30. I think at the time my mom probably was a size 9 or so and was 30 and probably looked better than she ever has, but to a kid she was old and wore big pants. Well, now I'm thirty and I wear the big pants. LOL. I don't feel much older than I did at 25 or so. Maybe a little more becuase I have given birth to a child and that definatly aged me instantly.

Oh well, I guess aging is a part of life and I only will get more beautiful, smarty and hopefully more patient as time goes on. So farwell 20's, HELLO 30's. !!!!!

Bad decision

So I wax. Do you? What do you wax? Well, I wax my body, well my eyebrows and girly mustache, not those other body parts they do in "Brazil." Any who..... Today was the day. I hadn't waxed in FOREVER and so I decided I'd take a stab at it. I have been doing my own waxing since I got married, I use to live with this wonderful girl, Jamie, and she was a professional, but I got it free. The friendly roommate discount. She did great. She would spend a good 20 min. or more and wax, pluck, and make me a new girl with definition on the brow line. Well, at first I was horrible and took forever. However, through the years and trials, I have gotten better....UNTIL today. I decided to do it at the wrong time and that was the start of a horrible ending to this sad story. Why was the timing wrong you ask? Well, Connelly was awake and getting into, on, around, and breaking EVERYTHING he could find in the bathroom. (Basically, he was eating my tampons and opening up maxi pads one by...

Sun Valley, Idaho 2021

We stayed at a cute log cabin by the path that goes from Sun Valley to Hailey. There was a huge open field where we were able to throw the ball and play with the dogs in the snow. We ate lunches out and cooked the other meals in the cabin.  Connelly got  the French dip, Nate got the Pastrami, Kate got Macaroni salad and I got the Acai bowl! This was our fourth year going to SunValley.  We love to shop at the  thrift store, Gold Mine.  We found a lamp, board games, Sorrel snow boots for kate, beanies, and Corral plates for the kitchen!! GOLD MINE! Connelly went to Bald Mountain for the first time.  He was able to ski just as fast if not as fast as me.  The ski runs there are so long.  I never took the kids because they are  so long and I thought they wouldn't last two runs.  Connelly and I did 5 runs!!  It was so fun.  Then we got the souvenir pins for Dolla...

I've still got it!!

You know when you watch those movies, and there is always that person who is still living in the past. Maybe they were a high school jock, or a cheerleader and they are still living in the time zone. They never put down the pom pom's or the football and they are living in the past? Well, that is me. I realized that this morning when I threw away my baby's poopy diaper. We have a garbage in our garage and I was too lazy to walk a few steps and so I decided to try and make a "basket." I promise you, I did make the basket. But what I did after is what I'm all hung up over today. After I made it, I felt good inside and out loud said to Connelly, "your mommy still has it." as I made a fist with my right hand and pulled it towards me with celebration. (I think I would have given myself "5" if I could do that.) What? Yes I am living in the past, I'm thinking I still have my basketball skills because I made a basket into the garbage can with a poop...
