Josh turns 29

There is the birthday boy! My mom made him a hot dog cake, because hot dogs are his favorite ( and bacon, yes, he's a real health freak!)

For his party we went got 6 different value menu chicken sandwiches and tried a piece of each and rated them. The verdict..go for church's chicken sandwich it was the winner, Wendys came in second ( but it wasn't spicy) and last place is Jack n the Box. We had a good time but all that mayonaise they put on the chicken sandwiches is disgusting--no wonder I never order them--I would recomend getting it without mayo. Here is a picture of us stuffing our faces.

Flat tire=a clean house

So Josh is always telling me that he wants to teach me how to change a flat tire in case of an emergency. But I kept putting it off, I mean isn't the point of having a husband around to do things like that? Well yesterday morning on my way to work I got a flat tire, luckily I was only about 3/4 a mile from my house. Unfortunately Josh left to work early and was already gone...CRAP! So I parked the car by the mailboxes and walked home. I had to call in a sub for work. The good news is I got lots of cleaning done that I've been needing to do and I got all of my Christmas gifts wrapped. The bad news--besides missing work--was after Josh got off work I had to stand in the rain as Josh explained how to change a flat tire (But he still changed it for me! ) I love him!

Poinsettias and Parties

This weekend the family went to the poinsettia festival. It was free to get in; they had all different types and sizes of poinsettias. Then they took us on a little trackter ride to their poinsettia green house. It was a lot of fun and we all bought some little flowers. The festival inspired mom to go get a real Christmas tree--loves it--so after the festival we went to home depot and got a tree. It smells so yummy!

That night we went to my work Christmas party. They had a photo booth that they made everyone go in and get a picture, so here it is...

I gave my heart to last Christmas

Last Christmas was a total blast. The whole family went to Disney World for 8 days! And then we came home Dec 20th and had Christmas a few days later. I must say that I think Christmas 2007 takes the cake!

Thanks for Black Friday

Thanksgiving was a good time. We went up to the grandparents cabin for our foodfest. We were supposed to have a cookie contest--which Reina and I really did not want to do--but we did it to be nice. So we made a huge cookie pie, which was actually super yummy if I do say so myself. It may have won a place in the contest, except when we got to the cabin there was no contest after all ( How annoying). Now the best part of Thanksgiving is Black Friday. Mom, Reina and I go every year. The top pic is of us at 3am--yes you saw that right--at Khols. It may be really early and lots of standing in line, but it is so worth it in the end. I got a down comforter for 35 bucks, some ulta eyeliner for a buck and some cocktail dresses for 2 dollars! I also got some stuff for Joshy but I can't disclose those items at this time. Anyways I would reccommend trying out Black Friday cause its the best!!!
