Wild Wedding

As you all know, Jed's step-bro-in-law got married and our girls were flower girls. It was the weirdest wedding. It was an open bar and the line was always a mile long. I think there were only a few people who weren't drunk. It is so interesting to be around drunk people. They think they are really witty and cool when they really aren't. The toasts were SO HILARIOUS- only to the toasters- and Jody thought it was fun to see how drunk he could get his dad (Grandpa Joe) - he's like 80. Grandpa Joe kissed me ON THE LIPS 5 times. The fifth time he came up to me puckered up I let him know it was his fifth kiss please let it be the last! Ewwwww! The thing that surprised me the most was the young girls with tattoos. These beautiful girls with elegent dresses on, had tattoos EVERYWHERE. Huge ones on there chests and down there arms. I was shocked by it all... Why are tattoos so appealing? They look terrible and I lectured my girls about it for like an hour after we left.




Jody and Dannell kept telling us how we missed out on the dancing seeing as we left after the dinner. I saw the pictures and all I saw were old women DIRTY dancing with the young single men. It was NOT a pretty sight. I'm so sad my kids weren't there to witness it all...


Anyways, the pictures are cute and La Caille was beautiful. A great place for a white trash wedding.

They're Back

There is something great about a comfy pair of stretch pants... I can't believe they are coming back in style! I just remember sneaking into Mandi's closet one fine day in middle school and "borrowing" her black stretch pants and oversized panda bear sweater and wearing it to school. I felt so cool in that outfit and it was even worth the wrath I took for it when Mandi found out. I think I may be the only one alive that is super excited about this upcoming fashion trend. 1: they are comfy, 2: they are cheap, 3: The oversized sweater covers everything while still looking stylish instead of frumpy (yes it's true) and 4: They are SO FASHION.

Nala

We were going up to Tanner's Flat about a month ago and had to run into Albertsons for some food and firewood. Well, it was Sunday and I know I am OK if I just send Jed into the store with a list while I innocently stay in the car. Well, some lady had a crate full of puppies on the sidewalk for sale and the minute I took the kids over to look at them, I knew we were in trouble. When Jed came out and saw them, Nala was bought and paid for within about 5 minutes. Jed then went back in the store for a kennel and dog food and we were on our way!


She's an American Staffordshire Terrier. She's smart and doesn't shed and the kids love her. But... I should have listened to all of you! She has peed on the floor (super gross), the kids come inside with holes in there clothes after "playing" and she runs through my garden just to torment me when I'm trying to weed. She never touches it unless I'm out there. Then she tears through it as fast as she can while I yell and swear and try to catch her. Jed thinks it's hilarious. YA. I told the kids I was taking her back after she chewed up my sandles, peed on the CARPET, bit Kobe and scratched on the back door until I freaked. They were really sad and I felt bad after I settled down, but she just eggs me on. I know - I should have listened. That's what you get for going shopping on Sunday.
