Courtney on Helium....

Let me translate for you;
Hey guys, it's Courtney and um, I'm not quite sure what's wrong with my voice, but oh my gosh....
(inhale, inhale)
I don't know what's wrong with my voice, but I really like this song, let's start dancing, aaahhhhh.....

Hilarious. Though, she said the Helium made her sick. I don't know if she'll try that again!

Crystal Ball

Well, Brad & I finally let Courtney go to her first dance, It was called Crystal Ball (just a winter dance) and a friend asked her to go. She tells me he's only a friend, and that the boy she likes had already asked someone about a month prior (talk about being organized!). So, she went with Ryan just as friends. He came over before the dance for us to take pictures, and for Brad to clarify that if in fact he tried to make any moves on her, or his hands went further down on the slow dances than they should, he would suffer the consequences of Brad, the dad!! LOL
By looking at the pictures, Courtney could have taken him down herself!! (don't tell her I said that!) No, really, she is beautiful, and had a really fun time. She didn't know that her mom used to work for Glamour Shots...... hence all the pix. No, just kidding. I never worked there.

Awkward...

Should I have asked him to show me some muscle?

I told them to give me some attitude. Pure craziness don't you think?!?!

This would be her showing me how'd she fall on her face at some point in the evening.

She told me she looked Amish with the Daisies! I love it.

Big daddy, little date!!!









Cute hair, right??

Birthdays, Birthdays, Birthdays #3

Taylor's turn. 8 & growing. I think all of my kids have had a growth spurt this winter. Every ones pants are short!! Anyhow, as if our own 5 girls aren't enough, we invited over 6 more. PERFECT! Now we're up to 11 females (not including myself or my M.I.L. That would be 13). What a man I have! "What's a few more women in the house?" he says. The girls came home with Taylor right after school, and played hard all afternoon and night, until they finally went to bed (not sleep) at 10pm! I didn't hear them too much after that though. They had to be tired! You could have mistaken me for a Taco Bell worker with how fast and efficient I was whipping out those tacos on our assembly line! Thank goodness for bedtime!!!!!!!!!

Birthdays, Birthdays, Birthdays #2

Mommy's bday. As you can see by the candle, I turned one year older than I was last year! I received beautiful flowers from my hubby & a new perfume from my girls. The yummy chocolate cake was made by my lovely husband, who knows the way to my heart! It was delish.

Birthdays, Birthdays, Birthdays #1

Courtney's party. First sledding, then a basketball game, then the sleepover, which why do they call it a "sleep over" when there is little to no sleep?? Pizza, cake, ice cream, and the Wii was had by all and everyone had fun fun fun.
