Aliyah's party



So for Aliyah, her theme was Ladybugs! It was cute! We painted little ladybugs on everyone's cheeks and gave them antennas. I made 5 different types of pizzas and had mac n cheese(kid food ya hear). They played pin the spot on the bug and a bug race that didn't work so well. The kids really just ran around and played themselves. I was a little tired so I didn't even care that we didn't have more games! I let Aliyah have her own cake and let her at it! She had fun being around everyone!

The cakes turned out great! The middle one was especially for Aliyah! What a treat!


The pin the dot was so funny to watch. Lolo tried pinning one on Hunter(see above) and Jasmine did really good considering she was also blind folded. Aliyah really didn't dig in to the cake she more just played with it. Jace and Jojo finished it off by digging into the cakes with their faces! What hams!

Jasmine's Party


It was a hit!Since we were away from family we had all her new friends we met out her come. Grama Donna came out this week and so she was here for it. A little piece of home helped. We had Corndogs, homemade mac n cheese and homemade pizza for food. They played the hokie pokie, limbo, the chicken dance, and hit the pinata, and then we sang happy birthday, ate cake and ice cream, and opened her presents. All the kids really enjoyed the easy games, I did too, because all I had to do was turn on the music! I made a thrown for her, which I never got a good picture of, but you can see it behind the boys in the picture above.

The Castle Cake



I love making cakes, so here is the cake that I made for my princess. It was a bit easier then I thought it would be. You just have to make sure you plan ahead for it. Everyone loved it and thought how cool.

This cinderella dress is one of the presents she got at her party.What a pretty princess!

The Start of the birthday madness!

OK so I know that I haven't written in a while, but June is our birthday month! I have been so busy preparing for parties. This is how it looks:
June 15~Jasmine's ( she just turned 3!)
June 20~ Aliyah's (she will be 1!)
June 29~ My birthday! and yes I am making my own cake! Don't ask how old.

So I have lots of different pics and video of Jasmine's birthday, which I will add. the video might take me longer because I am not the best at those.


The night before her birthday I had Cinderella call her! It was cute she loved it. 
it only cost 2.49 for Disney to do it. They have different characters too. Here is the website DisneyEnchantedCalls.com 
I video taped her, I tried to put in on speaker but, it is still hard to hear but her facial expression is priceless. Aliyah just happened to start coughing. Anyways, this was the kick off to her awesome birthday!

Tagged by my Sister

Ok so here's the deal...I got tagged by my sister to list my 3 joys, 3 fears, 3 obsessions, 3 goals, 3 random facts about me, and then I have to tag 5 other people(if I even have 5 other friends!) if I tag you I will leave you a message on your blog so you know to look and do. So here it goes...

3 Joys

1. Seeing my girls having fun and smiling!

2. Being around friends and family.

3. Shopping (even if its just grocery shopping)



3 Fears


1. Not having enough money

2.Either my family or I getting in a serious car accident.

3.My girls going through life not knowing their true worth.



3 obsessions/ collections

1. I am obsessed with Stephenie Meyer's books! Twilight, New Moon,Eclipse
and her new one The Host! I am sure I will love Breaking Dawn when it comes out. Love, Love, Love! I even dream about them. Can't wait for the movie Twilight!



2.Vacuuming! I seriously like to vacuum atleast 3 times a day.

3.Working out.




3 Goals

1.Having a body like Fergie from Black Eyed Peas.(She surprisingly is my body type).

2.Trademark my style of indoor cycling, because it IS DIFFERENT.

3.Accept that people live their own movie, so don't try to change it. I can however chose to be a memorable character in it. (I have the lead role in mine anyways!)


3 random/surprising facts about myself

1. My passion growing up was Acting in movies. It still is, but having a family takes priority. As I see it I am in a live movie of my life everyday.

2.I haven't eaten red meat since 1992.

3.If I see a bug in my house I can't squish it. I grab any sort of house cleaner or perfume and spray it to death. ( I tell my daughter its sleeping and we throw it outside so they can "wake up".)

And Another thing...


Most of you know we don't drink tap water. In utah we would buy a gallon then go back to the store and refill it at one of the reverse osmosis machines for like .33cents. They don' t believe in that out here. In fact I have asked SEVERAL people where I could do that and no one knows what I am talking about! That concept does NOT exist! Crazy. It can get pricey to buy a gallon of water for a dollar when we are use to using 14 gallons a week!
One more thing... when buying meat you have to be careful, they seriously sell meat like past the due date, not just like one or two days , but my friend bought one and she thought it smelled funny so she looked at the date and it had expired A MONTH earlier! I personally don't trust buying meat anywhere but Costco. Good ol' Costco. I have come to love so much more living in Utah.
Ok so I am done with my little complaints. I really think it is interesting how it can be so different on the other side of the states.

I am in a land of Zoolanders!


OK , so all you know I am in Jersey right now, I feel like I am in the Zoolander movie! Not because there are stupid beautiful male models, but because I feel everyone has the fear of turning left! It is truly annoying! They have a barrier in the middle of the road like a highway, so if you want to go to any stores or streets on your left you cant! Once every 5- 10 miles it has a light with a big sign saying NO LEFT TURN!( the light is there for the people getting off of one of the many freeways, I have broken the law doing what the sign says not to do! Them Zoolanders honk like mad when I try to do a forbidden left! I just scream at them! I just need to find out how those righties function on life without any lefts. How do they get to those places? I am just so fustrated! Blah, Blah, Blah.

Before it falls off...


I wanted to show you again my thumb. Ugly,huh? It looks like it is going to fall off. If you look closely(if you dare) you can see the nail is detached, I actually took a pin and cleaned some of the dried blood from the hole. Gross, I know.
Atleast I know it's come to the end of the blackness. Gotta look at the brighter side!
