I am old

I am old. Gone are the days of painting the town red and making a class the next morning. The days of party after party and still room to study and look amazing for the next party have disappeared. I am old.
Last night Jaxon and I went to Seattle for our lovely friend Kaite's Birthday. Between getting everything done before I got our sitter and actually getting ready to go I was tired by the time we got on the ferry. Almost 2 hours before our dinner reservation at P.F. Changs. I loved going out with my friends but I had anxiety the whole way "Do I still look like a Lesbian?" If so "Would I at least be a hot one? Am I over dressed?" I was. "Is Jaxon having fun?" He was worried he wouldn't but he did. "Are the kids okay? Or IS SAVANNAH okay?" Everything was fine and wonderful but we got home around 12:30 and you would have thought the sun was coming up already. I got home from taking Savannah home and Jax was like "How you doin?" And I don't even think I responded. I apparently bathed, brushed teeth and attempted Scripture study but I fell asleep with my face drooling on 3 Nephi! I don't even remember taking her home!! I DON'T EVEN DRINK! THIS IS ALL ABOUT BEING TIRED!
Today is the pathetic part. I am so tired I shouldn't drive or create a declarative sentence. Although I did go to the gym this morning but only cause I fear Shannon. My poor kids actually ate 3 things from a box today. IN ONE DAY! Cereal, Mac and Cheese and cheese and crackers. I don't think anyone of us ate anything that should be consumed by humans and my house looks like we've been hit by a tornado. So, by all means come on over. I am in a bathrobe. Jax and Korbin are running around in boxers eating junk and Miss. Allie is eating anything she finds in the pantry. I am old and it sucks. Come on youth I know I had fun with you but couldn't you have stayed a little longer! I'm only 26!!

The poll

My recent poll about how one might be doing if viewing themselves from High School standpoint is surprising. I cant think of anyone that I know of that reads this blog that 'Sucks and have totally let themselves go' Who are these people? How do I know you? I think its great that so many of you think you are so with-it. That's beautiful. I think I'm somewhere in the middle. I never expected the life I now lead so in a sense I would be very pleased but shocked to see where I am today if I saw myself 10 years ago. I always thought I would have money. Lots of it. I never saw myself actually getting sealed 5-6 years AFTER I got married. I never saw kids. I never saw a jiggly body but I did see myself happy and probably married (and 10 years ago I was dating Jax so I thought I'd marry him as well but that somehow he'd be wealthy- I obviously did not do the math) and he would be a return missionary.
But, NOTHING happened like I planned and at the end of the day Ill take my chubby legs because I do still have two of them and Ill take my stinky kids because I love them to pieces and Ill take my poor husband who is the love of my life and Ill tell my 16 year old self to go to *$#!. Because today Ive turned out pretty alright.

Some of my favorite things!

I thought it would be nice to show a few things that I love in our house. There were a lot but I narrowed it down to my VERY FAVORITES! These would be thing things I would miss the most if I lost them in a fire or something. But I did throw a few of the kids in here, I would most certainly get them out first in a fire though!!

THE BOYS!!

Last Saturday I was attempting to achieve World's Greatest Mom and in doing so I took Korbin and his two friends Tyler and Derek Potter to Castle Park, Cold Stone and the car wash (of which Korbin was the ONLY excited one) then we got home and pulled out bikes to go to our park. I was fun and active and had a great time. The only down-fall was when we pulled up to the park and Korbin and Tyler say 'You look like a dad' And I reply 'No I don't I have make-up on' and Tyler smoothly snickers 'Yeah... a dad with make-up on hehehe.' Good thing I really like this kid! So, off we went in a fury (because that's how small men move when excited) and we swung and slid and played hide and seek and got full to the brim with bizarre combinations of sugar and the ice cream shop. I was wiped out but it was a great day. I even have the pictures to show off!!!

Pink has nothing on me- KISS IT ROCK STAR!!!

So the Lesbian hair is KILLING me!!! Yet, I like how quick it is that I might just switch to the other side or become a rock star. I love you JACKIE! Jackie sent me a picture of Pink (whom I love anyway) and said that this look would be great. Not to church but out on the town. Here it is! Jax and I went to the movies and I tried it out. I kinda feel liberated or something! I am totally out of my comfort zone which I feel is odd because I never really had a comfort zone. I guess I do, I told her that I'm much more of a Chanel and diamonds kinda lady. But tonight Pink has a little competition because IM ROCKIN THIS TOWN!! WATCH OUT BABE!
