A day full of crazies

For those who know my neighborhood you're probably getting a good laugh right now because this won't surprise you at all. My day started and ended on high notes, but in between was another story. I guess the day started with my crazy neighbor. I know I know- they guy is a complete nut job. Not only has he put a trampoline into the front of his already crowded and tacky front yard, but the thing is a death trap. There is no fence around it, it's unlevel, has no protective covering around the springs, and is so close to other things in his yard that if someone were to fall off they could get seriously hurt- bad! Of course one of his daughters had to come up to me and my girls and talked about them jumping on it with her and right away I told her no way that it wasn't safe at all.   

So onto the next part. I was driving home from my dr appt, which by the way is out in the valley, and see a crazy bumper sticker: My child was bailed by affordable bail bonds.... um excuse me what?!! Since when is that something to be proud of?? Is that supposed to be the new "honor roll" sticker... k now that was just odd as can be.

Then of course I didn't want the leftovers that I had made the night before so I drove over to Subway before YW that evening. I pull up to see the 2 employees outside smoking and 1 comes inside. The one who comes inside proceeds to talk to me about my preg because she is preg as well and found out on vday... when her boyfriend bought her alcohol for valentine's day... She then goes on and on about how she luckily took a test and didn't drink, but how much she loves drinking, etc. etc. Well I guess at least she gave up drinking to be pregnant, but what about smoking.... ugh people sometimes just don't think about things too well do they

And finally when I pull up to church there is a random lady that nobody has ever seen before sitting against the church building. She is talking to herself... and burping.... loudly... Apparently she had no clue where she was and that other people were near her at all... or maybe she just didn't care.

Oh and I can't just end it there can I?!! I have to talk about my other crazy lady- the one who just lives on the other side of my house who we will now officially call the crazy cat lady. Don't worry- her name is well deserved. Within the past few months I have noticed her wandering around our block and going to certain houses to feed cats- how do I know she's doing this? Well she's carrying around cat food! Not only that but stray cats are coming to her back door, which is only about 15 feet from my fence line. There are always cats in my yard and I always find cat poopie in my flower beds and recently in my garden- NOT COOL AT ALL! Tim worked on getting the fences fixed and putting up extra lattice, but it hasn't stopped the cats at all. In fact when we go outside to get the cats out of our yard they just hop the fence and go right to the crazy cat lady's house. So I'm off to call the Humane Society and see what we can do about getting stray cats removed.

Hope your days aren't as crazy as mine =)

Hannah's 1st haircut

My little doodies has been needing something serious to be done to her hair lately. Her hair is always in her face and she won't keep her hair clips in for very long. She even pulls those rubber bands out- ouch!
So I finally did something about it. Ta-da!!!! Mama cut bangs on her. I think they may be a tad short, but it's ok they'll grow out. And don't worry I haven't touched her cute lil curly cues that are growing in on the sides and back.

Balls of fun =)

 A few days ago for FHE we changed things up a little bit... and it helped that mommy messed up dinner and ended up with undercooked chicken, lol. So we made a complete night of it and finally went to the Milk Bottle for dinner. It was super yummy. Then we took the girls bowling for their first time. It was super cute to watch them and they had these 6lb balls that the girls were able to carry... roll not really but Tim helped out with that.

I loved Hailey's expression every time she was able to knock down a few pins

Graduation day

My sis, bro and I. Yes I'm huge- and swollen too!

Hannah literally laid down on the cement with everyone around her

Whole family pic

My little brother graduated from high school on the 10th!! We all went to celebrate with him and it turned into quite the long day, especially for my kiddos. Started with stake conference and then we had a short break and were able to let the girlies run around at home for a bit. Then we were off to meet the family for lunch and then off to the graduation ceremony, which was LONG! I was impressed with how short each of the speakers kept their talks, but that still didn't seem to help much. The girls did ok but as you can see from the above pic poor Hannah was D-O-N-E... yep she didn't get a nap that day. But yay for my brother- now on to bigger and better things in life. I'm so proud of him. He graduated with honors and is off to Eastern next year.

Hannah turned 2!!

I just can't believe this lil munchkin is 2 already?!! It still feels like just the other day when we brought her home from the hospital. She has really turned into a feisty little one and is just as busy as Hailey was at that age, lol. She talks in sentences and most of the time we can understand what she's saying. She really is quite the chatterbox too- there usually isn't a moment in the car when she isn't talking and pointing things out to me... the choo-choo train, a plane, a doggy, a firetruck (it's not usually a firetruck =), etc. She's very mentally exhausting, but I love how observant she is.

We had a whole ton of family come over a few days after her bday to celebrate. Only did cake and ice cream- there was no way I was cooking for almost 30 people being this far along in my pregnancy. Hah! Cooking for just my family of 4 has become quite the task lately. Anyways here are a few pics from the whole shabam.

More finished projects- aka nesting =)

Before pic of the chairs. The one on the left is just a single and the one on the right is a set of 4

I'm pretty proud of my work =) I had to fix the chairs structurally, everything that goes into painting them (ie- sand, prime, paint, clear coat. etc.) and then of course recover the cushions

Chairs w/ the newly painted table as well. I'm in love with the color of the table now. The color I painted it last year was just way too close to the color of my walls so now it stand out much much better

First time fishing.

Not sure why this looks all distorted...??

And the day wouldn't be complete without a lil baby bum from Hannah =)

Hannah spent most of her time playing on the beach with mama

 Ever since Christmas when Hailey saw her first little girls fishing pole in the White Elephant she has been literally begging and talking non-stop about going fishing with her daddy. And I'm ecstatic because I'm not a fan of fishing at all so this will be something fun for her to share with her daddy. On Memorial Day we went out to Priest Lake and spent the first part of the day at Indian Creek with Tim's family- played at the beach, Tim rode his dirtbike, and a lil ice cream, and then we drove around to the other side of the lake to my grandparent's place and met up with my dad and the girls got to go fishing and play around in the sand some more.
