Sun Valley Sumo Smackdown

Abbie and I went at it "Sumo" style in Sun Valley. We spent a fun weekend with Gma Nana and Gpa Ed in Sun Valley for the Bankers Convention. It was the 100 year anniversary of the Bankers Association so they celebrated with a huge carnival. Ryann and Abbie were going to wrestle, however Ryann didn't meet the height requirement, so . . . I had to take her place. Let's just say, "You don't mess with momma!" (The video is a bit long, but oh so funny.)

Finished at "Breaking Dawn"

Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4)

I finished book 4 "Breaking Dawn" yesterday! WOW! I love a book that keeps me guessing and doesn't give it all away in the first chapter. Since I don't want to spoil anything I won't keep going on. But . . . I will say that Stephenie Meyer did not let me down and I can't wait until Dec. 12th to see the movie!

Super Wedgie!


So, I started bloggin after Abbie's birthday had already past, but I thought I would share a pic of the big event. For her birthday, we took Abbie and 5 friends to the iRock climbing wall. It was a lot of fun, but it sure makes me glad that I skipped the whole "thong" craze. The wedgies from the harness were bad enough.

Happy, Sad, Happy . . .




Happy: Lia had her 12 month Dr. visit today. She is a huge (ha-ha) 18 lbs. and 27 inches long. The visit started out great and she did an awesome job showing off all of her skills (tricks) for the doctor.

Sad: However, Lia ended the appointment as a pin cushion. She had to have six shots. OUCH! It was so sad that mom gave in . . .

Happy: and let her have a dum-dum sucker on the way out. It was grape!

Look Who's 1




Yeah for Lia, she turned 1 on August 1st! Lia had a fun party with the grandparents and cousins and really soaked in all of the attention from everyone. While the rest of us dipped lots of yummy things into chocolate, she demolished and put away two cupcakes in less than a minute ... (Pretty good for a gal who only weighs 18 lbs.)
