yes--i am still alive. barely. buried beneath a mountain of pink and green ribbon. been working on wedding invitations and a guest book and a whole lot of other stuff. i would post a few pictures but i can't find them on my computer. finally got photoshop on my mac and now do not know what the heck i am doing! i downloaded some pictures last night and i can't find them. i hate relearning things.

i did have a fun time this weekend scrapping with my friends. it was something i needed and it really made a difference. a nice break. so thanks girls. especially a big old shout out to shanna for breaking my eardrums! what's that? did you say something hooker?

anyway, speaking of breaks, david needed one too and took taylor and carson to cali with him. this leads up to my chuckle of the day. so dave calls me this morning to tell me that he is taking the girls swimming. later this afternoon he calls me to tell me that taylor forgot her top (or bottom) to her swimsuit and she was in tears so they went to buy her a new swimsuit. at the mall. they look in a million stores--nothing. so finally they are in this one store and taylor finds one she likes (oh yeah--it's not only that they couldn't find a suit--taylor is extremely picky about her clothes!) taylor tells david that the bathing suit is a little expensive. david thinks that this probably means around $50. david tells me "it was kind of expensive". how much? so i start guessing how much. $130. for a 12 year olds bathing suit. so i ask--what store was it? "some boutique i guess." what swimsuit was it? what brand? um yeah--juicy couture! so i say--have you heard of TARGET? um, hello! i think the best part was that he had to spend the whole day in the mall with 2 tweens shopping. welcome to my world my friend!!

so the moral of this story. don't send a man to do a woman's job. and if you're going to buy juicy couture then please let it be on sale or for your wife...L

Omigosh! I'd kick his butt. And make her work hers off in payment, cause you know she knows better than to take advantage of Dad like that (nice job, by the way...)! ;)

Has the eardrum healed yet?

I think that story is too cute! I love that Taylor got the juicy suit because she now has good taste and she never asks for anything anyways, poor thing. I love her, that is soooo cute dad took them shopping. Well, I love you, I still have like 20 invitations I haven't sent, oops:) loves. In the words of Nacho Libre, "you are thee beesssttt"
