I'm not gonna lie

When I slept through running and my day started with yoga yesterday, I knew I was taking steps toward a white trash Wednesday. When I then proceeded to storytime and Smiths mega sale still wearing sweats and no makeup, I realized I was there. When I saw everyone and their dog at the library and grocery store, I just hoped that everyone else realized what I'm starting to embrace: sometimes white trash Wed. is the best day of all.

What happens at Disney on Ice, stays at Disney on Ice

At least when it's in Vegas, baby!

Last week we took a little mid-week vacay and headed to Vegas with the Quarnbergs and the Stuart family for the opening night of Disney on Ice.

The show featured Cars, Little Mermaid, and Lion King, with Tinkerbell as the big shabang. Lucky for Ella. All she wanted to see was Silvermist, her favorite. And Silvermist was ALL over that. I seriously have wanted to go to Disney on Ice since I was 6 years old, so I was pretty excited too.

Due to inclement (and that's an understatement!) weather, the girls did not wear their princess dresses that we brought. Oh well, I guess we'll have to go again sometime!

And this is why we do what we do.

Birthday Girlz

My friend Kandyce and I have the same birthday; how crazy is that? We invited everyone and went to 25th and Main last Saturday to celebrate. Happy birthday to me, caprese panini. My friend Chris celebrates the anniversary of her 29th birthday every year since her 29th birthday. That means this was my last "real" birthday!!! Next year the anniversaries begin...

This place is famous for awesome cupcakes, so four of us shared so we could try more flavors. Coconut cream, you are the winner.

O.O.C.

Our bows were getting a little OUT OF CONTROL, so Bryson and I made this:

Thank you, D.I., for treasure hunts within the budget. I wish I had taken a "before" picture of that frame. Let's just say it sported a beautiful turqouise mat and watercolor that probably graced the walls of a nursing home. Tee hee.

Potato Poll

Which should we be more concerned about: Ella's tongue-pierced Mr. or Avery's mutant Mrs.?
