1.28.09 "Daddy's Lil girl"

Ta! Da!!!!! This is me.....haven't changed much, huh?

But I just got the best e-mail from my Dad!! I just love him! SQQQQQQUEEEEEEZZZZZ!!!

This pix of me, is the age I still feel like when I talk to my Dad or around him.

I feel like I will always be 'his lil' girl'..he's fabulous, funny (umm....I wonder where I get my personality from?) and has a HUUUUUGE heart.

I love you so much Dad and gonna (not) kick your butt at fishing! Lol!!

You'll teach me right?Ha!

.1.28.09.."I'm dragging BUTT!!!!!"

Boy! I'm tired!! So it's been several days since I haven't had to get up earlier...now I'm back at work..which is really nice, could not be a housewife, by the way..no way..
Our friends have been hanging out with us and I'm a nerd and in bed at 8:00 pm on worknights...lately...10:00-10: 30...you have no idea how that effects your sleep pattern!
I've been called..old, old lady, old nag...cuz I love to go to bed early and up EARLY!! I love to wake up round 4am, and putz around in the morning...ya know; get coffee, eat breakfast, watch the news, and do a lil' laudry....
I will get use to it again, but it's funny how your body gets use to different things...I love to SLEEP!!!! Love it!! Mr. says that if it were an olympic sport..I'd win hands down.
I can sleep..in a thunderstorm, rock concert, tornado, in a car, etc... lOve it!!
But I really do need my 8 + hours each night. It's just hard..cuz sometimes I want to sit and visit w/ the Mr. and I can't cuz I gotta get to bed...
Oh well, it could be worse..he could still be in Iraq.
I will have to say that..this is the best I've slept in months....you have no idea how nice it is to have your loved one next to you..yes, snoring in ear...and knowing he's safe. And I get to come home to him at night....siiiiighhhh....love it.
So I'll just have to get use to my routine all over again. No Problem!! I can duuuuuuu it!!!! Lol!!!

.1.25.09 "Get your game face on!!"

So our sweet friends showed up!! Yea!! With game faces on and Jill and Taylor had hats on!! They looked so cute!
So I had Les put a hat on...I didn''t want her left out. I tried to give her sunglasses and she wouldn't wear them. Said she couldn't see or something..?
But so I got to hang..well, not really...they were self efficient...with the girls: Taylor and Kenz!
They were wonderful! Like they weren't even there...They both were quiet, and I played in my back room and everyone else were yellin'! Laughing! And having a good time!
Even though I didn't know what was going on the laughter made me chuckle..from the sounds of it..Les really had no idea what she was doing..Daren said he likes to play with her cuz of that...she's fun!
Jill and Nic knew what they were doing but I guess he kept changing rules on them...according to Jill! Ha!! Maybe to his advantage??? Don't know the game..
But we had a busy! Fantastic! sore....day!
Thank you guys!

.1.25.09..."Playin' in the snow!"..

I'm sooo sore, I would have blogged about this earlier, but too tired...Let me tell you about our great day!

We get up ,and head up to the Mountains with our friends whom have snowmobiles...Did I mention how early we left? Just checkin'.

So we get our food and snacks and just some redneck friends in a big king cab truck on a snowy road playin Rodeo music..the one and only Chris Ledoux!! ..The only way to travel!

So we get to our destination, unloaded, got our gear on and drove a couple miles up a trail and stopped there basically for the day and drank "Fireball" and "vodka"...very good on a cold day, with the snow and your friends...wonderful! Nothing like it!

But we played around and had a blast! We weren't cold...I don't do cold! We had real good gear...thank you US Army....they supplied Daren with most his warm gear...

But we had to get back home for our poker game that we planned with our friends Les, Jill, and Nic.

Daren was really looking forward to that!

But we had fun and Daren did wipe out....I didn't!! Ha!!!

Pictures:

Top; Daren, Mindy, and Mark

Middle picture: Me..

Bottom picture : My Daren (waving!) Ha!

But this is an extreme sport and now we are looking into getting a couple of theses machines ourselves, then jet skis for the summer!

Well, I still have horse power, just don't need hay.

.1.24.09.."Did I grow?"

Okay..so our friends Mark & Mindy asked us to go snowmobiling tomorrow morning....well, we would love to..but what about snow gear???

So Daren and I dusted off the door to one of our back closets in the spare room and we are digging through clothes like we are at the "Goodwill"...like we were experiencing our clothes all over again!!

It's great when you go through old clothes and get excited!!?? Well,..either you have a bad memory or too much crap!! You decide...

So I knew he had a pair of Carharts,..I THOUGHT I knew where mine were placed...

So I handed him his pair and we both were all excited and he wanted to immediately try them on!! (Like les w/ her false eyelashes!!! She was taking out and gonna put'em right on her face! Didn't know how, but they were going on !)

As he's pulling' them up his leg (yes, people he has clothes on underneath...) they looked awfully small,..... he gets them on, and I said " Ouch! Do those hurt? They look like they hurt?"

You know women who have camel toe????? Well, MEN can get that too and it's not attractive!!!

OUch!!

I finally yelled! "Oh those are mine!!!Ha! Ha!!!!" I was laughing so hard! He looked miserable in those things and I can't believe he got them on!

And of course he couldn't get them off fast enough so I got my pix!! Poor Daren he's always my favorite to pick on!! He's such a good sport about it!!

.1.24.09..."How does this look?" Ha! Ha!

So another session of trying on dresses! Yea!
I love these girls...they are so much fun!
See, even Kenzie is getting into it!
I think Jill won the prize ...well no, Jill and Les look horrible!! They did an awesome job of ugly dress session!
Good job ladies and Thank you for posing for the pix!
