Just Lovely!

So I think I owe you all an apology. I have been neglecting my blog for two maybe three months now, and I think it's time I catch up.

I started a new job working for Paul Mitchell. I absolutely love it!!!! I don't think I could ask for a better job. They have a culture there called, "Be Nice or Else!" It is amazing how positive everyone is there!

Angel is doing really well! We have gotten her food allergies under control! Her ADHD has mysteriously calmed down, and she made honor roll on her report card! I am so proud!

Renee is definitely growing into her own skin. Her personality is becoming more and more like Lee's every day. Her little smile lights my morning every day, and the way she bugs Angel has jealous little sister written all over it.

Lee is... well Lee. He is still the Negative Nelly of the family, and I still can't seem to do things right for him, but now I look at it as... who really gives a fuck anyway?! :)

All is good in my world. I don't think I could ask for more right now.

I will do my best to keep better track of time and update my blog more often!

We went to the Zoo!

Right before school started back I decided to take the girls to the zoo. It was Renee's first time, but Angel has been several times before. We had so much fun! It was really hot though. I got some great pictures, I think my favorite is the first 2 of the tigers napping.

About Florida...

I'm sorry I have not been posting. Things have been crazy. On to todays subject... Florida!

When we go on Vacation we usually go to Destin. The beaches are beautiful, the water is a gorgeous emerald color and the atmosphere is so relaxing.

Our first night there we walked along the beach, went out to eat and listened to the waves hit the beach... it felt magical.

The next morning we spent the day with Christina and her hubby Benjamen. We all had a great day!

Day two: We wake at five am to hear Renee crying. She was running fever and shivering. The poor baby was sooo sick. Sadly my first thought was* damn it there goes my vacation.* (Lets face it... the baby is going to get better it's just a fever).

That day Lee and I tried to alternate who stayed in the room with Renee and who took Angel out to play.

All in all I guess it could have been worse/better. On the last day Renee was fine and ready to play in the ocean... sadly we had to leave.

Awwww!

We had so much fun!

I'll Be Back

Yes I know... I've been missing.

Yard sale Drama


I promise to start back in another day or so....

Literal Beach Bum

Apparently we have enough money to take a vacation. I am still a little confused by this, but... I'll take it. My husband is somehow saying we have enough cash for a mini vacation in the North West Florida Gulf. I am not even going to start questioning it. I'm going to be happy that I'm being released from the crazy house for a while.

There is something kind of funny about all of this though! My best friend Christina on Vacation in the very same area we are going! I am excited about this, but my husband... not so much. Then there is my husbands best friend Anthony... this is the funniest part! Christina said something to Anthony about riding down to Florida with Lee, the girls and me. Anthony thought it was a good Idea, got the time off work and is coming down too. Oh wait it gets better! Anthony can't afford his own room; he'll be paying us to stay with us.

Lee is pissed about all of this. He keeps asking me, "Do you really want to go on vacation and see the people we are trying to get away from?"

I told Lee, "This is your vacation, it's just a change in scenery for me, so it's whatever you want to do."

What Lee doesn't understand is, those people he is trying to get away from are the same ones who keep me sane while he's off busy being a DICK.

:) Karma! :) I'm glad we are going! The baby has never seen the beach, and Angel and I miss the beach! We are only staying for four days, but I'm sure it will be nice!
